DON'T CRY FOR ME ARGENTINA
written by: debbifrench
35

In the early 20th century, Argentina was one of the richest countries in the world. While Great Britain's maritime power and its far-flung empire had propelled it to a dominant position among the world's industrialized nations, only the United States challenged Argentina for the position of the world's second-most powerful economy. It was blessed with abundant agriculture, vast swaths of rich...

So it has been a long day, I have requested a particular nurse not be assigned to Micahel any further, her lack of care and her rudeness is just too much for me right now. This then was followed by an email from the clinical director saying the doctor needs to talk to me, about dialysis, I called questioning, because I was told his kidneys were functioning well.... so then the CEO of the...

Online dating is the most.. fascinating thing I've seen in a while. I am giddy because its truly an adventure! Oh my goodness.. this is nuts *laughs* Look at this response to my profile: Hey, I'm sure you have been wondering where I have been all your life. Sorry I got held up rescuing damsels in distress, slaying dragons, freeing captured unicorns and then of course I got turned into a frog...

Why Is The Left So Condescending?
written by: Notliberal
32  Michigan

Obama and the Democrats have responded to recent defeats by suggesting that the American people simply don't understand the proposals being offered by the Democrats. Around here on OD, the Obamacare defeat has been brushed off as simply a case of the public not understanding what's really in the bill coupled with accusations that conservatives are lying to and misleading the public. It can't be...

Is Sexuality Fluid?
written by: Marshy83
26  Australia

My sexuality came about via the way I imagine most young guy's sexuality does. An explosive wet dream. I remember one morning having the most vivid, sexual, phantasmagorias imaginable before waking up to propulsive wet man cream. It didn't take long to work out that I didn't need a dream to activate this sweet release and was soon manually engaging in this foray as frequently as circumstances...

Evil Effects of Unbelief
written by: The Prophet

“Why are ye so fearful, and how is it that ye have no faith?” Mark 4:40. ____________________________________ The less faith, still the more fear. Fear is generated by unbelief, and unbelief strengthened by fear. As in nature there is an observable circular generation, vapors beget showers, and showers new vapors, so it is in things moral, and therefore all the skill in the...

hate in my heart
written by: NylahKay
27  Minnesota

I need help. I need to figure out how to stop hating Lyndsey so much. My hatred towards her consumes me sometimes. The reason I am having a hard time letting go of the hatred though, is because I know it is completely justified. I know that the moment she would decide to grow up and start putting Isaiah's best interests in front of her own selfish agendas, i would be able to...

We all live under the same blanket.
written by: Gooner

Today, I have been feeling pretty sorry for myself and I was going to write an entry based around my loneliness and the fact that I probably have more years behind me than I do before me but that all changed. I was watching birds in my garden, bread had been thrown out onto the small lawn and the birds came to feed. It suddenly struck me, as animals, we are all the same....

still don't know what love is.
written by: sasha clare

i stumble (tumble headlong) onto a picture i took of you and the hurt washes over me (like the levees in louisiana) you look so unfamiliar to me, the face i could never forget your smile and eyes (and those long eyelashes which i kissed so many times) like your voice the last time you called seems so far away, like a person i don't know i can remember how you smell i remember how your lips...
