Frenemies - 5 Reasons To Let Go And Move On
Frenemies – 5 Reasons to Let Go and Move On Frenemies – (friends, lovers, co-workers) - we all have them to one degree or another. You know - the ones that basque in your success by association or steal an idea and then take credit for it in front of you. They can be sweet as sugar in your presence and tell a tale of lies and deceit when your back is turned for a millisecond. To move forward and be successful (I mean happiness), you must, must, must, rid these people from your repertoire of “friends” to create the magical space that will be your life experiences, your joy, and your newfound freedom.

However, research has revealed that good apologies share certain key elements that can help rebuild trust and mend relationships. By thoughtfully incorporating these factors, we can learn to make amends in everyday situations, especially when interacting with those closest to us.

Does city life contribute to psychosis?
Is life in the city contributing to psychosis in Denver? A study published this week in JAMA Psychiatry showed urban settings contributed to more acute cases of psychosis than rural areas. “We found that compared with rural neighborhoods, neighborhoods characterized by urbanicity and environmental exposure (i.e., air and noise pollution) were unilaterally associated with more severe psychotic symptoms, but that more severe depression and anxiety symptoms were specific to individuals residing in urban neighborhoods that also had high area deprivation (i.e., poor housing conditions, health outcomes, and socioeconomic disadvantage),” according to the study. “These findings remained significant after controlling for individual-level characteristics such as age, gender, race, ethnicity, education level, and household income.”

I've been gone a long time, and I'm afraid to dip my toes back into the water. Writing is very difficult for me now. I haven't been doing a lot of it, if any of it at all, and it is as though I've completely forgotten how.

Relentlessly
I gave a man asking for change at the gas station a hoodie last night. It had been sitting in my trunk for a while, and I have more at home. The nights are getting colder. I gave a woman a fanny pack the week before that. She said she needed it, so I took it off my waist, emptied the contents into the front seat of my car, and handed her the bag. A hot pink Lululemon Christmas gift from a boss who spent our bonuses on trinkets we could use but not as much as the money. I didn't need it. I resented it but used it nonetheless. I took myself out today with my last twenty dollars for the week. The goal was to write and forget for a minute. But I'm asked for help by several people along the walk and give the twenty dollars away.
