Kim Kardashian's Marriage

I've been married over 11 years and I am the first one to tell you that marriage is work! I believe what the Bible says, about marriage being a covenant, a man and woman shall leave their families and become one (http://bible.cc/genesis/2-24.htm) but that becoming one part really takes a lifetime. If I knew Kim personally this is what I would tell her heart to heart.

Dear Kim,

A wedding is a day a marriage is a lifetime. Divorce is not an option in my book. You need to learn how to build up, encourage and edify your man. At the same time your husband, should love you like Christ loves the church, and that's unconditionally. With all of your flaws and quirks, your husband may not be perfect but he's perfect for you. Don't throw away your marriage because of an argument. Turn off the cameras and really get to know each other. Marriage is about compromise and forgiveness. It's so easy to see the flaws in someone else and cast the first stone. In order to have a strong and successful marriage you need to work on becoming one and honoring your husband as the leader of your home, not criticizing him. Tell your husband, your love language so he can learn http://www.5lovelanguages.com/ what they are and how to encourage you as a wife and woman. We all need help in marriage but you need to be careful who you turn to sometimes. Everyone, won't be supportive of your marriage so be cautious about who you share your feelings with but the best person to talk to is always God. He won't tell all your secrets and share it with the gossip columns. 







Thou Shall Not Go to an Interview with out Makeup


Do you want to rise up the career ladder? Then a little makeup can help you…
Women are rising higher into the ranks of Corporate America and starting new businesses everyday. But did you know a little makeup can help?  I know it’s a double standard…men can have a beer belly and have hair growing out of their ears and nose but a woman has to maintain a certain appearance while also juggling her job duties.  Makeup can be helpful if it’s not overdone. According to the NY Times article, just taking the time to apply a little eyeliner, mascara and lipstick can make you feel better and give you a more polished look.

Taking that extra five or ten minutes to finish your makeup will make you feel more confident and might help you get that promotion.
