What Would You Change?

amyaeric @amyaeric (80) • United States 24 Apr 12

Is there anything from your past that you would change? If I had been asked this question a few years ago I would have had a list longer than my arm. However today I would have to say that I look at my past in a new way and...

livefree246 I completely agree with you. All our life experiences have made us the people we are today. Since we cannot change the past or go back it is wasted time and energy to dwell on something that is impossible. However, if I were given a chance to go back I would...

"Ladies and Gentlemen!..." Werent the Ladies Gentle?

theSids @thesids (22180) • Bhubaneswar, India 24 Apr 12

Hi friends and lotters At any gathering, it is a norm here to start with "Ladies and Gentlemen!" and I believe this has been existing for long. People accepted this and see nothing wrong or even satirical in...

livefree246 Wow, it never occurred to me...So I went on Wikipedia.org and found that "ladies and gentlemen" began as titles. It made a distinction between the classes in England. In modern times it does not have a place so much other than just a formal polite...

Graceekwenx @Graceekwenx (3160) • Philippines 23 Apr 12

Friends.. Are there times that you put off whatever sick feeling you have because you needed to report to work? I woke up with nape pain, i knew i was becoming hypertensive. I needed to rest but i just texted my boss and told...

livefree246 Holy Cow Graceekwenx, I spent 15 years putting off my sick feelings so that I could go to "work." It is my belief that our work is not as stressful and complex as the world leads us to believe. Yes, we need money to provide for ourselves but let's face it,...

Commenting without comment

zaga_cleuth @zaga_cleuth (1407) • Philippines 23 Apr 12

We usually receive comment, replies or responses like no comment or sorry I don't know that or I have no idea about that from a person whom we personally ask. It is ok, yes. But, here in mylot, I can say that when a person...

livefree246 Hi Zaga_cleuth, Commenting just to comment or receive points is no different than having a job that you hate but perform on a daily basis just to receive a paycheck. I find a certain freedom in mylot because of the anonymity. Who knows who reads these...

livefree246 Hello xgjzhot, I think most people have a fear of death because nothing is know about what really happens. People have faith in an afterlife because of religious teachings but no one really knows what happens after the body dies. So back to your question...
