You know those days, when you wake up and just wonder… “Why?”
- “Why do I need to get out of bed today?” - “I don’t like my job, why do I have to spend the time/effort to get up and get dressed, only to go sit in a cubicle for 8 hours?”
- “Why has life dealt me these cards? I’m sick of being where I am.”
These feelings are natural, and aren’t anything to be concerned about. Most of … Read More

So, I'm tired of hearing this over and over again. You have these people who, just because they came out of a long-term marriage or relationship, think they have the right to judge a person who's single and over 30, or 40 for that matter.

Here’s some life advice for singles. Without sadness, happiness wouldn’t mean as much. It wouldn’t be as sweet to know that someone really loves you unless you’ve tasted the bitterness of rejection.

Both of these are commonly used apologies, but do they really accomplish the purpose of actually apologizing? Or are they instead just a way around taking responsibility?
