Why we should not let life get us down.

If I was going to title this post I would have to name it Why we should not let life get us down.
As I reflect on this day, overall it was not too bad. I started my day at work and I had 2 groups. One group just dealt with classes that helped the clients as they have been in the program. The other group was on Problem Solving skills. When I have the next group on Monday for this particular one will be on 2 types of problems we face as individuals.

 In your face problems- Problems where you have to take immediate action. Someone bumps into you, someone pulls a knife or someone just want to argue.
2.       Time to think problems- Situations where you don’t have to take immediate action. Bills, job and where you are going to live.

As a believer I know God is taking care of all my problems and needs in my life. There are so many of my friends that are hurting, also. One friend is dealing with severe health issues and has been unable to work, she also has no income coming in. 

One thing as I get older I realize we all have a story. We all have had to face different situations. Some emotional and some trauma. I was talking to someone today that I believe that a lot of people suffer in silence. You cannot get well if you do this. You must talk to someone about what is bothering you, or you will never get well. We need to also I believe have a relationship with God. God truly is the one who can heal us and help us go on from day to day.

Cornwall Council’s Health Promotion Service is helping to raise awareness of depression as part of this year’s National Depression Awareness Week, which runs from April 28 to May 23.
Depression is a medical condition which people often struggle with in silence, and is frequently undiagnosed, due to people’s reluctance to seek help. It is estimated that there are 90,000 people in Cornwall suffering from a common mental disorder, usually anxiety, depression or both. It is difficult to give accurate figures, though national research suggests that around 16 per cent of adults are affected.
My friend today there is plenty of help out there and there is no need for you to suffer. Please use the resources that are available to you.Don't let life beat you down. You can survive. You can overcoe anything with the right help.

Michele Knight On The Dr. Phil Show


Michele Knight returned to the DR. Phil show today and gave us some great insight on what she endured. Knight, Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus were held captive by Castro for more than 10 years.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The horrific memories of being held captive and brutalized by Ariel Castro don't fade with time, Michelle Knight said during an emotional return to the syndicated "Dr. Phil" show.
"No, they never go away," Knight told Phil McGraw during the "Dr. Phil" episode that aired Wednesday. "They stay there, but you know you're able to live your life."
Knight shared many painful and disturbing memories during a highly rated two-part interview aired on McGraw's daytime talk show in November. A year after escaping Castro's Seymour Avenue home, she reunited with McGraw, this time in front of a studio audience.

Here is some feedback on Michele Knight.

What happened to the girls were beyond horrible, no doubt! At this point this Michelle Knight needs to privately sort through her issues. Most of us know she's mentally and emotionally challenged, and from what's been said, was so, before the kidnapping happened. At this point, she's looking a little more nuts. If you going to change your name, why publically announce it, alng with all the other bazaar happenings in her personal life. And of course, with her new found attention she's getting, the media will exploited her further. Please get off Dr Phil, tv in general and all the other media outlets.

I am not sure if I could survive something like this. I am so there is much torment going on with the 3 ladies that were held hostage all those years at the home in Cleveland, Ohio. 

Samsung galaxy s5 news and rumors May 7, 2014

Here is the Samsung galaxy s5 news and rumors May 7, 2014. This site is updated as much as is possible.
Samsung finger print sensor is pretty amazing to try
Originally from : http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/05/07/new-samsung-galaxy-s5-ad-forced-to-cherry-pick-lines-from-lackluster-reviews-
The first quote to appear in the ad (above) is from Business Insider, which stated "the Samsung Galaxy S5 does a lot of things that Apple's latest iPhone can't do."

Lines Steve Kovach's actual review didn't make the cut, such as: "Samsung's fingerprint sensor isn't as elegant as Apple's. It only works if you swipe your finger across the button, and you have to do so just right or you'll get an error message."

Samsung is getting down to business with an update to Knox on the Samsung Galaxy S5. Knox 2.0 involves a rethink of Samsung's business software and services designed to make Galaxy phones and tablets safe for work.
Samsung now describes the new improved Knox as not one platform but a "portfolio of multiple products and services", designed to beef up the security of phones and tablets so they can be safely and securely used by businesses.
The core security platform and app container has been renamed Knox Workspace, and the overall Knox ecosystem adds two new cloud-based services: Knox EMM allows your device to be controlled remotely by your IT team, and Knox Marketplace is a dedicated app store

It's the battle of David and Goliath: global juggernaut Samsung and perpetual underdog HTC have both released their 2014 flagship smartphones. Despite the fact that most premium smartphones these days are the same rough size and shape with the same Android OS, the two companies couldn't have chosen more divergent approaches. One is throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks, while the other is hoping an understated yet bold approach will help it win fans.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One (M8) are both iteratively better than their respective predecessors - which are both still pretty great phones - and thanks to the Rupee's fall against international currencies, they're also significantly more expensive at launch. Picking up a 2014 flagship will mean making a significant investment in something that you know for certain will be phased out in slightly less than a year, so it's important to choose well.

Samsung wants to make one thing perfectly clear – they are not trying to steer us in the direction of ‘heath consciousness’ but merely trying to meet consumer’s needs and preferences. In the words of JK Shin, President and Head of IT & Mobile Communications Division at Samsung: “Consumers are looking for mobile tools that inspire and support them as they improve their everyday lives.” The health fitness craze started long before the Samsung Galaxy S5, Gear 2 and Gear Fit devices were announced at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2014. It is projected that by 2015, there will be over 500 million users of mobile health apps and Samsung wants to be on the forefront of supplying those types of application to its users.

Calling the Samsung Galaxy S5 a phone is like referring to a Ferrari Testarossa as a horseless carriage. Sure, you can ring up a hardware store with it and ask if they carry stud finders, but you can also take a selfie, then Photoshop it into a wannabe Warhol litho while simultaneously playing Crazy Taxi and binging on a full season of Storage Wars. Ain’t modern life grand?
Even so, technophile hairsplitters may protest that there’s nothing spanking new under the hood of the Samsung S5 when compared with its big brother—last year’s S4—and that is hard to refute. Most leading entries in the field—the iPhone 5, HTC One (M8), Nokia Lumia—pretty much compete on an increasingly level playing field nowadays.
