REST

-
Rest is good. The dictionary defines it as 

Rest [n.]: Hence, freedom from everything which wearies or disturbs; peace; security. 

Well, the world is not really so, but best to go for a life of rest as much as you can. The bedroom is a symbol of rest. 

A place of sleep where your mind is removed from all troubles. What if that translate into your reality. Consider a life that replicate these kind of bedroom. You can create it. A few tips that may help. 



1. Don't pursue what will destroy you. Consider well. Ask, "will it come back to haunt me or destroy me ?" If yes, leave it.
2. Sorrow is when you miss what you do not have, peace and rest is when you celebrate what you have. Stop being sorrowful over what you do not have, consider what you have and enjoy it. Tell your mind to enjoy the moment. Arrange that small house to be as comfortable as you can make it. The truth is this, no matter how long you live in this world, you can never have everything, so why stress your mind. Look at what you have, enjoy it and be at rest. I live alone, but I make my abode as comfortable and non boring as I can make it. While waiting for more of my expectations, I enjoy the moment. 
3. The truth is, unless you deliberately create your own rest, this world has no rest. Keep away from troubles that does not concern you. If you are not into politics, stop speaking for or against one party, it's not worth it. All parties are the same. Stop attracting unnecessary enemies. There is nothing one political party is accusing the other of that they are not guilty of. History has shown that there is nothing new under the Sun, it has always been and will continue to be. Give yourself rest of mind. Listen to the news, smile and go to bed. Why ? Tomorrow will bring the same news. You cannot change it. Rest. 
4. If you are single, you are lucky, you can plan the way you want. If badly married and in marital mess, you have a big problem. Well, I advice you pray and ask GOD for help. 
5. Good deeds are therapeutic. Do as much as you can to as many as you can. It can aid your rest.
6. Let people have rest and peace from you, be a person of peace. A way to attract peace. When people come around you, be as endearing as you can, it can help your rest.
7. Spot troubles and troublesome people and let them be. Don't wake the bad. Let them go. Rest.

Well, Krestal was prosecuted and went to jail.  Alero steadfastly testified against him in the court. Other girls he had humiliated and either quietly bore the shame or were denied of justice due to Krestal's ability to buy his way out of justice were brought in by the prosecution to also testify against him. The FBI was determined to send him to jail for a very long time. Some of Krestal's rough friends wanted to scare the witnesses away with threats, intimidation and various attacks; but the FBI rounded them up and also sent them to jail. All the witnesses were placed on constant surveillance for their protection. Non was hurt in any way.

They can diagnose you and do your health check, measure your calories,...the list is endless. They even have audio functi...
