What a cute image

That is true. Just do what you can to show and improve your gifts.

Don’t other people’s comments because they say it to disappoint you and not continue shining. That’s because the don’t want to be outshined.

But make sure that when you improve your talents and abilities don’t trample on others feet. Stay humble.

It takes a lot of self-confidence for one to nurture his talents. His family and close friends or relatives should be supportive too for him to fully develop and share those faculties.

The world is shaken with terrorism whe technology was introduced to the world. It is better to have no technology at all to avoid series of bombing incidents. Terrorists learne to manufacture bombs through internet.Yesterday might be better than today. We have different kinds of killings this time. Will there be hope for the children? Will there be safe grounds for them to play? the answer is yours should there be a ghost to drop by this blog of mine.LOLS.

I was wondering why “foolish people” in that state university would harbor those terrorists? It’s really foolishness! And terrorists or humans carrying bombs tucked in their bodies are doing the most foolish thing because it will end their life and the life of other people! I hope everything would be fine and peace will reign anywhere.

Those terrorists are really the people to run after in these different places of killings. And those ISIS together with the Maute Grp. who have reigned havoc to the city deserves to die too.

They made residents there fled their homes for fear that their lives be taken away by those terrorists.

For me, it is just right that our President declared Martial law on that place. It is to protect the people and the place to be further harmed by those terrorists.

I wish, they will all be wiped out on earth, so killings could be stopped already.

@Dina, you are right Din, they are deadly people and not worth to live on earth own by God. People in Marawi city evacuated to save their lives. We have here a very long traffic due to inspection in a detachment unit.It takes 30 minutes.I might late when class starts.They are so horrible; they are not afraid to kill even young and old.We are so afraid here.

We do not stay outside in the evening it’s scary.Let us us pray peace in Mindanao.

Everyone that feels threatened by us U.S Americans need to realize we are who we are can’t no state, county, country, or kingdom change what we are. We have rights, freedom of speech, and privileges. We take our country to heart we love the United States of American. We are of the free and opportunity. See, where am going wit these…..our ways and personality is different you can’t blame us for that nor change us for that.

@Latisha Perkins,Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings very much appreciated.We are facing with different problems this time, This insurgency problem in one big city In Ph, Marawi City, This city is zero ground for residents evacuated due to war Maute group claimed to have pledged allegiance to IS, now getting numerous, so the government tries to eliminate them, Almost 199 terrorists killed in Marawi city With those killed foreign terrorists from Indonsia, Singapire, Maaysia, so bad people.

There are indeed insensitive people. I now fully agree that there are so many of them like those people mentioned here I helped got employment, useless being. I hope they would not stumble on the rugged ground so they will surely see my face to beg for another help which i would rather say to them, enough is enough. You are not human enough to be given trust and consideration.

I think that is becoming so normal with people like we are. Just like when a person is trying to loan some money from you. YOu are the most important person to them because they want something from you. But when the time you need the money and ask for their payment, that’s the time you will become their worst enemies.

I think the best thing for us to do is just forget what we have done to them. Anyway, its our deeds that make us to become human and not them. We helped them, that’s it. They don’t remember what we did for them, its okay, at least in heaven that will be remember.

Though the Bible said that we should not expect favors or anything in return for our good deeds, we are but human not to feel so disgusted and sorry for helping them in times of need. You are right, ignore them and someday they might realise the wrong they had done to you!

The old lady is better. She deserves your help.

So you learned your lesson now in who to help.

The two ones are ingrates. They didn’t even remember to give you something when they first received their salaries from the university where you referred them.

Wow, imagine the other one is a relative and yet she didn’t invite you on her wedding day.

And the other one, did not even thank you once he was taken in.

So you see, it is better to help people of no relation at all to you especially the old woman. So nice of her to always give you a gift on your birthdays. But how did she know your birth date, by the way?

@Dina, you are right friend, but God might have used me as the instrument for these insensitive people to survive.There are really humans like them. If only someone has helped me, rest assured, that person can say he or she never regret in helping me. But these two persons, do not have intestines hahaha. They will never be rich for God won’t allow them to be this for they are like Judas.

What happens, after these experiences, is that you step back. You don’t recommend anyone, you keep your mouth shut. I have been luckier than you. When I think about helping someone they often do the most horrendous things so that I can only give thanks that I didn’t say anything.

It hurts to say gooddbye for it is also not easy to forget the past with someone leaving us. Though the left is temporal, but the feeling cannot be controlled.Humans are truly emotional.

@Rob, thanks for feeling what I feel. I know you got me. maybe you are a new writer here and feeling desperate for the site never cares at all. They are dead.They no longer reply people here, so sad, what a terrible loss of the site to good writers they never care.

@cely,

When we become members of a writing site, we are able to maintain rapport with our co-members with whom we get constant comments and interaction.

Though, it cannot be avoided when the site will be closing. But we can always tell them about another site where we can continue our friendship with them.

This happened to me when myLot told us that they won’t be a paying site anymore. We were paid still for those who have $5 and above on their banks.

So, when a co-member told me to try Bubblews, I went there and invited the other myLotters.

Thus, the fun continued at Bubblews. But it’s so sad when Bubblews closed. Although, I am already back at myLot, months after it finally closed. Others followed also.

So, it’s just like that. We can continue whatever friendship we have here by inviting them to be with us with another site where we will be earning too.

I am saddened when you said that LB will close. Was it announced officially?

@Dina, it is just a hearsay that this site is closing hehe. I think we are wrong. It seems the site owners are cleaning the site by sweeping away those plagiarized blogs. I hope that the site rises back so people come back and enjoy every discussion made. What makes writers think the site is closing because of the non-payment of the writers. I am not paid off that April redemption. Not only me, so many those who redeemed end of April. all not paid. That is the reason why writers condemed the site as to close soon. I hope not for I like Literacy base to exist for years.

It is sad to have heard many rumors that LB may soon be closing down its operation. Many of the friends and writers to have been affected due to their outstanding payment.

Folks, I felt for you too, even I have just started and have contributed my few posts here, I don’t make that much when compared to you guys out there. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt a person because he or she have indeed genuinely have spent their precious times hour and hour here trying to make an extra income.
