@Matt85 I don't like spiders at all because they keep spinning webs everywhere. I have to clean every spot in my house on a weekly basis. If there webs are undisturbed, dead insects appear in their webs. I can't imagine how females have time to be in politics and social activism. Who is doing their house cleaning?

@JimboSaturn So, you are neither left or right and treading the Noble Eight Fold middle path.

@sree251 I don't think the Noble Eight Fold path is very religious really , more philosophical. Some see Buddhism more as a philosophy than religion. I don't care where I tread on the path.

@JimboSaturn The western mind sees Buddhism as a philosophy stripped of it spiritual core. The eastern mind, the wellspring of Buddhism, view the atheist as a heartless beast.

@SW-User Wow, lost everyone close to you? Sounds dire. I lost everyone close to me also by walking out on all of them. There was no animosity involved. I just up and left because it was too difficult to explain. No one would do this. I hope you didn't lose your loved ones through a misfortune like the Maui fire.

@sree251 my parents passed away for health reasons, others killed and the rest I walked away from because they chose their disgusting secrets over helping me when I really needed them. I think it's okay to walk away. We don't have to be who they want us to be.

@SW-User No loss here. You don't need people who don't give a damn about you. It's hard to give up people who do. This is a heartless world. It's hard to be alone. I come here to find company, not love. I can never engage most people in conversation beyond cyberspace other than bartenders and folks who have to be nice because I am a customer. Here, I can enjoy talking to people who get mad with me.

@Renkon Is there any other kind?

@sree251 Yes they do. Romantic, motherly, compassionate, Devine… they are all different, some more than the other.

@Renkon If love can be defined by you, then it isn't love.

@jshm2 Are you referring to empathy? This is the bedrock of American foreign policy.

@Birdman666 nvm

@crownedwithlaurel97 I'll drag you away from this bs by your hair
