#Appearance
Things are not always as they seem; the first appearance deceives many.
Phaedrus
Can you remember the last time you came across the worst judgment? Do you feel beautiful in your own skin? Do you actually care about what others think about the way you look?
There are a lot of times where I don’t really understand why someone should deal with your life, your habits and the way you look.
Does it matter if someone is handsome, tall and thin? Does it matter if someone is not attractive and likes being fat and short, but is a good person as well?
I do believe that the way we look affects the people around us and makes everyone wondering about our self-confidence and happiness, but why should we be judged when we are trying to be happy while no one really knows what we are going through?
I have met so many people so far and I can tell that those who are the happiest are the people who live with passion and do not want to be liked for their lifestyle and for the way they look.
Being fat doesn’t mean that you are a bad person. If you want to eat a burger and fried potatoes just do it and ignore the judgment of other people. If you like your messy hair, your old and strange clothes, and still enjoy going out and having fun you are awesome.
At the time you respect others and you don’t cause problems I’m with you, and I am sure we could be friends. I guess everyone would hang out with you.
Every effort you make to look better should be awarded and no one should talk behind your back making comments that could embarrass you and keeping you back.
When you feel beautiful and happy in your own skin is something a lot of people envy and you should be proud of being you.
Fix your hair, put on your favorite clothes and shoes, and do not let anyone make you feel awful.
You are the person that you are and no one has the right to judge you. If you desire to change your life and habits do it because it’s your decision.
Love yourself and keep living your life to the fullest.

#Relationships
If civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships - the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live together, in the same world at peace.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Can you remember the last time you felt lonely and looked forward to having someone in your life where you could have fun and enjoy yourselves?
It happens very often and affects all of us (at some point), and that is the reason we can’t be without other people. We need to come along and connect with each other to run into prosperity and grow in a healthy environment.
Relationships are very important to maintain our physical and mental health. When there’s mutual interest, respect, love and concern we should feel blessed because it’s something that only a few can reach, and we should also do our best to keep it strong for as long as we are alive.
Although all types of relationships are important, I do believe that we should focus on family relationships and friendships because they will define our future and help us develop our personalities.
Aquantanships and romantic relationships are the spice of life since they can introduce us to the world of happiness, joy, enthusiasm, agony, disappointment and so many other things, and their necessity is not to be questioned, but cannot actually affect and change who and what we really are.
The structure of all types of relationships is based on honesty and integrity and this is something we should always remember for everyone’s good.
When someone stands by your side don’t betray his heart and feelings. Be you, let yourself meet others like you and never exploit anyone to benefit from the opportunity you were given to experience something new.
Life is tough and we are currently experiencing a very stressful situation where we all want one thing. We need to get back to life and make sure that we will move forward with the people that supported us through the process of staying strong and safe.
I think that it is the first time that all types of relationships went through a lot of criticism and consideration while meeting extremely difficult challenges.
Don’t give up on connections, stay positive and better listen before you speak. We need to stay close to each other because it is the best way to get what we want.
Don’t give up on relationships; they demand a lot of work and devotion to help us find our way to a better living and a better future.

Q&A with Chariss K. Walker
One of the most exciting things in the Publishing industry is meeting interesting people who are talented authors and write intriguing stories.
After reading Letting go of Pain by Chariss K. Walker, I had a few questions about her book.
About Letting go of Pain
A simple reminder that we must let go in order to move forward. This book shares many ideas and concepts to help you let go of a painful past and rid yourself of the weight of those burdens. Allow yourself to move forward towards your current hopes and dreams. Plus, a bonus excerpt from A Beginner's Guide to Releasing Trapped Emotions (Going Deeper, Book 1).
Chariss K. Walker, M.Msc., an award-winning author, writes fiction and nonfiction books with a metaphysical message. All of her books are sold worldwide in eBook, paperback, and many are in large print. To learn more about the author, visit her website: chariss.com.
Q&A
1. When we talk about consciousness what do we mean? What is consciousness?
1. Well, Angelo, when I talk about consciousness, I am referring to those thoughts and feelings that are hidden or buried deep within our body, mind, and soul. They surface at times, and we briefly consider them. If they are painful, we push them away. Unfortunately, beautiful thoughts and feelings rarely surface as memories. I suppose that is the human condition.
2. Is it possible to seek a personal journey without letting go of pain?
2. I believe that seeking a personal journey is a great step toward letting go of the pain. Seeking a personal or spiritual journey is a desire to grow, to stretch our wings, to open to life and spirit, and to discover who we are and why we are the way we are.
3. Persistence VS Patience, which one is more difficult?
3. Persistence is to keep at it, to keep trying.
Patience is to not give up when we don't immediately get the results we hoped to get.
4. We all want a healthy life, where should we stay focused?
4. Angelo, I believe that being conscientious is the best place to start. We all desire to do what is right, what is best for us. And, I believe that, with time, we become more conscious and more aware of how our actions affect others and our world. Awareness can be fine-tuned. For example, we can become aware of each bite of food that we eat, each sip of beverage that we drink, each aroma that we smell, each landscape we view, each hug or handshake we give or receive. Did you notice that I used the five senses?
5. What’s the meaning of family?
5. In the past, the family unit usually consisted of at least one parent and his or her children. Now, in our modern world, the meaning has changed... a lot. A family unit can be any group of people who desires to share food, shelter, and resources.
Some of us who have had difficult birth families – the parents and siblings that we were born into have found family or like-minded brothers and sisters wherever we could. I suppose it is safe to say that any group of people who care about the welfare of those individuals and desire to be a family is considered family.
6. Why is it difficult to come across unconditional acceptance?
6. I believe that question has a simple answer: We cannot unconditionally accept anyone unless we unconditionally accept ourselves.
That expands as we grow. Once we learn to love ourselves, we have love to give others. Once we learn to forgive ourselves, we have forgiveness for others. Once we learn to accept and love ourselves, we can love and accept others. We must apply the same love, acceptance, and forgiveness to ourselves before we have anything left to give to others.
7. Trapped Emotions VS personality development, what do you think?
7. There is little doubt in my mind that Trapped Emotions affect our personality. Trapped emotions cause painful spots or hot spots that when touched by another can cause a fiery reaction. For example, perhaps I have suffered from the emotion of abandonment. You might verbally poke me on that part of me that feels insecure about my job or family which in turn stirs up that feeling of desertion. In response, my reaction might be over the top, leaving you to wonder what you said.
Taking it a step further, if that Trapped Emotion is not released, it can cause dis-ease or ill-ness in my body, specifically in my heart or small intestine. It can also cause me a lot of trouble in society.
8. Tell me a few things about you.
8. I have over thirty-five years of experience helping others. In 2001, I earned the highest degree as a Reiki Master/Teacher and I went on to earn a Masters of Metaphysical Sciences in 2008. I was also awarded an honorary Doctorate in Divinity for a published work, Make a Joyful Noise: Searching for a Spiritual Path in a Material World, 2008. After working with others for many years in individual and classroom healing work I understood that I could reach far more by sharing those teaching methods in books than I could ever reach in the classroom setting. So, I began to share my teaching classes in book and eBook format. It has always been my desire to help others. Although I understand that my methods and teachings are not for everyone, it is my deepest desire that those who are ready for the information I share will find my published works at the perfect time for them.
I also write fiction books. In those, there is usually a character who struggles with his or her own acceptance of some metaphysical aspect of their lives such as dreams, visions, or some other spiritual gift. Although I admit that I write about some very dark topics, such as sexual abuse, it is to raise awareness of the struggles that someone must deal with and overcome to find health and peace in their lives. It is to show the reader that they are not alone.
9. Where can readers find you and your books?

#Sadness
Every human walks around with a certain kind of sadness. They may not wear it on their sleeves, but it's there if you look deep.
Taraji P. Henson
I guess you already know the meaning of this word, and I am also sure that you are aware of the fact that it’s your choice to decide whether you want to be sad or not.
Sadness has the ability to empty your heart and your thoughts while draining your soul and changing your life to the worst. But, the good news is that you can act and do what you want with your life. If you don’t like your current emotional situation, you can do as many changes as you desire.
You know yourself better than anyone else in the world so don’t waste your time. Respect your soul and listen to your heart. Time flies and, at some point, you will not be able to realize that you have done nothing to satisfy your needs. Don’t let this happen, do not sacrifice your life for no one.
Start doing your own thing without thinking what others might say about you and your life. Live for your own good and ignore criticism. Toxic people are countless, don’t deal with them and move on.
Next time you stand in front of the mirror say “hi” and smile at the reflection because it is up to you to get rid of the sadness.
You deserve a lot and never let anyone make you believe the opposite. Each one of us is special and we are supposed to live our lives to the fullest, sharing love and smiles with every single person we come across.
Start going out and walk. Use your energy to benefit from the dark you feel you are trapped. Start talking about your plans with your friends and you’ll discover the light in the beauty of our world.
Read books and let other people’s imagination travel you to places you’ve never been and would love to see.
Come close to mother nature and admire the uniqueness of the environment we are all supposed to live in harmony.
Surround yourself with positive vibes and never stop making dreams because good days are coming and you will have to be ready to enjoy them with all your heart.
All you need to do is to keep being persistent. Stand up and fight against your fears and insecurities because that’s where sadness is based and will never let you go until you say enough.
Life is too short, live and enjoy every single moment.

#Priorities
I learned that we can do anything, but we can't do everything... at least not at the same time. So think of your priorities not in terms of what activities you do, but when you do them. Timing is everything.
Dan Millman
Time is never enough to do all of the things we want to do. Every single day seems to be difficult, we are constantly busy at work, and we have to stay focused on our goals to make our dreams come true.
Is it possible to have a good and stress-free life without giving up on our desires?
I think the answer is yes, but it’s not so simple and easy to make it happen. We have to be more organized and we have to become familiar with a word that means a lot. We have to set priorities for each and every day.
There is nothing more important than ever before. So many things to do that demand our attention and precious time while being cautious and knowing that we have just a few hours to make sure we’ve done everything. But we are humans and we cannot do many tasks simultaneously.
Priorities are the best guide to help us out. Priorities are the key to achieve our goals while we providing us the opportunity to develop our personalities.
Step by step, yes this is the best way to get everything done and to be successful in the future.
When we rush to do everything at once, we often ignore that the results will not be the anticipated, and that’s mainly because of the omissions we have done in order to finish our work.
Success is based on our priorities and our commitment to them. If we won’t be able to control our desires, we will never be able to overcome the challenges that keep us behind.
Slow progress is an achievement and should not be underestimated. Focus on your priorities and everything will be fine. Give it a try and be patient preparing yourself for a very successful future.
I guess the answer is yes. We can live a normal life and enjoy a good and stress-free living without giving up on our desires.
Just set your priorities straight.

#Romance
Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.
Maya Angelou
Isn’t it nice to have a person interested in becoming part of your life while waiting for your response, and playing the game of love with kindness, patience and respect?
I think that the best medicine to keep having a good life is to make sure romance is not missing from our lifestyle. Romance is the best way to make our lives more enjoyable and motivated.
Idealistic quality, yes, that would be the perfect meaning of romance. And having a romantic relationship is amazing. It is a wonderful expression that can only be for good. Romance is needed to become more creative and joyful.
It does not matter the endurance of a state, but the experience of a special relationship. I think that the most important thing is to focus on the basics and enjoy the moments.
Romance is civilization, it is the natural evolution of our desire, and if used properly, we will be able to overcome the difficulties we have to meet in our lives every day.
Unfortunately, we spend a lot of time dealing with millions of other things and we keep losing our lives ignoring all those that are really essential to offer us a true life based on pure love.
Is there still time to become familiar with a special life, the one that we are supposed to live?
I am sure that if there was an application named “romance” we would all have it downloaded, and we would do everything needed hidden behind our countless smart devices without having to try and make it work. And, of course, we would not do anything further.
Romance depends on hard work and, honesty, and I do believe that if we won’t change our thoughts we will kill everything that has to do with it.
The main question is whether we want to be different or not.
Are you ready to explore the purest and deepest secrets of someone’s heart?

Q&A with A.B. Funkhauser
One of the most exciting things in the Publishing industry is meeting interesting people who are talented authors and write intriguing stories.
After reading Unapologetic Lives Series by A.B. Funkhauser, I had a few questions about her story and the characters.
About Unapologetic Lives Series
Heuer Lost and Found (Book 1)
Unrepentant cooze hound lawyer Jürgen Heuer dies suddenly and unexpectedly in his litter-strewn home. Undiscovered, he rages against God, Nazis, deep fryers and analogous women who disappoint him.
At last found, he is delivered to Weibigand Brothers Funeral Home, a ramshackle establishment peopled with above average eccentrics, including boozy Enid, a former girlfriend with serious denial issues. With her help and the help of a wisecracking spirit guide, Heuer will try to move on to the next plane. But before he can do this, he must endure an inept embalming, feral whispers, and Enid’s flawed recollections of their murky past.
Scooter Nation (Book 2)
Aging managing director Charlie Forsythe begins his work day with a phone call to Jocasta Binns, the unacknowledged illegitimate daughter of Weibigand Brothers Funeral Home founder Karl-Heinz Sr. Alma Wurtz, a scooter-bound sextenarian, community activist, and neighborhood pain in the ass is emptying her urine into the flower beds, killing the petunias. Jocasta shuts him down. A staff meeting has been called and things are about to change.
Shell Game (Book 3)
Carlos the Wonder Cat lives free, traveling from house to house in a quiet suburban neighborhood. Known by everyone, his idyllic existence is threatened when a snarky letter from animal control threatens to punish kitty owners who fail to keep their pets indoors. The $5,000 fine / loss of kitty to THE MAN is draconian and mean, but before Team Carlos can take steps, he is kidnapped by a feline fetishist sex cult obsessed with the films of eccentric Pilsen Güdderammerüng. Stakes are high. Even if Carlos escapes their clutches, can he ever go home?
Q&A
1) Morality VS Darkness, which one is more powerful?
1) That is a trick question. Both are evenly balanced in terms of the harm and the help each can do. Morality, backed by the rule of law grown and curated by the people it governs, enshrines and protects, whereas, Darkness begets wisdom if knowledge is gained and the receiver of said knowledge in their wisdom moves forward into the light.
I can turn all this on its head if you like.
Morality, settled in the hands of a few, will corrupt and pollute, whereas, Darkness begets ignorance when knowledge is lost, and then those, in their loss, move backward into unspeakable places.
2) Life chooses us, what’s your opinion?
2) “Freedom” is a trap. We make choices based on what we know. The value of what we know is determined by the quality of the sources that feed us —the www, 24-hour news, the guy across the street. These sources, severally, can be called “society”. In totality, it is “life”. Are we really in there?
3) Should we fear death?
3) Never. It’s a waste of precious life time. Death will come, and if we do things right, we won’t mind.
4) What is the lesson we should all learn in this life?
4) My lesson is different from yours and the person next to you and so on. The closer I get to the answer, the less I know. I try to be kind. I try not to be a jerk. I keep trying.
5) What does family mean to you?
5) I love them and I owe it to them to do better. The ones that came before me set the course. My job is to adjust that course for the ones that come after me.
6) Tell me a few things about you.
6) -I am drawn to curious people and things.
-I love and fear science fiction because it usually comes true.
-I get my fiction from non-fiction. I couldn’t make this stuff up.
-I am a dedicated optimist, although I often hide it because sunniness annoys serious people.
-I do not support cancel culture, buffoonery or navel-gazing
-I love amusement parks and the people amused by them.
7) Where can readers find your books?

After reading Unapologetic Lives Series by A.B. Funkhauser, I had a few questions about her story and the characters.
About Unapologetic Lives Series
Heuer Lost and Found (Book 1)
Unrepentant cooze hound lawyer Jürgen Heuer dies suddenly and unexpectedly in his litter-strewn home. Undiscovered, he rages against God, Nazis, deep fryers and analogous women who disappoint him.
At last found, he is delivered to Weibigand Brothers Funeral Home, a ramshackle establishment peopled with above average eccentrics, including boozy Enid, a former girlfriend with serious denial issues. With her help and the help of a wisecracking spirit guide, Heuer will try to move on to the next plane. But before he can do this, he must endure an inept embalming, feral whispers, and Enid’s flawed recollections of their murky past.
Scooter Nation (Book 2)
Aging managing director Charlie Forsythe begins his work day with a phone call to Jocasta Binns, the unacknowledged illegitimate daughter of Weibigand Brothers Funeral Home founder Karl-Heinz Sr. Alma Wurtz, a scooter-bound sextenarian, community activist, and neighborhood pain in the ass is emptying her urine into the flower beds, killing the petunias. Jocasta shuts him down. A staff meeting has been called and things are about to change.

Magic
Magic, have you ever wondered about the meaning of this word, and why is it so important to be part of our lives?
Believing in magic can be very helpful for all of us. I think that everyone has come to a point where he expected something for sure, and then, the result turned out to be completely different, surprising everyone who was aware of that fact.
Supernatural effects are rare, but very well welcomed when they take place in a difficult situation we are going through and help us move to the right direction.
When we take everything for granted, we start losing the taste of life and that’s when magic appears to change the world we are all in.
Magic is the key to success and happiness. Magic is the secret code to make things work in a special way and lead us to a better life.
Through magic we can come closer to freedom and set our minds free to travel to the path of our hearts, making us feel euphoria running in our veins all the time.
Life in our days is hard, and maybe dramatic as well, so I guess magic is what could make our living better and more interesting.
Surprises and unpredictable directions are necessary to get us out of the monotonous living.
Take chances, chase the unexpected, don’t give up on your dreams and get your life back.
And for no reason, do not stop believing in magic.

#SettingGoals
2021 is already here and the main questions are common for all of us. What do we really want to achieve? What is that little thing that could change our lives and make us happier?
While most of us wish to getting the same things, (and we are very well aware of the fact that we have to work very hard to get them), we shouldn’t ignore to be honest with ourselves, and during the process of setting goals, we should be realistic and make sure that these goals are attainable.
It would be nice if we would write down what we can achieve in a year and checking out our list as often as possible because this could be very useful and helpful.
Setting goals is very important since it is a great method to ensure that the time that passes by can change us, and with the right decisions we can evolve and become better in… everything.
I hope you enjoyed the most wonderful holiday season.
Wish You All the Best!
