“What I’m looking for is not out there, it is in me.” ~Helen Keller I used to think that life should be easy, and if it wasn’t easy, then I was doing it wrong. I’m older and wiser now, and I’ve learned that if it is hard, that means I am probably doing something right.
“I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.” ~ Hafiz of Shiraz When we think of illness, we don’t usually equate it with loneliness; however, there seems to be a huge connection between the two conditions. The fact is, when dealing with health
We’ve all experienced the post-breakup rough spot where all feels pretty hopeless. It can be easy to give up on love and putting yourself out there again can seem like an impossible task. Back in 2015, Emma Perrier was dealing with a broken heart of her own, and like many of us in the throes
Making ends meet is nearly impossible without a job. Even those with jobs can find themselves struggling to make ends meet as cheques are delayed, or altogether missing. Bruno Rafael Paiva found himself in a tough spot. He worked as a substitute teacher at a Brazillan high school and had been filling in for someone
Nosebleeds are usually pretty common and nothing to seriously worry about – except when they are. For example, in Sophie Clayton’s case, her nosebleed led to memory loss. Sophie Clayton had a pretty good life. She had just finished school and already had a job lined up, and lived with her parents, who she was
Having 12 cases of mini eggs on hand sounds like the makings of a grandiose Easter hunt or the ultimate way to soothe a sweet tooth, but for Josie Rudderham, the confections have put her in quite the crunch. “We have joked about pouring them into a bathtub and doing a photo shoot because there
Do I need to wear a mask if I’m 6 feet (1.8 m) away from others? Health experts recommend wearing masks in public and keeping your distance from others in most cases, but whether you should do both could depend on the situation. “There’s no invisible force field at 6 feet,” said Saskia Popescu, an
We are turning 30 this year. It feels like just yesterday when we rollerbladed around the garage with Spice Girls playing in our Walkmans. We are getting old enough to become irrelevant. Still, we think we are cool because we know what Harry Potter house we belong to. This is becoming shameful, since J.K Rowling
Earlier this year, I was staying at a cabin in the desert. I had gone there to be alone, but as soon as I arrived, a black cat with piercing green eyes decided to follow me around the property. Having grown up with two golden retrievers, I am not naturally a cat person. Despite my
It’s late October. Halloween is just around the corner, and Thanksgiving will be here before you know it, and Christmas is basically in five minutes. Soon, the trees will no longer be golden and orange and red — they’ll be barren and bare. Soon, December 31 will be here, and so will a new year.
“When solving problems, dig at the root instead of just hacking at the leaves.” ~Anthony J. D’Angelo This is an account of my experience using marijuana as a device to help my anxiety, why I’m glad I had it, and why I no longer need it. This story isn’t an advocation for or against smoking
“You can’t stop negative thoughts from popping into your head, but you can choose to stop letting them control you and your life.” ~Lori Deschene Some of us are more prone to negative thoughts. They start out subtle and quiet, a small voice in the background of your life, until suddenly they’re shouting at you

If you’ve been wondering what Fergie has been up to lately, you’re probably not alone. In the fast and intense world of Hollywood, it’s not unusual for celebrities to slip in and out of the public’s radar.

During the pandemic, social distancing has been integral to preventing risks of catching and spreading COVID-19. It is especially important for the more vulnerable population, already battling an illness.

There are countless songs, books and movies that reminds us of the reality that sometimes, we can’t control with whom we fall in love. No one knows that better than Emmy Abrahamson, a Swedish actress who fell in love with the least likely person anyone would expect her to Emmy was at the top of
When Kate Zimberg joined F5 Networks in March 2019, she entered an organization that had seen its share of recent change at the executive level.
