How do I learn to love others genuinely...?

applepod @applepod (224) • Malaysia 8 Jul 09

I dont really know what it is to love or to be loved. I can do all sorts of nasty things to satisfy my selfish self but I cant love. Can anyone help me with tips, suggestions, advice I could take in my mission of learning to...

ToddAndrews be a little nicer to yourself. We all do things to satisfy ourselves, which is perfectly fine. But, i dont think you should label yourself "selfish". In terms of loving others, maybe you start by first having a genuine interest in people, and getting to know...

What do you think of the idea that religion is for controlling society?

kheng69 @kheng69 (156) • Malaysia 8 Jul 09

Because I have thought of this and thought. And then came this video game, I forgot the name where you can make civilizations and then make churches and religion to keep people calm during times of war and stuff. But then...

ToddAndrews I guess it can somewhat. Depending on the society. If its a society that is not tolerant of other beliefs, then it forces everyone to think the same. In doing this, all of the people abide by the same rules (mostly) and live by the same laws. So, it can be...

ToddAndrews Try to find something you're interested in in your classes. Sometimes, a part of school is getting through the courses we don't rly have an interest in but have to take. Also, maybe you can find a little motivation by hanging out with or talking to students...

ToddAndrews I checked it out. It's pretty good. If you create a twitter page for yourself, you can list the website on your profile, so people will click on it if they ever visit your profile. Maybe you can create a blog???

ToddAndrews Its tough. Getting people to respond. I haven't figured it out myself. My best guess would be to keep plugging away at it, but don't burn yourself out. Also, maybe sending more friend requests, and commenting alot on the discussions of others may help. One of...

Are you looking forward to the comming of tommorrow?

wanghui0210 @wanghui0210 (218) • China 23 May 09

Sometimes, when I sleep at night, I am so tired that I don't want to wake up again. There is nothing that I am looking forward to in the next day. I knew this opinion is passive, but I can't help to think about it. How about...

ToddAndrews Wait a second. oh nooooooo, you should always have something to look forward to the next day. It's more pessimistic than it is passive. What can you do to feel a bit differently? Sometimes, I have a habit of worrying, maybe the first thing i think about...

ToddAndrews I do think that treasury bonds will head higher. As of now, I think some of the biggest holders of U.S. treasuries are China, the OPEC, and maybe some carribean countries. When there are more buyers for treasuries, it was also make the prices go up. As for...

In this economy is it best to take a few years off your career to raise children

Just4some @Just4some (49) • Canada 21 May 09

We have all worked hard to earn that spot on the career ladder. Many of us dream, want, desire and anticipate having a family. I am torn about leaving a career I have established over the last 12 years but do want to spend all the...

ToddAndrews I don't think you should. Since you've been building for 12 years, perhaps you shouldn't stop now. Maybe you can devote a little less attention to your career, and slow down a bit, but do not stop. I'm not sure what your schedule is like, but it's best not to...

ToddAndrews I prefer facebook. Myspace can be spammed alot by ads for random things. And, people have made use of myspace to promote music ventures. Not that theres anything wrong with that...But, facebook is more straightforward. Ironically, FB is right behind that with...

ToddAndrews I started school early myself. It is a good thing to see your child excel at a young age. However, they may encounter social problems when other students find out about their age. Also, since your child is younger, they may physically mature later and become...

ToddAndrews English. I had a bad experience with math in the 8th grade and didn't like it during high school. And, I enjoyed writing more. Ironically, I'm now an economics major, where you use both, but more math and analysis.
