What does it mean when a person who has passed away appears in your dream?

  Sooner or later, everyone loses someone close to them – it’s, unfortunately, a part of life. However, the passing of specific loved ones can affect us more than we ever envisioned. For example, have you ever had a person no longer alive appear in your dreams? The meaning behind them appearing in your dreams could be something you never thought of… Losing a loved one is very hard, and how you process the grief is up to each person. Some shed many tears, while many become silent and go retreat into themselves. Others try to avoid the subject or behave outwardly without reaction. But there is one behavior many have in common – having dreams of the loved ones who have passed away. When it comes to what we dream at night, our subconscious is in charge, and if you’ve ever dreamed of a deceased person, it may have meaning. So, can dreams carry messages from loved ones who have died? According to Patrick McNamara, associate Professor of neurology and psychiatry at the Boston University S...

He was ”molested” as a teen and ”blackmailed” into losing his virginity aged 15

 

He was ”knocked unconscious” and sexually assaulted by a man in the back of a van as a teenager.

Then, he was ”blackmailed” into losing his virginity at the age of 15.

Against all odds, Matthew McConaughey has taken his revenge — and come out stronger.

Oscar winner McConaughey divulged the information in his new memoir Greenlights, where he also confessed that he used to believe he was going to hell for having sex before marriage.

“I was blackmailed into having sex for the first time when I was 15. I was certain I was going to hell for the premarital sex,” wrote the 50-year-old.

“Today, I am merely certain that I hope that’s not the case.”

McConaughey, who has three children, also wrote: “I was molested by a man when I was 18 while knocked unconscious in the back of a van.”



Yet despite the harrowing experience, the Dallas Buyer’s Club star remains upbeat and positive.  “I’ve never felt like a victim,” he said. “I have a lot of proof that the world is conspiring to make me happy.”

Indeed, McConaughey’s career has gone from strength to strength since he became a recognized name through Dazed and Confused (1992), and he took home an Oscar for his role as Ron Woodroof in Dallas Buyer’s Club.

That, on top of equally invigorating performances in flicks like Interstellar and TV shows like True Detective, has propelled him to stardom. These days, he’s a household name in Hollywood.


 

Yet the 50-year-old remains a compassionate and considerate human being. Back in 2016, he supported the University of Texas’ “Rape Elimination Program” by shuttling students home from campus after dark.

He was photoed driving students home as he worked to raise awareness as to the prevention of sexual assault.

Longhorns take care of each other, and it's 'safe' to say Matthew McConaughey agrees. Don't forget to use SURE Walk when traveling home late at night; you never know who might pick you up! #BeSafe #SafeChats

“Longhorns take care of each other, and it’s ‘safe’ to say Matthew McConaughey agrees,” the photo reads.

“Don’t forget to use SURE Walk when traveling home late at night; you never know who might pick you up!”

As for his memoir, it looks to be jam-packed full of interesting tit-bits for fans. In the book, he also discusses his parents and their turbulent marriage.

McConaughey told how his mom, Kay, once broke his father’s nose and held a knife at him during a fight, before the pair had sex on the kitchen floor. The couple were reportedly married three times and divorced twice.



I don’t know about you, but I for one absolutely love Matthew McConaughey and think he has a heart of gold.

It might have taken him some time to speak out about the abuse he suffered when younger, but doing so will certainly empower others to do the same.

The fact that young people can be molested and abused by their elders in this day and age is completely unacceptable. For too long instances have gone under the radar and those responsible have gotten away with their crimes.

No more. I hope that through people like Matthew McConaughey speaking out, the taboo can be shattered and anyone who’s been a victim of exploitation or abuse can have the confidence to come forward and seek help.

Share this article if you’re a Matthew McConaughey fan, and if you stand with all victims of abuse!

Common back-pain drug may be linked to higher dementia risk, large study finds

  A pain medication that millions of Americans rely on for chronic back pain may come with a hidden risk: a significantly higher chance of developing dementia or other cognitive problems, according to a major new study. Compared 26,000 adults Researchers from Case Western Reserve University and several partner institutions analyzed medical records from 68 health systems across the U.S., comparing 26,414 adults prescribed gabapentin for persistent low-back pain with a matched group who had similar pain — but didn’t take the drug. Their finding was sobering: Adults who received six or more gabapentin prescriptions were 29% more likely to be diagnosed with dementia and 85% more likely to develop mild cognitive impairment (MCI) within 10 years. The risk wasn’t limited to older adults. In fact, it was younger Americans who saw the most dramatic increases. Younger adults saw shocking risk increases For people normally considered decades away from dementia: Ages 35–49 taking gabapentin ha...

Queen Camilla sends clear message to Trump with ‘key’ clothing detail

  King Charles III and Queen Camilla arrived in the United States on Monday for a four-day state visit, stepping into a moment where relations between the U.S. and the U.K. have grown noticeably strained. In the past, Donald Trump has openly expressed admiration for the British Royal  Family. During a visit to the U.K. in September alongside Melania Trump, he spoke warmly about the long-standing alliance between the two nations.Family “The word ‘special’ does not begin to do it justice,” Trump said at the time. “We’re like two notes in one chord, or two verses of the same poem – each beautiful on its own, but really meant to be played together.” Since then, however, the tone has shifted. Tensions have escalated, particularly in relation to disagreements over international policy, including the conflict involving Iran. Trump has publicly criticized Keir Starmer, calling him a “loser” for refusing to support U.S. military action and remarking that he was “no Churchill.” He also ...
