Active versus Passive Relationships: Which Type Do You Have?
How do you relate to others? Is it through talking, games, work, or is it something else?
One of my worst habits in life is being shy. I’m wasn’t naturally attracted to meet with others. It wasn’t because I didn’t like people. It was because of my fear of how people would react.

(Note: Men, please share this with the women in your life.)
It’s hard to be beautiful — and even harder to feel beautiful.
The current media ideal for womenís overall appearance is achievable by less than 2% of the female population. But we are bombarded with this unrealistic ideal.
Young women today see more images of exceptionally beautiful women in one day than our mothers saw throughout their entire teenage years. It’s no wonder that 8 out of 10 women are dissatisfied with their appearance.
