Shocking statement : Hindus....Indians?
LORD MACAULAY'S ADDRESS TO THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT, ON 2ND FEBRUARY 1835: " I have travelled across the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a beggar , who is a thief , such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values , people of such high caliber , that I do not think we would ever conquer this country , unless we break the very back bone of this nation , which is her spiritual and cultural heritage , and , therefore , I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system , her culture , for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own , they will lose their self-esteem , their native culture and they will become what we want them , a truly dominated nation." Is this statement the ANSWER to ALL SOCIAL EVILS IN INDIA >> 1) Caste system 2) Sati pratha 3) Financial Backwardness Is India trying to get back Her lost Glory?? Are we seeing any progress??
Why do so many people in this country bash welfare?
I live in the state of Washington. It appears from what I have learned is that a person has to be severely ill, single jobless mother taking care of kids because pops has disappeared, or elderly to get assistance. Most times benefits only last 6 months of a persons entire life. Many times people build a stigma around social services so that people would rather starve themselves and their children than go out and get on "welfare". Europe seems to be the one that gives free hand outs. They have a motto that says that a person can work if they want to. No one questions it and they have nice mass transportation systems, better educational systems, and some of those countries are ranked ahead of us on quality of life. Why are so many Americans complaining? How do you cheat the government to get lots of money? The amount of money I have seen from the lists and college classes looks like just enough money to live out on the streets with for food and clothing. Should we defund it some more?
What do people think about long-distance relationships?
It is fucking hard. This is my first-ever relationship and it’s LDR at that. I decided to go through it because somehow we just connected. We both felt it and he thought this connection is enough to sustain us at least until we get to be physically together in the future. I thought so, too.But I just broke it off with him. (It’s not really mutual but I needed to end it for my own sanity.)It’s hard when one of you doesn’t have strong communication skills and the other (me) is an overthinker and has Words of Affirmation as my love language. We have a 9-hr difference and at first, we’d both try to adjust to each other’s time zones. I would wake up in the middle of the night just to answer to his texts. He’d do the same.But once promises have been thrown around, he just became content sending a Good morning and knowing I got home safe. In contrast, I would update him wiht my day’s event and share with him him thoughts. He just reads them and that’s it and doesn’t share anything about his day. I can’t help but feel neglected. Who wouldn’t?We both TRUST each other. That’s the most important thing to have. But equally important as well is OPEN COMMUNICATION. DO NOT EVER BE LAZY TO TEXT/CALL OR ASSUME THAT YOU’RE ALWAYS ON THE SAME PAGE AS YOUR PARTNER. ALways validate, always check up on your partner, always keep them updated even with the smallest things because it’s so easy to feel lonely and think that your connection is not real at all.Remember, you’re not physically together so you have to be able to communicate everything better than what you’re normally used to with the the people around you. DON’T JUST SET YOUR SIGHTS ON THE FUTURE OF BEING PHYSICALLY TOGETHER. MAKE SURE THAT YOUR PARTNER SEES THAT EVERYTHING YOU DO NOW IS A STEP TOWARDS THAT FUTURE.
I have forwarded my complaint to KFC Taiwan, but it has fallen on deaf ears? How do I get them to listen?
Druids, I should have addressed you earlier. For the side dishes, KFCT only have salad with the usual dressings of Caesar's, Thousand Islands, and the Japanese Dressing. They also have bisquits, which must be the cousin of scones because they look almost the same, but with bisquits it's golden fried (I think.) Corn is also a mainstay in the menu. Mexican rolls have also become popular recently. For desserts, it's tarts, tarts and tarts, and they come in many flavors!! * Unfortunately with the bisquits, you can't eat more than one, because they clog in the throat with all that raspy oil. I wonder if I'm the only who ever experienced this?? As for the salads, they change it now & then, and it's mostly satisfactory, along with the steamed corn. Now the Mexican Rolls, there's nothing remarkable about them. I'm sure many people here will agree. That's about it.
Is it okay to love someone, knowing you can't be with them?
You can be told "move on" by someone you work with and it just means they are paranoid. Every time you happen to coincide, and you say hello, they can just say, "move on." It's a ridicules statement, but it's catchy.Getting obsessed with what "move on" could mean is no way of living. Obsession happens, so just be happy.You really need to just use up that love until it fades. That's where love songs and poems come from: oxytocin. Some people take months to exhaust the feelings. It takes me a few years. But, it only matters that you recognize that that love is in you no matter who you want to share your love with. You could even feel that it is God that you really love. It is alright as long as you balance out your life with respect for your health and your admiration for your good deeds.Just don't let anyone get angry at you for your feelings. Don't let anyone take advantage of you. Don't let anyone mistreat you and laugh at you. Once your love interest rejects you in anyway, simply forgive and recognize that at this time, this person is not the right person for you. You need someone to lift a finger to make you feel loved or you do not need anyone at all. Bouncing your feelings towards someone like if they are a wall can be fun sometimes, but that just means you are bored and NOT dealing with a relationship. Relationships actually require knowing what acts of love each one in the relationship likes and which they hate. You don't want a person that feels you have "power over them" and they can feel that way, as cowards do feel fear and are weak when they seek you at times to feel good about themselves. They are abusive and a bad society can call them the victim and you the aggressor.Have fun! Do other things. Love less, but with someone that makes time for you without it involving business or other social expectations. Someone will give you good times, but it's not intense until you both trust each other and have grown into one person. Until then, you are one person and that's your love. Be happy with what you've got.
