The Fountain of Youth. Would you turn back time if you had the opportunity?

mentalward @mentalward (14690) • United States 6 Jan 10

This idea popped into my head from another discussion and started me wondering about how many people would want to be younger again if they had the chance. I'm not talking about plastic surgery because that's only changing the...

rantingqueen If it meant turning back the clock and doing it all over again, I would not want to do it. I've lived through the good, the bad and the ugly. I've learned valuable lessons that shape who I am today. And most of all, I would not want to lose the people and the...

rantingqueen I would start by calling your local human service department. In many cases, they are able to assist with issues such as this. There are emergency funds set aside to help with winter heating bills, repairs and home improvements. It is usually based on income,...

Would you consider motherhood as an achievement?

Masmasika @Masmasika (1921) • Philippines 6 Jan 10

Perhaps motherhood is one of the toughest responsibilities ever handed to a woman. Motherhood is an achievement in itself. The fact that the woman has carried the baby for nine months then bore him out into this world is already...

rantingqueen Yes! Motherhood is an achievement. Any female can get pregnant, any female can carry a child for 9 months. The true achievement is in caring for your child, raising them to have a strong set of morals and beliefs, teaching them to cook, clean, do laundry and...

Need Help

I been talking to a man online for over a year and i am truly in love with him but he talks to another women and lies about a lot of stuff.What should i do?

29 responses

rantingqueen Unfortunately, if you cannot trust a person, you cannot have a truly loving relationship. If you know for a fact that he is lying to you, it is time to put him behind you. It does not matter if he talks to other women, if he is open and honest with you...

Do you ever receive wrapped christmas gift, still with price tag inside?

Ysabel @Ysabel (1201) • Philippines 6 Jan 10

And do you casually mention it to the giver? Or, its not a big deal at all and simply ignore it? Oftentimes I just ignored an incident, but what makes it significant this time was that during the recent holidays, I received a...

rantingqueen I have received gifts before with the price tag still attached. I just ignore it. It is usually because the person wrapping it forgot to take the tag off, or were afraid that the gift would not be something that I would enjoy and wanted me to be able to return...

rantingqueen I am experiencing almost the same thing today. My daughter has a small cold, and stayed home from school. I use the movies to keep her in bed, and I do go in from time to time to lay down with her. It seems to help if she has company for a bit every now and...

do you listen to that little voice in your head?

ahgong @ahgong (10064) • Singapore 27 Jan 09

I am sure most of us have heard a little voice in our head telling us to do something at one time or another. Some call that little voice instinct. Some choose to call it intuition. But that voice is there. You...

rantingqueen I listen to it always, to be honest. There are a few times I didn't listen, and the results were not so great. It is usually right about not doing something, getting something done now, whether to trust or not trust a situation or person. I would bet that...

rantingqueen My husband and I rarely go out to eat anymore. With 5 kids, eating out costs us the price of 3 meals made at home. Add into it a tip, and we are hitting the cost of 4 meals at home. If we do go out, I still tip with the 15% rule. While I do understand that...

What do we fear more?

deserve40 @deserve40 (1656) • India 24 Jan 09

We have fear about many things. Some things are such that they are out of our control and some things we try to get control over. However, what do you fear more? Is it the failure or something other than failure?

rantingqueen I fear the things I cannot control. Failure is just a chance to learn from our mistakes and get it done right the next time. However, the things we cannot control, such as war, price hikes, falling markets, those things scare me.
