@chibird 🌻 Never apologize to others for their misunderstanding of who you are.

We’ve all had some feelings we couldn’t quite explain. However, did you know that at some point somewhere, someone may have named these very specific emotions? We’ll go through 10 of them, and if you like, there may even be a part two! Heimweh Heimweh is a word describing a strange mix of homesickness … More

If you have sex with someone from another country, make sure you give your best, cause you’ll be representing the whole country. Make your people proud.

This is both amazing and profoundly irritating - the exact writing equivalent of that thing artists do - you know, how they’ll mess up anything that’s on expensive paper and planned in every single detail but get them doodling during a boring lesson and suddenly they’re Michel-bloody-angelo.

I one time did a campaign in DND where the entire party woke up in a trash heap, memories wiped, when a man in shining white armor approached them. He helped them up, healed them, and helped them escape what was essentially the dump and find their way into the sunlight. He told them of the tale of a wicked king of immense power who bargained for his abilities from a demon, hoping to save his kingdom, and succumbed to the evil after his wife died. The wife had a pearl necklace, and it was the man’s duty to find those pearls, because they held a magic in them that could defeat the king.

This particular NPC was startlingly overpowered at first, right a long the levels of 6 while everyone else was just starting out, and he helped them along in the most dire situations, healing, defeating, and even resurrecting for them. There would be periods where he would be gone, and the party would have to face a crypt full of mummies together, or dive into the deepest parts of the ocean and retrieve these milky white pearls that would give them the ability to help their friend and defeat the wicked king. Slowly, their memories came back to them, and that was a stark comfort for them, but the entire time, there seemed to be a piece missing.

After they retrieved 5 pearls (they broke the 6th one), they journied with the man to the wicked king’s castle, and fought their way through endless ranks of guards, undead, demons, and even a lich, until they made their way to the sacred bed chamber of the king, that they all remembered the story of from before they had awoken in that garbage pile. They opened the doors, only to find it empty, save the usual furniture, marred by scratches and the ancient scrawl of demons. The man in the white armor sighed and walked into the bedroom.

And his armor changed from white to pitch black, and the whole party remembered suddenly. That was the face of the wicked king, the face that smiled at them whenever he healed them, the face that looked stern as they suggested stupids things to find the pearls. Apparently, in lapses of the demon’s control, the king had found a way to set him self up for defeat, by bringing his wive’s pearls along with brave, powerful warriors. Every absence he felt was where he had to return to the demon’s control and become the wicked king again, but he was determined to fight himself, to rid his own evil from the world, to end this curse of immortality and see his loved one again.

I made the party fight the final boss, and they saw the eyes of a friend.

They all cried, and I am no longer allowed to DM for them.

7 Reasons Why A Girl Doesn’t Want A Relationship

Dear guys (and girls, I’m not going to be exclusive here), sometimes you need to learn to take ‘no’ for an answer. Not everyone who is single wants to date, and – sorry, but someone has to say it- not everyone you meet is going to be interested in you. It’s most likely nothing personal. Even if it is, you should respect that rejection no matter how much it might hurt. If a girl isn’t interested, it’s not the end of the world.

Rejection can hurt even more when there’ve been mixed signals. Sometimes a girl’s behavior can be flirty without her even realizing it, or she may be in the market for a different type of relationship than you’re asking her for. If you’re confused, don’t worry; plenty of others are in the same boat. For all anyone knows, the girls who don’t want a relationship may be just as confused as you are.

1. They’re Prioritizing Other Aspects Of Their Life

Relationships can be time consuming and energy draining. Some ladies need their time and energy to focus on something, like her career or a …

12 More Unexpected Ways OCD Can Show Itself

The classic stereotype of people with Obessive Compulsive Disorder (or OCD for short) can be related to obsessive cleaning or checking. While those are indeed relatively common forms of OCD, they are not the only ones. Some people also think that OCD is just liking things being orderly. I’m sure many of the people reading this have heard someone exclaim something like “OMG I’m SO OCD today!” However, OCD is a complex psychological disorder that can manifest in thousands of ways. Today we will be learning about other ways – more unexpected ways – people have experienced OCD. In this way we hope to help people understand what it can be like to have OCD and beat the stereotypes that surround it. To do this we also conducted interviews with people who have experienced it.

If you’re sensitive to these topics, some of these things may be triggering.

Firstly, we will address two major concepts related to OCD: intrusive thoughts and magical thinking.

Intrusive thoughts: can turn into OCD

Some of us, if not all of us, have had intrusive thoughts at some point. You may have thought “what if I throw my keys off of this bridge? What if I kicked this toddler?” While having a thought like this may scare you a little bit at first, having this occasionally is actually quite normal. As long as you don’t…

I can’t wait to live in the mountains with you, and take our dogs for hikes. We won’t make our bed for weeks, and we’ll pile plates precariously on the dresser. We’ll play music too loud while we cook in the kitchen. On Wednesday’s we’ll visit a farmers market. On Sunday’s we’ll sleep in way past noon, memorizing the feel of each other for hours. We’ll watch it snow from the window, and try not to spill our coffee when we run from room to room.

7 Signs of Emotional Intelligence

We all know what an IQ (intelligence quotient) is and that most of us fall within the average range. We use names like “smart,” “intelligent,” “dumb,” “idiot,” and “stupid,” when talking about a person’s level of intelligence. What most people do not know is that we also possess an EQ (emotional quotient) or EI (emotional intelligence) which is our level of emotional intelligence.

Emotional intelligence is difficult to measure in numbers because it is that “thing” inside us that recognizes emotions in ourselves and others, then guides us to respond. Understanding emotions may seem unimportant or trivial but in fact, it is the opposite. In fact, it is widely believed by experts that a person’s level of emotional intelligence may be a better predictor of success and overall happiness than their IQ.

What is emotional intelligence?

Having a high level of emotional intelligence means you can accurately express your feelings and take responsibility for them. People often say things like, “You hurt my feelings,” and “You shouldn’t have,” which puts blame on the other person for the way you feel. A person with high EI realizes…….

How Solitude Can Make You a Better Person

Do you know how many roles you play throughout the day? Do you switch effortlessly between them? Do you know when you are simply just uniquely you? Every morning when we awaken, before our eyes open and our responsibilities begin, we have a moment that belongs to us. In that moment, we are the creation of our choices, our experiences, and our purpose.

The gift of solitude

“A man can be himself only so long as he is alone, and if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom, for it is only when he is alone that he is really free.”

Arthur Schopenhauer

Disengaging from the world around us, without intrusion by smartphone, laptop, neighbors, spouses, or children, is a rare occurrence. Being alone means there are…
