Helios I kinda do the same thing lol. I often call both my huge golden retriever and my little Pomeranian puppy or "little dog" in mandarin. They both respond to it. But for me their actual names are quite generic...Oliver and Bernice. Thanks for sharing. Happy...

Helios In fact, Im glad I asked. I was wondering if anyone had any long and strange story to the naming of their pets. Meeting your dog in a dream before you even seen him/her, now that is awesome. Its always nice to have a dream that directly connects with life and...

What was the happiest moment in your life?

Helios @Helios (85) • United States 11 Sep 08

What was the occasion? What effects did it have on you? Has anything come close to this?

Helios I kinda feel that way too. Most of mine are just some high level...nothing really peaks. Just a really occasional plateau. Often the bad stuff seem easier to remember and compare lol... Hope you peak positively soon. Thanks for sharing

What books do you think are must-reads for a young man (me) lol?

Helios @Helios (85) • United States 11 Sep 08

Something that greatly affected you positively, helped you grow and develop as a young man Perhaps a sort of right of passage for a college-bound teenager.

Helios I read the bible. I'm doing a more thorough and periodic reading of it now. As for the second one, I'll look into that. The title is really interesting, considering Mars being the God of War and combat and Venus of love and beauty. As for Shakespeare, that...

Helios Thanks. I'll look into that. I like philosophy and getting lost in thoughts. Getting lost in someone elses thoughts is something I havent done so much yet, though lol.

Drifting...an expensive hobby?

Helios @Helios (85) • United States 11 Sep 08

I hope to be able to take up drifting as a hobby someday. Is it really costly? I heard some people just ask for worn out tires from tire stores and use them on their rear wheels. Anyone here consider drifting to be a hobby...

Helios Ya, I understand that tuning the machine to be competitive would be expensive. I was thinking more along the lines of just for self amusement. It might not even have to be a competition...Just man vs the track lol. Sigh unlimited tires and a private mountain...

Whats your personal "proof of god"?

Helios @Helios (85) • United States 11 Sep 08

Perhaps an miraculously answered prayer? Something you witnessed with your own eyes. Something against all odds

Helios Wow, an exact amount. Sounds like God was declaring his involvement and concern for you. Yeah, I believe that the strongest "proofs of God" are personal but testimonies are extremely effective. Its just that experiencing your own is more life changing.

Helios I completely agree with you, friends and family do shape so much in us. They are like a net we fall back upon so we can rebound and charge at life's harsh side again. Thanks for the response.
