Pretend that You are God - Perspective

dian21 @dian21 (606) • Philippines 4 Jul 10

I'm just wondering how God listens and answers to all the prayers of many people. One will ask for his son's winning a football game. While the other one will ask for money to send his son to school...One will ask for good weather...

Joshuael I think Gods wouldnot satisfy the unreasonalbe demands.When we pray for our wish,our heart will listen to the wish and remember that in later life.God's power can be exerted only through our own action.That power stays in our heart.

Do you listen to songs that are neither in English nor in your mother language?

okuribidreams @okuribidreams (195) • Italy 4 Jul 10

I admit I have a thing for Japanese pop. It's not a big deal actually, since I'm studying the language and I understand almost everything, but recently I found myself attracted to some Korean r&b songs as well. I only know few...

santosmarichris @santosmarichris (1849) • Philippines 4 Jul 10

Ohh, how could I resist??? Every time I open a snack, or merely a sound of a plastic my pet Sam comes near me and checks it out. And if it's food, she'll go begging. Lol. Her tail wags crazily, her eyes seems...

Final of World Cup could be Germany vs Netherland

wakawaka @wakawaka (134) • Indonesia 3 Jul 10

After saw the matches, i think Germany is the strongest candidate to win the World Cup. Although i'm the Spain's fan, i don't think they're going to win the cup. Germany is strong, they have defeated England 4-1 and Argentina 4-0....

We consider moon and sun as god

Professor2010 @Professor2010 (20156) • India 2 Jul 10

Joshuael If it deserves adventure,I will do it. Sometimes we have 90% chance of failure,but if 10% of success occurs,it may bring a 1000% return,and thus it deserves our adventure.Such as insurance sales promotion.That is out of a rational caculation.
