emrajr69 Don't you have a family? And aren't they the most precious things in your life? We write about and discuss the things we care about the most in life. So, it is logical that most people will respond to discussions about family.

emrajr69 Walking in the rain was one of the most pleasureable things to do when we were kids, suitably dressed of course. It just shows that the best things in life really are free!

emrajr69 What has money got to do with love? Love is a reciprocal feeling between two people. It has nothing to do with how much money you have in your pocket. My husband and I both come from lower working-class backgrounds. Our families often had little to spare for...

emrajr69 Sunny, do you believe that your husband truly loves you? If you do, then the fact that he doesn't remember your birthdate is of no consequence. Men just don't think that those things are important. I've been married for 40 years and on a regular basis my...
