Misery Wants Company
That's what he used to say about her. "Misery Wants Company". Her own father tried to warn me about her. He basically told me that she would just drag me down with her. She did this to everyone, not because she was sadistic and wanted to see people’s failures and sadness. It was more because she felt better and more comfortable if everyone around her was as unhappy as she was. I kind of always knew he was right but I'm not sure I fully understood what he meant.

Confidence and Anxiety are Polar Opposites, and Why It’s Important to Balance the Two

Element of Hope
As the old saying goes: There is a calm before the storm. Most do not understand at that exact moment of calm, the next step you take determines a chain reaction. Too much and you are drowning, too little and you are deprived of an element that you need to survive, yet finding balance requires so much more than you could ever imagine.

A Parable of Hope
The child had heard much about a new friend that she would meet someday soon. There was no way to know when this friend would arrive, only that the child could expect it sometime soon. Though she had not yet met this new friend, the child had old friends, and they kept her company.

Raw
Dawn seemed to be blinded by all the love and support that she thought she needed, she failed to see what she had right in front of her. Inwardly, she longed for the support that birthed a sense of self. The sense of knowing that she could do anything and be anyone. This desire blinded her to the nurturing she had presently. She idolized the love and support she thought everyone else had. So much so that she missed out on the fact that she already possessed it. Funny, how when life throws a curveball, suddenly the eye sees what was there all along.

Why are Cancers labelled criers?
“Cancer, when was the last time you cried? Did you cry today?” A TikTok user mocks. I love watching Zodiac related Tiktoks. I find it amazing that astrology and spirituality have taken over the platform and are bringing people together when I myself have felt alone in regards to the topic.

Half, and Half
Many a pop-starlet was born under the sign of Sagittarius, and though this vocation could not be farther from my life path to date, it is one of the main reasons I have always identified with my sun sign. To be a Sagittarius is to be a performer, whether on the stage of your bedroom floor, or in London’s O2 stadium. Sagittarius has a voice; our challenge is to learn how to use it.

Feeling Better through Bibliotherapy
When you’re in a difficult phase of your life, it can be overwhelming to think of where to begin to dig yourself out again. Sometimes you can feel so low that all the usual advice – exercise, sleep, see friends, set goals – can seem very overwhelming. Reading can feel like a chore for those that don’t enjoy it. But, if you’re someone who loves to be sucked into a good book, bibliotherapy can be a perfect way to move through grief, stress, or a hard time in your life.

Balancing Self-Love with the Desire for Self-Improvement in 2021
New Year, New Lockdown The beginning of a new year brings with it the promise of a fresh start. A chance to reflect on our shortcomings, diagnose any weaknesses in our character, and set up new goals and habits for the year ahead. Of course there is no real reason why January is a better moment to try and do this than any other time of the year. But the turning over of a new calendar seems to bring with it the expectation that things can and will change.
