*results not typical*

Sillychick @Sillychick (3275) • United States 14 Jan 08

This is the tiny disclaimer you see on every add for a weight loss program. A person is saying they lost 30 pounds and that is not typical. Well, what is typical? 5 pounds? 10? Why don't they tell you that? I don't think I would...

classicaljazz I completely agree as someone who has spent hundreds even thousands of dollars to lose weight over the years only to have dieted myself even fatter! I could not for the life of me understand what I was doing wrong until I found a weightloss plan designed for...

Please, a penny for your thoughts!

Although I'm not Christian, I do believe in God. I've always believed that God has given us Free Will. Free Will means that we are free to choose how we live our lives. If this is true, how is it possible to sin against...

beckish @beckish (641) • United States 1 Sep 07

I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome twelve years ago. Most of the pain happens at night; often I have to get up and walk around to get the painful sensation to leave my fingers and let me go to sleep. During the day I...

classicaljazz Have you considered chiropractic care? I was suppose to have surgery but was told that it was only helpful for about 6 years. I was seeing a chiropractor for my migraines and he did some nerve tests and told me that under his care he could keep me out of pain...

Honesty and feelings

Trace86 @Trace86 (5030) • United States 31 Aug 07

I was thinking the other day that if my stepson somehow read the things I have written pertaining to him here, he would be hurt and angry. It wouldn't matter that they were true and correct. He might be hurt that I was telling...

classicaljazz First, I commend you for realizing that you were venting in a possibly inappropriate place or at least venting too often or too specifically. Second, I think that it is important to find safe places to get advice. I do not know what you are dealing with with...

classicaljazz I have experienced this once. I was on my second job interview for an insurance company and before we started the interviewer told me, "We don't hire anyone under 22". I was 19. I told him, "Well most 19 year olds aren't married with debts to pay." He let me...

Does Success In Life Means Having Lots Of Money?

argie713 @argie713 (1809) • Philippines 17 May 07

Hi there! I was just wondering if success = money. For me you can succeed in life and not be rich. We are here for a purpose, and not all of us are meant to be rich people. I learn to be contented with my life. Just do what you...

classicaljazz I think success looks different to everyone. Money does not equal success to me. Changing lives, integrity, friends and finishing strong is what success means to me.

classicaljazz Try a freezer pop, the kind that are liquid when you buy them. Poke a hole in the plastic. They will enjoy the flavor while they numb their gums. Also a cold washcloth is helpful.

Do you think Christmas still holds its original meaning?

MandaPanda1219 @MandaPanda1219 (47) • United States 13 Dec 06

Chistmas has almost become so secular that it barely reflects its religious roots at this point. I dont want to offend anyone, but now days, most kids when asked what Chistmas means will tell you "Getting presents", I have seen...

classicaljazz Christmas is what you make of it. If you buy into the secular views of Christmas then that is what your children will follow. If you sit them down and teach them about Christ and show them what Christmas is truly about then that is what they will follow.

Why do we feel it necessary to spend so much money at Christmas?

vronron @vronron (83) • Canada 14 Dec 06

I feel this "trend" (if you can call it that) wearing on me, not to mention my pocket book. Every year it seems that the amount people spend goes up and up. Why do we do this? What happened to making gifts, or giving cookies?...
