The Bookizie Talks-4

I am back with the 4th part of the bookizie talks [After a cold response to the first three one hehe]
Point one -
New Innovations
For the convenience of readers and members, who aren't able to come on the blog very regularly or those who wish to stay updated...
Can subscribe the blog feeds through the new feature Subscribe added at the Right hand side.

A great Thanks to Alvia for the badges.Those who still haven't got one for their blogs,contact me or alvia.

Point -2
A request.
I would like to request to all members, that a blog member had approached me, citing reasons why she was uncomfortable with the tags and games being played here.Reflecting on her point, i realized,further, i am adding one tag per week.And we are, 32 members. Just realize the volume of posts we will create here.
Better Idea is, do your tags on your personal blogs, those who have one.
This will also clear your dilemma, whom to pass on the tag.On your blog, also you can share your results with your other friends too.This will further strengthen our mission to spread awareness regarding books.
The Links that should be created, i think authors are well aware of.
Those who wish to start a tag, here can do it anytime.One should dish out the best of the book tags for us to relish.
Those who don't have a personal/other blogs, can always find comfort on this blog.No worries on that front.

The labels,meet the members,member birthdays,the bulletin board,the mission will be merged in this label.

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...
