joel onyema @joelonyema (222) • Abuja, Nigeria 17 Jul 21

I "ve been asking myself about who invented the money we all use, because money has become the most valuable thing we need on earth the fact is people have committed a lot of crimes because of money, though according to the bible...

Oneironaut I'm sure that money was invented by different cultures independently at different times. Certainly, none of those people are still alive today and there wasn't "accounts" when it was first made. Where does the Bible say that "money is good"? And why would it...

What are you doing in you free time?

Silvia @Shxrubia (2752) • Indonesia 9 Feb 21

Sometimes, in my free time i'm just doing nothing. Like laying in bed and sleep. Actually, i have a lot to do but i'm too lazy to do it. Then, i'm starting to feel like a complete screw-up. I want to be more productive like do...

Oneironaut I like to do a lot of things. I like to read, mainly nonfiction rather than novels. I like to read about psychology, philosophy, and just other interesting subjects. I like to play this computer puzzle game that my brother showed me while he was visiting for...

To exercise and diet or not to exercise and diet

vanny @vandana7 (100517) • India 8 Feb 21

Some folks exercise so much maintain good diet, are into yoga meditation and what not, and yet they get hospitalized early. Example Saurav Ganguly - former Indian cricket captain. Others do not maintain diet, do not exercise,...

Oneironaut There are so many different factors in regards to health, but to say that good diet and exercise aren't important is an overstatement. It's not just genes, but mental/emotional health that plays a large role as well, maybe the most significant role of all. Not...

Use Smiley Not to Offend Others

Shavkat @Shavkat (140097) • Philippines 6 Feb 21

We inevitably contradict others' opinions over something. It is because we have the freedom to convey our own beliefs and thoughts about a particular topic or topics. It is not healthy to agree if not agreeable from within....

Oneironaut Communication can be trickier without body language. It is something that we really take for granted, even with computers having been a part of life for so long. That is a very good idea to use emojis when intent and tone may not be so clear. This reminds me...

reverse bedtime

sheima @itsmesheima (152) • Hong Kong 7 Feb 21

I never do it before and this question comes up right away. If we reverse our sleeping hours from morning to evening, and carry out our activities from night to morning, Is there an effect from this change in sleeping hours? if...

Oneironaut There's a major effect. We all have a circadian rhythm. We don't choose it and the hours of sleep we get is so much less important to the timing of sleep. Our circadian rhythm is a hormonal cycle, primarily involving cortisol, vitamin D (not actually a...

Just Cancel The Debt Already (MyLot Exclusive #355)

Greg @xander6464 (44387) • Wapello, Iowa 6 Feb 21

I saw another article today about how unfair it will be if student loans are canceled. How it would be insulting, a slap in the face, even, to the people who have paid their loans. As usual, these arguments strike me as...

Oneironaut I like your analogies. I think that it is horrible that people feel that if they have suffered, others should suffer too. It's a really weird form of envy. I don't understand it. We should always improve the world as time goes on. If something becomes...

Alone time

Mikmath @Mikmath (103) 4 Feb 21

How many of you here also prefer alone time? I find it really peaceful for the soul. You can do whatever you like without worrying of other people and things. I also go out with friends but just occasionally.

Oneironaut I do, in a sense, but I don't have any friends and it gets rather lonely. Not to mention that many activities are very different if you are doing them alone instead of with others. Some things aren't very fun to do at all alone.

Working in retail

omgitsajenny @omgitsajenny (45) 6 Feb 21

I currently work in a Tesco and I only started in November 2020, but I already hate it. Has anybody else worked in retail? Did you like or dislike it? And if you disliked it, did it get better?

Oneironaut Retail is notoriously disliked. It is very difficult. Some personalities can tolerate it more than others. It depends on how you respond to unfair criticism and people who are being abusive in their words because customers can definitely get like that...

Love is beautiful

Chiles sims @Doctor_love32 (25) • Zambia 8 Feb 21

Wearing the lens of love makes an innocent young person to see there valentine all good and perfect, my question is can loving a wrong person, be health to the future of their relationship? #Loveisbeautiful

Oneironaut Well, this question is worded rather vaguely, so it's hard to say exactly, but if the person is "wrong" then isn't that what we call an unhealthy relationship? "Love" isn't always love and not being able to see someone for who they are can be dangerous and...

How Dumb Do The Scammers Think We Are?

danishcanadian @danishcanadian (28955) • Canada 14 May 13

Coincidence? I don't think so. LOL Remember those scams that originated some years ago about the Nigerian Royal Family, or some poor person who died and needs just a little help to get their money out of a foreign country, or...

Oneironaut Unfortunately, I know that many people actually do fall for such scams. If not, then they wouldn't do it. It's just like the bizarre warnings you find on some labels. It seems like common sense, but things happen, I guess.

I have seen so many persons renting for many years and being stuck in renting. However a peron may opt to rent to be able to get married to the one they love and settle then go into owning a home as a couple. The stuck part is...

4 responses

Oneironaut It all depends on the situation. Ideally, it is best to own, but for some people, this is not the best option. Sometimes, people can't afford a mortgage or some tend to move around a lot, so renting might be the best option for them.

Oneironaut The pursuit of knowledge doesn't require an organization to set up a course. To explore our spirituality, we can spend time in nature, take care of a garden, experience art, and be a kind person. We can meditate. We can pray. We can perform ritual. We can read...

Three types of people around you

Oneironaut People who don't know that they don't have knowledge are worthless, but those who are aware of their lack of knowledge are innocent? What guilt comes with being unaware of one's lack of knowledge? So where do you fit in this little caste system?

Oneironaut I am not sure that "Lucifer" means "shining one." I believe it means "light-bringer," but I suppose it doesn't make much difference. The word "Satan" means "to oppose." These are not really given names so much as descriptions. I have always found this...
