Discussing Sticky Issues with Your Mate Without Getting Stuck
If you’re like me, you’ve often let your mouth fly wide open to reveal the manipulative and prideful intentions behind an effort “to discuss” a sticky issue. Ugh!

A lot of people, especially bloggers, choose one word or phrase to focus on for the year. I often do that, but don’t always talk about it.
