mulanmatu Thank you Erika; guess you're right. Initiating this discussion months back and reading them now, makes me cringe with embarassment. I guess, I need not "ask."

What is your favorite spot in Baguio City? It's not easy for me to pick just one so I thought a survey might help me look at Baguio spots from a different perspective. :)

What keeps you to stay. To hold on. To keep on fighting? To be. To stay. To live? Do you think life is worth the struggle? Is it worth living at all?

mulanmatu Whoa! This one seems interesting. A two-word reply that means a lot. "Unique vision." A vision into something great, beautiful, and immensely satisfying. But pity us. We can visualize. We can have a vision. But we don't have a say in this unfolding...Our...

I recently went to a second hand store out of curiosity. To my pleasant surprise, they do have a few good buys. Like a good just serviced APRICA pram, which would cost me $550, i bought it for $16!! That's a steal to me. They...

mulanmatu Ok, let me qualify my statement. I said "it's not uncommon" for people who can afford new goodies to have a "distaste" for the second-hand stuffs. Now, in that statement, I think it's obvious that I am not generalizing to the whole. And my claim speaks as much...

What are we? Are we good? Or are we bad? Are we predisposed for goodness or for badness? Are we inherently good? Or bad? How do you see your nature?

I know I sleep too much.I've been called lazy by my family.I try to get myself going in the morning but it's hard sometimes.I have to get people to call me to wake me up sometimes.

do you sleep to much or to little

5 responses

mulanmatu I think I sleep too much. Bad. I don't like it. But if I sleep too little, i feel uneasy the whole day. I think that more of this has to do with one's expectations and dispositions.

mulanmatu It depends. When one can afford well, a distaste for this second hand goods is not uncommon. But when one can't the second hand stores, are treasure troves. As for me, I'm in the latter.

Would stay with your boyfriend even if he hits you? This happens to one of my friends. She's beautiful and a very good friend of mine. I just knew this lately for she's been hiding the bruises on her legs and arms. I noticed it...

mulanmatu A guy who hits a woman doesnt deserved to be loved. To be honest, if this would happen to me, I would hit him back. I might even kill him. He has no right to do that. Any woman is not a property and is not inferior to any man. A man who batters a wife deserve...

mulanmatu Yes, the Jungian collective consciousness, sounds like pantheism, monism. A holistic view on things, to which I agree, in a way. But, questions still abound in this head. And I think, Im bound for doom. If there's one thing I can't get away with, it's...

Can you remember your first day of work? I have not worked a full time job in 6 years. I've been a stay at- home- mom. How do you make that transition? It feels so strange. I didn't realize how out of touch I was. I interviewed...

mulanmatu Good. But you're still in the rat race, dear. You still chose the well-travelled road rather than create a new road. At the end of it all, I hope you will be fine.

I wonder how diverse our conceptions of God are. Do you see God as a human being? An authoritative Being? The Omniscient, Omniprescent One? A point of light? Allah? Buddha? Brahma Baba? Why do we have such variety?

mulanmatu It's been awhile since I read this message but was not able to get back to it. Yes, god as an energy resonates with what I think of him. An energy that can be omnipresecent, but not omnipotent. omniscience but, he gets the sentience of finite beings to get...

I consider myself pro choice. I wish like hell that abortions didn't happen, but I understand why they do. I believe in a woman's right to choose what to do with her body. I believe that pregnancy is not something that all women...

mulanmatu It depends. Pro-choice. Pro-choice before conception (use contraceptives, manage you reproductive life) but once the baby is conceived, you have no right to choose. You should let the pregnancy continue. It's like accepting the responsibilities of a behavior...
