Humans seem to be desperate for bad sensations, because there is more to gossip about and more interesting than good news and people are ghoulish.

People like to hear bad things that happens to other people so they can feel better about them self's....Gleeful Ghouls who thrive on other people's pain.

Even group prayer can easily turn into gossip. Bad news is like hell fire, and what better instrument is there than the unchain-able muscle we know as the tongue. No wonder that The Bible admonishes us to set a guard upon our mouths!

Good news trails behind in a negative world - but, to a group of folk who are in Christ truly and fully, they only sojourn here in this world and their citizenship is elsewhere with God - this group thrive on the Good News (Gospel)

Most people sure do love a juicy tidbit of gossip! we're quicker to pass on bad news, dirt, rumor, scandal etc..........we're all guilty!

I must confess I'm fb ''addict'' or rather say ''zombie'',I usually utilize most of my time when I'm at work or home using facebook and twitter to keep up with friends-perusing and reading new posts,chatting or going through friends' profiles to see new photos and stuff.

Every girl needs a pair of black pumps,but we already have our black pumps, be it in pointed toe, almond toe, round toe, open-toe, whatever you do have, black suede, satin, matte leather and patent. Those lucky ones might have everything in multiples too. So here is new perspective towards shoes. Every girl needs a pair of killer shoes too. For special occasions, whenever we need a mood-booster, for the broken hearted. It's fun, and I know that girls and shoes have some sort of emotional bonding whatsoever. So this could work, for much cheaper than seeing a professional.

First pair is Red sole...Christian Louboutin Lady Max 100 Spike-Embellished Metallic Leather Sandals. Evocatively adorned with sharp spikes. Metallic calfskin strappy sandal with spike and pave crystal adornments. Adjustable buckles at instep and ankle-wrap, heel measures approximately 100mm.

The second pair, is no other than the quirky, fantastical shoes from Prada Spring 2012. Apparently they call them Jewel-Toe Flame Sandals. Start looking at the intricate rose ornament surrounded by pink jewels at open toe, then the cutout vamp detail and flame design on elasticized slingback strap. And finally, the very rare rocket booster detail at back heel you won't be able to see in any other shoe design, I would say.

Rob has reportedly moved out of the home he shared with Kristen Stewart clearly unable to deal with the embarrassment of being cheated on.

The “devastated” Twilight star has packed up his stuff and left the Los Angeles home he shared with Kristen after her admission she had an affair with her Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders, 41.

A source close to the situation “Rob is not taking Kristen’s calls and he isn’t much of a texter as they don’t text each other. Not only has he left the house they share but he is leaving the situation all together cold turkey to have time to himself and deal with it on his own terms. He currently wants to be as far from Kristen symbolically and physically right now while he deals with what has happened.”

Look for Signals
After you’ve realized that you might be more than friends, the next step is to figure out if this feeling is reciprocated. If you are observant, you may pick up on some unintentional signals that may indicate your friend feels the same way and may be open to dating.

Think about how your friend talks about potential romantic partners: Does he refuse to talk about it with you, or is he vague? Conversely, does he talk about women he might date more than he did at the beginning of your friendship? Some people will either avoid the subject or overcompensate if they realize they have romantic feelings for a friend and they aren’t sure how to proceed.

Be on the lookout for how often your friend asks you about your love life. If they ask you lots of questions and seem overly curious, this may be a sign that your friend might think of you as more than friend. Also, if your friend asks you what you’re attracted to or wants to know about each and every relationship you’ve had, this could also be a major sign they like you.

How does your friend act when you are dating anyone else? Are they jealous? Do they think that no one is good enough for you? After all, if they want to be with you, it makes sense they’d see red when thinking or talking about someone you’re dating.
