Bookmite Forgiveness is good for the soul, mind and heart. A person who holds onto bitterness and resentment is not psychologically, mentally or emotionally healthy. It is good for your state of health to forgive.

Should answers to all questions be positive ?

Bookmite The answers can't always be positive, however, I think they should always be considerate and respectful and be aimed at being helpful even when you do have to say something that is constructively critical. I think you'll find that in general you'll get a more...

Bookmite YES! Straight men should read romance novels, for one thing, it will give a man a deeper understanding of a woman and what her needs are. For another thing, they are fun, escapist literature that helps a person get away into a different world for while. I...

Bookmite First I want to address your comment that God is hiding. Actually, He is in plain view for all of us to see. In the book of Romans (Chapter 1, verse 20) it says: "For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine...
