Some people deserve the world and some people just don't. Some people get what they want easily, some work hard for it, and some don't get anything at all. We all know that life isn't fair. We live it, breathe it, see it, and participate in it. So why do we constantly think we are…
The phrase goes: forgive and forget. Stop feeling the resent you feel towards someone and put it in the back of your mind. That person's mistake that caused you anger or hurt is gone forever and you move on with your life. I've never really been one to forgive because a lot of people ask…
If at first you don't succeed, try and try again. This doesn't apply to failing relationships, so stop trying and trying again when you already know it's not going to work out.
