deliawas @deliawas (54) • United States 25 Sep 10

I have been through various circles of friends and have gotten to the point where I would rather be alone than with a group of females who are catty, talk bad about one another often, and are not about progression, support and...

deliawas @deliawas (54) • United States 25 Sep 10

When you were younger did you ever spend time with your family, ask your parents for advice, choose to stay in with the family and watch a movie rather than go to a party? I think decisions like these are the difference between...

Negative Criticism: Creates a better motivation ?

torchablazed @torchablazed (3218) • Philippines 24 Sep 10

It feels good when somebody gives you a compliment over a job well done, a negative feedback either will pull a person down or trigger him to do better things. This is true to me, when I was 12 my aunt told me that I am weak and...

aarpees Yes, for me it creates motivation to a person when they are criticized negatively. It differs from person to person but it sure works for me. That's why I do not feel bad when somebody tells me my shortcomings, but rather, I would feel really hyped up and...

which VALUES are the children of this generation missing?

nikramos @nikramos (698) • Philippines 24 Sep 10

personalities are constantly evolving and while some stuck to their tested values and morals, some chose not to go with the society's standards. With what i see, children teens and younger people of these days are lacking some...

aarpees I think what's lacking in today's character of generation is the respect to older people. CHildren now think that they can control the older generation, and there is no need for them to respect these people. They can talk to their parents like just their...

Have you ever told someone their prices are too high at a garage sale?

ladym33 @ladym33 (10979) • United States 24 Sep 10

aarpees yes, here in the Philippines, filipinos in a right way are very out loud in saying to the seller how high the marked price is. And these sellers would just give you a lower price, and you would end up having met the price at a more affordable amount. You just...

chiyochan @chiyosan (30184) • Philippines 24 Sep 10

Happy people are more healthy?

dengshijie @dengshijie (98) • China 24 Sep 10

Most people are struggling to search for two things - happy and healthy. (Also in the column of material life, of course, but want it much easier.) For a long time, we believe that happiness and ealth are two relatively...

happy

aarpees When you are happy, you tend to have less cortisol level (stress hormones) which can actually cause harm to your body. So I guess, scientifically speaking, when you have less stress and you have a happy disposition in life, you tend to be healthier.

Graceekwenx @Graceekwenx (3160) • Philippines 25 Sep 10

aarpees Of course I will go for the discovery type and spoonfeeding. I think, a mixed approach is the best way for students to effectively learn. In my school, we have the discovery learning approach and spoon feeding in certain subjects, and I think it is working...

God certainly exists

Professor2010 @Professor2010 (20162) • India 25 Sep 10

Friends many say, there is no God and God is just an imaginary crutch, that when a man feels any weakness he calls to God, and that when he feels more happy he feels no need for the existence of God. It’s a fact that materialists...

pinoycity @pinoycity (575) • Philippines 24 Sep 10
