Have you seen Paranormal?

slovenc1 @slovenc1 (2089) • Slovenia 16 Dec 09

Would you listen to foreign music though you couldn't understand the lyrics?

sachii315 @sachii315 (488) • Japan 8 Dec 09

I am an avid fan of foreign music. Though I might not understand the lyrics, the melody and the rhythm of some foreign music soothes me. I find foreign music interesting and the style differs from every country. I enjoy listening...

Why is it so hard to forgive a friend than an enemy?

letsearn9 @letsearn9 (41) • United States 18 Nov 09

Why is it that you can forgive your enemy for the hurt they caused you, but you can not forgive your friend for the same? I think it is because when the person is already an enemy, you expect them to hurt you anytime or all...
