ButterflyEs First of all, congratulations on making such a wonderful choice of pursuing your dream. I believe that we were meant to follow our bliss - and the rest will come on its own (yes, even though we have bills to pay, lol). I quit my job recently and decided to...

Korath @Korath (13) • New Zealand 1 Jun 09

Title says it all, is there a God? Or was it just someone who was bored one day and decided to make up a religion. I myself and a Christian and say, yes, there is a God. But I would like to hear other peoples thoughts about this...

ButterflyEs Hi there, I am not religious; yet, I believe there is a Higher force, which I choose to call All That Is that is out there. I do not see All That Is as a force that orchestrates everything in our lives, but as a part of us. I believe that we are all gods that...

Poor Inventory at Wal-Mart

kellys3ps @kellys3ps (3723) • United States 16 May 09

Whenever we go to our local Wal-Mart here in Fernley, Nevada, it is difficult to get the things we need, because their shelves are always bare! Today was no exception. My hubby went to get peppers for fajitas for dinner tonight,...

ButterflyEs I am in North Vancouver, Canada and it is exactly the same thing at our local Wal-Mart store. It is funny how they are always advertising lower prices and when you actually go and look for the products, most of them are gone and they never seem to re-stock...

ButterflyEs LOL! I get lost driving around all the time. That is the reason why I use a GPS everywhere I go. I am also happy to say that I have never been late to any important occasion, as I always make sure to give myself an extra half hour or forty-five minutes - that...

ButterflyEs I don't think you have anything to worry about. I understand that you have known each other for a longtime. However, she should be able to respect boundaries and know that business is one thing, friendship is another. Just because you are friends and have been...

ButterflyEs Of course he should. There is no difference between a man and a woman. Especially if both parties are working, they are equally tired and they should divide the chores between them to help each other. At least this is how we do it in my household. The days of...

ButterflyEs I don't believe that celebrating birthdays is necessary. As a matter of fact, I've come to find it really annoying, except for my daughters' birthdays, because they are still fairly young and they still enjoy the big hype along with the presents. However, as...

Beertjie @Beertjie (976) • South Africa 12 May 09

ButterflyEs I have absolutely no interest in what famous people are doing and I don't even bother to read any of these stories. I guess others are interested in those stories because of the fact that whatever these people do seem to be much more interesting than what we,...

E - versions of the books or actual books... Which do you prefer?

anuraa32 @anuraa32 (2446) • India 8 May 09

Now a days loads of books are being converted into e - books. Novels, classics and the lists goes on. But somehow I am not comfortable with the e - versions of the books at all. I still prefer the actual books in my hand and read...

ButterflyEs I prefer e-books or audiobooks. Actual books take up too much space and frankly, they just gather dust in the bookshelf once I am done reading them. That is the reason why I have switched to the more compact version of the books for a while now. It is so much...

ButterflyEs This is a tough one! But I would also guess that it would be ''make extra money'' as well. Even though we might like the interaction we have with other people here, I think that for most of us, this place remains to be a good source for finding more...

ButterflyEs Well, there are a lot of things that I would change. However, since you are only asking for one of the things, I suppose that would be the way economy works. Money is controlled by the world's elite families as we speak and the rest of us is basically...

if someone said they don't give a damn would you say they swore or not? i don't consider damn a sware word,

ButterflyEs I don't consider ''damn'' a swear word - actually, if you look at the English language, there are so many of them that are not actually swear words but considered as such. Even the ''f'' word was never meant to be a swear word but it is now. Of course, it is...

ButterflyEs I am the type of person who avoids crowds as much as I can. I also don't enjoy running into people, especially when I'm not in a very good mood. Since I can't be a hypocrite, my mood is always transparent - which means, if I run into someone, they know right...

ButterflyEs I've got heart over mind - it figures because I always listen to my heart instead of going with logic. But then again, I am also very intellectual. Well, the best conclusion out of this would be that I make use of both, it just basically depends in which...
