Hey everyone. CC has been a wonderful place to get to know some of you. I have met a few people from here and I have formed friendships and bonds that are so lovely. However, the percentage of people who I count in such manner is definitely tiny compared to the entire population on CC and I...

A question- Is remembering what someone said/did a sign of unforgiveness? To lay out the context a bit better, I want to provide an anecdote of my experience on CC. CC is always an interesting place - many of us come from all different backgrounds and its diversity is its strong point...

Quick Drive By - Guys. I bought fall riding boots. I don't know if that was a good bet or not. Do you think it would be useful in winter (functional or fashionable)? Let me know in case I should return it. I have no idea how to dress for the climate here (which is cold). I end up looking at...

This was brunch today. Cup Ramen. I added the eggs in to make it more “authentic”. This is now on my list of things to do. Travel east. I haven’t seen everything in the west but it would be an interesting break to go east. I want to learn a new language. I want to visit Hong Kong. But then...

The Bible mentions many times that long life as a blessing. [Ephesians 6:1-3, Proverbs 3:16] Seeing people suffer in their old age and lose their health and prime abilities makes me wonder if a prolonged stay on earth is really a blessing. I feel so much for older people, especially those...

Hey everyone, This is a thread directed towards singles. However if you are married and have experienced going through the decision making processes of living alone, I do welcome your input. So without going into too many details - I am relocating to a place where I do not know anyone. Also...

After baking the red velvet cake it just had to be this. It was a Saturday morning and it was just perfect for a weekend breakfast. It tastes so good ... ^_^ I totally recommend this if you're feeling down. Red Velvet Pancakes with Honey Walnut Sauce What it looks on the inside...

Dear all, This is a venting thread. I feel like I must get this out somewhere and what better place to do it than with Christians. Please keep in mind that I am not American so I am for the most part unaware of the various tropes in American culture. I want to start out by stating that...
