Jenaisle @Jenaisle (14078) • Philippines 28 Jun 23

Nowadays, I am finding it hard to be an optimist. I seem to think the worst of situations, and suspect persons of their true motives. There were some events that proved my negative thoughts were unfounded. I'm thinking,...

What do you think is your mental age?

Jenaisle @Jenaisle (14078) • Philippines 25 Jun 23

Sometimes, I wonder what my mental age is. At times, I think like an 8-year-old excited about trivial things and raring to conquer the world. And often, I think like a 90-year-old, exhausted about everything in life; being...

What do you think about euthanasia?

Jenaisle @Jenaisle (14078) • Philippines 22 Jun 23

What is the ideal number of kids? Why?

Jenaisle @Jenaisle (14078) • Philippines 19 Jun 23

What do you think is the ideal number of kids? For me, it would be three; one girl and two boys. This is because one kid would make him lonely, and two would be too few. On the other hand, 3 kids would be good because when one...
