An Appreciation for Music
When I’m down and feeling low, I must admit music is the way to go. For as long as I can remember, music has always been the ideal quick fix for a sour or negative mood.

Relationships
Relationships are known to blossom among two people when there is a common interest on a personal or professional level. At the beginning of employment, new employees develop an employer/employee relationship with their supervisors during the hours of operations of the company. Whether relationships are casual, personal, or professional, some of the most important elements of any relationship is communication, trust, and understanding between those involved. In formal or professional relationships, communication may be easier to initiate because it contributes to the success of the company and all the stakeholders involved.

My Worst Date
In this era of love and romance, some individuals often wonder if chivalry still exists when it comes to dating.

Still, it’s nice to see a person make an attempt at a chivalrous gesture.

Cultural Anthropology defines the term "culture" as a set of ideas, values, and beliefs shared by collectively by a community. However, many believe that the definition of culture has more to do with the differences in diverse groups of people. That idea, alone, proves that there are different ways in which to define the term culture.
