Don't force them to talk. When a message pops up on their mobile screen and they reply to everyone else's message but not to yours, it means they are just finding a way to get rid of you and you're forcing them to talk with you. Let them go. Set them free. 
Leave them alone! Find time for someone else who has time for you.

I saw a very good movie the other night and thought I would share it with you all, in case you would like to watch it. You can find this movie on YouTube. The movie title is Kate's Secret. There is a very good cast of actors in this movie...Meredith Baxter, Ed Asner, Mackenzie Phillips, Tracy Nelson and Shari Belafonte to name some of them!
The movie is about a married woman who suffers from Bulimia and doesn't tell anyone, including her husband. A few of the characters in this movie also have Bulimia, but some have Anorexia Nervosa. It's a very powerful movie focusing on mental illness and the importance of taking care of ourselves and asking for help to combat any mental health issues we may be experiencing. I highly recommend the movie, I found it very powerful and it helps us to be aware of these struggles.

  4. Communication and miscommunication are two sides of the same coin and happen on so many levels. I just do the best I can and ask for clarification or restate what I think I heard/saw. Sometimes we find the sun and other times it finds us!
