zman I went looking for it...the title but the only religious one I could find is now posted on the blogs...I have to get ready for work so perhaps I can look for it later!!
lind Perhaps women are more careful in their decision making and look at others and not just the needs of herself...a good attribute to have when leading a nation...
lind I have no preference on gender when it comes to politics but I would like women to be more involved...perhaps others feel the same...considering some countries don't allow women's input or allow them to think...if the Western countries are open to this idea perhaps this could lead others to show more kindness towards women in general...meaning that women are persons, can drive and can have an opinion that matters...the list goes on...I believe that with exposure to our views will lead to some kind of understanding...so a female leader would help greatly in this area...tolerance I mean...
obs I think it is good to be opinionated but why drag a woman's body part in this discussion?...there are few women in the political field in comparison to men...why else is it a big deal for most citizens when people of colour or women get elected in a position of power...
teena If it was a gesture of securing/protecting women from men...why the prison sentence...or for that matter why not ban men from such game events?...excuses and more lies...
luke The death penalty may not eradicate change in this current problem...they (drug lords)find ways to alter outcomes...governments are certainly not trustworthy...or for that matter law officers...it comes down to greed...I know you have shared your stories about this problem like where you live...but perhaps the lack of opportunity is the real demon in regards to people opting for this lifestyle?...one should question the inequity of society regarding wealth and education and prosperity...sometimes poverty breeds this way of being...
teena If this is a natural phenomenon then so be it...Vancouver is usually wet, cold and dark even during the day time...no BFD...not to mention the Northern countries such as Norway that experience darkness...it is just their reality...
lind I would hope women will be in power one day...putting more emphasis on humanity and environmental concerns and rid that male sense of entitlement that is plaguing the world...whether it be greed or the need to dominate...it is about time women had the power to shape/reflect our desire for a more kinder environment!!
king Don't be foolish...wanting better for yourself should not be confused with people wanting material gains...not like people in poorer countries are wanting Rolexes or expensive cars...they want to have the basics in life...very different...
Sometimes love is felt when you are not expecting it...so Mimi...it can still happen for you!!...like I said you have to be open to it...deleting or blocking is not helping your cause...why not hang out with your girlfriends and try to be more social?...just a thought!!
viv A friend told me a good one...she told me her boyfriend said that God wanted me to break up with you...can you believe that!!...who could argue that one?...lol...
free I have travelled to other countries and seen extreme poverty...you cannot compare the poor in Canada to those in countries such as Cambodia...so as far as gold diggers go...it seems to be a term used for people in the Western countries... not to be confused with the hope of the poor wanting a roof over their heads and enough to eat...or getting medical care for that matter...
mimi Try finding a new crocodile where you have interests...there is a lot of men out there!!...do you know any other singles in your area that are keen to hang out and just have fun?...be open to it and it will come...
cat Had a similar incident...so from that resulted in me not drinking and driving at all...lucky once but not foolish enough to believe it could happen again!!...have a great weekend!!
cat There are so many cheap people willing to allow you to waste your time trying to collect the debt...money up front maybe the only way to deal with these individuals...your time and energy is worth something...happy fishing cat and enjoy your summer!!
mimi Very nice tribute to your grandparents!!...I really don't know my relatives on my dad's side of the family...most are still in Norway...hopefully I will travel to Europe and get to know them...I never met my grandparents from Norway, they are dead now...but glad you had such a close relationship with yours!!
sista I am not following any institutionalized religion and I cannot say I am Christian...so that being said spiritual is another way of describing my personal philosophy... I really don't understand others who cannot wrap heir head around alternative ways of being...not up for debate...I respect your beliefs, so please respect others' spirituality!!...
ian I don't know what is going on but sometimes you need to take a break...some of your posts are a bit strange...hope you will sort it out and get well...all the best!!
ek Well said!! teena It is not fair that women are not in control...men feel the need to control women based on fear...so it isn't surprising that women are not involved in politics as much as men are... Hilary Clinton will probably try to get elected leader of the Democrat party coming up soon...so there is still hope for women to be involved in politics and not be in the shadows sort to speak...change in behaviours takes time...progress is happening!!
ken You are correct...a variety of food is what makes us healthy...anything in moderation I think will keep people from becoming obese...that and exercise...
RE: Leaving for some time!
zeuGood luck in your move...hope it is a smooth transition...and have a great weekend...see you soon!!
