    I am so in favor of this suggestion. How I wish to have that edit button so we can easily edit our article if it needed too. Sometimes we need to replenish also the articles we have written but when it is already in the ‘waiting approval’ we cannot edit them. I guess, the admin may consider this suggestion.

    • Good article! I hace to say we hace at hime 2 dogs, 1 cat and 2 nice fishes… And that’s all! I mean, no goats or Guinea pigs!

    • I think I disregard th3 fa t that some people can keep certain animals as pets in their homes. Snakes for example why would someone keep something so harmful in their homes? What does a snake do for you other than scare you away? A gecko what good is it for surely. At least I know if I ha e a car that can chase away days and some creepy crawling things. And keep your house away from rodents that can cause problems or disease at some point. Having a dog is a good idea if will keep intruders out of your home that’s for a good course unlike other animals. I have grown up with dogs in our home so I love dogs and that can be very friendly as well. Having a dog can also create company just playing around with it is just a good feeling

    • He is as major an effect on our society as Shakespeare was on his.

    • That is true, he is a major influenced in the 1960’s and 1970’s. His songs is combination of the mastery of songwriting and music. No question about his prize because he really deserves it. Literature is not only for novels and stories and poems, its only the combination of them.

    That photo you put it, its pinakbet, isn’t it? Anyway, I love chicken curry and fried chicken and probably I will name them because its the popular version of our recipe. But more than that I also love our local version which we call “pinikpikan”. It is a soup based chicken cut into tiny pieces including the internals and saute with fish sauce.

    It’s not that I don’t like local cuisine because I have had much of it in our region. So when I have choices, let me pick the western cuisine for me to have a taste of their good food, great taste and the yumminess in every bite that I can have. So I guess, the answer is clear, YES.

    @EvilElf  I understand your point of view. I was asking hoping to get thoughts and opinions from those whom work on the site. I have already taken way too many chances with sites that I have never heard of or start up sites to get burned in the end. I loose all my time and writings and get nothing. Time is money for me.

    Tanikka Paulk wrote a new post, Determination is the way 8 years, 1 month ago

    Whatever we choose to do in life. We should put passion in it. Be driven and full of “determination.” The road isn’t easy to travel. The journey may seem long but all the trials are and will be worth it. The […]

    • Yes a strong willed person may perform miracles on earth. Intention is the root of success on earth in any field. JH Sayyar

    • Determination is the key to success in every walk of life …study, business, travel, journey, education, literature…in any field of life determination helps men and women to achieve the goal and destination in real life.

      Determination is important. Nothing in life is easy. If you give up, you won’t accomplish much. Sometimes, you should not be so determined that you lose sight of common sense. Just because something doesn’t come easy and we don’t want to give up doesn’t mean we should keep pushing. Sometimes we should give up because things are just not meant to be.

      From my point of reference, determination is important because it helps to give focus to consciousness. Individuals with determination help to better understand what has to be done. In a way, determination helps to address Tolstoy’s dilemma regarding what it means to be human. Tolstoy argued that all endeavors must seek to answer two fundamental questions:

      Who we are and what shall we do. These two questions are answered by the presence of determination in our lives because it helps to give structure and purpose to what we do and how we shall live. In this light, I would say that determination is highly significant to our lives.

    Tanikka Paulk wrote a new post, Learning to Compromise Produces Better Results 8 years, 1 month ago

    Sometimes we become so accustom to doing things a certain way. For some it’s quite difficult to change the way things are done. Takes practice. More like changing the way we think. In order to find not only […]

    • I agree completely with what you have said here, I especially like the part about communicating. If you don’t communicate then it makes it almost impossible to get anything done, let alone done right. As far as change goes, one of the only constant things IS change, whether or not we want things to change, they always do, so we might as well deal with that fact.

      Compromise is such a good thing to be willing to do. Some people want things their way or ELSE, but life as a whole does not work that way.

      Even if you are the boss of a large corporation, you have to learn how to compromise to meet the needs of your many employees. There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to dealing with people.

      Some people think that agreeing to compromise means that they “lost” in some type of way, when in actuality compromising (in certain situations) is a way for everyone to win.

    • You say right that learning to compromise produce better results in practical field because real learning teaches how to compromise any situation.

      Open, honest communication should be part of every healthy relationship. Use the guidelines below to open up the channels of communication between you and your partner. If you’re in an unhealthy or abusive relationship, be careful using these tips. You know your relationship best. If any of these tips would put you in danger, don’t try them.

      If something is bothering you and you would like to have a conversation about it, it can be helpful to find the right time to talk. Try to find a time when both you and your partner are calm and not distracted, stressed or in a rush. You might even consider scheduling a time to talk if one or both of you is really busy!

      Even when we mean well, we can sometimes come across as harsh because of our word choice. Using “you” can sound like you’re attacking, which will make your partner defensive and less receptive to your message. Instead, try using “I” or “we.” For example, say “I feel like we haven’t been as close lately” instead of “You have been distant with me.”
