The Power of Hello

 
A simple hello makes all the difference. Hello puts a smile on a person’s face, but you must be open and receptive. If you’re looking down at your cell phone or taking a selfie, you’re missing out on human interaction. Stay open to what is happening around you and say hello to each other.
 
Saying hello makes a big difference. Research demonstrates that little things make a big difference when it comes to social interaction. Too often we are stuck in our thoughts and cut off from the world. Stay open, and be sure to say hello to someone today to make the world a better place!

Can Dogs Eat Hot Dogs?

 
Yes, dogs can eat hot dogs. Dogs like eating hot dogs, because they’re made of meat. The main ingredients of hot dogs are pork, beef, chicken or turkey. I would stay away from any flavored or spicy hot dogs that could make dogs sick.
 
Although hot dogs are pre-cooked, they can be eaten without cooking. I prefer barbecuing the hot dogs for a better taste, and this also removes any bacteria and makes them safer to eat. They say dogs are a man’s best friend, but hot dogs are mine!

Frankly Speaking on Strong Moral Character


 
Presently, there is a common language used to shape belief systems that deny personal responsibility, truthfulness, and ethical behavior. We are desensitized by the norm that reinforces weak character development with low moral values. The current condition makes the development of strong moral characters vital.

 
To maintain a moral character, we must avoid basic ego drives and deception, and strive for transparency and values. Strong character is established by the adherence to moral values which is demonstrated via ethics in action. People of strong moral character are guided by ethical principles and worthy traits like integrity, courage, and compassion.

 
Authenticity is a key characteristic of trustworthy people. People of moral principal support an environment for friendly disagreements that lead to better understanding. To be a moral character means to be disciplined, diligent, and authentic. We must strive to be moral characters if we want to live in a better world.

Grilling Season

 
It’s grilling season, and chances are you’ll be making that ever-important cookout decision: hot dog or hamburger? The dog has always been man's best friend. Continue the tradition at hotdogueculture.com where we feed the inspiration with good taste. One of the redeeming qualities of a hot dog is they supply protein and a small amount of iron.
How to make the healthiest hot dog at home: Choose one with 370 mg of sodium or less; skip the white bun and opt for a 100% whole-wheat bun-instead you’ll get more fiber and better flavor too; poultry dogs tend to be leaner if you prefer. And, finally, don’t forget to make homemade chili sauce with hotdogueculture spice mix and then savor the delicious taste. Hmmm, so good!

The Difference Between Forgiveness and Trust

Forgiveness is not the same as trust. Forgiveness is instantaneous, trust is not. You can forgive someone immediately, but trust is build over time. Forgiveness is based on grace and trust is earned by good deeds. You don’t have to earn forgiveness but you do have to earn trust.
 
The majority of people don’t want to forgive because they think they have to trust the person that wronged them. Not true. To restore a relationship there needs to be remorse, regret and the rebuilding of trust. Remember, you can forgive but you don’t have to go back to the way it was.
