Do you believe love is blind?

ryshawneo @ryshawneo (405) • Philippines 13 May 08

Hi,guys! Do you believe that love is blind? Well,I don't..For me, Love is not blind.. But, it's the person who is in love that blinds love! Correct me if I'm wrong.. :)Please do comment :)

Do I HAVE to get baptized to be accepted by God and Jesus?

Anakata2007 @Anakata2007 (1785) • Canada 9 Apr 07

Eating fruits in an empty stomach

ellysmile_b @ellysmile_b (77) • Philippines 28 May 07

I just received an email saying that it is best to eat fruits in an empty stomach instead of dessert before your meals. Do you agree with this?

fruits

3 responses

nbtalle Yes, I agree with this. I have read an article here in Singapore that the best time to eat your fruit is with an empty stomach before a meal. It works for me. Now, I can eat all the fruits I want during meals without feeling bloated.

1 response

nbtalle Ongoingprofit.com is a scam. it has changed name to 365jobs4u.com. It seems genuine, but it's not. I wasted money and time working for that company. Well, another lesson for me. I am sorry I did not see your post earlier. I hope you did join them.
