You’ll crave the faces that feel like home. Even small things—like the way the sunlight used to hit your old window—will tug at your heart. And that’s okay. Feeling like a stranger in your own life is part of the transformation. 🌟 Then Slowly: Magic Begins A...

Marrying the wrong person When you're young, check your motives for marrying. Don't marry to copy your peers, or for social standing or out of pressure.

Things will get worse when children are involved. Make the right ch...
