Chyzv88 Whenever some myths like this one are mentioned, I would think of any connection why people would link two things together. Sometimes there might be anindirect connection between them. I know coffee does not cause stunting. This is my theory why the two were...

I know it's a possibility, but how is everyone so sure?

1337juicebox @1337juicebox (20) • United States 1 Dec 08

I find it very hard to believe that God exists, and that Jesus is up there. I really can't settle for it until I see it with my own eyes. And according to them, by then it's too late, you have to be a believer from the start....

Chyzv88 I think this is where faith comes in. Faith is taking God at HIs Word. We need though to seek HIs Word too, so that we know what it is all about. It comes from knowing who you are believing in, indeed it would be very difficult to believe something you do not...

Have you ever forgotten to pay your jeepney fare?

yuna15 @yuna15 (2706) • Philippines 13 Nov 08

This happened to me twice when I was in college. My friend and I are too busy chatting with other so we forgot to pay our fare and the only time I realized that we didn't pay our jeepney fare was when I counted my money....

Chyzv88 As far as I can remember, I was about six years old when I did not pay my mom and my jeepney fare. Of course I was young then and very eager, so I asked my mom to give me the money so I can hand it to the driver. However when we rode a bus (another ride) home,...

Can You Listen to Music While Reading A book?

zhaychel @zhaychel (610) • United Arab Emirates 10 Nov 08

My mom do this. She listens to classical music while reading her books. I can't help but be amazed on how my mother could grasp two activities all together. I asked her once if she still can concentrate the thought of the book...

Chyzv88 I actually do! When I was in college I'd turn on the radio while I study. I even sing with it at times. Once I had to study at a friend's place and I study until, about two in the morning. She was asked me if I was able to study and I said yes, she told me how...

teach me a lesson

icedcoffeemallows @icedcoffeemallows (649) • Philippines 10 Nov 08

In all my years of reading, I think now I realize something. That all books only have one or both of two particular things: a story to tell or a lesson to teach. Stories are nice to tell and nice to read. They take you away...

Chyzv88 I guess the very purpose of books is to broaden our knowledge. Whether they are textbooks, novels, short stories, etc, books broaden our horizons. I guess all books would have a lesson to give us, if it gives us new experiences, if it brings us to another...

Chyzv88 If you mean people are suffering because they did bad... then it does not follow. Things happen for a reason and the reasons may sometimes be not clear to us. It doesn't also follow that when who do bad suffer bad things. Some people even reap wealth from...

Are You The One Who Choose Your Profession? Do You Like It??

rberon1985 @rberon1985 (5359) • Philippines 7 Nov 08

I asked this question because I was not the one who choose mine. But I have no choice, I have no choice but to follow them, since they were the one who is providing my tuition fee. They told me that if I am not goint to take the...

Chyzv88 Hi! Teaching is one of the noblest jobs ever! It's good, too that you have finished your studies and have passes to become a professional teacher. Having your license is good already, if you do not intend to use it in teaching, maybe you can use it in the...

Math class

sunshine229 @sunshine229 (79) • United States 18 Sep 08

Honestly....I did great in school. Got A's and B's in my math and Algebra classes. I've never once had to use Algebra in my 34 yrs. I understand basic math is needed. Do we really need anything beyond that?

Linda4ualways @Linda4ualways (2282) • United States 7 Nov 08

I just turned the big 4-0 Wednesday and I was sitting in my room thinking about where my life is at the present moment and became sad. I don't know about you, but when I was a little girl I used to think that 40 was old. I also...

if your child falls while walking, would you let him get up himself or ??

chiaeugene @chiaeugene (2225) • China 29 Oct 08

yesterday, i was at the mall with my family. i have the habit of allowing my 15months son roam and walk by himself. as he is just learning how to run too, he began running around and soon he fell down. I was about 2-3 metres away...

Chyzv88 I admire how you handled the situation, as I admire the fact that as a father you were the one with your child. Not all fathers would have the patience to see a newly-able to walk child in the mall. It was just funny how the woman reacted that way. Maybe she...

Do you enjoy being the first to see a movie?

Rocketj1 @rocketj1 (6955) • United States 6 Nov 08

When I was younger (before kids) and had "money to burn", I enjoyed going to pretty much any new movie that I could. Now that I am a bit more discriminating (and on a budget) I tend to wait to see the reviews before I will...

Chyzv88 I would rather see the movie first without the reviews and comments of other people. I would like to evaluate it based on its merits. That way I would be just amazed at a very good movie or be half satisfied with a not-so-good one. There were times that...

Do you write down your thoughts?

MizzLadyB08 @MizzLadyB08 (1174) • United States 2 Nov 08

Chyzv88 It sad that the Philippines is among the hungriest in the world. It's hard to imagine when in fact, it is an agricultural country. I believe though that the people who are hungry are those who flock their way to manila from the provinces, convinced that...

Ocean or Pool?

cndn420 @cndn420 (2062) • Canada 5 Nov 08

Do you prefer swimming in the ocean or swimming in a pool? Pools are great to swim in cause they can have a comfortable temperature, but oceans/lakes are huge and free and you can do what you want. water skiing, boating and...

Chyzv88 I love the water! And I love swimming in them specially that we are on a tropical country. Pools would be refreshing but nothing takes my breath away than the sight of the ocean. One, because blue is my favorite color and another reason is that, when I was...

ignorance...is not funny anymore

jaymezroolz @jaymezroolz (231) • Philippines 28 Oct 08

We could have expected the saying "ignorance is bliss". Trying telling that you're ignorant to the laws of a different state or country to a policeman and you're still going to jail. "Ignorance of the law excuses no one" is their...

Chyzv88 I guess a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, however, it would be better than ignorance. Knowledge would be dangerous if you choose to use it to endanger you. Knowledge would do you good if one uses it for that purpose also. For instance, the knowing our...
