My funny dream

Fleur @Fleura (29237) • United Kingdom 3 Apr

This week the girls are both away, which is a novel experience! It also means I don’t absolutely have to get up at 7 am which is the normal routine on a school day. So yesterday I actually dozed off again for a few minutes and in...

Something's Been On My Heart

J.N.R Dutton @jnrdutton (2584) • United States 6 Apr

A person cannot spend the entirety of their life tearing down a healthy society and then expect personal immunity from the fallout. It's often said that people reap what they sow, and that is absolute fact. I've watched as...

Civil War - Worth watching?

Victor Frankenstein @VictorFrankenstein (202) • United Kingdom 10 Apr

I've seen advertising for a new movie that's coming out soon - "Civil War", set in a nightmarish near future America. I've been thinking of seeing it. Has anyone else seen it yet, and if so do you think it's worth the price of a...

Do you practice self forgiveness?

Tunde @ogbenishyna (3046) 20 Mar

Lack of self-forgiveness has been discovered to be one of the things that steal happiness. You are not the only one who made bad decisions in the past that hurt others and yourself. The persons you hurt in the past ight have moved...

Aparajita Bhattacharjee Haven't been able to. I actually don't know how it is done. I mean, how can one forgive oneself when one knows that one has committed a wrong, knowingly? that the arrow is released, that nothing can be done now as time won't come back? that the person wronged...

Pilot and co-pilot on Indonesia flight slept off

Tunde @ogbenishyna (3046) 25 Mar

passengers on a flight in Indonesia should count themselves lucky that one of the pilots on board woke up after sleeping for about 30 minutes leaving the aircraft to fly on automated mode. This could have been another disaster but...

Aparajita Bhattacharjee On one hand I empathize with them for having to go through tremendous exhaustion under pressure. On the other hand, chide at their lack of control over sleep and a sense of responsibility. There can be other factors also, but they should never have taken the...

Funny How Life Is

celticeagle @celticeagle (159650) • Boise, Idaho 13 Mar

I had been sick for about a week with something I still wonder if it was COVID. I had 7 out of 11 symptoms. Ugh! I was sick. I drank Alka-Seltzer and ate very little. I found Lemon Ginger tea very soothing and drank many...

Aparajita Bhattacharjee Do you get coconut water there? Lemon ginger tea is very good. But instead of tea, I'll suggest water. Among other things, cucumber and water melon.

How would you answer the question 'what is your relationship to your next-of-kin'?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (326434) • Rockingham, Australia 14 Mar

Have you noticed how the questions on forms have changed somewhat over the past few years? Once you never would have seen ‘what pronoun do you prefer’. Vince was highly tempted to put ‘me’, in answer to that. I have a bit of...

Aparajita Bhattacharjee Even I play with the pronoun 'they' when I have to hide a 'his' or 'her' identity. But accepting 'They' as a gender is a bit difficult when it rests on the singular. 'Strange' ! 'Fragile'! Really!! I don't want to offend but I found this piece funny.

Do you always hold unto the way things were?

Tunde @ogbenishyna (3046) 20 Mar

We do some things that steal our happiness and one of such is holding unto the way things are done in the past. Since live is always evolving, it is impossible to control how things used to work. It is therefore more important to...

Aparajita Bhattacharjee Rightly said. I'm swimming upstream. It has become apparent to me that my well being is of primary importance. Sounds selfish, but it does include doing things that take into consideration, others' well being and needs as well.

What are you reading?

MARILYN @Marilynda1225 (80023) • United States 24 Jan

I spent the afternoon curled up with my book. It was a good distraction especially since it's lighthearted and funny. One of my favorite authors is Janet Evanovich and the book I'm reading is Dirty Thirty. It's the 30th book in...

Inflation Is Still Rising

Jim Bauer @porwest (78759) • United States 12 Mar

Diana @dya80dya (33810) 10 Mar

Do you eat sweets every day?

Diana @dya80dya (33810) 9 Mar

Aparajita Bhattacharjee I've heard, that the more they keep you engaged over the phone, the greater chances they have, of collecting your data. I do not usually take calls from unknown numbers.

Do you see the word "whatever" as disrespecting?

Tunde @ogbenishyna (3046) 15 Feb

Overusing the world "whatever" may mean you don't take things seriously . Unfortunately most people use the word recklessly without care for its implication. Do you find yourself using "whatever" when you converse with people?

Aparajita Bhattacharjee What were the symptoms? And have they taken a second opinion? I don't know. Most of the time, I don't rely on a doctor's diagnosis unless I've taken a second opinion.
