In personal relationships, water may often be the one who exits due to a feeling of being injured or emotionally rejected; in such situations he or she will usually have found someone else who is more "responsive", only to discover wit horror that the new lover has a different face but is in fact the same person as the old.

I had recently begun to wear my hair in an Afro again. It was a symbol that screamed, I LOVE ME! I see my curly hair as antennas to God. We always fussing with it, but Black hair is powerful. Black hair is the only thing on the planet that defies gravity.

You could only have a relationship of any kind, be it family or friends or lovers, if both people were willing to reach toward each other. It wasn't, as some said, hard work in the sense of being unpleasant or tedious or painful--- that was a myth perpetuated by people with a vested interest in telling you to stay in a terrible relationship--- but it did require effort. You had to try.

Managing Pressure: Protecting Relationships and Staying Balanced

Pressure is something we all face, whether in our personal lives or at work. It builds up slowly, and if not addressed, it eventually spills over. Sadly, it’s often the people closest to us who bear the brunt of our stress and frustration.

How we deal with pressure matters just as much as the pressure itself. Instead of letting it build to a breaking point, it’s important to find healthy ways to release it — whether that’s through honest conversations, practicing self-care, or seeking support.

By managing pressure in a constructive way, we not only protect our relationships but also approach challenges with a clearer mind and greater resilience.

He was a gemstone in the rough. not stunning at first glance, but with a great deal of worth beneath the surface. Sim was tender, kind, and attentive as any woman could care for. He made Fela deliriously happy. Sim was a prince.
By contrast, what did I have to offer? Nothing really. Less now. I was more like a curious stone that is picked up, carried a while, and finally dropped again with the realization that for all its interesting look, it is nothing more then hardened earth.

Women's obsession with work and independence and so on is the source of their dissatisfaction. When women surpass men, their chance for romance slips away from them.

That was how I came to realise: for all their knowledge of literature and the arts, my parents weren't in the habit of thinking deeply about anything. They were, in fact, profoundly superficial people who were happy if they could spend their days enjoying themselves, surrounded by things they liked and which were pleasing on the eye.
