Midnight thoughts

Ria Roy Happiness is being satisfied with your life. One who is satisfied with the hand to mouth meals they have every day can be just as happy as a rich industrialist. Usually it depends a bit on the income at first, because practically speaking having zero bank...

Has anyone here experienced difficulties letting go of the past?

Teddy @ColdFlame (109) • Bulgaria 12 Oct 18

Yup, we all make our own decisions and hopefully for most of you, rarely end up feeling any bad consequences from them. I was in a long relationship ( lasted 5 years)... It ended up leaving both me and my ex bitter towards one...

Ria Roy Yes the past has pulled me back so many times, but what I learned over the years is that if I make the present my anchor, then the pull becomes less and less painful. Nothing truly goes away completely, but my focus isn't there anymore. Like anything, it took...

Trump needs to MAN UP & take the criticism like every other U.S. President did!

flpoolbum @flpoolbum (2978) • United States 13 Oct 18

Trump's ego is so delicate that he wants to make protesting in front of the White House and other spots in Washington D.C. (our nation's capital) illegal! Throughout our history, Presidents and other elected officials had to...

Ria Roy True leaders take criticism and praise alike in their stride. Not all the people are going to like you. Trump's twitter feed is so immature sometimes, complaining on every little bit. He tries to intimidate other nations by threatening on public platforms....I...

who needs sleep?

Romiella @summerx (81) 13 Oct 18

Is anyone still awake, or is it just me? I took a crazy long nap earlier in the day and I'm wide awake. It was one of those 'lay down for 5min., wake up 5hrs later' nap. So sleeping is not an option lol
