oplopez81 Hi Eileen. I don't think anybody will run out of reasons to live. Nobody in his right mind will take his own life. For sure, something snapped. The only reason I could think of is insanity..tsk...tsk.

oplopez81 I don't avoid houses with pets. I love pets specially dogs. What i don't like is when they allow their pets to enter their house. I think pets should stay outside. You just have to provide them with a shelter. Even if you bathe them everyday, dogs will still...

why would successful women on their career want to get married at the age of 40?

aaronfyzeon @aaronfyzeon (1920) • Philippines 23 Aug 10

Let us all admit it. If you are in the peak of your career and you wouldn't want any distraction from reaching your goals in life then you will just stay single and will also limit yourself from having a relationship that would...

oplopez81 Have you ever thought that when you were a child you wanted to become an adult or at least treated just like one? But when you are an adult you wanted to be young again? Funny but I think this is true. :-))

As a non-smoker, I really wonder why do some people smoke? What do they get from it? Well, in fact the bad effect of smoking is highly publicized.

oplopez81 I agree with the comments of mindreader. There is nothing to legalize. The Philippines do not accept divorce. There is no such thing as an "illegal divorce". The more appropriate would be "to have a law that will allow divorce" in the country. Also, the...

Do you believe that brands reveal your own strength and personality?

mai200725 @mai200725 (77) • Philippines 19 Aug 10

Brands reflect the product.It is determinative of your choice to own a thing of such high quality because you trust the product and the benefits that comes with it.And what you wear tells about you, if not all, a part of your own...

oplopez81 I don't really go for brands. What I am after for is the style that I like and the conmfort when I am wearing it. As I personally see it, branded clothing is just a status symbol. if I have the money to buy then why not? The problem lies on some who are so...

oplopez81 My family and I always attend Sunday mass. That was the way our parents brought us up. If I can have time to attend other activities and parties, why can't I go to a 1 hour "party" with the Lord? I don't want to sound like somebody with a "holier than thou"...

oplopez81 Hi udaymohan. I do not see anything wrong with hiring a house helper as long as you can afford to pay the salary and you treat your helper with dignity. There are really households who need househelpers because they can not do the chores by themselves as they...
