Entertainment > Music Genres, Trends & Scenes Best love songs of all time: 1 of 35
The number one love song is "I Will Always Love You". I love Whitney Houston's rendition. However, Dolly Parton did a nice job with the song as well. I saw Whitney's video for the song the other day, and I was taken back. When the song was released, I was in junior high school. I had no clue of what love was. I had a very in... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Self-Awareness & Realization Explain the verse "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind": 3 of 30
Being transformed by the renewing of your mind refers to the work of the Holy Spirit. As we read the Bible and apply its principles to our lives, we will be changed or transformed. The Bible states we should let the mind that is in Christ Jesus be in us. Our carnal minds are not like Jesus. We have to thoroughly read the Bib... More..
Health & Fitness > Mental Illness The stigma of a mental health diagnosis: 3 of 28
When I was first officially diagnosed with mental illness, I thought my life was over. I thought, "Oh my God. I'm crazy." I felt the need to give up on all my hopes and dreams.

I never would have imagined that a month before my father's birthday, he would pass away. Not only that, but the week of Father's Day. I got a telephone call. I was having lunch at work.

Politics, News & Issues > Natural Disasters Impressions of post-hurricane New Orleans: 1 of 7
I resided in the lower ninth ward before Hurricane Katrina. It truly devastated me to see the aftermath. The media tends to show visuals of a clean, nearly repaired city. National news often shows this visual. Sadly, even local news shows this image. Many areas in New Orleans are repaired. The area where I once resided is st... More..
Health & Fitness > Therapy & Counseling Should there be a link between spirituality and psychiatry?: 9 of 54
As a mentally ill person, I believe that psychiatry and spirituality is the best method. I have been diagnosed with various mental illnesses. No two doctors view my illness in the same light. I was told by one doctor that I was schizophrenic. Later, while I was taking an anti-depressant, I was told that schizophrenia could n... More..
Style & Beauty > Hair Care Guide to discount hair care products: 1 of 6
They often say, you get what you pay for. That is true to a certain extent. When you are shopping for hair care products, pay attention to the ingredients in the products. If a product price is too amazing, the performance is probably not amazing. Such products cost about a dollar a gallon, and consist of primarily water. Be... More..

Society & Lifestyle > Economic Values What is poverty?: 8 of 30
Society places extreme emphasis on material deprivation as poverty. However, from a Christian standpoint, that is not so. We need food, clothing, and shelter. There is a difference of opinion with regard to what type of food, clothing, and shelter. Many people would not be satisfied living in middle class neighborhoods. The ... More..
Style & Beauty > Body Image Beauty standards: Why do women try for the unrealistic: 4 of 14
I believe women try for the unrealistic due to the media's perception of beauty. We live in one of the most vain and superficial countries in the world. Thin and blond is the Caucasian ideal for beauty. Voluptuous and half-naked is the African American ideal of beauty. Only people with morals and values see beyond this insan... More..
