Yesterday, I had a dream about a man who I went through a mutual breakup with two years ago. I thought I was over what could have been - and then that dream forced me to compare my current partner with this man, who has...

When I first began university, I knew a guy who wanted God to reward him for being religious by making him the president of the United States, but that is not as easy as it seems. Jesus said he who is least among you is...

When Bill Gates was the richest man in the world, he made the commitment to only leave his kids with ten million each upon his death. Warren Buffet’s wife was worth ten billion and did the same, leaving each child only...

A few years ago, I was in an unhappy relationship. The guy was never abusive or disloyal, but he was insecure, inept at conversation, lacking in confidence, extremely slow at text and messenger conversations, and did not...
