I'm No Longer The Beggars' Friend.

Jabo @jaboUK (64354) • United Kingdom 16 Mar 16

I've always given a coin or two to beggars, though my husband says I am gullible. However, I'm not stupid - I know that it may be spent on drink or drugs, but if there's a chance that it may help someone in genuine need, I give...

Sherly Bejoy I know right, I stopped giving to the beggars too. But one day ( this was years ago) a child happened to ask me for food. I readily accepted. The next thing I saw was, he ran with the food towards his little sister. Fed her and then he had. My heart melted...

Sherly Bejoy I've realised happiness is a choice, no matter what the circumstance is, if I choose to be happy then my day goes well. It gets hard though. Like today, I'd been running behind my daughter and trying to manage work and home. Now that she's sleeping, I have...

~It Was A Good Reminder~

Jennifer @LovingMyBabies (85288) • Valdosta, Georgia 16 Mar 16

I am so glad we went to Bible Study tonight. We almost didn't go due to some bad news about my husband's job. He is getting laid off. We were a little stressed about that before church. But we went to Bible Study and the message...

Sherly Bejoy Praise God for that my friend. It happened with me too. I believe God draws us more closer when time are sad in our lives. When sadnes weighs too much on us that our knees bend and touch the floor, remember it's the perfect time to pray. God is in control of...

Sherly Bejoy For them it's all intriguing, since they are learning they are curious to know so many things which may seem silly for us. Cheers to the relation you share with her. :)

Do you let things build up inside?

beverly boyden @granny2015 (432) • United States 18 Aug 15

Sherly Bejoy See it:s pointless to let things build up inside me . And most of the time it's not worth it. So I just let the other person know if I didn't like anything or things like that. Saves time and energy plus brings true relations closer.

Sherly Bejoy when the children are young, such behaviour is accepted not when one is grown up. besides he is leaving for work purpose. if she continues to suffocate him then he might only stay there just to please her not because he really wants to be with her.

Anxiety the new social destroyer.

CandyLand420 @CandLand420 (4) • United States 15 Aug 15

As of lately, I let my guard down. Try my very hardest to walk among the living, while my soul is left drained and dead. My own shadows won't respond to the whispers. Even the drops that caresses my face only to come out empty...

How much time do you spend with your love one?

Kevin @kevin1877uk (36988) 12 Aug 15

If you are in a relationship, how much time do you spend with your love one? Do you spend every waking moment together? Spend very little time together? Or maybe something in between.
