Christmas Traditions

MandaLee @MandaLee (3804) • United States 1 Dec 11

Christmas is a special time of year. We celebrate Christ's birth, remembering God's gift of love to the world. What are some special traditions that you or your family have as part of celebrating Christmas?

BrianDaniel Of course we love Christmas Eve worship service. It reminds us of all the sacrifices God has made for us and how much he loves us, in order to make those sacrifices. We also have one main shopping day as a family (and several smaller ones too) where we shop...

Do designation and high pay change your attitude towards co-workers?

viju0410 @viju0410 (2286) • India 27 Jul 11

When we join a job we try to prove our best and wanted to climb up the ladder of growth and improvement. There are people who reach so high but forget about those who helped him/her reach that top position. I have interacted with...

BrianDaniel It is unfortunate to see some people change as they "climb the ladder." Of course, we are all changing all of the time. Gaining authority or wealth affects every person differently. The person who stays connected to his or her roots while using the new...

It sometimes takes the right book to enjoy reading

megamatt @megamatt (14290) • United States 26 Jul 11

I tended to enjoy to read books ever since I was a young child. For some people though, that love tends to not get cultivated until much later in life. There are many people who have been turned off by reading as children, until...

BrianDaniel I think in today's tech and mobile world, people find it harder to read for more than a few seconds. I'm concerned that in twenty years the people running the world will run it in sound bites and images alone. That's a little scary.

What made you start reading?

K31 @keihimekawa (2007) • Philippines 27 Jul 11

It just baffles me why there are a lot of people loves reading and at the same time, there are people also hates them. I also used to dislike reading. Whenever I see small printed words, I tend to sleep before finishing 2 pages :P...

BrianDaniel Reading is a gateway to life. It educates, encourages, rebukes, teaches, and mentors. Reading allows us to go places we haven't been and explore in more depth where we have already been.

BrianDaniel Ha ha, you guys are funny. I'm thinking it is a cost-cutting measure of a service that wasn't used much. There was certainly a cost of feeding the AP stories to MyLot.

The Amanda Knox Trial

Do you think the DNA evidence will clear Amanda Knox? What are your thoughts on the trial?

BrianDaniel And it is so hard to evaluate a case like this because we are only viewing it through the lens of the media.

BrianDaniel Those are high profile cases that receive ultra media attention. I have hundreds of friends with young children, or single women, who live overseas and travel a lot. Those cases are not the norm. I would encourage you to not be afraid. Having said that, it...

BrianDaniel Okay, so I read a news update. It's hard to say at this point whether they can surmount an appeal that would re-open the case.

BrianDaniel That's what I'm afraid of. I liked to hit 3-4 news stories; easy money. I did notice that few people left comments but those that did left great comments. We had some good conversations. It is one way to touch the world - discuss around a news event. Oh well.

Does knowledge make us happy or sad?

sashakiddo @sashakiddo (1102) • United States 20 Apr 11

I use to read a lot. I always read the required reading for class, especially for sociology. I think because of this, I tend to know more than my friends who don't really care about class. I feel like this sets me apart from them,...

BrianDaniel Both. Knowledge that benefits us can make us happy if we embrace it or it can make us sad if we don't know what to do with it or don't realize that it might benefit us. Our perspectives and attitudes influence the way knowledge affects us. Our experiences...

BrianDaniel People are lonely and looking for someone to love them. They falsely assume that this new exciting person will make the difference in their lives even though deep down they know the problem is not with others, it is with themselves, but they don't know how to...
