Does the acquisition of money empower you to love more? - Part 1
Friday, May 11th, 2012
We all know that money makes the world go around and some have very little or none at all whereas others have a huge boatful. In a materialistic world such as ours, money becomes essential to afford the daily needs of life ie. sustenance, paying bills, buying the necessities of life. To what extent we are able to do this is determined by our earning power.
It can be a terrible burden when money becomes scarce and we are all likely to feel very demoralized and it usually ends up impacting our relationships with our loved one or partners. For most of us, we don’t need that much money but sufficient to have a somewhat comfortable life.
In recent studies it has been shown that money has been looked upon by people with intense emotions attached to it. This can make money a crucial catalyst in our daily attitude to life and how we interact with our partner and effectively forge our own destiny. The housing price increases witnessed in the US prior to the 2008 crash is a testament to people’s craving for money and the emotion they can easily attach to this. People definitely like to acquire money in any which way they can and when something moves at a large scale their original ideas of risks are diminished such is the craving for money.

The Sordid Truth about Love in this Square World
Monday, April 30th, 2012
Love as we would like to know it, is something that germinates within us and gives us seemingly uncontrollable bursts of love and passion inside all of us. Ideally, it makes everything around us more interesting and desirable and we have new elevated feelings that unfolds and gives us insights into the world never imagined before. We know that love truly comes from the heart and many of us are still waiting in anticipation to bite into this forbidden apple. Can love be so overpowering and yet so distant? I fear not, and love can surely be induced by the will of the person.
We all like to romanticize love and throughout history we have fashioned couples who portray love in its most purest form such as Romeo & Juliet, Cleopatra & Mark Anthony, Lancelot and Guinevere and the list goes on. It seems that love has no boundaries and effectively the couples are so drenched with each other in love that all practicalities of life takes secondary precedence. The question is how long will this love be sustained and will a true measure of its omnipotence be until the dying days. Inevitably we characterize the zealous love between the two lovers with a tragic ending. Clearly the notions of fantastic love has no place on this earth.

No doubt all of us in some way strive towards such unbridled feelings that emancipates the very depth and soul of our body and says unto you ‘this is the real you’. Because of this innate nature in all of us, we can in fact have the capability and the capacity for love. However, this capacity will take on a whole new shape if the ‘love’ is not reciprocated. Let me give you examples, you like someone of the opposite sex and every being in your body says ‘it’s a good thing’. You let your heart take over and soon you are engaged in a love story all by yourself. If your partner happens to feel the same way, then you are in luck, however if he/she is skilled in the nuances of love and affection, you can find yourself ensnared in the love of your own making.
The point is that everyone has the ‘key’ to love and they can open it with whomever they wish but their selection is deeply rooted in their own personal feelings and trust with that individual. We live in a world where it’s moving at the speed of light and people are becoming less patient and more into their own lives. We need to pause and take a breath and rather than the physical world consuming the very energy inside of us, we need to step back and reflect. The world needs to become less square and more round for love to take on it’s original understanding and meaning that it always had.

essential-gender-criterias-in-the-dating-game-part-1
What are the gender differences in the thinking behind this new modern world we live in especially in the areas of dating, relationships and marriage. We know that women are just as capable as men to take on high-flying jobs and to excel in it if they so wish. There are some truths when a high caliber woman chooses to date a younger man and this can happen often. However, if money and power are the primary requirements to acquiring a potential mate then one could say that it goes against the grains of traditional thinking that all relationships are built on ‘love’ and not materialistic stuff. Perhaps many of us take ‘love’ for granted and nowadays with so many places to visit, dine and buy toys, the financial
requirements of a relationship takes more precedence. The internet and the TV is a big window to so many possibilities and opens the way to an active and materialistic life but often require much financial backing. There is a balance but that is also addressed with many offerings of zero down and no payment required till next year. If we are not too careful we at the mercy of digging a financial hole that we cannot get out of and no ‘love’ in the world can get us out of this sticky situation. When you rejoice the whole world rejoices together and when you cry, you cry alone. Maybe there is a lot to be said for a relationship built on strong finance.

What does love mean to you or your dating partner – Do we really know?
Monday, April 2nd, 2012
For most of us, the word love is used fairly loosely and we often think its a word more associated with other people rather than us. We almost always portray love associated with characters we see in movies and at times we may refer to love to some real world couples that we happen to know. However, when love rears its head and glares at us, we associate the experience with everything else except but love. So why is love so enigmatic and yet we can confidently say that a couple is in love?
Love in my opinion is a very personal affair. One’s interpretation of love could be considered as an anguish or a painful desire for something unattainable. For others it maybe a feeling of euphoria when you think of another person but not necessarily being in the company of that person. This begs the question… can we honestly say that love exists between two people when each of the person concerned are at an elevated feeling just by being with each other or thinking of each other. In other words, it ‘takes two to tango’. Can someone wittingly ‘evoke’ love in another person? After all, in love or during dating each one of use is trying to impress the other. Could our ultimate goal for doing this is to indirectly heighten the pleasure of someone else and thus make them in turn love you?
Whatever it is, we know that love certainly exists. It is a force that paves the way for men and women to achieve great feats of power. The triumph of this power makes both men and women reach elevated states that are often beyond human comprehension. This is something we all want to achieve and in a way gives us a sense of direction and guidance to our lives. In essence, it gives us some purpose and meaning to our lives. In the realm of dating, if two people can bring about these feelings within each other, who is to say it is not love.

Valentine’s Day is also the best time for business as almost 50% of the U.S. citizens celebrate this day.

Valentine day has different image across some parts of the world as small groups from India, Pakistan and the Middle East countries claiming it is part of the Westerns culture and a distortion of human reality, but with the more and more and the ongoing effect of globalization with people migrating to different parts of the world this is changing.
