As we’re getting older, I find that people are changing. Not so much in their age, but rather in the area of giving. Perhaps it’s because we are all raised differently. We come with a set of different ideas and experiences. One example is being able to give and to receive gifts no matter what…

For a Lifetime
You do everything you can to move on from past relationships. To some extent, we have all done it. We keep ourselves busy by spending time with friends, working, even meeting new people. It becomes more work to get over a relationship then it was being in the relationship, but what happens when time goes…
Staying in a Relationship
I often wonder what happens when you find someone that you really like, but the relationship ends or worse, it’s not even given a chance to start. Where do those feelings go? Do we hide them away for the next person? Or do we pretend that our feelings no longer exist? I like to call…
The Ultimate Question
Relationships can be funny at times. We can never tell who we will meet, or what the outcome will be of a relationship. I’m finding that either people are open to a relationship or they closed to it. I often feel that if we are open to relationships of any kind then we can find…

A Box of Tissues
I watch movies where two people break up and in the end, rekindle their relationships. I wish it were that easy. In reality, there is pain and hurt involved. Getting over someone isn’t all roses and lilies. Break-ups can turn a person’s world upside down. Think about in your life how many times that you…
Finding Answers
About four years ago, Rebecca had met someone, Jack. He seemed liked a nice person. Not one of those weird ones that you have to question them right down to their social security numbers. They had met through a mutual acquaintance. Over the next few years, she had limited contact with me because of their…
A Single Person’s Guide to Valentine’s Day

It’s not about having a date it’s instead just as good to surround yourself with a group of friends. Valentine’s Day has been symbolic for love. However,…
