    • life has all features we have to take the good one leaving the bad ones. I have been living and leading a life like this. Had I given importance to bad things, my life would have been different without any happiness

      So cope with the best leave the rest

      • You have understood the meaning of life. One has enough avenues to keep oneself usefully occupied even without having anyone in their life.

    • If one has an internet he can be entertained by the many sites he gets to join like this and myLot.

      You can share your loneliness and the friends you made can advise and comfort you.

      You can download games on your tablet and play with them like what you play the virtual poker.

      Actually, I have lots of things to do in the net but I have no enough time though to do them all because I have my full time job to attend to first.

      So nowadays, to be lonely and to be happy is just in your fingers or through the net.

    • The importance of human being is on the wane as there is enough an more to keep onself usefully occoupied and in fact one is better of sometimes without them.

    • You have no chance of winning over an angry person. Yes, just let him say his peace and just be calm.

      That’s actually how we are when we are angry, we are ready to attack with our mouth and sometimes with our fists. But once we have unleash it we realize what we have done, but too late to repair the damage that was done.

      Though, in what you call the rabid Anti-Putin, it is best to just keep your silence on the subject.

      I learn that politics and religion are two of the most sensitive topics actually.

    • I must agree with you on this one. Of all states visited in my years of travelling, DC was one of my best. I had the opportunity to be a real tourist by visiting the White House, Capitol Hill, Monuments etc. We also visited George Town where we went on a boat cruise for my sisters 40th. To be honest with you, I enjoyed DC, they had too many attractions for visitors, from the zoo, to the museums, we also saw the J. Edgar’s FBI building. Dc was an exceptional trip for me, it was not just about shopping alone, which is what I usually do. Thank God my sis insisted on visiting the tourist attractions.

    What happens to siblings when they leave home and start a life of their own? They seem to be buried in their new found responsibilities that they have no time for those who were so close to them once upon a […]

    • Luckily, in our clan, most of the children although have grown up are still so close to one another. They may not be with each other always, but when they do, they share stories and laugh non-stop.

      Though, there is one family amongst our clan who are divided because the eldest, a son is so greedy. He wants more as his inheritance from the dead mother’s properties. Same with that from his father.

      In fact, he is the only opposing one amongst the clan in peacefully agreeing for the share computed for a big resort that the clan owns and will be selling.

      But still I am praying that he will mellow and be agreable with the division per family because it was anyway divided equally.

      • It has more to do with preoccupation and wanting to spend time with their own nuclear family. With just one or two children in a family they cling to each other and therefore have no time for their siblings.

    • I agree. Especially, if you separated from your husband because he beats the wife, physically and verbally.

      There are a lot of cases here in the Philippines, where the woman separated from her husband because of that. Then, the husband would ask for another chance and the woman would go back, because of their children who wants them back together.

      Sad to say, that the man beats her again physically and verbally.

      Now, she has to file a complaint and have her husband imprisoned. That should be what is to be done for a husband who beats his wife.

      • When a woman marries an abusive man, he often so destroys her sense of herself, she second guess her actions. Because her confidence is shaken, she makes the mistake of letting him back into her life for dire consequences.

    • Trump has always been true to his character even before he became US president. His flaws was always there to see for anyone who bothered to pay attention. For Trump it was “ME,ME,ME First!” During the presidential campaign he use “bait and switch” tactics promising the electorate things he had no intention to fulfill. Unfortunately for him the general public is getting tired of his childish antics and Trump’s credibility continues to erode. He’s like the boy who cried “wolf”.

      • He is a spoiled brat who cares for no one but his pocket. The people who voted for him still try to support him, despite his childishness, and stupidity.

    • I think, Trump has really been like that indeed since he was a child. And being rich, he doesn’t accept that he commits mistakes, but others committed it.

      It’s sad that America has chosen a president who only knows how to make some escapes for the failures he is now making in his governance of the country.

      But I hope, the people will unite and he will have a change of heart and hear what the majority wants to improve the country and work together for the good of the country.

      • No, I think those people who supported him are so stupid they will follow him off the cliff. I don’t see anything positive coming out of his presidency.

    • This book does sound like a great read. It also sounds like a simple read. Sometimes I avoid sci-fi books because they seem complicated. Also science fiction is not my favorite book genre. I like historical romance. 🙂

      • It is a great read and isn’t that simple. There are many relationships between the people, and events. If you start it you will finish it.

    In nations in which the population is virtually homogeneous, the way to delineate the classes is often done by what is called ‘Branding on the Tongue’.   This term refers to how one speaks.  The accent, the w […]

    • Language is for communication, not miscommunication and misunderstanding. Whatever the rules or conventions or grammatical structure, etc. may be … if you’re not communicating then you’re simply not speaking the same language. If people want to live together and get along, they better figure out how to talk to each other.

      For the record, why would any judge let the lawyer get away with asking the witness a stupid question like that? Why would any jury not look at the lawyer with a wary eye? Why wouldn’t the opposing attorney object? Simple. The case wasn’t about justice.

      • Having been in Court. The Prosecutor had sat, the Defence rose, and quietly asked the questions and got the answers. Why interfere? If you were giving evidence; “I was on Literacy Base at six o’clock’ and I stood up, “Is that post meridian or anti- meridian?” and you said ‘anti’ did I trick you when you confused anti with post? Nope.

        There was a case, a young man was charged with an offense. His alibia; “I went to the midnight show at the Palace…” the offence happened shortly before one… the very witness who put him on the scene had testified he was at the midnight show.

        I knew, the Court didn’t, that a ‘midnight show’ starts at 11:30

        • You said the accused was exonerated. Exonerated? That means nothing ever happened. Innocence proven all because a person couldn’t speak English properly? Suppose the poor woman couldn’t speak English. She spoke another language. Or worse, she was mute and couldn’t scream for help. I get very touchy about injustice. But especially about rape cases because almost always there usually are only 2 eye witnesses: the rapist and the victim.

          • The Rapist was found Not Guilty by the Jury. The address of Defence counsel focused on ‘consent’. Embrace, Stroll, Make Love.

            This is the cost of not speaking English. At no time did the complainant seem unfamiliar with the terms, changed them, asked them to be repeated. Her evidence is as I gave it. This is just one example… possibly the most obvious.

            • In America, if you can raise a reasonable doubt in a criminal case then the accused can be set free. I understand the Defense has to do their job. Their job is to defend the accused. The Defense did their job. But there were other responsible parties involved who had a job to do too! Seems like not everybody wasn’t doing their job. It happens a lot. Not just in your country.

    • People will use your weakness against you. In Ja. it has led to a lot of out sourcing. A lot of jobs have been filled by ex-pats because Jamaicans can’t speak English. I’m going to blog about it
