    Adaydreambeliever replied to Greenland sez they are open for business but not for sale. Did chump check out Iceland? Why not buy that instead?:
    Doesn't that just speak of the level of Trump's ignorance and arrogance that he thinks everything can be manipulated or bought with money. Not everywhere worships money

    Indeed, those who have nothing to fear from the truth do not fear it.

    I couldn't possibly compete with Bookworm - I could try but it would take too much time and effort and they've already made that effort so why duplicate.. But I can say that I was *green* way back when it wasn't fashionable, back in the early 80s.

I used to make my own cleaning products, I composted, I recycled, I repaired, reduced, I made homemade garden fertilisers, I grew organic..  Ok so not *the* first or even that early - but I consider it relative :P

Cancer is truly evil. My nan, (people in the UK often call their grandmother nan, nanny, gran etc.. ) was a real character - she was a cockney, from London. She'd talk openly about sex and stuff and she hated being alone.. and remarried at the age of 64... Really an inspiration.

I don't want to,  but I wonder where I went wrong..   I hope the feeling is only temporary.. I hope so for you too. Best really not to compare ourselves to others as we have had different circumstances, different problems, limitations, restrictions.. so in all we have probably done the best we could at any given time.

    Adaydreambeliever replied to How likely do you think it is that someone can be right about some things but entirely, shockingly wrong about other things? :
    Well, when you put it that way... I guess anything is possible. Though, I guess I was thinking more of things that have now been proven as opposed to some which have been disproven.

I enjoyed reading it. More importantly I had been wondering if I were silly to value some of the things he said, if some other parts were way off, (you touched on some of them nicely in your reply) - I now feel much better and see it's entirely possible to accept some but not all - indeed perhaps it's wise to take the attitude that some will be right and some wrong. More usual than not.

    Utterly vile and dishonest behaviour! This is what you get when the prez himself is a dishonest liar.. it promotes dishonesty..

    Adaydreambeliever replied to The only OBESE candidate running for prez is chump. How important is being in shape mentally and physically to you vis a vis your prez?:
    Never mind his body shape, the man is ugly. Ugly in looks, thought and deed. No charm whatsoever! I think charm if genuine along with honesty and caring is essential.. Trump lacks any of these

I was thinking about my life.. people I've known.. things that happened.. and I got to wondering... what if someone hit and beat up their kids, allowed them to be abused... might they still be a nice person? What separates them from someone else who encouraged or drove them to do that.. is one a victim, are they both perhaps victims themselves?   I suppose I wonder too... we are none of us perfect; we've all done things that others haven't.. like I think swinging and open relationships are perfectly ok for some people; and there's some research that suggests marriages in that set up are often stronger as there's greater communication and flexibility.. someone called me disgusting for saying that.. so we don't all think the same way.. what's right, what's wrong, what's good and what's bad...     less

I will say, that the thing is.. so many people can and do and have climbed Everest.. many have died.. I don't get it myself but there seems to be a compulsion to climb it.. I would think that either they didn't know and couldn't have known.. or? But I am just wondering... perhaps this death toll couldn't have been accounted for?

I was so disgusted I told him to go.... erm play with himself... He wasn't pleased and unfriended ME.. He returned and we did work through it.. but it's hard to see him in the same light after that.

I do agree people seem more cruel now, more callous and I do see this every day..Little things like, when driving, there are rules and etiquette such as when it's your right of way, the other person waits.. people seem not to be doing that anymore and I think this all ties into a kind of selfishness and lack of compassion that allows people to treat others as if they don't matter.. only what they want matters.. There's some support for this argument as they are finding that among the young they are considering actually teaching them compassion and empathy as some seem to be growing up without these qualities    less
