Can't live without you

cmecu6 @cmecu6 (420) • United States 28 Mar 11

"I can't live without you", "I'll love you forever", "You're the only one", "You're all I want" or "You're all I need". These are just a few of the saying when we want to be with someone right? But; Suddenly, nothing is in...

SusanShayAvon I think that a lot of times it is because things are no longer "new" so to say & so they feel like they have the person. Lots of people look at it as if they already know how much I want them & need them, so there is no need to tell them anymore. It is kind...

Do you know what it is to do without?

Pose123 @Pose123 (21635) • Canada 27 Mar 11

When we give to people who are less fortunate than us, we sometimes experience both sides of the coin at once. We may get some knowledge of what it means to be without. For most of us however we do not truly understand or...

SusanShayAvon I think that we do not know a lot about doing without. And there are some people that do without a lot more than people will ever know. There are so many luxuries that people have that they truly do not even think twice about having. Two of those would be...

Tattoos and teenagers

ladymetal80 @ladymetal80 (191) • United States 27 Mar 11

My husband and I have alot of tattoos on us and my kids are teens. The oldest is turning 18 at the end of the month. She wants to get a tat for her b-day, which I don't really have a problem with. Her brother, who will be 16 next...

SusanShayAvon I think that I would let the 16 year old wait until he also is turning 18 & get his. He may not even want one by then, if he does though then it will be his decision to make. Of course, they are your children & the decision is totally up to you. I know you...

SusanShayAvon I think you have a great point here. Most people do this & do not realize that it actually in a lot of cases hurts the children as much, if not more than it does the parent they are keeping them from. I was with someone who was having this done to them, & it...

Don't judge someone till you've walked a mile in their shoes................

SusanShayAvon @SusanShayAvon (1003) • United States 26 Jan 11

I am sure that everyone of you just as I have heard this so many times. It is only until the past year that I have learned how true this is to be. It is so easy to look at other people & judge them by their actions. I have...

Do you keep a diary?

T_Diamond @T_Diamond (965) • New Zealand 27 Jul 10

I've recently started a diary myself, or a journal as I refer to it. Guess it's because I'm a guy - diary just doesn't sound "manly" enough I must say, I'm enjoying it very much. It's a place where I can rest my...

SusanShayAvon My whole life growing up I always kept a diary, or journal whatever you prefer to call it. I am a firm believer that for myself if I am upset it helps so much just to get it all out on paper for some reason. It does not make anything go away yet it seems to...

Do you just read or do you get really into the book?

SusanShayAvon @SusanShayAvon (1003) • United States 28 Apr 10

I am just wondering what type of reader that everyone is. What I mean by that is do you really get into the book and can see stuff as it happens and can see the actual characters or do you just read it without really thinking...

Bookmarks or folding the page?

kel1483 @kel1483 (986) • United States 28 Apr 10

When you are reading a book how do you mark the page that you leave off on? Do you use bookmarks, fold the corner of the pages down or do you use some other method? For me, I got in the habit of using bookmarks because I borrow...

SusanShayAvon I fold the page or if I know I will be right back because I need to run do something real quick I will just lay the book face down on the page that I am on. I do not use library books just my own. I have found that when using bookmarks, it seems like a prime...

Other people tagging your discussions

Wizzywig @Wizzywig (7847) 28 Apr 10

Do you find that other people often tag your discussion with stuff that is totally irrelevant to the subject of the discussion? Not rude or offensive but just unconnected? I know the topic develops over time and new tags become...

SusanShayAvon I also use donkey mails & when I click on an ad it says that you will receive your money in 15 seconds. So, I am not sure if it is your computer or your browser or maybe it was an off day for the system or something. But is has never done this to me. Has it...

Hair bows are so popular today.

SusanShayAvon @SusanShayAvon (1003) • United States 5 Feb 10
