Salutation
Who I am is of no great consequence. I am a traveler of the Way. Having only seen a glimpse of the great and terrible storm that lingers around us, I can help anyone who wishes my help; all one need to do is ask. Every so often, the winds will change this message giving a new insight on the misfortune that lingers in days to come in our departure from the harbor we commence our voyage.
Some will not understand wisdom that hides in these words, for them I must say in time it all become clear. To understand these words one must have patients, experience, an open mind, and a willingness to learn. If you have these traits (in one form or another), and desire these words of wisdom, then ask away.
Love my friends, is a cherished treasure. Those who find in it purest form, will desirer nothing else. Those who do not will have an emptiness that the world can never fill.

We all will love something in our time, it is inevitable. However whether we chose to act upon that love is another, we can let it go by as it passes in the river of life, or we can pluck it out when it comes into reach.
Furthermore what we love is also is up to us. Whether we chose to love our mates/partners or what they can do for us, money, power, fame, or whatever else we worship is entirely up to us.
Since the dawn of time, weâ??ve all sought to understand it, we can never fully grasp the power of it, but here are some people who have tried help us better comprehend the Supremacy of our Heart.
"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams." Dr. Seuss
"Love me when I least deserve it, because that's when I really need it." Swedish Proverb
"Most people have a harder time letting themselves love than finding someone to love them." Bill Russell
"Since love grows within you, so beauty grows. For love is the beauty of the soul." Saint Augustine
"Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable."
Dr. Joyce Brothers

Alright, I have a question about being popular.
Well, not exactly. You see, I'm not obsessed and crazed and having my whole life devoted to becoming popular. Its just, the popular people are all so out-going and aren't afraid to do anything and they speak their minds. How do I do this? I'm so shy in real life, but I'm actually out-going online. But in real life its just like, "woah, who's that girl? She's so shy." nobody knows me.
How do I improve this? I just wish I could be out-going and be my real self without being so scared all the time.
Please help? (link)

I knew a kid who was just like that, he spent his entire most of his life trying to become “popular” and liked. He eventually became “popular”
The point I want to stress is that he discover the secret.
1) he was Persistence
2) he liked himself and didn’t care what everyone else though.
3) He was friendly to everyone (or at lest almost everyone)
4) He got involved in school actives and stuff
What helped him to overcome his fear of people; he took up writing, and later drama. He learned to express himself. And that help.
I hope this helps you. let me know if it does.
If u like more info on the subject just drop a line.
Best of luck to you.

Does anybody know atleast 5 unusual halloween customs from different countries around the world? Example countries: mexico, australia, africa... (link)
|
Customs
~ Well in ancient Egypt they put food out on the tables so the spirit of their dead loved ones can come back and feast with the living
~ In MEXICO (not Spain); they go have a meal (dinner or late night snack) in the cemetery at night. They place an item of significant value to a deceased friend or family members.
~ In Celtic times; those who were unattached with someone (not married or dating as it later developed) would attempt to take a bite out of an apple bobbing in a pail of water, or suspended on a string. The first person to do so was believed to leave that status during the next year (the Celtic’s believed the New Year begun at this that time, Nov. 1st.)
~ In England the do Soul Cakes, if you like the recipe go to .............................

~ the Celts wore costumes, typically consisting of animal heads and skins, and attempted to tell each other's fortunes.
I hope this helps/let me know if it does.

can someone please help me with some math problems because my teacher didnt finish the lesson but still gave us homework and no one in my math class is online
(-6) to the negative 1 exponet
4(10) to the negative 2 exponet
7 to the zero exponet + 6 to the negative 2 exponet
10 to the negative 2 exponet times 10 to the 5th exponet
(10x + 2y) divided by 5
(tr - r) divided by r
if you can help me with ANY of these i will be so grateful (link)

All Right I will show how to do exponents (though I will not give you the answers to your problems. an exponent is saying how many sets there are of an certain # so if you have a problem that states 10 with an exponent of 3 it would look like 10 x 10 x 10 = 100 x 10 = 1000.
these are basic problems.
1) 5 to the 2nd power (or exponents) also can look like 5^2.
• 5 ^2 = 5 x 5
• 5 x 5 = 25
• So 5^2 is equal to 25
2) -9 to the 5 power also is -9^5
• -9^5 is the same as ( = ) -9 x -9 x -9 x -9 x -9
• -9 x -9 x 9 x -9 x -9 is equal to ( = ) 89 x 89 x -9
Because 9 x 9 = equal 89 and when u have two negatives they become a positive so -9 x -9 = 89
• 89 x 89 x -9 = 7921 x -9
• 7921 x -9 come to ( = ) -71289
Here are some tips on exponents, is your base number (the big one) is negative and the exponent is an even number then your final answer will be a positive. If your base number is negative and the exponent is an odd, then your final answers will be a negative
Sorry I can’t remember how to do negative exponents. Try looking in your math text book they may be able to offer some help.
For division
It works best if you lay it out right.
For an example; Divide [4a] and [8b] with 2b
You should first lay it out right. It should look like this.
now your 1st step is to remove all alike variables from the problem
4a + 8b
_______
2b
So it should look like this 4a + 8
_______
2
because 8 and 2 both had the same variable (b)
Now you can ignore the last variable for right now, and just divide.
It should now look like this (2a + 4) which is just 2a + 4 ______
And that is your final answer. 1
Here is a similar one with no numbers but just variables; don’t worry it is easier than it looks.
(ab – dc)
_____________
bce now cancel out all able variables, (u can tell if it able of not if they in both the top and bottom)
so it will look like (a – d)
______
e
I hope this helps you out (let me know if it did) if you have any more questions just drop a line. I’ll try to answer the best I can.
Best of luck

i will be a new freshman in High school, will i get picked on like in Mean Girl movie?
well here are reason why i might (and i am already being picked on in my bus because they are racist) but i am pretty decent in friends and cliques... i dont get picked on by popular kids
1. i am Asian
so in bus there is my neighborhood and other neighborhood where all black people lives and few of them pick on me for being asian.
2. i am not skinny, i am not obese because when people guess my weight, they guess less then 20 pounds then i actually weigh, but i can lose lot more pounds.
3. i have this enemy who was my ex best friend.
so please help how to avoid those mean racist people in my bus and my enemy... and how to get a boy friend ! =) (sorry about the last one but i am desperate) (link)

First of all Mean Girls exaggerate High school; sure people get picked on in High School but there is very little one can do about racist and mean people.
However I do have a few tips that might help!
(1) First of all know you can’t change someone else’s view, we all are own governors.
Know this will help you in the next few steps
(2) If someone is picking on you for whatever the reason, they in tells they insecure of themselves. Why does this mater you may ask, well KNOWING THAT and the REASON for picking on someone, one can deduce that they only do it too boost themselves. So by simple deduction all you have to do remove the thing they want most out of you (your pain). This in tells that you pay no attention to them or their antic. How you may ask; that is something you must find on your own. It will not be easy but it will be worth it!
(3) Believe that you are great, that you are special. This will boost your self esteem and people will notice and like being around you if you have high self esteem.
(4) Be your self, don’t follow the “In Crowd” be you own self.
(5) Have fun and enjoy these moments. They are numbered and once there gone there is no returning.
There are more things I could tell you but it is not my place to. I hope this works out for you. And don’t worry about the bf. The time will come for you to have one when you are ready, don’t rush you childhood away for the idea of Love. Best wishes
