Keeping Friendship Loss in Perspective
 Through the power of Facebook, I was able to reconnect with a friend
from high school this morning. We were best friends in 9th and 10th
grade, but as things tend to happen in our teen years, our friendship
fell apart. I was devastated. I wrote through my pain even back then. I
recovered. I lost other friends through the years as I transitioned
into college, and later, as I transitioned into the woman I am today.
Each time I lost a friend, I learned a new lesson...

Signs of Distress
 When Tawnya's grandmother passed away after a long and painful illness
it sent the whole family into a tailspin. Grandma had been the
spiritual head of the family. She was the one that family members went
to when they wanted advice or comfort. With Grandma gone the family
stopped attending faith based meetings and stopped celebrating
spiritual holidays. Family traditions were dropped. Tawnya's mother
became somewhat bitter. Her father became mildly depressed. And her
sisters became somewhat withdrawn. But Tawnya was impacted most of all.

Identity Theft Happens
 Identity theft happens regardless of gender, age or ethnicity. In fact, a growing target is among university students.
Many people turn to identity recovery programs once they have become
the victim of identity fraud. Or they may attempt to "clean up" the
incident themselves. However, there are companies out there, such as ID Theft Assist,
that have your back - not just when you or your family get hit but also
prior to any id theft mishap. For just over $7 a month, you and your
family can have the protection you need.
