Man Dies On Street While New Yorkers Walk By. Either this is yet another case of our society’s numbness to tragedy or this is yet another day of New Yorkers passing by their homeless…or what they THOUGHT was a homeless man sleeping on the street. But it was really a man who had just helped a woman who was being mugged keep her purse. The mugger turned to him and stabbed him several times before running off. And even after the man was stabbed, he continued in his Superman role by pursuing the man in a high speed foot chase back down the street. Unfortunately, the unidentified superhero collapsed on the street in front of an apartment building where a surveillance camera picked up the entire incident. MSNBC show the chilling video along with other incidents throughout the country that have lead psychiatrists to come up with the term “Bystander Effect” to rationalize the stupidity and pure heartlessness of our society. The man layed on the sidewalk for over an hour with people walking by and offering no assistance. He later died. Unusual or Normal? What do you think? Are we becoming more and more heartless? I have to admit, I was watching a commercial where a girl showed up for BET’s American Idol for gospel, Sunday Best, and her voice started to quiver as she told the camera, “I came here in these house shoes because I lost my home. I’ve lost everything and this is all that I have” and I didn’t feel the sympathy that I thought her story should’ve summoned. My feeling immediately went to, not again! How about you? Are you getting numb as the Extreme Home Makeovers and American Idols pile up?
New Book on Infidelity: ‘So He Cheated, Now What?’ You can’t turn on the news without being bombarded with headlines about celebrity marriages dealing with infidelity, betrayal and ending in divorce. Regardless of which situation, the public asks the same questions: Should the unsuspecting spouse stay or walk away? Whose fault was it? Five days after their third child was born, Nicole Cleveland found out her husband had an affair and was leaving the family. She thought this couldn’t happen to them because they were heavily involved in the church – he was in the ministry, she served on various auxiliaries and they paid their tithes and offerings regularly. As a wife, mother and employee that was used to living on two incomes, she was suddenly faced with living on one income and providing for three children. In “So He Cheated, Now What?” Cleveland shares her personal story of raw emotions, tears she cried from not understanding, loneliness she felt because there was no family around and even embarrassment. “So He Cheated, Now What?” is a guide to overcoming an affair in your marriage or relationship. Cleveland says, “Taking him back was the easy part. Rebuilding the trust after the affair, took a lot of work.” She says, “couples should stop sweeping their issues under the rug; only dealing with them firsthand will allow true healing to begin.” In the midst of her pain, Cleveland found her purpose. Her mission now is helping others by sharing her testimony. Women, families and lives are shattered everyday due to adultery. Her mission is to let others know they aren’t alone as victims of adultery and perhaps her experience, can make a difference with someone else. “So He Cheated, Now What?” provides action steps to restoring a broken marriage. Cleveland says, “This book is to help couples rebuild love and trust. It’s a process to restoring a marriage, but well worth the effort.” “So He Cheated, Now What?” can be purchased at www.nicoleconline.com or www.sohecheated.com.
