Mentally blocked guy Photo/Courtsey I am looking towards the end of the day, simply because it’s my weekend off which is what every employee looks forward to. Then the General (a colleague) starts complaining of Mental block and this makes me realize am also suffering from the same. I have not had an idea on anything for my blog till now. So, what is Mental block? A mental block is either a repression of painful thoughts, or an inability to continue a train of thought, like in the case of writer’s block.

I was reading that during the 52 games, married or dating women were active on social media by 67%, while those that are single cannot be seen online, except when posting pictures of them drinking or having fun watching the games(i don't believe most who say they are watching).This io concluded as a result of men not being by their wiv

The Author-PrimeTimePlayer I am very close with those two parts of my life because we have a long history together;I am specifically close with some relatives that people who cannot tell we are related will go home saying and thinking of us as lovers.I have to name these people who make me smile and laugh every day;Dorcas my twin, Sylvia my better half(not in that context you are thinking), My granma, my mum, my granpa,my two William brothers and my aunt.This is because we observe specific fundamentals we observe.I thinks its all fair enough if i shared them. Love and respect This is paramount in any relationship.It ensures that all relationships are maintained as well as practising these two great values that go hand-in-hand for better long-term re
