Lately I’ve been thinking about choices.
A lot of my life has been about questioning how I am going to make a difference in this unpredictable world…
Sommaren är i full blom och vi hoppas att du får njuta av ledighet, vila, reflektion och bra väder.
Dessvärre verkar det vara lättare sagt än gjort. Kanske tillhör även du skaran som lätt trissar upp…
Hydrogen, when burned, produces water. 50–50 anger, tears.
Why do I do this? There are so many other sports I could do. Why couldn’t I be good at baseball? I’m about to be in a world of hurt — remind me again why I signed up for this? Okay, stop thinking like this. You’ve been through this a million times, this one is no different…
Part One | Part Three
Just joining? Dive in! No need to catch up—shelf parts one and three for now.
Many folks are going to be extremely pissed off about this article, if for no other reason than we humans have been hardwired against what I’m about to say. You see the ego is the most primitive foundation of one’s mindset. Its chief function is to promote survival at all cost and by any means…
I like this piece; it stirred in me the need to respond. I did notice the replies and those who did find love and/or perhaps got married. It is interesting the different kinds of responses depending upon where someone is at in their own life.
This article got me reminiscing about a conversation I had with a man who lives in…
TESTS, FRIENDSHIP AND THE WOOLWICH FLYING RAT
I am in hospital. It is spring 1981. It seems to me that I have been in hospital like, almost forever. I spent a couple of months working as welfare assistant down at the Depot, but now I am…

In marketing, sales or persuasion we often face conflicting thoughts. Am I going too far or not…
It’s true, avoiding certain things — uncomfortable conversations, paying bills, apologizing for something you did — is a bad idea.
A wise man once told me a long time ago “Everything you want is outside of your comfort zone”. I thought I knew what he meant and part of me certainly did at the time. But now as I am going through this life, I am realizing more and more how and why these words are true.
Don’t leave out CONTEXT.
We must set goals and lay out plans in the context of our personal lives.
If you are trying to accomplish things in the margins of your life that others are doing with full-time effort, adjust your plan accordingly.
“The fact is that most of the biggest catastrophes that we’ve witnessed rarely come from the information that is secret or hidden. It comes from information that is freely available and out there, but that we are wilfully blind to because we can’t handle, don’t want to handle the conflict that it…
Thinking back to when I was depressed and also in recovery, I had thoughts that “what if I died? What if I killed myself?” And thinking of what kept me alive. And also for the fact that I’m still alive and…

When it comes to lacking appetite, people may see people lacking it, eating food, thinking and believing with their eyes that we do have appetite and hunger. But that’s not the case here, I have lost some of my appetite since July…
For so many years from starting to wear makeup, I had hidden not only my inner and outer beauty, but also my true and real self. For years since I found a picture of Demi Lovato with no filter and inspiring her fans to go bare (natural), I set a goal for myself to work towards that along with…

Interview by Rebecca Davey
This interview originally appeared on She Said Notes.
May be, yes. But when I once had more than one job offer at the same time, I was honestly and genuinely freaking out and stressing.
I do get your point, though, that many people use bragging (or humblebragging — humble bragging? — ) to present themselves. I never really saw it that way, but I’m going to be more (self)…

“When something bites us, we bite back.” ~ Sharknado 2
Fasting has become a thing to do, lately. I’m really not the type of person to jump to do the latest thing; if anything, I tend to avoid the latest trend, but then I read Tim Ferriss’ “Tools of Titans”, (his latest book, in which he has collected the best parts of the interviews with amazing…
I thought about letting this pass with a sarcastic reply about you being civil, but I’m curious as to why this triggered such a belligerent response from you. Why use language such as “fucking skull”?
What I was exploring and alluding to is Canada’s Federal Bill C-16, which adds legal protection for “gender identity” and…
Comparing oneself to others is exhausting. We see what we don’t have presented in front of our eyes. The stress this produces is…

Моя история здесь — история моего настроения. Да, это не личный блог о путешествиях, красоте, еде… Короче, никакого вдохновения.
Я хочу писать здесь о том, как прошел день, что случилось, все события, ставшие причиной перемен настроения, физическое и психическое состояние. Сначала я думала купить бумажный дневник и писать…

It’s surprising, but it is also not at the same time. If you constantly bombard someone with hate, a logical reaction could be to give in, especially when your views are not widely accepted.
What they did to her is just a very public example of how you break a woman.
