source Greetings everyone! Everyone of us are stuck at life point somewhere. Some of us are struggling in life, some are doing nothing, some are doing job, or some are studying to get professional degree.

The feelings are lasting. The problems, the couple conflicts! They are a thorny issue for a few. If someone loves us, they will be willing to forgive and go through all the crises with us. He will wait

Seriously, I don't understand why we keep blaming clothing whenever we talk about sexual abuse or harassment. Clothing has nothing to do with bad intentions. It is all about the mindset of the person.

‎Hello Hives, ‎ ‎There was a time when I believed that making more money would automatically solve most of my problems. ‎ ‎I thought, “If my income can just increase, things will become easier.” ‎ ‎And

That was a good wedding. I am tired from it though. What I liked about this particular wedding was while there were some speeches, there wasn't a lot of program. Instead, the focus was more on people spending

How do You see life? Even when we are broken, we become art when we are in front of the right person. There are relationships that seem to have a future... but only because one keeps them connected to

When I hear that bad intentions are caused because of the clothes, I really feel angry about it. Because how can someone be so cruel and say something like that? If you're mature enough then you should

There are experiences that can only be understood by going through them personally. We know that life is not easy; there are no simple ways to bypass fear and the feeling of being unprotected. Every time

For the second time in my life, today I will wear a bowtie. They call it a "mirri" in Finnish, which also means cat - I suppose because it is a bit like whiskers. I didn't own a bowtie because

Times have changed, and sometimes I think they’ve changed too much, and in many cases for the worse. I usually travel by bus; in fact, I’ve done so all my life, ever since I was a child. I very rarely

What if you give yourself the trophy today?. Every time I close a day, a week or start a new one, I make a retrospective of what I have achieved. I have accustomed my mind to collecting small trophies

We Talk Friday (WTF) This is a semi-regular series that I will run on Fridays to hold discussions on a current topic from the week gone. The aim is to keep them light and conversational, though some might

Each day in there are a few news articles from the national broadcaster pushed out in English, with many really not so relevant to anything nor going in-depth, but can be interesting. Like today, there

While we tend not to work in our own best interests, I was just wondering how many of us believe we work in the best interest of others. Are we do-gooders, or are we selfish? Do we go out of our way to

A one-track mind is an idiom used to describe someone who thinks, talks, or cares about only one particular subject or goal, ignoring everything else. I was just watching footage of the flooding and landslides

Unfortunately, I can't get rid of all the remnants of the previous owner's art, though he fancied himself a bit of a Bansky it seems and used stencils and poor brush technique to paint. I would have got
