My First Ever Discussion

July 6, 2018 6:35am CST
Hi all. This will be my first posting for a discussion and I don't want to appear too nerdy nor ask cliche questions. But at the same time, I want it to be kind of casual too. So, do tell me if you will, what are the finer things in life for you? It can be anything at all, so happy posting and have a nice day to all.

i guess i'm not really into the finer things in life, i mean if you're referring to material stuff. how would you answer you own question?

Hi there, thanks for your reply. Well, it doesn't have to be the materials in life. Like the first responder answered with family bonding time. If you ask me, I'd say the finer things in life would be feeling at ease with myself and the people I care for and fine dining freestyle. I'm not too fussy, so in a liberal way, I'd suffice with fresh air to breathe and good sceneries to appreciate. Looking at the stars is great too. All so fine.

Why don't you tell us something about the place where you live? That would be a good introduction.

@ihasaquestion My idea was to introduce yourself in a post, not in a comment only for me. Many members like to learn something about a newbie's background.

@MALUSE Yes, I would like to know everyone here as well. I don't mind introducing myself so that we all can break the ice here.

I stay on an island filled with great coral reefs, amazing landscapes and lush greenery. Oh, how I wish that could be true. I was from Canada but relocated to Asia.

I agree. Finer things in life don't have to be material wealth.

I'm an old user in a new name. I'm used to the comings and goings of myLot and have enjoyed many discussions before too. I find your post kinda weird and cool yet interesting hence I was drawn to it. So, what are the finer things in life for you, pray tell.

I prefer a simple life. When I was younger I was more inclined to go out and explore my world and I loved road trips. Now I'm content to enjoy my local area and stay home more. I value time to read and write. I value interaction with friends and family when I can connect with them. Other family members live several hours away.

@DaddyEvil It's harder to travel when you always want a restroom handy if needed. Traffic also seems worse than it was 20 years ago. There's also more crime in some cities than there used to be and it seems easier to stay in familiar territory. I can always find pretty scenery here, and there are local places I've still not explored.

Isn't it fun, getting older, Barbara? *shake my head* My daughter and I used to travel across the United States on a whim, going places just to find out how they got their name or to try a restaurant we'd heard was really good. Now, I find I have difficulty driving the 20 miles to work without having a problem of one sort or another.

Welcome to mylot. You've come to the right place if you want "casual". Discussions are mostly light and non-life threatening (with some acerbic sense of humor thrown in). I notice you come from Pitcairn and I'm curious as to the lifestyle of the people living on islands in the middle of a vast ocean.

I'm not from there, lol. I was in Canada but later moved to Asia with my dad when I was 2. I just put that because the spelling's cute. Apologies for the blunder. Oh yes, casual's the right word to go for, with a touch of tongue-in-cheek humor in it. I can be too serious in answering at times, but believe I have a funny side too. Have a nice day to you, josefina.
