Why things are so hard?

dreamsharmin @dreamsharmin (2281) • China 1 Feb 11

Why? Everything is difficult. There is nothing which is easy to do or gain? But why? Why things can't be so easy? What do you think? Do you agree that all things are difficult or hard? Share your own opinion.

chitchat I feel the same way. Why does everything have to be so difficult? And just when you think everything is going smoothly, someone/something drops a big huge boulder in your path--another obstacle to struggle with. But then there are people I know who seem to...

They say its important to enroll your toddlers to a good school during preparatory education.They say it is one factor for molding your children into a better person with good education.Education is very important but I wish it is...

chitchat A good education can be expensive because of all the expenses that the school must pay for in order to educate your child: teacher's salary, books, activity fees, field trips, school supplies, computers, etc. It's money well spent though because of the amount...

What a wife???!!!!

moneyonline2002 @moneyonline2002 (57) • Philippines 1 Feb 11

This morning when I was about to swipe my ID at work I found it missing on my jacket. I text my wife if she got something in my jackets pocket because my id is missing and it would cause too much waste of time getting a new one......

chitchat As a wife, I have never acted like that towards my husband. She seems to have gotten really defensive by your simple question which is suspicious. If she didn't take anything from your jacket, then it should have been an easy "no". Good luck with everything.

Isn't it important to take good care of yourself?

Oldsix691418 @Oldsix691418 (3872) • China 1 Feb 11

In my experiences,most people ignore one thing,which is very important to us all in fact. Who did you belong when you were born?Of course you belonged to your parents (and your brothers and sisters).Who did you belong when you...

chitchat It is important to remember to take care of ourselves. We work so hard taking care of our kids, spouses, parents, sisters, brothers, friends, co-workers. We're so considered with other people's happiness and well being. That's not a bad thing but in doing so,...

bussyien @bussyien (134) • Indonesia 1 Feb 11

To all musicians out there in Mylot,what type of musical instrument(s) do you possess? And how do you maintain the instrument(s)? Like me,I'm a bassist and I have an electric jazz bass.When I first bought the bass,I thought...

chitchat I used to own a flute and a piano. The flute was pretty low maintenance. I just had to wipe it down after every use. It keeps pretty clean with out much care. Maintenance is pretty low key. The piano took a little bit more effort because you have to get it...

Do you think the world is going to "come to an end" in 2012? Why or why not?

chitchat That's such a hard question to answer. Who am I to stay if the world is going to end next year. If you believe the Mayans' prediction, then yes the world will end in 2012. It is a very difficult thing to believe--so unbelievable in its claim because of the...

chitchat I did 2 nice things for myself today. I took a nap and I ate a twinkie. Both made me very happy. The nap also made me feel a little guilty because I felt like I wasted time when I knew I had a lot to do.

chitchat I think that the painted shells are kind of cool too. I've seen swirls and bulls eyes, and flowers on shells. However I do agree that it does seem unnatural and sometimes I do think, "poor hermit crab". But I don't think it can really harm the crab anyways....

Britney Spear is back with Hold It Against Me!

freymind @freymind (1351) • Philippines 25 Jan 11

chitchat I heard the new Britney Spears song on the radio. I had to change the station because I couldn't stand the song. She might still have "it". Not in the new song though. I don't think she's too old and I don't think having kids is even a factor considering that...
