Drop it and come out of your zombie shell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;FACT #2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know being unhappy won&#39;t do you good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Worst, it affects people around you; who loves and cares for you. Time to shudder off unhappy pessimistic thoughts. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div xmlns=&quot;http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div xmlns=&quot;http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml&quot;&gt;Put on your thinking cap.

It is difficult to express what&#39;s on your mind, in your soul; left hanging at your lips. It is difficult to capture the moment. It is difficult to utter the right words at the right time. It is difficult to deliver a point that matters. It is MOST difficult to let others understand how you feel. That&#39;s why we have communication barrier.</description><link>http://idiosyncrasiesreside.blogspot.com/2011/03/communication.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item></channel></rss>
