Do You Know the Truth Behind The Small Scar On Upper Left Arm and Its Real Meaning?

The small round scar on the upper part of our arm is very common if you are a 90s kid. People who were born before 2000 A.D. are likely to have this scar on their upper arm. It is not a thing to be scared of anyway. But it has a very mysterious secret which you might have heard about in your childhood. And with time, the topic of this concern faded off and so did the concentration towards this particular scar.

The reason why we have this scar is because of the immunity from small pox which used to be a deadly viral disease at a point of time all over the world. This disease caused death to over a million people around the world until the vaccination of it was found to prevent it. The vaccine was perfectly accurate and effective and the number of deaths decreased eventually to zero now.

The vaccine was given to people in the form of an injection on the upper arm, preferably left. Because of this injection people used to get a swelling bulge pouring out for 2-3 days. The swelling wears off but after 2-4 weeks emerges again.

This time it turns into a water bubble and oozes liquid out of it and then dries up and starts healing. But this process leaves a scar. And that scar is what you see on your arm till now.

But small pox was eradicated from the entire world by 1998. The vaccines were no longer made or given to people. And that is why people who are born above this year do not have this scar on their upper arm. Shockingly interesting isn’t it?

This Divorced Man Wrote Some Beautiful Marriage Advice Every Man Should Read.

A newly-divorced man revealed on Facebook the advice he wished he’d known before tying the knot. Gerald Rogers, who works as a motivational speaker in Utah, wrote down 20 tips for men on how to save a marriage. Here’s the text in full.

“Obviously, I’m not a relationship expert. But there’s something about my divorce being finalized this week that gives me perspective of things I wish I would have done different… After losing a woman that I loved, and a marriage of almost 16 years, here’s the advice I wish I would have had” :

1. NEVER STOP COURTING. NEVER STOP DATING.

NEVER EVER take that woman for granted. When you asked her to marry you, you promised to be that man that would OWN HER HEART and to fiercely protect it. This is the most important and sacred treasure you will ever be entrusted with. SHE CHOSE YOU. Never forget that, and NEVER GET LAZY in your love.

2. PROTECT YOUR OWN HEART.

Just as you committed to being the protector of her heart, you must guard your own with the same vigilance. Love yourself fully, love the world openly, but there is a special place in your heart where no one must enter except for your wife. Keep that space always ready to receive her and invite her in, and refuse to let anyone or anything else enter there.

3. FALL IN LOVE OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

You will constantly change. You’re not the same people you were when you got married, and in five years you will not be the same person you are today. Change will come, and in that you have to re-choose each other everyday. SHE DOESN’T HAVE TO STAY WITH YOU, and if you don’t take care of her heart, she may give that heart to someone else or seal you out completely, and you may never be able to get it back. Always fight to win her love just as you did when you were courting her.

4. ALWAYS SEE THE BEST IN HER.

Focus only on what you love. What you focus on will expand. If you focus on what bugs you, all you will see is reasons to be bugged. If you focus on what you love, you can’t help but be consumed by love. Focus to the point where you can no longer see anything but love, and you know without a doubt that you are the luckiest man on earth to be have this woman as your wife.

5. IT’S NOT YOUR JOB TO CHANGE OR FIX HER.

Your job is to love her as she is with no expectation of her ever changing. And if she changes, love what she becomes, whether it’s what you wanted or not.

6. TAKE FULL ACCOUNTABILITY.

Take full accountability for your own emotions. It’s not your wife’s job to make you happy, and she CAN’T make you sad. You are responsible for finding your own happiness, and through that your joy will spill over into your relationship and your love.

7. NEVER BLAME HER IF YOU GET ANGRY.

NEVER BLAME your wife If YOU get frustrated or angry at her, it is only because it is triggering something inside of YOU. They are YOUR emotions, and your responsibility. When you feel those feelings take time to get present and to look within and understand what it is inside of YOU that is asking to be healed. You were attracted to this woman because she was the person best suited to trigger all of your childhood wounds in the most painful way so that you could heal them: when you heal yourself, you will no longer be triggered by her, and you will wonder why you ever were.

8. ALLOW YOUR WOMAN TO JUST BE.

When she’s sad or upset, it’s not your job to fix it, it’s your job to HOLD HER and let her know it’s ok. Let her know that you hear her, and that she’s important and that you are that pillar on which she can always lean. The feminine spirit is about change and emotion and like a storm her emotions will roll in and out, and as you remain strong and unjudging she will trust you and open her soul to you: DON’T RUN-AWAY WHEN SHE’S UPSET. Stand present and strong and let her know you aren’t going anywhere. Listen to what she is really saying behind the words and emotion.

9. BE SILLY.

Don’t take yourself so damn seriously. Laugh. And make her laugh. Laughter makes everything else easier.
