Have You "Freed Your Inner Book" Yet?
Workin' On It
What You Need to Know About Me:
My mission in life is simple. I am here to be a voice of reason in an unreasonable world; to be heard by those who may not hear another. As I witness personally and culturally the wholesale decimation of the state of our relationships, I believe it is far past time that someone at least say something to stem the tide.

Sure, there are many things that can be blamed for the multiplied millions of casualties. However, the exponentially growing pervasiveness of the attitudes of inbred entitlement and the corresponding irresponsibility are what I perceive to be at the very heart this wanton wave of destruction.

With that being said, my intention is to bring discomfort - perhaps even offense. In the process though, I will be jolted from my own inertia and complacency. In the process, I will take all with me who are willing to go.

So buckle up. The ride will be bumpy, but we'll be all the better for our endurance.

How to Stop the Spread of America’s Most Dangerous Pandemic - Narcissism

There was a time when I used to be amazed at the number of seemingly grown men who were unwilling to be responsible for their own lives and for those of the families they made. Like everyone else, I’ve seen the increasing dismal statistics of fatherlessness in the American community. I would even go so far as to say there is pandemic manlessness as well. Men in our extended families are also becoming increasingly rare. What seems to be commonplace now are families with lots of women, young child… Continue

Why Ask Why?

In the great mental vacuum of psychobabble and matching talk shows, seems to be an endless string of people from failed relationships asking “why”. “Why didn’t I get my promised phone call?” “Why weren’t they where they said they were going to be?” “Why did they lie to me?” “Why did they cheat on me?” Why, why, why, why!!! These pointless inquiries are usually followed by some mention of “closure” as if having “closure” somehow changes the end results. My question is why ask why?

The fact is it… Continue

Pros And Cons Of Sex Before Marriage

What To Do, What To Do?

This question won't be going anywhere any time soon. As long as there are people with rushing hormones, this is going to be an issue. Many will blame the animal in us (particularly men - sorry fellas- smile); others will blame our histories; still others will create their own philosophies.

However, there are some things I have noticed that I don't see anyone else discussing. For example, anatomically speaking, all the reasons that sex is good for marriage make it… Continue

Why Do So Many Men Like Porn?

Lessons For Women

Women have wondered forever what it is about porn that mesmerizes so many men. Some of us have tried to participate with our partners only to find ourselves feeling like Hell afterwards. Others of us have found ways to make it part of our sexual lexicon with mixed results.

Let's face it. Outside of the industry, it is difficult at best for a couple to comfortably fit porn into their relationship. Men, on the other hand, generally have no problem keeping as part of thei… Continue

Do I Have to Forget to Forgive?

Amnesia is Impossible. Now What?

Hurt feelings happen. Pain is a fact of life. Get used to it. It's not going anywhere. Create a strategy for dealing with it right now and spare yourself years and years of needless pain.

The good news is hurt feelings are not fatal. You don't have to die from your pain. Pain doesn't have to be a lifestyle. Contentment and happiness can be made in spite of it. The real question is, are you willing to do what it takes to have contentment and happin… Continue

How are you my sister, I would like to present the opportunity for you to do something that might one day help out a family member, or even a friend. Your support would be greatly appreciated, and if you will, please pass this info. along to your friends, if not I still love you, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Most of you already know that I have written a book entitled; There's Something Phony About "US" the church which deals with us who say we're saved, but nothing about our lifestyle supports our claim. But what you may not know is that when you purchase my book, 10% of the proceeds go to the American Cancer Society(my grandfather died from prostate cancer), and also the American heart association(my grandmother died from a massive heart attack). There are two books to choose from. You can purchase the books for just $12, or $18 by clicking on the links below. Let's help put an end to these 2 diseases that's affecting all people alike. So, on behalf of Myself, the Kingdom of God, my grandmother, and my grandfather, thank you very much for your support! May God continue to bless each and everyone of you. Please click on the link below to purchase or preview my book. Love you to Life!!!!

Great News!!!
A message from keith arnold to all of his friends, please forward this to all your friends!

Thank you to all of my friends who have supported me, and who will support me in the future by purchasing a copy of my book. I have great news, I have re-created a copy of my book so that most of you who couldn't afford to purchase it at the $19 price may be able to purchase it at the new price of $12. Please note that 10% of the proceeds that I receive from my book goes toward the American Cancer Society(my grandfather died from prostate cancer), and also the American heart association(my grandmother died from a massive heart attack). So, on behalf of Myself, the Kingdom of God, my grandmother, and my grandfather, thank you very much for your support! May God continue to bless each and everyone of you. Please click on the link below to purchase or preview my book. Love you to Life!!!!

Dogpile is cool. It's my favorite search engine because it searches Google, Yahoo, MSN, Ask, and probably several more sites all at the same time. Try it. You'll have fun. :-)

I will definitely be checking out your books. I'm still in the manuscript process myself. I have two articles published in a regional publication and I have a blog page on HubPages.com. I'm applying as a columnist for a new relationship website, too.

Just another sister trying to get her hustle on. :-)

You set a great example. Thank you for your time and contributions. I will definitely be looking forward to more.

Please do not greet everyone on the site with large images and announcements of your book or business. Yes, you want to tell the world, but learn the fine art of subtlety. A simple welcome and signature/link is fine. Let them ask you for more.

Spam is unsolicited advertising, whether it is posted as comments on other members' pages or is emailed for marketing purposes.

Please be considerate. Post your advertisement in the proper Articles/Forum or Group. There are free classifieds on the Pages tab. You can post your information on your profile and even update your blog as often as you like.

We are not into censorship, so please don't make us ask you to leave. Be kind and unselfish - don't spam.

Yep, the power of "facts" on the internet. Ain't it grand? People take forwards as gospel. Do you all also believe that Barack Obama shouldn't be president because he's not an American citizen? It' says he's not on the internet! I kinda wanted this…
