timou87 i agree with you. when it comes to maintaining a harmonious relationship with ones neighbours, all it takes is some tolerance and lots of give and take. easier said than done i know, but always worth the effort!

Will you accept a straw from strangers?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 30 Apr 07

The day was hot, but that was not what bothered me. I was walking from the train station to a shopping mall, and I was bombarded by noises from both the traffic and construction sites along the way. The noise volume was so high...

timou87 i agree with you. nobody in this world is born equal, we are all born unique and have different outlooks and perspectives of life, so no matter which you choose make sure it is a positive one.

Do you have moments of lonliness or are you lonely a lot of the time??

Lil Bit aka Royal Mom @royal52gens (5488) • United States 14 Mar 07

I find that occasionally I get lonely and crave the company of friends for a chat. Other times, I love the quiet and welcome spending time alone. As I get older, I find that too much noise seems to be annoying. I suppose I could...

timou87 they way you obey traffic rules is very commendable, and such simple rules would save many lives, especially when people risk getting hit or knocked down just because they are late for some meeting. its not worth it.

sabrinam @sabrinam (1203) • United States 13 Jan 07
