jshekhar I absolutely love to make friends with someone with different interest, may be a different country. It gives me a chance to exchange the thoughts, the cultural inputs and a do things that I wouldn't normally do with someone with similar interest.

jshekhar We are always complaining about how biased the society is towards the masculine gender. However, I would suggest you to stop taking it all upon yourself. I mean, what good would money bring if your health deteriorates in earning it and you are not able to...

Are you scared to give strangers a ride?

Dominique25 @Dominique25 (9464) • United States 22 Jan 13

I often see people walking down the road. I would love to be able to give someone a ride. But with the times we are living in it's just not safe to pull over and ask someone if they need a ride. It's sad to think about those...

jshekhar Ideally we should never even ask this question and offer a ride to people walking down the street. But, as you mentioned, given the time we are living in, we simply cannot trust someone like that. I've made a rule for myself, never to give a ride to a...

In the habit of justifying laziness

bounce58 @bounce58 (17385) • Canada 21 Jan 13

Hero falls

savypat @savypat (20216) • United States 15 Jan 13

A big deal here is the fall of Lance Armstrong, the bike racer. For me I can feel sorrow that he broke the rules, abused people and just used his ability in an unfair way. OR, I can see this person as another human, who is living...
