Maybe its the love, and because love is blinded they were blinded. What important to them is their feelings. They love too much and so they live with it. As the song goes says, too much love will kill you, so they live with.

OK. The wife gets “first fruits” from her husband’s leavings. The mistress gets his “leftovers”. Both women can be content with that. Love? Yeah … eh! Maybe! But it’s probably something that’s not so sentimental or intimate. It’s likely something much more practical. Their needs are being met. Which needs? Sexual needs? Duh! Who cares about that? A roof over her head, clothes on her back, food in her mouth and if there are kids involved they get taken care of too.

Now for some women, they would much rather be independent and know that they have the means to take care of themselves. But for other women … it’s sort of a “way to make a living”. So what if society frowns upon them for their “arrangement”. So what if other women think they’re nuts for allowing it. So what if it’s immoral. So what! In their minds, they have resolved and accepted their life as it is. In other words, ‘You take care of yourself, your way and handle your future. I’ll take of myself, my way, and handle my future!’

For me personally? That kind of arrangement is intolerable. I don’t need to live somebody and be miserable. I can be miserable all by myself! I’d rather be single and free, and die alone and childless, than to put up with that kind of relationship! 🙁

In Jamaica you will find women who go after married men. They do it so as to get the benefits and none of the detriments. The guy gets her an apartment, a car, and can only come on certain times, and she’s free. She doesn’t wash for him, she takes what he gives her and knows how to get more.

For me, never did i imagine in my wildest dream to be a mistressed of someone else which i think is very abomination in the eyes of God. Let’s face it, many people nowadays don’t have moral values which lead them to ruin their life. They have their own rules to follow that’s why they doesn’t even care about other people’s feelings for they were blinded with their own will and selfishness to wrecked a family. I believe, you should stand for with your own principles to steadfast in any illogical relationship that will come your way and avoid temptation by means of praying and a life united to God.

Let’s be honest here we are all to blame for this mass. It’s not really about women wanting to be mistresses many are the times you will find men trying to hit on unsuspecting women. And they will do this knowingly, they will remove their rings from their fingers and act like that are single, then what happens? If course the last will fall right into his trap and start going out with him. Are we now going to say that she got into that relationship willingly? No because she probably asked the man if he was married and his answer was no am not married I do r even have a ring in my finger? When it comes to that man can really defend themselves. But there is a batch of women who just enjoy being with married man regardless of whether they are married or not. Is this a wonder? If course not, they get into this relationships for solely one reason financial stability nothing else. There is never love in this kinds of relationships because they are merely based on material gains. It’s unfortunate that this things happen but people need to realize that love is a serious thing and it involves hearts and hearts that can be broken so be cautious in how you feel with it.

I have seen with my spiritual eye that true is rare on earth as Romeo and Juliet love, free of any greed just spiritual love and full of pleasure.

I see today’s love full of greed, you with me agree, or nor agree, as you like but no body denies fact. Modern love is full of greed of money and every girl is going after the rich man on earth and we may call it Going after Money Race.

We all are born to die I say, we must love men and women with whole hearts, daily bread and butter God will us. Do not worry about your bread it is God’s responsibility.

Learn on earth to love men and women to change hellish earth into paradise. We must follow the religion of humanity, not the religion of money and wealth.

very recently also there was an earthquake of 6.1 intensity in the Philippines. These are also common there. But, you are having a good warning system. your Government is capable of tackling this situation in an effective manner.

You can never be too careful about such calamities,because they come when you are unawares thereby causing a lot mayhem. The one thing I would like to ask is how those typhoons get their names, how do they get to be named the way that they are. But it’s better to be safe than never. The measures that th3 government has put is for a short period of time that could help but is it a lasting situation? This ar3 things that we cannot anticipate but the best we can do is to stay away from places that are prone to such dangers.

Yes. I do agree with you that the big boys have really not enjoyed the big toys like big cars, Helicopter, Airplane, and other Gadgets. They were asked to be satisfied with what they have. These toys were also not there. The parents were lucky. A big car costs about Rs.11 thousand and after bargaining comes to Rs.10 thousands.How can the parents afford for such big toys? Even now also everyone can not afford for such toys. Only children of rich parents can enjoy them. They do not come cheaply or by means of any donations or gifts.Hence, most of the children are now disappointed more than those of the big boys.

when my father bought a bear that drinks wine after giving key I showed it to all my friends and they were all enjoying it. After some time we forgot it and it became a toy for my sister’s daughter. The question of sharing the happiness was involved.

Do we have this sharing of happiness among the present children? Can he share his big car with his friends liberally? Even if he shares the parents interfere and ask him to remain inside the house compound and play with the big toy. They do not like him sharing the big toy purchased with his friends. This means, the element of sharing the happiness is missing among the children.

Time and again they remind their children about the cost of the big toy they purchased for him and not to show to his friends who may mishandle it and damage it.

THE ELEMENT OF SHARING THE HAPPINESS WITH COLLEAGUES THROUGH THE TOYS IS TOTALLY ABSENT AMONG THE CHILDREN OF THE PRESENT GENERATION.

Buying and playing with big toys is dream of the poor because they cannot buy these costly toys. the rich buy the costly toys and when a new toys like car, motor bike comes in the market they buy the big toys because they have money a lot that is why they forget every big toys. I have seen a lot money spending on the big toys make memory weak day by day that is why the rich cannot remind of their childhood and childhood memories.

While on the other hand, those who are poor cannot buy the big toys keep in mind all things present and past big toys and small toys because they have nothing but desire and desires cannot be slipped from the memory till death.

I think time wasting on the big toys is useless because big toys neither increases memory and wisdom nor makes men genius in any filed. Big toys mania makes greedy of more big toys and thus he or she becomes greedy and thus her or his eyes turn into evil eyes.

The best toy in the childhood is natural atmosphere and education that builds human character as role model for the coming generation.

I was watching this story on tv the other day and it is so unfortunate that people who ar3 so vulnerable ar3 th3 ones who get caught up in this kinds of things. It’s very sad that poverty can drive people into doing things that risk their lives If people had a way to make money and just take care of their lives, I doubt if we would be having such incidents. I wish some countries would come up with certain things or jobs that would help the lessfortunate in the society to avoid this kinds of things. I feel so sad that the maid could be executed because of someone else, while they got in jail the owner of the drugs comes out clean and safe. It saddens me but I cannot do anything.

I think the president should show some compassion, he may have strong stance against illegal drug but showing some favorable action not to the family but to the whole nation who are shouting for Mary Jane, he should do some move for the benefit of this modern hero Pinay.

I think there is no place for compassion. We are thinking from the platform of a common citizen. He might have viewed the case from the human point of view. How many innocent youth might have lost their beautiful days due to this drug trafficking? Because Veloso happens to be a woman he should consider his plea. If he takes such stand then the stand taken becomes diluted.

Because it is not only an issue pertaining to Filippino but also to Indonesia where there also the President bent upon chastising the drug pushers. He can not plead time and again his neighbouring country to show sympathy on her.

Such decisions appear to be quite indigestible. What about the efforts made by the police and other Agencies if the criminal is let lose? They lose confidence and control over the public. People will take these agencies very light. At the same time, the position comes back to the point of origin only.

The lady was kept in prison for the last 9 years and a decision for her execution was taken when Mr Duterte took charge of the office. Unfortunately, he had to take such decision which would have been taken by someone else if he had not been in the office.

The decision of president is not good and also not in favor of nation. I think that Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte said Monday that he would not interfere if Indonesia decided to execute a Filipina inmate convicted of drug smuggling, whose case drew international attention last year.

“I told him about Mary Jane and … that Mary Jane brought 2.6 kg of heroin,” said Jokowi, as the Indonesian President is widely known, according to the Indonesian Cabinet Secretary’s website

The Philippine President had previously hinted that we would appeal for Veloso’s life. Before leaving for a regional summit in Laos on Sept. 5, Duterte said he “might just accept the system and plead for mercy.”

According to CNN Philippines, Veloso is due to give testimony in the trial against her alleged recruiters “very soon,” her lawyer said. The Philippine state department said her execution had been indefinitely deferred.

The news I woke up to this morning was about a mosque being vandalized in broad daylight. I guess the vandal was taking advantage of the holiday being celebrated. I don’t know the whole story. But I do know these acts don’t solve any problems or correct anything. The good news is that they were caught on camera.

I have heard some stories and even view in facebook updates that some of our Overseas Filipino Workers especially the Domestic Helpers can received some gifts from their employers. In my interview with Imam, he said this is common, they slaughter some animals and give the meat to the needy and poor people.

Oh..This is a good development towards religious tolerance. Even then,in some parts of Philippines, there are some stray incidents over religion take place. We can not find fault with them as they happen with a spur of emotion. However, such incidents are very rare in every country. Clashes over religious grounds are almost fading away but are being replaced with terrorist activities. This is the sorry state of affairs prevailing in every country.

Thanks for sharing this. I like pinto beans, and I love to cook. So this will come in handy.

If I was going to live in Texas, I needed to learn how to cook beans. 🙂 One day I used a slow cooker. It was a miracle! 🙂
