So, in my humble opinion, if that's the case, why not make it as pleasant as possible for all parties involved? The account that follows is the story of a daughter of divorced parents who feels she has reached the tipping point and can no longer maintain a relationship with h…

I'll say it again for the benefit of those in the back: revenge is always best served cold. They ought to be completely taken aback by it and not notice anything unusual, and only then will you be able to genuinely experience the fulfilling sense of success and achievement. But what about unintentional retaliation—does it fit the bill? Are you still experiencing that amazing sense of fulfillment and contentment? The answer is unquestionably yes!

As appropriate for the Christmas season, keep in mind the famous saying that says ‘It's not the gift, but the thought that counts’.

The story below involves a woman who aspires to get better in the…

We can have the purest of intentions, but when pushed past our limits, there is no stopping the fury and rage from running through our veins. So, when being tested, should we back down and surrender, or on the contrary, should we put on the fight of a lifetime? The story below is an account of a creative couple who made the decision to put on the fight of a lifetime. The couple refuses to give in to their outrageous neig…

Saying no to the dress

Being in a professional setting requires one to interact with a variety of people. Some of which, we don't particularly like. That being said, it is important to remain composed at all times.

But today, we're going to address something bigger, and that's the subject of Sharon. Sharon is the gossip queen of the hospital. She wanders the…
