#Day 3 Women\NonViolence

June 19 International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict.

Couples who never fight are either:
1) living a lie,
2) tuned out, or
3) loving as hell. 

As long as you're kind to each other while arguing — no name-calling or throwing things — studies have shown that fighting can lead to a healthier marriage, since hiding your feelings can just eat at you and your relationship.
But here are some rules about fighting fairly, so you can get the most out of the argument:
1. Avoid repeats: If you find you're fighting about the same thing over and over again, your heated words aren't being effective, no matter how many times you say them. Find a new method. It might mean that you have to compromise or see a professional mediator (like a pastor or therapist).
2. Be open-minded: As hard as it sounds, put yourself in your mate's shoes to consider his point of view. Can you empathize at all? Try to. And explain yourself so he can do the same.
3. Listen: Don't cut each other off. The best way to get the most out of an argument is to really hear what the other person is saying and to try to figure out where she's coming from. The only way to do that is to stop thinking about how angry you are and to listen. So don't plan the next point you're going to make; try to learn more about the cause of this tiff. Oh, and keep your voice down. Everything sounds and seems much worse when it's loud.
4. Remember the real point: As much as you want to be right the purpose of argument is to learn more about your partner and what you need from each other. Try to find a compromise so neither of you has to "win". That way, the real point of this disagreement is fighting for your relationship.
5. It takes two to tango: Keep in mind that no matter how you slice it you're half the problem. But if you talk to each other openly and with respect, you'll quickly make up.

We are on the 3rd day of our discussion, as we celebrate and create awareness about women with regards their several international days marked all through the year and why there should be no instance, issue or abuse against the female gender.
We are saying no to domestic violence against women.

For us in TLF we are going to be focusing on Enterprise aka Labour aka Work for the entire month of June. We are urged to work. If you do not work how would you meet your daily needs? Like food, shelter, clothings and transportation? What about having what to give to others in need? There are so many reasons to work. I know many of us love to do what we love, we do not like to go to work if we do not like the job. But what if what you are doing as work and being paid for is actually what you love? What you love may not turn out to be a source of income, but we must still do what we can to earn. Are you enterprising? Please keep it up. Are you in paid labour in the private or public sector? Please do your work as unto the Lord God. Are you working all by yourself as a self employed worker? Please continue to grow and progress for greatness. Always know that in - Happy moments, praise God.  Difficult moments, seek God.  Quiet moments, worship God.  Painful moments, trust ...

UN Days for the Month of June.

The United Nations designates specific days, weeks, years and decades as occasions to mark particular events or topics in order to promote, through awareness and action, the objectives of the Organization. Usually, it is one or more Member States that propose these observances and the General Assembly establishes them with a resolution. On occasion, these celebrations are declared by the specialized agencies of the United Nations, such as UNESCO, UNICEF, FAO, etc., when they concern issues that fall within the scope of their competencies. Some of them may be later adopted by the General Assembly. 1 June Global Day of Parents   3 June World Bicycle Day  4 June International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression   5 June World Environment Day  5 June International Day for the Fight against Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing  8 June World Oceans Day   12 June World Day Against Child Labour 13 June International Albinism Awarene...
