  They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, but many of us are better able to deal with people at a distance. We tend to get along much better! All hell breaks loose the moment we have to live with them every day.  There are instances where we have to move in with a partner, friend, or relative. Sometimes due to circumstances beyond our control.  While many are open and warm at first. There are times when we can tell that the royal treatment is coming to an end and we have overstayed our welcome.  Below I'll share with you some signs that someone is getting a bit tired of you.  1. There's a change of attitude.  There are visible changes in their attitude. Their tone is harsher and their body language is unwelcoming. They get mad for reasons you sometimes don't know about.  Most often, a passive-aggressive type of behavior. They'll slam the doors. Bang the pots and pans. Sulk for hours, without ever saying a word to you.  2. You seem to be a burden to them. Everythin

  How do you know when to end a friendship? It's good to have people who you can be yourself around. No facade. No pretense. No imitation. Just the real- raw you. Real friends are priceless and we know all too well that they are few and when we do find them; they are to be treasured. However, we don't always know what people's true intentions are, and sometimes the people we call our friends aren't who we think they are. As time goes on we'll notice some disconnect in the friendship that we either need to fix or break off permanently.  Today, I want to share with you 11 signs that your friendship is coming to an end and you may need to break it off soon. What would cause you to end a friendship? 1. They act like they're your spokesperson. Nothing is wrong if you allow your friend to put in a word or two now and then,  but it's a serious cause for concern when this behavior becomes a pattern and they act as if you're not intellectual to speak up for yours

  "I give so much and get nothing in return." “Selflessness. It should be the basis of every relationship. If a person truly cares about you, they'll get more pleasure from the way they make you feel, rather than the way you make them feel.” ―  Colleen Hoover "Can a car travel a mile on empty?" How then do you expect to go the extra mile for  others without filling your needs first? " Annette Kinglock-Murray  Do you feel like you're over-giving? There isn't anything wrong with giving and sharing with others. It's good when we're able to bless the lives of others through our various acts of giving. The flip side of this is we sometimes run ourselves dry for the sake of others.  Today,  I want to share with you some signs that you're giving too much for nothing in return and this is not to say you should always give with expectations. I'm ONLY making the point that in your giving you should always fill yourself first so you don't r

“But one thing I’ve learned since becoming an adult is that failure is the best teacher of all. Try it. Try it all. If you’re not good at it… try some more. Being embarrassed is not the end of the world, but maybe being afraid is.” ―  Joanna Cannon,  “Advice to my younger self: 1 Start where you are with what you have 2 Try not to hurt other people 3 Take more chances 4 If you fail, keep trying” ―  Germany Kent At the time of this post, I'm young but not so young. I've been around long enough to know the ins and outs of life. I've had my fair struggles in life and who knows what else lies ahead. Today, I just want to give God thanks that I've made it this far.   I want to share with you some hard truths that I'd teach my younger self. Of course, I can't turn back the hands of time and I'm not whining about how my life has been. It's rather a moment of truth that will help someone navigate the journeys of life.  1. Not all dreams come true. Positivity doe

  I've been foolish, But I've learned, There's just a thin line between Sanity and insanity, Good virtues and sin, There's a wild side, Sometimes too rebellious to tame, Temptation doesn't wear a sulking  face, It knows how well to bait the hook, Sweet to the mouth,  Bitter in the belly, Fire and desire, It will cost more than, You bargain for, At worst death! I used to be hung up on Everything I'd never dare to do. Out of class. Dirty.  Taboo. Yet, at my strongest,  I became weak, Compromising  values for Misty moments of pleasure, A slave to the flesh, Never wanting to be free, I've been foolish, But I've learned, Experiences teach wisdom, Time past doesn't change regret, The follies of the heart, Aren't that simple to forget, No matter how strong you think you are, Temptation is everywhere, May God lead you through an escape!

Feel like you're above them so they put you down to feel better about themselves. The greatest people have haters for a reason, so take it as a compliment. Haters gonna hate.” ―  Jeanette Coron “One negative voice aimed at me has the incredible power to drown out a thousand positive ones. One of the greatest things I can achieve is to never let it.” ―  Dan Pearce “In all spheres of life, there are constraints. You have to develop your strategy to overcome each constraint.” ―  Lailah Gifty Akita There's hardly any escape from the harsh judgment of people. They're just about everywhere. Online, at work, at home, etc. Sometimes we try so hard to put our best foot forward, only to have those efforts snuff out by other people.  Some people take pleasure in putting down others. We can't always shut them
