			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>
<p>Taking the right Teen Career Quiz will point you in the direction of Jobs that may be a best fit for your Personality Style. When you are trying to figure out what you want to do with the rest of your life, pay close attention to what things you like to do and do not like to do. This is something you can use to guide you on your Career Path to the right career choice. You do not want to get yourself hung up in a Career Mismatch.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>When I joined the Military, I was tested for my working aptitudes and transferable skills. The test placed me into a Clerical and Administrative position, because it matched to my aptitudes and capabilities best. The Job was what I liked to do, and especially something I could do well &#8211; It fit.</p>
<h2>Self Help</h2>
<p>When I was Discharged from the Armed Services, I went into Construction right away &#8211; Big Mistake. I never liked it, but stayed because of the money and benefits. It was not who I was. I hated it &#8211; I got myself trapped into one big Career Blunder. This is exactly what you need to do. Not get trapped or necessarily join the Military, but find out who you are. It is your job to find out what your true calling, or ideal career is.</p>
<p>I know that it can be confusing when it comes to making a career choice that is supposed to last the rest of your life. It is a big responsibility. There is not much room for error. Just know that no matter what career you choose, you may change your mind later. Even in College, it is normal to Change your Major at least once.</p>
<p>Statistics show that half of those with jobs end up not liking their careers at some point. And to top that, people usually change careers a few times during their lives. Young and Old change their minds about their Careers. Sometimes, this is the way people eventually find their Dream Jobs. They do it by testing the job waters. They work at this job a while, then at that job. They quit because there is some quality about the company, or the job they do not like, and then search for another job. Eventually, they gain enough experience and insight into themselves, and finally know what things they like and do not like in a job. Then, when that particular job comes along that blends in with the preferred skills they like using every day, they then know they have found their ideal career.</p>
<p>Questions to ask yourself -</p>
<p>What Careers interest you?<br />What things would you like and not like doing in a job?.<br />What things fascinate you?<br />What do you do as a Hobby?<br />Do you have any Special Interests that could be turned into a Job?<br />What do you like to think about?<br />What do you find yourself daydreaming about?<br />The question is &#8211; How do you find out who you are, so that you can know what career is right for you? What we want to find out here, is who you are in relation to a compatible Career Choice. If you find a career cluster you fit into, then you can zero in on that particular job within the cluster you think you would enjoy being in.</p>
<p>For example, if the Career Cluster is Electronics, one needs to narrow it down even further. What kind of electronics do you prefer? Do you want to Repair Computers, or Design the Entire Computer as a Computer Engineer ready for Manufacture? Would you rather work for the FBI putting together electronic surveillance equipment, or assemble Motherboards in a Factory? It is all up to you what you want to do, depending upon your skills, education, training and abilities.</p>
<p>It is theorized, that if you have the same personality and interests as one in a certain job who likes his job, you will probably like that job too.</p>
<p>If you are inclined toward Art, Music and Writing, you should further explore and pursue these areas. When you take a Teen Quiz that inventories your job interests and career personality, your working style preferences will be matched to certain career jobs. These Occupations will be those known to attract and retain people with your particular personality.</p>
<p>You may be more of a hands-on type of person, and may still be interested in Art, but maybe your creations will require Welding your artistic model together for display. You may have the artistic inclination to make a masterpiece out of metal, but you will have to acquire the manual ability to Weld, through additional Training.</p>
<p>Are you into Scientific Research? You may have a Mind for Math and formulas. A Teen Quiz can help guide you to those careers that may be the best fit for your abilities and personality style.</p>
<p>The Teen Quiz may suggest Careers you never thought about. Consider these and explore &#8211; Visit people who have these jobs, and ask them what the job is like, and how they got into the career. You may start out with a job idea before you take the test, and end up with choices totally unrelated, that you would like doing just as well. Try to Keep an open mind, so you do not miss any potential opportunities &#8211; They can show up when you least expect them.</p>
<p>Know that You definitely fit inside some job, somewhere. The job exists that is perfect for your personality, interests and skills. Unless you have Transferable skills, you may have to receive further training and education in order to be qualified to apply for that job. This is true for those with little or no experience in the new field they wish to break into, no matter what their age.</p>
<p>For example, I enjoy thinking about different things, rearranging my words, and typing my thoughts out. Those in my past would often mention how it seemed I would Dwell on things too much, or refer to me as Quote &#8211; The Thinker. I was not too amused. But, now I feel I have put my aptitude to positive, good use.</p>
<p>I never fit my Second Career together until recently. I now make pages for my Web site, write Career and Teen Quiz articles online, and am working on a book. Just like me, you have the Capability to fit all your abilities, skills, interests, aptitudes and values together, and Discover which career will match.</p>
<p>Remember, that no matter what age we are, that most of the time, we still can get the education and training required to get into that particular Career Choice of our dreams. It is almost never too early to begin planning for your Future Career, nor too late to change careers and search for a new one. The first step in planning for your first career, is taking a Teen Quiz.</p>

<p>Generous donations often ensure a home, education and better health for the underprivileged and the impoverished. Though a large contribution always makes a bigger difference, the little contributions that we can afford to make regularly help many organizations to sustain their long term alleviation programs. Most charity organizations offer an easy, convenient and hassle free donation process for the donors. This is achieved by the provision of filling online charity donation forms. Once you have decided to donate in charity to a particular organization, all that is required of you is to follow a very simple procedures. That would entail only the filling up of a simple donation form. Of course, the contents of the charity donation forms vary from one organization to the other.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>Some organizations would ask you to specify how you would like your funds to be utilized. Also, if it is an international organization, you might be asked to specify which part of the world you would like your donation to reach. You could also ask for your money to be put in an ongoing project being run by the organization. You would be given the choice to make the online donations through PayPal, write a check, or pay with a credit card.</p>
<h2>Article Submission</h2>
<p>However, there are certain precautions to be exercised while filling online donation forms. Make sure that the forms are hosted on servers that are hundred percent secure so that all information that you have entered, for instance your credit card number, is protected by the highest level of security. To ensure this, you may just have to check the credibility of the organization you are donating to. Most authorized charitable donation organizations will ensure that your information is securely protected.</p>

<p>Among the different states in the U.S. there are some states that make it a point to provide their citizens with a wide selection of sources from which their citizens can again access to information on criminal records.  Usually, these states do so because of the large number of rims and individuals who need this kind of information. One good example of such a state is California, wherein the people of California can expect to have at least three sources of criminal records from state authorities.  As a result, the people of California are given convenient and practical ways to access the criminal records of people. Another very good example of such as state is Oklahoma, as the people of Oklahoma are also provided with at least three sources of information on criminal records.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>Sources of information on criminal records in Oklahoma</p>
<h2>Online Degree</h2>
<p>One very good source of information on criminal records in Oklahoma is the web site of the Ohio Department of Corrections (www.doc.state.ok.us) where people can gain access to two offender information databases.  These two databases include the database that contain information on habitual and aggravated sex offenders and the database on other current and former inmates of the state.  The usual information provided by these databases include the name of the offender, his physical description, his sentence information, and the facility where he is incarcerated.  Another good source of information on criminal records in Oklahoma is the web site of the Oklahoma District Court Records (www.odcr.com) where people are given access to both criminal and civil cases information, which include the names of the parties, the status of the case, and the date the case was filed.</p>
<p>Another good source of criminal records in Oklahoma is the web site of the Oklahoma State Courts Network (www.oscn.net/applications/oscn/casesearch.asp), where information on criminal, civil, probate, traffic, and other cases are provided to the public. In addition to these, information on licenses and tax liens is also provided on this web site.</p>
<p>Across the different states in the U.S., Oklahoma is a good example of a state that offers its citizens with a wide selection of sources of information on criminal records, which people can access for various reasons.   This is because the state government of the state together with other state authorities, which includes the judiciary provide the citizens of Oklahoma at least three sources, especially on the Internet, of information on criminal records.</p>

<p>What do you really want to achieve in life? That&#8217;s a good question, isn&#8217;t it!</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>If you go through life not knowing what you want, you&#8217;ll have no direction to go in. You&#8217;ll settle for what you currently have and you won&#8217;t ever be looking to exercise your infinite human potential to ultimately better your life.</p>
<h2>Self Improvement</h2>
<p>Through books and other learning platforms, I&#8217;ve come up with 14 categories that you could and should set your goals in if you wish to accumulate the highest possible levels of success in life. In no particular order, these categories are:</p>
<p>1) Family<br />
<br />2) Career<br />
<br />3) Health<br />
<br />4) Financial<br />
<br />5) Education<br />
<br />6) Recreation<br />
<br />7) Charity<br />
<br /> <img src='http://writingselfhelp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif' alt='8)' class='wp-smiley' /> Adventure<br />
<br />9) Travel<br />
<br />10) Romance<br />
<br />11) Relationships<br />
<br />12) Spiritual<br />
<br />13) Contribution<br />
<br />14) Material Possessions</p>
<p>If you want to have a well-rounded life, you cannot move in one certain direction without attending to the other ones. Many people may think that money is everything! This is definitely not the case and can be justified when I tell you that a number of millionaires actually commit suicide because they do not have other areas of their life well-developed (and are therefore unhappy individuals).</p>
<p>I want you to sit down right now, and pick out a few things (at least 5) that you want to attain or achieve in the future. Once you&#8217;ve decided on what these things are, write out at least 5 reasons for WHY you want it, and assign a date that you will work to accomplish it by. Then, start taking action!</p>
<p>When you&#8217;re thinking of a goal, think big! You do not need to know how you&#8217;re going to get there; all you need to know is where you&#8217;re headed and that you will indeed make it.</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;re ready, become enthused by your new goals, and take continuous, forward-advancing courses of action.</p>
<p>&#8220;Take the first step in faith. You don&#8217;t have to see the whole staircase. Just take the first step.&#8221; &#8211; Martin Luther King Jr.</p>
<p>Decide on what you want, take action, and start living the life that will lead you toward your wildest desires! Anything&#8217;s possible!</p>

<p>Is there a way to do a free phone number trace? Yes, and it&#8217;s probably easier than you think. In this article I&#8217;m going to show you a tactic I have used to do a free phone number trace, and then will show you an alternative if the free method doesn&#8217;t work.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>I was getting calls, sometimes two or three times a day, either very early in the morning or late at night. I usually was not around my cell phone during these times so I didn&#8217;t pick it up. But, then there were a few times where I did see the calls coming in, but the number looked completely foreign to me, even the area code was one I&#8217;d never seen before.</p>
<h2>Article Marketing</h2>
<p>I didn&#8217;t want to be hassled by a telemarketer or some stranger, so I ignored the calls hoping they&#8217;d go away. They didn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>So I found a way to do a free phone number trace. On a lark, I went online to the Google search engine and typed in the number. I could hardly believe what I got back as results. There were actual postings from a slew of other individuals who had received the same calls from the same number. They had dug up information and posted the name and address of the company that the calls were emanating from.</p>
<p>So, one simple Google search and I had a free phone number trace that gave me a ton of info on the incoming calls. Not surprisingly, soon after the calls ceased after someone probably took action on them.</p>
<p>Alternative Method:</p>
<p>What if your Google search doesn&#8217;t bring up any free phone number trace results? Then the next option is to go to a reverse phone lookup website service, and simply type in the number on their homepage and let them do the work. You&#8217;ll receive actual names and addresses plus more info on who exactly is calling you. This works great for calls from individuals like ex-boyfriend or girlfriends, annoying neighbors or enemies trying to crank call you, or even long lost friends and family who fail to leave messages for whatever reason.</p>
<p>  Free Phone Number Trace</p>
<p>Here is an excellent website where you can do a phone number trace and get back full information on who&#8217;s calling you and from where &#8211; <a target="_new" href="http://TracePhone.info" rel="nofollow,external">http://TracePhone.info</a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s great to have a service you can use to screen your calls and erase the mystery of who is trying to call you. Check out &#8211; <a target="_new" href="http://TracePhone.info" rel="nofollow,external">http://TracePhone.info</a></p>

<p>The first article marketing idea I would recommend and my favorite is a how-to-article. This will definitely establish you as and expert as well produce traffic to your web site. The only thing is you must do some research and learn the topic you are going to write about. The last thing you want to do is make things up and tell people to do certain things that will not be effective for them and produce the results they are seeking.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>The second article marketing idea I would recommend is a review article . With this type of article truly, you should never run out of things to write about. Also these type of articles will produce results as well . You can write a review on your company, another company, a product, system, marketing tool or whatever else you can find to write a review about. All you have to do is a little research. Now some people are lazy and probably won&#8217;t do this or the previous article idea because it involves research but understand becoming successful online isn&#8217;t easy. If it was, everyone would be successful and wealthy. Just suck it up and get to it. It will pay off. I promise.</p>
<h2>Article Marketing</h2>
<p>The third article marketing idea is a problem and solution article. This one is pretty simple. Just think of a problem, it can be one you had or someone else. Then provide the solution to your problem or the person you wrote about&#8217;s problem. Make sure the solution actually works. Do not write about something you have not done yourself, done thorough research on or has not come from a credible source. This is another great a easy way to create traffic and establish you as an expert in your field.</p>
<p>Hopefully this article has giving you some value you can take to the bank. Also make sure you keep a look out for part 2 of this article. Take care and take action.</p>

<p>There comes a time in everyone&#8217;s life when constipation rears its ugly head.  The same holds true for dogs, unfortunately.  Lack of exercise and proper diet can lead to bouts of constipation (sound familiar?). While you may seek a variety of ways to &#8220;eliminate&#8221; this problem in your own life, let&#8217;s explore some home remedies for dog constipation which can be utilized in the eventuality it occurs in theirs.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>As mentioned earlier, a proper diet and exercise are key components in ensuring your dog has the ability to move his bowels as often as necessary.  House dogs usually need to be walked twice a day while maintaining a proper diet. If your dog becomes constipated, one method to alleviate this problem is by adding one to two teaspoons of bran to his meal. This allows for extra moisture in the stool.</p>
<h2>Article Submission</h2>
<p>Another method to soften the stool would be to add psyllium (Metamucil in the adult world) to his diet.  Half a teaspoon twice a day, in addition to drinking plenty of water, will suffice. A third option would be mineral oil.  This may be used in cases where there is a large build-up of hard stool. Two teaspoons, twice a day should be added to his meal, but for only a week. There are several other steps you can take to alleviate your dog&#8217;s constipation.  Keep his food moist by adding a bit of water. If your dog is getting on in years, add some raw meat and vegetables to his diet.</p>
<p>There are certain signs which can alert you to potential problems, and for which you can take immediate steps. Long hair on dogs can cause feces to become entangled; therefore, keep your dog properly groomed. Dogs tend to eat everything in sight, ensure no bones or other material has been ingested. Just as we experience constipation due to certain medications, dogs are no exception. Psychological stress is another indicator relating to constipation.</p>
<p>While it has been suggested that all breeds and dogs of any age are prone to constipation, there are other aspects which you may need to consider, and for which many dog owners are culpable.  Never feed your dog from the dinner table. While you may indulge the dog with a few scraps here and there, you are contributing to his constipation.</p>
<p>Foods that contain flour, sugar, rice, dairy and high protein are the main source of the problem. Ice cream, cookies, bread, chocolate, or other unhealthy food items can cause your dog unnecessary pain. As mentioned earlier, a lack of fiber and dehydration are common causes.  Another cause for concern would be a condition known as mega colon. This simply means your dog has an inflamed colon which prevents the discharge of feces.</p>
<p>The time to visit the vet will become evident when your dog&#8217;s inability to defecate is hampered by a decreased appetite, passing blood in minimal amounts, and overall lethargy.  Keep in mind, contributing to the overall health of your dog should be of the utmost importance. A dog&#8217;s love is unconditional, therefore, he or she is totally dependent upon you to maintain a healthy and harmonious life.  Be ever vigilant to any signs of stress and ensure his diet and exercise regimen is appropriate and on-going.</p>

<p>There is a huge choice of pergola designs available. Here are 7 quick and easy tips for choosing the best one for your garden.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>#1. Decide on your budget. You can do this for a few hundred dollars if you build it yourself, or anything up to 00 is typical if you employ a contractor.</p>
<h2>Self Improvement</h2>
<p>#2. Contact your &#8220;call before you dig&#8221; 811 number.  Avoid building a pergola anywhere near underground utilities.</p>
<p>#3. How much shade do you want? You&#8217;ll have more control if you build it yourself in wood. There&#8217;s less flexibility if you get a kit made in vinyl or aluminum.</p>
<p>#4. Choose your materials wisely. Wood is the least expensive. It&#8217;s also easy to work with. Only use pressure treated wood to protect against rot. Cedar wood will last for decades.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t want any maintenance, then consider aluminum or vinyl if your budget will run to several thousand dollars.</p>
<p>#5. Mark out the size you are thinking of before you proceed. Is it in sensible proportion to the size of your garden? If it&#8217;s to be a relaxing or entertaining, is it big enough and in a suitable location?</p>
<p>#6. Square and rectangular shapes are easier to build. You&#8217;ll also have a much wider choice of designs. Triangular and circular designs are available but they&#8217;re not so common.</p>
<p>#7. Keep in mind the purpose of your pergola.  They make a great addition to any garden. They&#8217;re great for giving some shade and a pleasant seating area, they&#8217;re great as a focal point, or for connecting different areas of the garden together.</p>

<p>While climbing into his hot tub, my healthy 87- year-old father-in-law slipped, fell, and broke a rib. He began internal bleeding that the doctors couldn&#8217;t stop. In two weeks, Gene was gone.</p>
<h2>Writing Articles</h2>
<p>Fortunately, we had taken time a few months earlier to record Gene&#8217;s life story, and discovered some amazing facts. He was a semi-pro baseball player, a fine watercolorist, and a US Marine. As a marketing executive for Kaiser and later Del Monte, he worked on national advertising campaigns with mega-stars of his day, including Joan Crawford, Debbie Reynolds, Stan Musial, Lloyd Bridges and others.</p>
<p>We recorded Gene&#8217;s life story on two occasions: once at a small family dinner, then during a living-room interview a few months later.</p>
<p>We transcribed the audio files of the recordings, added pictures, and then uploaded the whole package to a new free web site that helps people write great personal and family stories. (See resource section,below).  Gene&#8217;s family and friends can view his story and add comments or photos if they wish. The profile that we co-created with Gene is a celebration of his life. It&#8217;s also a direct, meaningful connection with his daughters and their grandchildren. Anyone can create a life story for themselves or a loved one. It&#8217;s as simple as setting aside some time and doing some careful listening.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve helped hundreds of people across the US, Canada, and Mexico capture their life stories. Based on hundreds of hours of interviews, I&#8217;ve boiled down my experience into three key tips, and the 50 most productive questions you can use for success.</p>
<p>Success Tip #1: Pre-Interview Preparation is Key</p>
<p>To get the most from your family history session, be as prepared as possible.</p>
<p>. Inform the subject of the purpose of the interview, who will see it, and how it will be used &middot; Prepare your questions in advance &middot; Set aside a quiet time and place free from interruptions</p>
<p>&middot; It&#8217;s a good idea to use a voice or video recorder; test all equipment thoroughly before starting</p>
<p>&middot; It&#8217;s often useful to use a tape or digital recorder and transcribe the dictation</p>
<p>&middot; Photos, mementos, or other visual aids are great memory-joggers. Ask your subject to prepare some in advance</p>
<p>&middot; Listen attentively and gently; ask questions of clarification</p>
<p>&middot; Don&#8217;t try to force the subject into something they are uncomfortable discussing</p>
<p>Success Tip #2: Be Flexible and Creative</p>
<p>When I first started doing life story interviews, it seemed as if people spent the majority of time talking about their early days. As I got more experience, I began to realize that most people have one, two or possibly three key defining times in their lives. For many, it&#8217;s childhood. For a lot of men, it&#8217;s WWII, Korea, or Vietnam. The defining moments emerge like finding a gold nugget in a streambed. Be sensitive to these defining moments and episodes. Listen extra-carefully, and ask questions. Often a deeper portrait of an individual emerges, laden with rich experiences, values, beliefs, and layers of complexity. If you don&#8217;t complete the interview in one sitting, set a date to resume your conversation later</p>
<p>Success Tip #3: Organize Life Stories into Chapters<br />
</p>
<p>Most people (yes, even shy ones) love to be the center of attention and share stories from their lives. There are two challenges for a family historian. The first is to capture the stories in a structured, logical way. The second is to make sure that the stories are as complete as possible and contain facts (names, dates, places), fully-drawn characters, a story line, and perhaps even a finale. The GreatLifeStories web site divides the life experience into 12 &#8220;chapters&#8221; that follow the progression of many lives. On the web site, each chapter contains anywhere from 10 to 25 questions. (Below, I&#8217;ve selected the 50 questions that usually get the best results). Don&#8217;t worry; you don&#8217;t have to ask them all. In fact, after one or two questions, you may not have to ask anymore-the interview takes on a life of its own.</p>
<p>The most important objective is to make sure you cover as many of the chapter headings as possible. The chapter headings are logical and somewhat chronological in order: Beginnings, School Days, Off to Work, Romance and Marriage, and so forth. Feel free to add your own chapters, as well. The 12-chapter system is a great way to organize both the interview, as well as the life story write up, video, or audio recording.</p>
<p>CHAPTER 1: In the Beginning</p>
<p>1. What were your parents and grandparents full names, dates of birth, places of birth.</p>
<p>2. What were the occupations of your parents?</p>
<p>3. How many children were in your family? Where were you in the lineup?</p>
<p>4. Generally speaking, what was your childhood like?</p>
<p>5. What one or two stories do you remember most clearly about your childhood?</p>
<p>6. Are there any particularly happy, funny, sad or instructive lessons you learned while growing up?</p>

<p>1. What was it like where you grew up?</p>
<p>2. Describe your most important friendships</p>
<p>3. Where and how did &#8220;news of your neighborhood&#8221; usually flow?</p>

<p>1. Be sure to capture names and dates attended of grammar, high, colleges, trade or technical schools</p>
<p>2. What are your earliest school day memories?</p>
<p>3. Are there any teachers or subjects you particularly liked or disliked?</p>
<p>4. What did you learn in those first years of school that you would like to pass along to the next generation?</p>
<p>5. Were you involved in sports, music, drama, or other extra-curricular activities?</p>
<p>CHAPTER 4: Off to Work</p>
<p>1. What did you want to be when you grew up?</p>
<p>2. What was your first job, and how did you get it?</p>
<p>3. What was your first boss like? What did you learn from him or her?</p>
<p>4. Did you leave? Quit? Get promoted? Get fired?</p>
<p>5. Were you ever out of work for a long time? If so, how did you handle it?</p>
<p>CHAPTER 5 Romance &amp; Marriage</p>
<p>1. What do you recall about your first date?</p>
<p>2. How did you know you were really in love?</p>
<p>3. Tell me how you &#8220;popped the question,&#8221; or how it was popped to you.</p>
<p>4. Tell me about your wedding ceremony. What year? Where? How many attended? Honeymoon?</p>
<p>5. Tell me about starting your family.</p>
<p>6. Were you married more than once? How often?</p>
<p>CHAPTER 6: Leisure and Travel</p>
<p>1. What were the most memorable family vacations or trips you can recall?</p>
<p>2. What leisure time activities are you involved with?</p>
<p>3. What are your greatest accomplishments in this field?</p>
<p>CHAPTER 7: Places of Worship</p>
<p>1. Do you follow any religious tradition?</p>
<p>2. If so which one, and what is it like?</p>
<p>3. Have you ever changed faiths?</p>
<p>4. What role do your beliefs play in your life today?</p>
<p>5. What would you tell your children about your faith?</p>
<p>CHAPTER 8 War &amp; Peace</p>
<p>1. Were you a volunteer, drafted or a conscientious objector?</p>
<p>2. If you didn&#8217;t serve, what do you recall about being on the home front during the war?</p>
<p>3. What key moments do you recall about your service?</p>
<p>4. What would you tell today&#8217;s young soldiers, sailors and fliers?</p>
<p>CHAPTER 9 Triumph and Tragedy</p>
<p>1. What were the most joyous, fulfilling times of your life?</p>
<p>2. Any sad, tragic or difficult times you&#8217;d care to share such as losing a loved one, a job, or something you cared about?</p>
<p>3. What lifelong lessons did you learn from these tough times? Joyous times?</p>
<p>4. Were there any moments you recall as true breakthroughs in any area of your life?</p>
<p>5. If you could do one thing differently in your life, what would that be?</p>
<p>CHAPTER 10 Words of Wisdom</p>
<p>1. What have you learned over your lifetime that you&#8217;d like to share with the younger generation?</p>
<p>2. People will sometimes repeat aphorisms such as &#8220;honesty is the best policy.&#8221; If they do, be sure to ask how they learned that life lesson.</p>
<p>CHAPTER 11: Funnybones</p>
<p>1. What were your family&#8217;s favorite jokes or pranks?</p>
<p>2. Who is, or was, the family comedian? &#8220;Straight&#8221; man?</p>

<p>CHAPTER 12 Thank You</p>
<p>1. What are you most grateful for you your life?</p>
<p>2. How have you taught your children to be grateful?</p>
<p>3. Are there items or places that mark special gratitude for the ones you love? What are they? What are their stories?</p>
<p>In closing, it is always a good idea to ask an open-ended question such as:&#8221; Is there anything I haven&#8217;t asked about that you would care to comment on?&#8221; You&#8217;ll often be surprised and delighted at the answers!</p>

<p>If you are reading this, and fit the situation, then the subject is already a consideration on your mind.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<div style="float: left;">
</div>
<p>You may have read something on the subject, spoken to a girlfriend who has passed through the experience recently, and heard about it in school. We hope to help you here, with a short guide. It is for you.</p>
<h2>Self Help</h2>
<p>First of all, you must feel it is the correct thing to do. You must NOT be pressured into it, or the experience will fail to bring you the pleasure and good memories you expect and deserve. You are in charge of your life and body. You must really feel ready for it.</p>
<p>If you have been masturbating, you probably had clitoral orgasm, so you know what is possible in terms of feelings. You must also, know your own anatomy.</p>
<p>You know you have some outer lips that cover the vulva, and some inner lips which are very flexible. If your hymen is intact, you are also going to tear that, with the accompanying sensations and bleeding. Find out.</p>
<p>In the second consideration, do not have sex if you have over-drunk alcohol. You can become drunk and lose a great deal of your judgment after even one drink.</p>
<p>The third consideration is INSISTING on the use of a condom with your partner. The reasons for this are well known, and certainly there is no excuse for not using it. You must be protected. This is a health concern, a very good way to prevent conception, and generally a good idea as it will help to slow down your partner by desensitizing him a bit.</p>
<p>So to begin.</p>
<p>You cannot have too much foreplay. This should take the form of mutual kissing, erotic massaging, exploring each other&#8217;s bodies, seeing where each of you are sensitive and have erogenous spots. Don&#8217;t rush. It will be over soon enough as it is.</p>
<p>All the while as you have foreplay, your womb will be producing the all important moisture that is required. Believe us, the wetter the better. You cannot be too wet for the first time. If you are a bit adventurous, ask you partner to give you cunnilingus, and if you can, give to your partner some fellatio. These are wonderful signs of showing affection.</p>
<p>Getting into it.</p>
<p>Make sure after your foreplay (and perhaps fellatio) put on the condom if you haven&#8217;t already. The partner may make the first move to go directly into the standard missionary position. Bad idea. It is the worst position to lose your virginity. You are not in control, and it will be more painful and you cannot do anything but lay there and take it.<br />
<br />Instead, try the girl on top position. Here you are in control. Your vagina has never had anything in it before (like a penis) and it must accommodate it slowly&#8230;and it will.</p>
<p>If you are losing you hymen, you are the one determining the speed and pressure with which it occurs. You will not suffer, and if you are still not wet enough, you can apply some water-based vaginal lubricant (such as K-Y). The deed is soon done, and you can get down to thrusting.</p>
<p>At first, have your partner move without thrusting, just applying pressure while fully inserted in your vagina. As it begins to feel natural, you can your self start thrusting.</p>
<p>At this point you can change positions (assuming your partner has lasted) and go onto your back. However, do not settle for the simple missionary position, but tilt your pelvis slightly up, and ask your partner to suspend himself on his arms and not lay on you&#8230;this when thrusting will stimulate both your clitoris and G-spot.</p>
<p>There are a lot of variables here, but lose you virginity as we suggest, and you will have in your mind pleasant memories instead of feeling unfilled, or used.</p>
