Ruth Garcia Enocmpassing Ennui

I don't know but there are times when life bcomes utterly boring. I'm still in college and I'm luck enough to feel boredom. Even writing term papers and solving math home works seem boring to me. Could it be because I'm doing the same things over and over again? Maybe. Sometimes I crave for diversion, for things that will make me forget boredom, that could encompass this ennui... you know, some… Continue

If anyone out there needs a pen pal please answer and lets start communicating. I am seeing a psychologist and she has encouraged me to do this. Marty Schwartz Continue

Betty Seidner Wishing Peace in Israel and the world.

How can anyone think of dividing Jerusalem-- We cannot hope to make peace with a people who are out to destroy us. It seems that anytime people want to help the so called Palestinians it is because they fear retaliation from the terrorists groups, we only become weaker by appeasement to terrorist. Only showing strength and protecting and keeping our land will save us. The Land of Israel is the Jewish Holy Land. Peace will be throughout the world when we bring a true peace to Israel and be able t… Continue
