That's fantastic, and written at the age of 11! Thanks for sharing.

Advices should be given in positive and constructive structure, not in judgmental haste. Lily and SDM are showing great examples - bravo!

Lily speaks with much maturity and wisdom - great advices.

I have not seen many women with exposed tattoos; it's a shame. The few I have seen were quite beautiful!

I think tattoos is a beautiful art form - definitely sexy. It speaks of a person's passionate feeling towards the inked subject. It would be fascinating to hear the stories behind the images.

I believe the "New Mutual Match" notice remains on for a predetermined number of days, after which if there are no new matches, then the notice disappears. Hope it answers your question.

Everyone likes their place of comfort. Change brings a sense of uncertainty, and questions people's long-held beliefs. Instead of arguing your points, or forcing people to change, perhaps, demonstrating your points and allowing them to evaluate and adopt what is applicable to them. We have to also respect people's differences, because they hold on to some of what they have been believing in all their lives. Of course, we are talking about people who do not see change is an exciting opportunity.

Hi Shutterbug-

A good sense of humor, and a great screen name!

This is the only site I have signed up, so cannot speak truly regarding those "official" dating sites. As a full-time working professional and weekend athlete, it is not easy meeting people, unless I am willing to go to bars, nightclubs or parties, which are not my places of interest. I thought of this site as an avenue of meeting people, whether it leads to something deeper or not.

Hello and welcome! Hope you had a great day. Have a wonderful time meeting new friends.

Hi coco-

I hope you are having a good break, and your work will be over soon.

If 5'-7" is short, then I am definitely waaaay below the radar!

Hi Princess-

I am sorry you are away from your family. I am too. Time like this allows us to understand the depth of our love for our family.

Best of luck on your job interview! Knock them dead!

Serendipity! Yes, you are destined to read this book.



Oh, good morning Miss Stylish! Hope you are having warmer weather today on the other side of the pond.

Ah, are you a fan of Cornelia Funke? Thanks for sharing. I would like to check out Inkheart.

Hello Maestra,
