"With many relationships, the reasons they end are clear."

Sure, you keep in touch with your best friend from high school every now and then, but you’re likely not really “best friends” anymore. You might still consider each other friends, but the nature of the relationship has changed. You haven’t had the regular, in-person contact needed to sustain a strong friendship. You don’t share in day-to-day circumstances. You don’t share a social network or the same interests. You share a past, but not much else. Neither of you had to explicitly acknowledge the changing of the friendship. Time and circumstances have just slowly caused it to fade away.
And that’s how the majority of friendships end, according to Bill. Not with a bang, but a whimper. “Most friendships lapse until there’s no expectation of seeing that friend or having that friend act like a friend.”
The other friend may desire a deeper relationship and more contact and communication; as he’s always the one to initiate those latter two things, he gradually grows disillusioned with this disparity in effort and investment.
Friends can also have different expectations of what it means for someone to be there for them during a difficult time. One friend may expect the other to provide ample emotional and tangible support in a crisis, while the other wouldn’t expect that kind of treatment, and doesn’t offer it to others either.
"Kodėl mes sapnuojame? Tai klausimas, intrigavęs žmoniją nuo seniausių laikų. Sapnai – paslaptinga erdvė, kurioje susipina realybė ir fantazija, o kasnakt išgyvenamos istorijos ne tik gali būti minčių kratinys, bet ir atspindėti vidinius rūpesčius ar net pateikti atsakymą į juos."

"Skurdžios ir turtingos šalys nėra tolygiai ar atsitiktinai išsibarsčiusios po Žemės rutulį, dažniausiai jos sudaro geografinius vienetus: skurdi šalis ribojasi su skurdžia šalimi, turtinga su turtinga. Kad ir kokios skirtingos būtų, pavyzdžiui, juodaodžių gyvenamos arba į pietus nuo Sacharos esančios Afrikos valstybės, jos beveik be išimčių visos skurdžios ir prastai valdomos."

"When it comes to creating the perfect compost pile that heats up quickly and turns all of your garden and kitchen scraps into amazing compost in short order – 5 simple secrets can make all the difference!"
Shared by kestimbala, 1 save total
To get the most from a compost pile, it takes a proper balance of Brown (Carbon) and Green (Nitrogen) materials. It can all sound intimidating, but it’s actually quite simple.
Brown materials consist of leaves, straw, wood shavings, dead grass, small twigs, etc. Greens on the other hand are materials like vegetable peels, coffee grounds, green grass, and plant clippings.
A good rule of thumb is for every 3 to 4 parts of brown material, add in 1 part green. For instance, if you add in 4 buckets of shredded leaves, then a bucket of vegetable peels or fresh green grass needs to go in at some point to balance it out.
And don’t fret about being exact or putting materials in at the same time. Add materials as you get them. Just try to stay as close to the ratios as you can over time to make the pile work at maximum efficiency.

First, it helps to keep your fire pit safe by preventing the embers of a burning fire from jumping out. It also helps keep the wind from becoming too much of an issue. Both when starting, and for keeping smoke out of your eyes.
But by burying your fire pit into the earth, it also helps to insulate it. That means your wood will burn slower and have a more even heat across the fire. As you will see later in the article, that is not only great for sitting around the flames, but also for cooking as well.
"Iki šiol lietuviškos vasaros asocijuodavosi su muzikinių festivalių sezonu, o dabar, regis, situacija pamažu pradeda kisti. Šią vasarą net keletui didžiausių renginių pasitraukus iš Lietuvos muzikinių festivalių žemėlapių, viešojoje erdvėje ėmė sklisti kalbos apie festivalių nykimą, o akys krypsta į miestų šventes ir jų organizuojamus nemokamus koncertus."
