Sometimes the truth can get twisted in this life. Blurred. Manipulated. Lines get crossed. Things once seen as black and white may start to appear grayer. It may seem harder to recognize what’s true or what’s false. What’s light and what’s dark?Many times the wolf disguised in sheep’s clothing knows the religion better than we thought, crafting and twisting it so much, we might even find ourselves feeling confused over what real truth is anymore. So how can we spot a wolf in sheep’s clothing and...

Dealing with a man or woman who is not mature emotionally can be frustrating, and it can seem like it won’t ever end, but the truth is, it’s entirely possible to address and fix their behavior. As mentioned before, through reinforcement and the principles of operant conditioning, negative behaviors are learned, but they can also be undone. This means that positive ones can also be taught as well. Taking note of the specific ones that are problematic and understanding why they exist can be valuab...

Communication and trust are the cornerstones of a successful relationship. Mutual understanding comes from sharing thoughts and honest communication. If your partner is emotionally immature, trying to have a conversation with them can be draining. An emotionally immature person gets angry and disappointed easily and fails to control themselves. They often vent their anger on their partner, and this may create rifts in the relationship. Such a person avoids serious conversations and is unaware of...

The instability of relationships comes from the opaqueness of feelings. Half the time and energy expelled in a relationship revolves around trying to figure out how the other person feels. Partnerships take time, practice and complete trust. They are rarely formed because of people’s fleeting feelings and most partners understand that it takes time to get there.” A purposeful partnership is one that allows you to seek out your own goals and grows towards them within a union. It involves consciou...

As a result, Black American Muslims have a great deal of resilience. But resilience alone does not treat mental health problems any more than it cures diabetes or high blood pressure.” **********************************...

“The saddest thing about hypocrisy and deceit is that it often doesn’t come from our enemies or people we don’t know, but rather from those close to us. As you’d expect, this hurts. A lot. When we are deceived, the worst thing about it isn’t the lie itself, but what the lie brings with it. When a feeling as important as trust is broken, something inside us dies. The lie calls thousands of truths into question, making us doubt even the experiences that we thought were the most honest.” Join TDMWP...

Until forty or fifty years ago, almost all that was expected of a husband and a father was to protect and provide for his family. Today, most men realize that the cultural perceptions are changing: a good husband/father also communicates with those in his care, expresses love for them, and is involved in many aspects of their lives. While this is progress, the cultural perceptions for women are just as complex. According to recent studies, a large percentage of women are out-earning their spouse...
