One Love. Are We There Yet? No. We Aren't!

It's 2012, and there's still racism and hate. Racism and hate starts at what point in our lives? As children, being raised to hate? Or, after a bad experience? What do you think?

Lida2010 Yeah this was a good movie. It showed the reality of drugs and its effects and how it can destroy a life. It did end very sadly, but when there is some type of involvement with drugs, one can't expect a good outcome. He played a very good role and portrayed a...

What determines beauty?

Curlann @annierose (21977) • United States 5 May 12

Beauty will pass by and all of us will grow old. The important thing is how we value and respect ourselves and how we treat others with respect in return because at the end, what we did will remain in the hearts of our children...

Lida2010 I believe that beauty is truly on the inside, that is what makes a person beautiful. What does a person gain from having physical beauty when if they are horrible people. I think physical beauty is so over rated, when ultimately what truly counts is whats on...

hotsummer @hotsummer (13919) • Philippines 5 May 12

Lida2010 I personally think to each it's own. I would prefer for people to express themselves freely, however it may be than to go into a rage and hurt others. Sometimes when people don't vent their anger appropriately, whether it's through curse words or not. I...

Do you make a chechklist before going to market?

sherlysinguran @sherlysinguran (82) 5 May 12

Lida2010 Actually I don't worry about a grocery list because I do all of my grocery shopping online and have them delivered to my house. One of the greatest advantages of shopping online is that I do it from home, so I can easily go and check if there is something I...
