family
Family unites us; but it's also a challenge. All about fighting to stay together, and loving every moment of it.
Labrador & Shih Tzu
Dogs. They’re man’s best friend. These little creatures are adorable. They come in a variety of breeds. We have the Pit Bull (that are not a problem by the way, the owners are), the Husky, the Spaniel, or even the Terrier. Anyway, my point is that there’s a lot and they’re all different and they’re unique in their own special way. Imagine a group of Labradors. It doesn’t matter if they’re black or white (yes, I’m quoting my man…R.I.P. the King of Pop). They all fit in. They’re all a family even if they’re not related because they look the same. If you put one different dog in the mix, let’s say a Shih Tzu, it would be weird. This last one is going to be the only one that’s completely different from the rest of the group. Eventually, there’s probably going to be another dog like him that’s going to join in or the Labradors won’t even mind him anymore. What happens when two dogs, one Labrador and one Shih Tzu, fall in love? Please tell me that you already know about the birds and the bees. The result: a baby! Now, it’s not going to be a puppy that’s going to be 100 percent Labrador or Shih Tzu. It’s going to be half of each. The little one is going to stand out a lot more than a simple difference in breeds. It’s a mix of two different objects. When you mix two distant things you get a weird/unnatural result. The pup is going to be the easy target in the bunch, getting teased, pushed around, ridiculed, etc. At this point, you probably get what I’m trying to say. The fucked-up mix is going to be miserable and alone. Well, that crazy baby is me.

It Wasn't Me, It Was His Finances
For years finances have been known to be the root of many relationship troubles. It's like the big elephant in the room that seems to never go away. What's worse is that often times we as women don't even realize just how devastating it is to a man when his finances are not where he wants them to be.

4 Years and a Moment
How many mistakes do you usually make before you decide things need to change? How long does it take you to realize something's gotta give? Sometimes it takes us years to fully take responsibility for our own screw-ups. Sometimes, it takes a lifetime, and by then it's too late. By the time you realize you're to blame for the pain and loneliness in your life, everyone you loved and cared about have already moved on.

Is It Even Possible to End Bullying?
What’s happened to get me thinking - My beloved grandad passed in the summer of 2016, he was the epitome of a gentle giant. The kindest of souls. He would do anything for his family, his grandkids especially. I can remember at least 5 occasions during my forgetful teenage years when he would have to make the 40-minute round trip to let me into my house because I had ‘mislaid’ (aka, left in my going out-out clutch) my keys. Yet he did it, maybe with a tiny grumble and suggestion that I get just one “sensible” bag, a notion I’m still trying to get my head around… ONE bag? SENSIBLE?! It wasn’t just acts like this that made him a hero, his true heroism came to light after his passing, as we learnt how much he did for my Nan, how much he shielded from us.

Is Happiness Real?
Back in the day, couples stayed home. They stayed together in the evenings with their families. Spouses were close & they talked about their days & enjoyed each other’s company. Parents played with their children before bedtime. Why can’t it be like that now?

Strong Women Are Not That Strong. Top Story - August 2017.
Almost a decade ago, in my first year as a Psychology undergraduate student, a colleague of mine said to me, "You are good at picking up the big fights, but you never go for the little ones."It took me a long while to realise what he really wanted to say. Some years later, I had a little glimpse: I was always ready to save others but I would put myself at the very bottom of my "people to save today" list. I could easily move mountains for someone else, but I rarely could engage in something that would lead me to my own happiness. Actually, I would never even think about that detail.

9 and 1 Ways to Make the Best Impression on His Parents
As a rule of thumb, it’s important that you’ve been together at least six months and that you’re both comfortable talking about each other’s parents. If he seems hesitant about the idea, or you’re unnerved by the thought, then wait longer until you’re both at ease.

It's about to get real with this first post so I hope you're ready! "The Time Has Come." I Said... I've never been good at letting go; especially with people. Life is about change so we know that change is inevitable. Sometimes, change hurts. Let's bring a couple examples into the picture.
