Books are always better. Everyone will tell you that but your counter point is likely to be that you like visual mediums or that watching a movie or a TV show is simply faster. A book can take a long time to finish after all.  Yes, it can be tempting to watch a movie adaptation rather than read a book, but guess what?  If you truly want to enjoy a story and actually get to know your characters, then read the book. Most times, the best parts of the book are cut out for a variety of reasons, most of them being budget constraints.  To be honest, I had not heard of Julia Quinn’s book series until the show came out on Netflix. I watched the first season only because it was hyped. In my opinion, it was forgettable. I wasn’t wowed by it and didn’t understand the fuss over this historical romance.  Then news came out on the second seasons and every one was going on about how this would be the best season of all since it was based on the best book in the series: T...

  Every day is a blessing. Some days are good, some days are hard. A positive attitude can help you get through most obstacles. Here are some of the things you can do to make every day a positive one. 1) Wake up with a smile It is said that when you wake up and smile, even when you don't feel like it, your brain produces chemicals that make you happy. Also, looking at yourself in the mirror and smiling can generate positive emotions. Besides, you should always be happy to see yourself and accept yourself in every way. 2) Make your bed and make sure your space is tidy. A clean space will instantly fill your mind with peace. A cluttered space will make you feel the opposite of peace. Whether or not you believe in positive and negative vibes, keeping your house clean at all times does promote positive feelings within you. Cleaning your house yourself is also a good physical activity. Taking care of your house is a good way to feel positive. 3) Practice good hygiene Remember to take ca...
