    kaylar wrote a new post, Investing Your Life in Someone Else 7 years, 11 months ago

    The biggest mistake you can accomplish in life is to make another person the centre of your existence.

    Whether this Other is a parent, a spouse or a child, to invest your life in some one else’s existence a […]

    • You can give and show someone all your love and still have your own mind set. You should never love to the point were you can’t think for yourself. Yes this happens to people all over the world. You have to love and have space at the same time do your thinking yourself. Just share your opinion on what you were thinking about but never let someone fully have control over your mind and body. It’s not healthy at all. It can even cause bad event’s to happen in the Long run.

      I had a friend wsh. She was in love. She loved just a lil. To hard.nothing was never about herself it was always about him. She didn’t even think for herself. This was for every situation,when it came to her clothes,what they were eating that night, where she went even who she called. To her it seemed normal because in her mind she couldn’t focus without him. It’s like that was the only person who existed. This was real bad for her because she no longer had a life. She never went anywhere did anything. Stop dressing up because she was worried bout what he would say and what he would think. She didn’t even work because he didn’t want her to. He still had a life did what he wanted.was able to go out and about. Then apparently he ended up falling for someone else. Leaves her after she dedicated her life to him. This caused sever health issues for her it even put her in the hospital for whole week. Couldn’t eat or sleep. He was her life and he took it away.it put stress on her heart and mind she even lost all her weight. It’s like she was no longer here. Her Mind was gone.nothing existed anymore, her only exists was him. I had to find out through her mother she was even in the hospital because for months I hadn’t heard from her because she cut everyone off for him. So there she was in the hospital bad healthy mentally and physically. No friends(I’m still here of course) and no job.

      This don’t only happen with bf GF relationships and marriages this happens with family to.itll cause bad greif. Not healthy at all. So love hard keep a wall up at the sametime. Still have your own life don’t make someone your life.

      • Perfectly put. As in the example of Bobby and his father. The father tried to live through his son, who wanted his own life. As with your GF… I have seen it many times. And the man just gets to the point he escapes because he can’t breathe for both of them.

    Mistake One
    Underpaying.
    When an employee feels underpaid they ‘top up’ their salaries. They steal, they unwork, (which is different from not working) and they waste a lot of time so that they can feel … “Ok […]

    kaylar wrote a new post, Run ‘way Yardies; and their Opinions 7 years, 11 months ago

    Jamaica has a large population of ‘run ‘way yardies’.

    Yardies is a term for Jamaican, and ‘run ‘way’  means run away… that is; a Run ‘way Yardie is a person who left  Jamaica to make a ‘better life’ in anoth […]

    • Once again, not defending the Yardie’s decision to leave or your decision to stay. Fortunately both of you were FREE to choose where you want to live. My daddy left The Bahamas and also my husband. Very likely they both had the same reasons for not wanting to go back. They married American women that they could not convince to go back home with them. 🙂 But I think even if they weren’t married, when they left their native land, they had no intention of ever returning. It was a personal choice.

      As far as the person sending you a nasty tweet … Eh! That’s to be expected. At least you know people see and read what you write! But thank goodness for delete and block buttons. Can you please tell me what is “NSFP”? (O.o)

    • The point is, I am sure, if I were from the Bahamas, living in the Bahamas, and wrote about a current political situation in the Bahamas your husband would NOT attack me as if I were bad mouthing his country and my opinion is subordinate to his. That is the point.

      He is NOT there. Sure, John can ring him up and say blah blah, and Tom can text him and say blah blah, but I am living here, day after day, so when I describe a political situation, i.e. that the general election only got 43% of all registered voters, and 30% of all registered voters in the Local, I am not making it up. Those are real statistics.

      Not Suitable For Print…. that was my abbreviation. Like NSFA.. Not suitable for Airplay.

      Your father left for his reasons, your husband left for his reasons. I am not criticising them. I am only saying that if I were from the Bahamas and said that the traffic on Carmichael Road was backed up with a two hour wait because of a broken pipe, I would not expect either of them to attack me.

    • Noses can be such a disappointment. There are those that you can tolerate but there are those who are unbearable. I thank God that through my work experience I haven’t heard a boss who has been over bearing to the point of shouting or hawling at people. Am one of those people who cannot stand a noisy or abusive boss I don’t think I can contain all that rubbish. I mean am just as human as you are why can’t you treat me with respect just like I do to you. What people forget is that even though you are my boss, that should not give you the mandate to walk all over me like an nothing. Most of the time if you find such bosses walking all over their employees most of those employees are usually more smarter than that are. If this kind of treatment goes on for long the best thing is to leave that company before you are sacked for being rude. You ar3 better off out then being in a situation where you cannot even grow because of negative treatments all through.

    My view is to try to post 3 items a day.   When reaching $10 wait until the beginning of the month to put in for only that $10 even if you have $13.00  this will enable you to ‘start’ with $3.00 in your account for next month.

    So… you join in June, you make 7.45, in July, after the 10th, you reach $10.00, by August first you have $11.00.  …[Read more]

    • Growing old is part of life. And we learn about life as we grow. We learn the right from the wrong the best from the worst. You have to experience thing in order to learn the truth and the right from the wrong. There so many paths to take in life and as we grow we gonna experience alot. We learn how to love better than we did before we learn how to care better than before.we all going to grow old one day and we have to accept it. We can’t stay young forever. When you grow old things will begin to get less frustrating, because you know how to deal with and manage things better. We’re all gonna make mistakes as we grow. But it only helps us become better people and better at the things we do. So live life to the fullest. Never back down if you can’t get something right don’t worrie, you’ll soon become better and better at what you do..You can’t get everything right.

      • The reality is that once one reaches a certain age, few people want to take any advice or guidance and when you blurt out something, either they get angry or play they haven’t heard it and make their own mistakes.

    • You are fortunate to live in a society where Seniors are prized and respected. In other parts of the world, alas, that is not the case.

    • You may say the Macedonian kids did not break any laws. Sometimes people who lie don’t break any laws, but they sure cause a lot of damage! It brings to mind the fable of the boy who kept “crying wolf”. Only in the story when the wolf was a real danger, nobody believed the boy. In our case, you’re saying the kids “cried wolf”, a lot of people believed, but there was never a real wolf.

      Whether or not there’s a connection between the Macedonians and the Russians … there’s a great probability or possibility that Russia could be a real wolf!

      Americans are anti-Russian? Or will an investigation expose that the Russians are anti-American? The history of our relations shows that we were never “happily married”.

      If a government of a country doesn’t take action to protect the citizens of that country, who will? If there is a possibility of wrongdoing, it needs to be checked. Whoever is in charge has to make that call.

    • Very good discussion. It can be a reflection to others. This might serve as a wake-up call to them and do good than what they used to do. Be humble than losing friends. Fame is useless if you don’t have friends.

      Nice discussion. It inspires me a lot.

    • True self introspection and being humble one to keep his feet on the ground. Many a time fame, status and wealth play the spoilsport and build a false ego and attitude in a individual. This affects the growth of the individual in different ways. People would not want to interact and tolerate the nuisance which that person would be.

      Many would like the company of other who are better and be happy with using their services. Rather than people as the above character. One more thing is I have observed if we try to help such people by pointing them the issue so that they may reform they will take it as a offence and get annoyed with us. Hence it is better to keep a safe distance from such people and not be one like them. Thanks for the share.

    If you read the rules, if you put in for a redemption before the 10th of Month One you will be paid in Month Two on the 10th.  That means that if you put in for a redemption on the 17th of Month One it will not be looked at until the 10th of Month Two and you will be paid the 10th of Month Three.

    • There are always two sides to ever coin. If an honest person can hide their computer activity, a dishonest person can too! You wouldn’t leave your door wide open, go to sleep, and simply believe that your home will be safe from intruders. Your computer is “your home in cyber space”. DO whatever you have to do to protect it from unlawful intrusion / invasion, without breaking the law yourself of course. Good safety tips! Thanks! 🙂

      • You have to think of your security and focus on it, just as a private person. One is astounded that any agency/organisation would take they security so lightly.

        • Well here’s the thing. The companies and corporations hire people they believe are qualified and will apply their knowledge, skills and abilities to keep the records safe and secure. From the CIO (Chief Information Officer) all the way down to the lowliest programmers, each is expected to “do their job”. When they don’t, bad things can happen. But sometimes, even though they did do their job, there was some malicious attacker out there who took aim and managed to break through anyway. Haven’t we seen buildings and banks with sophisticated alleged “burglar-proof” security systems but they were still broken into and robbed? Like you say though … you got to try to put up some kind of barriers. It’s business and it’s personal!

    • Wow I really enjoyed reading this topic. Marriage plays a big role in our lifes.its great to have that one love forever.but must a say it takes to too make a relationship not one. Your husband or wife is suppose to be your partner in everything. You want always agree with everything but you must learn to listen and understand your partner. Your partner is suppose to be your best friend at the same time. If you don’t show any effort that your trying at all then yes that can ruin EVERYTHING. You gotta show you care and give each other a chance. Don’t set boundaries that you know are impossible or one of the other will eventually get tired and start pulling away. Show each other that you care and wanna make the best out of every situation.
