Respecting the Pain

Amber @AmbiePam (100416) • United States 17h

I’m not a psychologist nor would I pretend to be. However, I remember reading a book about this in my twenties, and over the years it has popped into my head. It’s about minimizing or dismissing someone else’s problems or pain. I...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (194499) • United States 23h

Remember the fear that everyone had that their computers would not seamlessly change from 1999 to 2000? As it turned out, there was little cause for concern. On a personal note, my computer and camera changed to 2000 without a...

Birth and death

Jenaisle @Jenaisle (15338) • Philippines 13 Jul

I believe that one's day of birth and death are predetermined. That's why even when some people commit suicide, not all of them die because it's not yet their time. Likewise, people cannot choose when to be born, and neither can...

A town built on the sandalwood trade

Judy Evans @JudyEv (358414) • Rockingham, Australia 13 Jul

There was one car in the main street in the small town of Bencubbin when we visited there. Hopefully, it’s busier at other times. A major industry in days gone by was sandalwood cutting. By 1920, a record 14,000 tons of...

They are not doing anyone harm, leave them alone

Jimlos Tatooth @Ineeddentures (10443) 9h
