lifeisadream: It had taken me sometime to understand that life is not white and black Jac but I would not want to have something that I have not worked for.
For the attempt of kidney donation of yours I hope everything works well for the other person.
Yes, he got a cadaverous donation and has a new lease of life.
Thank you for asking.
If life is not black and white, perhaps 'working for something' does not have to be a direct exchange of 'value' between two parties? The recipient of a cadaverous organ has done nothing (hopefully!) to receive the gift directly from the donor, just as many people may give, or receive from the world, society, or their community in all manner of direct, or indirect exchanges.
Bear in mind, some people may receive in excess of their needs for a few hours business dealings a week, whilst many do not receive enough to meet their needs for 60 hours a week clearing up other people's excrement.

BB_snickers: ... I think wisdom can be genderless, though many mistake wisdom for knowledge.
Wisdom is genderless BB.
BB_snickers: ..Intelligent submissives are a breed above and that really has nothing to do with gender. it has to do with wisdom, genetics, traits, and self awareness within a relationship, among other things.
If intelligent submissiveness is a bredd above, does it include men, women, gays,..???
BB_snickers: ...So, I think 'if' I were a woman, knowing what I know, then wisdom would have me carrying the banner, leading the parade to raise awareness. If you let me?

People rich or poor they are people, they do have feelings, they both struggle in one way or another.

Taking part to one side is to ignore the other. And why is not the other way around?
If we exchange the people in the groups? they will continue being people.

HiJacking my own thread
Many years ago we used to live in a rural town because it was convenient for our children; there they did attend a private Catholic school. In that school children from families that were wealthy, middle class and poor they did mix and got along just as any other population of children.
The children from poor families could attend that school on scholarships because it is required by law that private schools must offer scholarships to the 10 % of its students.
A particular wealthy family “X” had its children attending that private Catholic school, they were farmers and also did the agricultural commodities exchange on a local, regional and national level.
While living in that rural town I was working in Agricultural Research on one side and I did start a small adventure –with a few partners- for growing peaches on a commercial way. In doing so, a few times a week I had to get some workers and take them to the orchard before going to my research work at 8 am. Around 6 am I would be at the gas station and so were the children (middle school age) of that particular wealthy family before they went to school.
While my children were sleeping, the children of this wealthy family had to work – getting the diesel for the tractors in some barrels on their trucks- and going to one or two of their ranches before going to school (middle school). Yes, they had already a driver’s license in which it required to have their parents’ permission for driving.
After some years……
One of the children of the wealthy family got kidnapped. The family paid the money and they got back their son.
Later on…. Two of the children of that particular wealthy family got kidnapped Again, the family paid the money -once more big money-.
They got their children back....................but in bags.
lifeisadream: Can a Man/Woman love more than one person? With the love than involves passion and love making!Any comments are welcome and please feel free to reply to any comment.
Personally, it's never happened to me thank goodness! I do believe it is possible.
Besides, thats subjective. I love so many people in so many different ways. My kids for example. I believe soul-mates come in many forms and we certainly encounter more than one. I also think people come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime and there are lessons to each. Its important to be open to it because love requires courage.
At the end of our lives, its the love we have created that matters most.

Yes I think it's possible for some people. We have to accept that there are no "norms" in relationships nowadays, however much the loving male and female union who go on to produce children has been drummed into us as the "ideal" relationship.

BB_snickers: Could you love two drummers?
Hmmmmm interesting but on second thoughts no, too similar, could be boring, perhaps a drummer and a guitarist? I'm trying to think harmonious thoughts.
