Listen closely to those you Love, when they are gone there is nothing worse than forgetting their stories, except never having known them in the first place.

Makeup job on the Deceased

Jshean20 @Jshean20 (14348) • Canada 12 Dec 06

Have you ever been to a funeral where the deceased didn't even look like themselves because of all the makeup? I often wonder why they cannot do a better job on the makeup, or if that's the best they can do to make them look...

LadyRae You have to be darn careful about the funeral home you choose. There are good makeup artists and bad ones. I have been to funeral homes that did wonderful jobs and I have been to ones that are awful. Even with a photograph to go by they can't even get the...

How do you know when your getting old?

Chapman15 @Chapman15 (1492) • United States 12 Dec 06

Now I know there's not one day you wake up and say "gee, I'm old", but what constitutes age? My grandpa still plays 18 holes of golf every few days, and he's 74. I have friends that get tired when I play golf with them. I thought...

LadyRae I'm 43 and I finally feel "old", I really believe it has alot to do with spirit. Mine has been challenged just a little too much in the last couple of years and I can feel it. I long for solitude and peace. The exciting things that used to appeal to me no...

LadyRae Definitely the "hottest" show on TV. Its bold, innovative, sexy and always has the shock factor. It definitely spices up an evening much more than watching re-runs of Everybody Loves Raymond or something. I am a fan forever, No Doubt!

If you could switch spots with one person in the whole world who would it be?

martinallison21 @martinallison21 (45) • Canada 11 Dec 06

I would change places with my mother i think. Just because she has been through so much and is so strong that i could learn so much from just being her. She has taught me a lot but being her would even teach me more about survival...

switching places

LadyRae If I could I would switch places with the child I was. I would make better choices and become the adult I know I could have. Not that there isint a million remarkable people I would love to be (if just for a day) but I would really like to see my own...

Does depression physically hurt?

ShadowWalker @ShadowWalker (969) • United States 11 Dec 06

Tell me what all of you think. Does depression physically hurt? If so, in what way? Have you ever been so depressed you hurt? Do you think it's all in the persons imagination? I can tell you from experience I know it does. But I...

LadyRae Yes, depression can physically hurt and it can make you physically sick or worsen a conditon that may already exist. Don't let it consume your life, seek reliable, professional help. Don't just go to a general practitioner and recieve a anti-depressent, go...

Friends, Be Glad For What We Have

texasclassygal @texasclassygal (5305) • United States 11 Dec 06

Too often we under estimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. Here's to T-bone steaks,...

LadyRae What a truly touching story.....It renews my faith in people. I definitely believe that was no chance encounter at the grocery store. You were meant to be there and meant to bump into that lady so your husband could briefly touch you with love and reassure...

fintzu @fintzu (56) • United States 11 Dec 06

So what is the best home made food gift you can give during christmas? Cookies? Fruit cake? Gingerbread house? I am a chef by trade, and am thinking of cooking for people for gifts. Should I just give the gift of a free meal...

LadyRae I think one of the best Christmas presents I ever received from a friend was one year she gave me several jars of home made spagetti sauce and several jars of homemade salsa that she had canned! Oh they were wonderful! Good luck!

rebeka @rebeka (364) • Romania 11 Dec 06

do u belive in magic?Contrary to what those who choose to persecute or lie about us wish to believe, Wicca is a very peaceful, harmonious and balanced way of thinking and life which promotes oneness with the divine and all which...

LadyRae Please note that I readily admit I know very little about Wicca as I have never legitimately practiced it in any organized fashion yet I chose to respond because it fascinated me and always have. I really believe that wiccan ways came naturally to me as far...

DRUG PROBLEMS

wenfri @wenfri (1185) • Canada 10 Dec 06

The other day, someone at a store in our town read that a Methamphetamine lab had been found in an old farmhouse in the adjoining county and he asked me a rhetorical question, ''Why didn't we have a drug problem when you and I...

LadyRae It is is with certainty that i say we don't live in the same world today as we grew up in. Children are so much more in control and it's going to come back to haunt us. We played outside when we were young and didnt come home til the street lights came on,...

The Environment

nancygibson @nancygibson (3736) • France 9 Dec 06

How seriously do you take your responsibility to respect the environemnt? Do you do your best to use only what resources you need, not damage nature and actively do things to compensate for what you do use (like planting trees to...

LadyRae I am 43 years old and I can definitely see the difference in the world I live in today and the world I lived in as a young child. I live in a busy suburb of a city and the litter is heartbreaking. Every stoplight intersection is like a mini dump where people...
