YPs, I have more than likely touched on this subject in the past, but it is only because I think that it is important. It seems that everyone is so caught up in ‘You Only Live Once’, ‘Tomorrow Is Not Promised’, and every other catchy phrase that you can think of. People are not realizing the consequences of their ‘Careless’ actions. I am all about ‘Living Life To The Fullest’ and ‘Not Taking Life For Granted’ however, you do have to be mindful of the things that you want for TOMORROW, as well.
T0day, with the internet and all of the other technologies that we have, it is very easy to be monitored. People, for various reasons, are always evaluating you. Employers do not hire people without doing their research. People do not pick ‘lifetime partners’ without seeing what the person is about. All I am saying is that, sometimes you should not be so surprised when you do not get the j0b, or fired later on. Sometimes you should not be surprised when that woman/man decides not to talk to you, or even leave you after being with you for years. The evaluation process never stops. The things you say ARE held against you and the things you DO hold even more weight.
The next time you tweet about ‘Making A Poor Life Decision’ or you do things that you know your mate is not in favor of, just be ready for what may happen next. If you REALLY do not care and are not one of those people who just SAY they do not care, then go ahead and do what you have to do. However, if you do care about tomorrow, you should make an effort to be more mindful of the things you say and more mindful of what you do. Your decisions directly effect you and your life, act like you know that to be true!
YPs, Stand Up!!!

YPs, Monday night while trying to catch the T.I. reality show, I caught the last 3 min of Basketball Wives. In doing so, I was able to catch a conversation between Ochocinco and Evelyn. It was an interesting conversation, to say the least. Evelyn pretty much said to Ocho, that she knows he’s going to cheat and that he should just be honest with her. He confirmed by saying that when he’s on the road, he’s trying to see ‘wassup with the wassup.’ He also said that if they are out to dinner and he sees something (a woman) that he likes, they should be able to bring her home. Evelyn seemed cool with the idea, as long as she liked the woman too. Although I, personally, have a 0% tolerance policy for cheating, the question, for the masses, that I have is… SHOULD CHEATING BE ALLOWED???
Cheating is a ‘FIRE-ABLE’ offense, in my book. Yet, time and time again, we see men and women putting up with cheaters. Everybody makes mistakes, I know. This excuse is widely overused in the world. How many mistakes does one get? Is there a such thing as being committed to one person for the rest of your life, or even for the short time that you have agreed to be together, as boyfriend and girlfriend. [click to continue…]

YPs, it’s time for us to get grown for a minute. I’m coming to you today with one of the many aspects of a relationship, SEX. More importantly, being in tune to your mate and how he/she wants it. Sex can be a great positive force in a relationship. It can also be a great hindrance. Even when a relationship is not hitting on all cylinders, sex can be that common ground where two connect. Personally, I feel that great connection comes with a respect, love and admiration for your partner. Let’s be honest, most of us have had sex with someone that we were in love with and also with someone that we were not. The difference is almost ASTONISHING!!!
Having sex with someone that you love, comes with so many benefits. Humans by nature have selfish qualities. I think that when you have sex with someone you love, that selfishness goes out the window. When sexually involved with someone, you have to be open to how they like things. Everyone’s sex drive is not the same. Everyone’s favorite position is not the same. Everyone’s willingness to explore new things is not the same. You have to take the time to find these things out. You can only benefit, from being educated and informed of your partners needs. [click to continue…]
