My boyfriend broke up with me today.

romania2 @romania2 (237) • Philippines 6 Sep 10

He said that he doesn't see us happy in the future. He thinks that way not because we're unhappy as a couple, but because we're "from two different worlds". We don't have any major problems with each other. We get along and we're...

The real world - Will you face it or run away?

Pose123 @Pose123 (21635) • Canada 29 Jul 09

Today I was talking with one of my nieces who has a daughter and son at a Cadet camp where some people have contracted the H1N1 virus. She is of course concerned, yet I thought the advice she gave them was sound as they are both...

kate635 As they say "reality bites," but we need not to turn our backs from it. It is a part of life and facing it just makes life incomplete. We won't have a sense of fulfilment if we would always run from the hardships we face. I must admit that at times I would say...

Kindness.

Pose123 @Pose123 (21635) • Canada 8 Aug 08

There is a french proverb that says "write injuries in sand, kindness in marble". I think that most of us would agree that this is good advice,if we could but follow it. If we could let the sea of time wash away the harsh words or...
