Every person with the capacity to consider death will do so at some point. It is inevitable, but no one can provide authoritative comment on what the experience is like. The great mystery.

Living as though nothing follows this life should compel each of us to cherish every healthy breath we take, to persistently seek … Read more

It's a bit unusual but as long as you are both over 18 there's no problem.

One thing that it can sometimes do is either teach kids to be Independent and responsible (which can sometimes include being Industrious and taking Initiative and being Productive and hopefully sometimes even Creative) and to take pretty good care of their things when they are the sole owner (which, unfortunately, can also make them more … Read more

As in done on TV, no, they don't work that way. If you want to practice magik (as opposed to magic), I suggest you research paganism.

My mother is an only child. She never really understood that no matter how much my brothers and I would fight with each other we are alway there for each other. Or that we help one another without question.

At one point both of my brothers were asking me to help out A LOT. If … Read more

I'm also an only child, so I'll just throw in a few characteristics I think are related to that:

Being "alone" is the state with which I am most familiar and therefore very comfortable with, and I have no trouble entertaining myself when necessary. I enjoy being with people, but I usually don't seek out groups.

I … Read more

My goddaughter is an only child. Her mother would send her over all the time so she could experience siblings. We had a conversation in regards to this and we found that only children have a challenge with patience.

My best friend ( her mother) had only one child to cater to. So every wish was … Read more

I always thought over the years that "only" kids get kind of lonely. At least some have told me that over the years. I had an older brother and sister and it was fun around the holidays being with them. I think the only affects might be that "only" children tend to be loners as … Read more

I took just a few minutes to make my profile. I change my avatar frequently though....and of course I change it accordingly for any holiday

For here ? I made mine a long time ago and change the avatar for certain Holidays and my age when it changes but I hate doing that. Otherwise, I'm happy with it as it is. Didn't take but about 5 minutes.

Let me ask you a question: Why should it be illegal?

My guess (and feel free to correct me if I am wrong) is that you will say that you disagree with it, believe it to be murder or perhaps think it is morally wrong. But any one of these things is an opinion.

I'm not going … Read more

Sorry if this offends anyone, that's definitely not my intention... But personally, I believe religion has always been used as a political tool to divide and manipulate large groups of people.

Historically speaking, there were plenty of theological beliefs milling around at the time of Jesus - but the people controlling the Roman Empire made a … Read more

Personally, I find horror the toughest genre to write in.

All fiction relies on the reader "suspending their disbelief" and allowing themselves to imagine the story in their head as if it were real.

Because a genre like horror often involves unfamiliar situations and subject matter like the paranormal, it is sometimes difficult for a reader … Read more

As others have mentioned, motivation is the key.

There were some nights when my daughter was still a baby where I'd get less than 3 hours sleep, and still have to wake up early for work.

Coffee helps, but you really need to have a good reason to put yourself through such discomfort.

As for routines that might … Read more

It's a tough one. Whenever you put your work online, there's always a danger that it'll be used in ways you haven't intended. Especially true with photography...

Perhaps try to make sure that the really valuable stuff is difficult to copy (by using screenshots or images of your work, rather than the text).

But in most things … Read more

There are a few reasons why sites don't show up on Google

1. Search Engine Optimization - (meta tags, page titles, page descriptions,  headers and a sitemap are a few examples of SEO)

2. SSL certificates - SSL apply a layer of encrypted security to protect information that travels from the users PC and the website … Read more

I've never really broken the rules (then again, I don't really have any) so I don't get punished because the only ''rule-breaking'' I do is minor things like forgetting to unload the dishwasher.
