9 Months Of Pregnancy In 4 Minutes

Image
This video shows in just four minutes how a child arrives in this world, from conception to birth. The clip offers a 3D visualization of the development of an embryo in the mother’s womb, and will be interesting for both men and women to watch. Incidentally, as little as 20 years ago we could only have dreamed of making this kind of film, for in those days the technology to make an ultrasound image of the inside of the uterus did not exist.

THE ONE VIDEO THAT CAN CHANGE THE WORLD

Image
This is a short documentary film made by Spencer Cathcart questioning our freedom, the education system, corporations, money, the American capitalist system, the US government, world collapse, the environment, climate change, genetically modified food, and our treatment of animals. I urge you to listen it the whole way through. If everyone in the world would hear every word in this video and then act upon their feelings the world would change overnight… At this moment you can be anywhere, doing anything. Instead you sit alone before a screen. So what is stopping us from doing what we want, being where we wanna be? Each day we wake up in the same room, following the same path to live the same day as yesterday. Yet at one time, each day was a new adventure. Along the way something changed. Before, our days were timeless, now our days are scheduled. Is this what it means to be grownup, to be free, but are we really free? Food, water and land, the very elements we need to ...

The 3 Main Reasons Why People are Afraid to Think

Image
Logical thought is one of the main traits that distinguish us humans from other animals. The majority of people, however, don’t make full use of their thinking capacity, mainly because of the conditioning that they had to undergo when they were growing up, which has made them fear thinking. Here are the three main reasons why people are afraid to think: 1. Thinking brings change Thinking can make us reconsider our way of living, allowing us to see things from different perspectives, and helping us find ways to overcome obstacles that we might be facing — in short, it can change our lives to the better, if used wisely. Although  change is a necessary part of spiritual growth , many people are afraid of it, being strongly attached to their past — or rather, their ego — that they identify themselves with. Hence they choose not to think in order to prevent any change from happening, holding on their ego so hard, not wantin...

5 Secrets to Creating A Great Relationship

Image
It is a cliche to say that relationships are hard and need to be worked on daily.   It doesn’t mean that the sentiment is untrue, but a fundamental law of our nature. Individual people are as unique as anything can be in the vast and diverse Universe. For two individual people with their own goals and priorities to hitch their destinies together and pull in the same direction for decades is no small feat of endurance. It requires a few things in abundance to complete that journey to its inevitable end. Much of our society views relationships as either disposable or possessing an expiration date. Couples who stay together to the end view their relationships as forever and irreplaceable. But, how do you build a relationship that lasts forever? HERE ARE FIVE ‘SECRETS’ TO A GREAT AND LASTING RELATIONSHIP: 1. TRUST If you have ever watched a child build an elaborate building out of wooden blocks or some contraption out of Legos, only to smash it apart in a second of gleefu...

5 Things Everyone Should Talk About On Their First Date

Image
First dates can be nerve-wracking. What do you wear? Will you live up to your online photos? What the hell do you talk about without sounding like a stupid fool? I personally love being nervous and anxious and excited when I go on a first date. Meeting new people is so exciting especially when you're almost primed to try and find out if you're going to love getting intimate with this person or not. But sometimes nerves can get in the way, and you'll unfortunately find yourself talking ad nauseam about your childhood rock collection. Thankfully, these five pointers will help guide you towards successful first date conversations. 1.Discussing Travel is a billion times better than discussing movies. Anyone and everyone loves movies, all right. But do you really want to hate your first date when they tell you with a straight face that 'Transformers 2' is a good film? Studies show that couples who discuss movies on the first date are half as likely ...

Why People Get Stuck In Life

Image
We have all experienced a rut in our lives, whether that rut was a relationship we knew was bad for us or going nowhere in a dead end job we couldn’t afford to leave. Some people sacrifice to break out of that rut. They recognize that to stay there is a death sentence for their dreams and desires. For others, though, getting out of that rut or hole is not so easy. But the reasons they remain stuck where they are is painfully obvious to those who have escaped it. They gave up. They accepted their lot in life and blame their lack of movement forward on others. They have not realized that if they want to move forward, they have to push. They have to push themselves to find a way out. They have to push obstacles out of the way and they have to push their own dreams forward. HERE ARE SOME REASONS WHY PEOPLE GET STUCK IN LIFE: THEY ACCEPT THEIR SITUATION Some people just accept their lot in life and do nothing to change it.  They have been beaten down so much trying to get out...
