I have never been diagnosed with migraines

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (160626) • United States 29 May

Although it is not unusual for me to get headaches, they usually go away easily, with a cup of coffee or with food, or sleep but. . . These last three days I have been miserable. I have headaches that just will not go away. I...

Kevin How are you feeling now? I do get ocular migraine, probably because of sinusitis, and an irritated nerve somewhere.

In India its quite common for extended family members to interfere in others life. What we do everyday, where we spend money, when we will have kids and what gift we are going to give them. They keep comparing you with others and...

Kevin I can understand how frustrating this can be. I would not have liked this too. I am from Mauritius and it's more or less the same culture, as our ancestors came from India and the culture came along with them. I live in an extended family by choice and I love...

Deleting Emails

[eds] @ZedSmart (19787) • Philippines 10 Jan 21

I have more than five thousand to date and most of it are not important. Last night, I removed at least 500+. I already deleted perhaps half of the number since it was created in 2004 and those are not part of the current number....

Kevin I can relate to what you are going through. I also have hundreds of unimportant emails in my inbox for no reason. It's because I have subscribed to too many sites. Sometimes, I happen to delete the unimportant emails right away or sometimes, I wait for them to...

A Different Kind of Resolution

Jim Bauer @porwest (90118) • United States 1 Jan 21

I did it as a joke. As the New Year rolls around each year a lot of people like to talk about resolutions. I never play that game because of two reasons. I never actually resolve to do anything, and I have always thought that if...

Congrats! You've survived 2020.

Key @hidvcmbr (248) • Malta 1 Jan 21

Just because the year end doesn't mean our problems disappear, but I wish all of you would always have the strength to go through the thick and thin. Happy new year! Anyway, have you set your new year's resolution? What's that?

Been over 2 years since I last took some leave. After this year of hell and having to work my butt off, I am well a truly tired, as is the rest of the world. I hardly remember how to relax anymore. What does everyone do when they...

Working on Contentment

Arya @yoalldudes (35037) • Philippines 26 Dec 20

I had been blessed with the sweetness and passion I had with my relationship with my now current partner of 17 years. But it was also unhealthy and chaotic. As I try to hold it together for my daughter, it has taken a toll on my...

Kevin In essence, the foundation of relationship is emotion and the purpose of life has nothing to do with emotion; it has to do with duties (dharma) first. If I have to choose between my purpose and my relationships, I would choose my purpose because that's the...

Kevin You are right. Making friends is a good thing but we must not appreciate them only when they help us. We must always appreciate them, whether they are quiet, far or connected and close. I used to have a larger circle of friends but with time, I reviewed my...

Marsha @MarshaMusselman (38865) • Midland, Michigan 3 Dec 20

I bought my stove/oven seven years ago and all newer models sold here have the self-cleaning feature. I heard that when that feature is working the temps are very high. I'm afraid to try to clean the oven that way as I don't want...

City streets are full of beggars

Alex Socorro @Alexandoy (65308) • Cainta, Philippines 25 Dec 19

On our way to the family reunion, it seems that all the main thoroughfares in the city have people who are begging. They are not beggars but just plain opportunists who are using the season for begging. Worse, they even use their...
