A young woman waited at the airport and bought cookies to eat while reading. A man sat next to her and began eating her cookies without asking. Angry but unable to react, she watched as he ate each cookie until only one was left, which he shared with her. When boarding her flight, she discovered her untouched cookies still in her purse. She realized she had been mistaken and felt ashamed for wrongly accusing the man of eating her cookies.

4 things can not be recovered

Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
https://bit.ly/BabeSideDoll4u Babeside is a company that specializes in creating handcrafted reborn dolls. These dolls are designed to be incredibly lifelike, with realistic skin tones and hair, and they have become increasingly popular among collectors and those who use them for therapeutic purposes. At Babeside, we believe that our reborn dolls can provide comfort and healing to anyone who needs it.
The Healing Power of Babeside's Handcrafted Creations
Our reborn dolls are more than just beautiful pieces of art - they can also help alleviate stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. Studies have shown that holding or cuddling a soft object like a stuffed animal or a reborn doll can release oxytocin, which is often referred to as the "love hormone." This hormone helps us feel calm and relaxed, reducing feelings of stress and anxiety.
In addition to their physical benefits, reborn dolls can also offer emotional support. For many people, having something to care for and nurture can bring a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Reborn dolls can also serve as a reminder of happy memories or loved ones who have passed away.
1. “ A young lady was waiting for her flight in the boarding room of a big airport.
2. As she had to wait for hours, she decided to buy a book and to spend her time. She bought,a packet of cookies too.
3. She sat down on a armchair, in the VIP room of the airport, to rest and read in peace.
4. Beside the armchair where the packet of cookies were kept,a man sat down, opened his magazine and started reading.
5. When she ate the first cookie, the man took one also. She felt infuriated but didn’t say anything. She just thought: “ What a nerve! If I was in the mood I would punch his eye so that he does not forget this daring!”
6. To each cookie she ate, the man ate another one. That was letting her fume up with rage but she couldn’t react.
7. When only one cookie remained, she thought: “ah... What will this abused man do now?” Then, the man, divided the last cookie through the middle, giving her the other half.
8. Ah! That was too much! She was too angry! Then, she caught her book, caught her things and headed to the boarding place.
9. When she sat down on her seat, inside the plane, she looked into her purse to take her eyeglasses, and, for her surprise, her packet of cookies was there, untouched,closed!
10. She felt so ashamed!! She realized that she was the wrong one... She had forgotten that her cookies were kept in her purse.
11. The man divided his cookies with her, without feel infuriated, nervous or mad...
12. ...while she was very mad, thinking that he was dividing her cookies . And there was no more time to explain herself... Nor to apologize!”
