You said it I heard it

You cant undo the things you’ve said ; words once spoken cannot be erased, unless in rare instances the person has some sort of memory problem then you can have your fun with that I guess, normally though once you have said something that’s it, prepare for war.
It means therefore that

Do we train ourselves to accept cheaters?
I know we aren’t all perfect and so people make mistakes, but why does it seem as though it is always easier for women to forgive a partner who cheats than for a man to do so.
Do we train ourselves to accept cheating as a natural part of a relationship. We are constantly saying things like:

Ever so often it is good to reflect on life (although I have been told I do so "too much") and to see how much you have grown.

The biggest lesson I have learnt is to never say never. When I was much younger there are things I thought I would never do, places I thought I would never go, things I thought I would never say, relationships I thought I would never be part of. HA! So much for saying never

Lesson number two is that nothing happens by chance, and so every opportunity that comes your way must be seized.

 Solving the Puzzle/ The Big Picture
I have concluded that in every puzzle box you really do have ALL the pieces. We are just too often in a hurry to get to the big picture that we fit them incorrectly. So soon enough we begin to 'bite up' the pieces to make them fit.

Calm down. Relax. If it were meant to be in that spot it WILL fit you wouldn't have to try so hard. Take time and soon enough you will solve the puzzle and get to enjoy the big picture.

Life is like that!!

Isn't it?

Jacintha C. James is my biological mother but she has also mothered other Vincentians in her former position as a school teacher and continues to do so through involvement in various organizations. She grew up in a poor family but with determination and a thirst for knowledge has been able to lift herself out of poverty and now uses her life as an example to empower other women to do the same. She is a firm believer in the strength of women and is living proof that women are not only care-givers but that they also possess the ability redefine their worlds. I wish to highlight her work using three of the UN’s goals
