Keezoy,
There is one thing l always feel bad about and that is, l didn’t say, ‘Happy Birthday’ to you on your birthday thread. It wasn’t because l didn’t want to, it was because l hadn’t logged in during that time. By the time, l was back posting your birthday thread was down the page and far away.
When you hear of so many stabbings, food shortages, dramatic climate change & enormous numbers of illegal immigrants ( which are often in the news), people always want to hear ideas on how it can be stopped & many of us believe that it may be too late
. It may be gloomy but wouldn't we all appear to be stupid if we chose to ignore the possibilities until they happen, instead of discussing options on how to maybe reduce them?
We are all going to die one day, but should that stop us trying to prevent it happening too soon, by discussing ideas that may help?

Re: Opininons
It’s not always possible to be optimistic ,happy and positive .The last thing that someone wants if they are not feeling the above is to be made to feel bad about it .
It’s only by highlighting things are wrong ie animal cruelty that these things can be changed .
Differing opinions lead to discussion if we all agreed it would be a pretty boring forum .

Re: Opininons
I see Keezoy has mentioned friends list so I have just looked at mine .I can’t to be honest remember how I acquired so many friends probably because I didn’t wish to seem unfriendly some don’t even post here any more
But the truth is I know who are my friends on here without needing a list .

Re: Opininons
For many years we lived with the prediction that the Russians were going to start a nuclear war and we were all going to die. People even started preparing for this, stockpiling tins of food, converting cloakrooms or even building bunkers in their gardens.I used to really worry about this, l mean when you are told things like that, you believe it’s going to happen...but it never did.
People assume it’s all going to happen, even convince themselves it’s going to happen. No one can see into the future and by predicting heresy doom and gloom, it’s scaremongering.
I learned years ago, never to worry about things, until they happen.
