Fitness First...

Exercise- you get tired just saying the word! Its very hard to get going because you keep procrastinating that you're going start tomorrow, then tomorrow comes and becomes tomorrow and so the cycle continues. I've taken up jogging and I must say the last time I did any form of exercise was a couple of months back when I played hockey at school. My body feels like I have been run over by a truck. It has become a mission going up a flight of stairs. Being fit doesn't necessarily mean that you look buff and have abs of steel. It simply means that your body is in shape and that you don't get heart palpitations just going up stairs! The saying: "Healthy body Healthy mind" is very true, when you keep your body fit you find that your brain works at optimum level. Not only do you have a smashing body, but it does wonders for your skin because sweating opens up your pores and allows your skin to breathe.While exercising you sweat a lot and that means that you are losing liquids and those liquids need replacing, so drink lots and lots of water. It is very hard to maintain an exercise regime because of how busy we are. You don't need a lot of time, just an hour a day will make all the difference. Keep to the same time everyday so that your body can get used to it,  for example 5 pm to 6 pm EVERYDAY. Don't miss a day or keep on changing the times around as this will demotivate you. Another contributing factor is the company that you will be exercising with. If they themselves are not on the same page as you then they will bring you down to their level. Associate with people who have the same mindset as you. Trust me it will make all the difference. Just because you will be out jogging does't mean you should wear dull attire. Put some effort in your choice of exercise gear, if you don't have any that's an excuse to go shopping. =)

Don't forget that you wont see results in a day(though that would be ideal), take it one step at a time. Also don't start with sprinting because your body won't be used to the sudden strain you are putting on it. Start with power walking and once you've got that going you can start jogging slowly but surely.

You'll thank me later once you start reaping the fruits. As for now, go put on your runners and hit the road.

From a Man's Perspective...

Cheating: a topic many dread yet have so much to say about it. A couple of days ago I was having a chat with a friend of mine(male) and he made some very interesting viewpoints. When I asked about cheating, this was his reply: "Its not right at all because the Bible says 'Do unto others as you have them do unto you" I don't understand why someone would do something like that to someone they claim they love. There are many things that could happen to you like getting killed. I've actually lost a friend to cheating and that really hurts because it is unnecessary for a person to lose their life over something so stupid" As our conversation continued it took a kinky turn, last I recall we were talking about the downside of cheating and the next thing he was telling me about the upsides. He said: "You get to have a lot of fun because when you do something you don't want to be caught doing, the adrenalin rush excites you! The fact that it is going to get you into trouble makes it more...eish its indescribable. The lust is uncontrollable, you find yourself indulging in the forbidden fruit. The list of reasons behind cheating is endless. It could be that you are not satisfied in your current relationship, there is just that something that is lacking. Or the man or woman could have an unquenchable thirst. Some may cheat to boost their egos. So I went on to ask him if he would ever cheat on his current girlfriend. He said the following: "It would depend, on the way she treats me because if I'm not happy and don't get any action in the bedroom(or anywhere else) then I will gladly look for it elsewhere. There is a golden rule when it comes to cheating-If you're gonna cheat DON'T GET CAUGHT! To this reply I was gobsmacked, my next question was: What would you do if the tables were turned? My dear friend laughed, then was silent for a good 3 minutes and then said: "Oh well...I would...it would devastate me because its just not cool man, I would feel like my dignity has been lowered and I have been betrayed and taken for a fool. I would feel unimportant and doubt my capabilities as a man. I have an appetite for attractive women and I am easily tempted. I try to hide it but that's just the way it is.

Well then, I hope you can now decipher between the bad(and the very good) things about cheating that my dear friend has mentioned. Lets keep it clean folks

You are what you wear...or are you?

Have you ever noticed how when you wake up not feeling 100% your outfit will give it away? Or how when you put on that killer outfit you feel as though you can conquer the universe? A lot can be read from a woman's clothing. A typical example is a nun, you know she's a nun by the clothing she wears. A prostitute? Well, the clothing or lack there of gives it away. There are many women who wear short attire, but does that mean they should be classified as slutty? Yes there is a fine line between short and barely there, but its still there. I am a firm believer in the saying: If you've got it, flaunt it! You don't want to be an old granny wearing mini skirts because you didn't wear them in your youth. There are many women who go through a mid-life crisis and just don't know how to dress for their age. There are those exceptions though, where you find a sexy 60 year old who still has the body to rock a mini. Its not about how the clothes fit, but about how you fit them. Its you who gives your outfits personality, not vice versa. Once you feel confident in what you're wearing, you could be wearing a potato sack for Pete's sake and still look good because of the confidence you exude. This does not mean that just because you have the confidence you can now go around wearing potato sacks, put in an effort to look good so that the confidence will be automatic. Comfort plays a major role in the clothes you wear. It is virtually impossible yo feel comfortable in a 2 cm skirt, heels and a cleavage-bearing crop top. Know what to put together and how. You don't need to have a lot of clothes to put together a fabulous outfit. You can mix and match with the little that you have, its all about creativity and using what is under your hair. An outfit can give off an impression- a good one or a bad one. Let your inner Princess shine through the clothes that you wear.

Every woman needs...

Every woman has that desire inside of them for a man in whose arms she can find her peace, her world, her solace. Someone who can ease all her pain by just one hug and one kiss on her forehead. There is a child in her heart that needs to be pampered and loved. She always wants someone who can look into her eyes and read her thoughts and understand her silence. She will never give up on the man in whose arms she finds her heaven, because she can and will do anything for the man whom she loves and trusts. It is only when you've been in an unappreciative relationship that you realize what a good man feels like, and how it feels to be treated like a lady. It is only then that you start to notice the finer details and stop worrying about the bigger picture, for it is those finer details that amount to creating the very picture. Every woman needs someone who they wake up 3am in the morning just to have a chat. Someone so close to them that listening to each others heartbeats is bliss. Where sitting in silence, so much is said. It takes a special man to be this way for a woman. Every woman needs a man who can not only be a lover but a friend. Where they can spend hours laughing at nonsensical things. They play together like kids and fight like siblings. Once a woman finds this man she will start to glow, not that she is using a new cream but because she is filled with so much joy in her heart that it shines through and she can't help but glow.  Every woman wants a man who will boast about her, and who is not afraid to say: "That is MY woman", one who loves her so much that he would go to the store just to buy feminine products for her. After all a King only bows to his Queen.
