sydbhee You can say that again! These are energy drainers who rely on causing negativity in others to get their highs! Many people actually feel aggrieved by the success of others, in many cases particularly close relatives and friends. This occurs because of a...

sydbhee In one of my country's languages we say "do not eat a witch's brew out of politeness". The main issue here is to avoid eating what may be contaminated. At a service outlet it would be faily easy to walk away without it becoming an issue. However imagine if it...
