Me time

Undoubtedly, time for ourselves is an important issue in every person's life, but we almost always sacrifise our time to the people around us, or we devote it to different kinds of situations or circumstances which usually only increase the feeling of tiredness and anxiety.
Taking time for yourself doesn't mean you have to take the day off every time you feel overwhelmed by stress.  Anda it doesn't mean that just going for a walk is enough to solve this problem and eliminate the feeling of mental discomfort that accumulates in your head overnight.
Each of us is going through a period in life when everything annoys us, when we are even unable to get in a good mood and nothing seems interesting to us. So find time for yourself, treat it as an investment in your own health. The above mentioned time for yourself should really give you an opportunity to rest. Don't let anyone bother you. Turn off the computer, hang up the phone, don't watch TV unnecessarily. Focus just on yourself. Some people meditate, others practice yoga. Choose an activity that will fully help you to relax.
Time for yourself is exactly what you need to be able to take care of your own needs in peace.

Nutella

Awareness of healthy eating is increasing dramatically. More and more people are planning full meals, reading labels and searching the Internet for the properties of purchased products. However, I'm still surprised that the first thing after typing "if nut" in the Polish google browser is "if the nutella is healthy". Is that a serious question?
Nutella's television commercial ensures that it is 'an exceptionally tasty cream made from a combination of roasted nuts, skimmed milk and a bit of cocoa'. True, at least partially, but anyone who has even licked a sandwich with this sweet, sticky slurry or looked at its composition on the label knows that in the reality it's not that simple...
But some still can't read...
Mrs. Athena Hohenberg says she was shocked to learn that Nutella is as unhealthy as the other sweets. She filed a lawsuit against the producer Nutella, Ferrero USA. She argued that the TV commercial falsely promoted Nutella as an ingredient of a healthy breakfast without saying that two tablespoons of cream were 200 calories, 11 grams of fat and 21 grams of sugar.
Shocked mom won $3.05 million in court. I still don't know how it happened. The company also had to change the Nutella label, some slogans and advertising spots and its website.

That "bitch"

Just a few years ago the term "bitch" was offensive to us. Today, this is what is said about tough and influential women or young and brazen. 
I'm sure there's at least one person in your company you'd call that term. And not with that positive connotation in mind. She always comes to the party and says: "Then who do we hate today?". It's nice to be somebody she likes. But if you find yourself among her enemies, then... ...you're lost in the circle. Or maybe you have this "bitch" at work who will always boast about her success out loud and make a lot of noise about her tasks to get noticed. You probably know subconsciously that she'll soon be your boss.
Although not all of us want to be a bitch, I'm sure you'll admit it often pays off. You have to take care of your own interests offensively. And yet many of us were brought up to be very polite girls. From childhood we were required to obey, humility, patience and diligence. However, it is this set of features that most often prevents us from achieving our dream goal.
 The Bitches show that women can do what they want. Going to the point with their main interest in mind. And don't look at those who turns their noses at their behavior. The bitch is also a demanding girl, sharp, brilliant and awe-inspiring.
But being a bitch can be risky. It's very easy to cross the line of ordinary human decency. So keep that attitude on special occasions.

Old friends

Feelings are one of the most unstable things in human life. They can change from day to day without any clear reason. But it is said that true friendship will always remain. Even if the paths of life of these people will go in completely different directions.
We haven't talked to each other for quite a long time, and yet I always felt that this is the person I can turn to with a problem. So suddenly. All of a sudden. And she'll help me. The feeling of some kind of understanding of souls has not disappeared. Of course, my honor would never allow me to make that move.
Not so long ago I got a message from her. I answered. Our conversation began, which lasted a few days. A lot of unspeakable words were hanging in the air because there was a polite way of being. However, the barriers quickly disappeared because we once had a great deal of intimacy. Friendship.
Then I understood that a particle of every human being I met in life remains with us. Maybe the word "meet" is not good in this context. Fathomed. 
Let's appreciate all friendships that never really have an end.
