michiganrawfood I don't think it's a good thing to do, but I suppose it is possible if there is an end date in mind. You can't have a real relationship forever online...it's not the same as in person, and you may find the person is different when you do finally get...

Uploading Funeral Wake pictures

kenshin2143 @kenshin2143 (1880) • Philippines 21 Oct 12

Recently, my friend's grandfather died. And today, I was really shocked that she uploaded the picture of his deceased grandfather in Facebook while in his coffin. I find it very immoral to have such a personal picture uploaded in...

michiganrawfood Yeah, I definitely don't think that was appropriate at all. I'm not even sure why it offends me, but it just does. I don't think you should be putting that up on facebook.

michiganrawfood I think if you really want to, you could find a way. Why not live a little ways out, and commute? Or take your children to parks on a regular basis? Start a small indoor garden, and show them how to have some country in the city? Take classes at night...

michiganrawfood Wow, no I don't do this but I think it's pretty cool to have such a routine in the morning-it might make me more likely to wake up earlier lol I have to say though I don't think it matters if you have your tea before you bathe, other than if it is something...

michiganrawfood I think those are good if you work for yourself online, but you can also work from home and online for other companies-in that case you would have a boss, and can be fired. Also, any online job, whether you work for yourself or a company, can close down or be...

Do you believe that "Love is Blind"?

toxic_lifestyle @toxic_lifestyle (1213) • Philippines 22 Oct 12

I don't believed that love is blind. Because love is not really blind. In fact, love can show us the real meaning of beauty. :)

14 responses

michiganrawfood I think love is blind, because when you love someone you really love them despite any flaws. You don't focus on what is wrong, but look for the good. I think you can love someone without approving of any hurtful things they do though. Ignoring the bad doesn't...

Being happy does not mean that your life is perfect!

THISISIT @THISISIT (63) • Philippines 21 Oct 12

Being happy doesn't mean that our life is perfect. It just means that you choose to look past its imperfections and have hope that it's going to get better. Let's start our week right!!!!

michiganrawfood Yeah, I don't think anybody has a "perfect" life, and even if they did they would be bored with that eventually. Meditation has helped me to be able to focus more on the positive things-it helps me be calmer as well.

Are you taking control of your emotions?

msedge @msedge (4011) • United States 19 Jan 09

A lot in our past can be chalked up to inexperience, youth, and happenstance. But now, as an adult, you must claim your choices and their consequences as your own. Negative attitudes affect your life by creating cynicism, a...

michiganrawfood I always wear it when I drive, ticket or not. I think it's crazy they force us to wear a seat belt. Maybe if you don't have health insurance you should get fined...oh wait, would a small fine really make up for the money you would cause the government in...

michiganrawfood Makes perfect sense to me because I have been experiencing it since 2001. Michigan suffered long before the rest of the country, and it's been hard to have a stable job here. When I don't have a lot of money I eat poor quality food and gain a lot of weight....

michiganrawfood Yes, I agree! It's all about money! It's cheaper to make processed foods because they stay on the shelf longer, and people get addicted to them and all the chemicals. Than drug companies and doctors make money when we get sick. It's really disgusting.
