What family means to you??

F

Family is everything to me. Family is a home with no physical limitations, a form of love that no one else could give or possibly understand, and most importantly, freedom. That’s what family means to me.

Me...your real friend

I am life You are Life We are Life

Some people can say life sucks

while others can say life is beautiful

or still life is full of surprises

Yes...it is...we know

Life is not easy
and it will never be.
but can remember you have some friends
and one of them is ME

Gossip: When To Hold Your Tongue

Why do people gossip?

Obviously everyone has a different reason for gossiping. I have found that people gossip for one of the following reasons:To fill in the void in conversation - Lack of general knowledge - To belong to a group  - Inferiority Complex - Taking revenge on people who constantly put you down - Unmasking and showing the real side of people -  Show the real side of people who get undeserved praise -  To get attention – gossip sells!
