They beat His back and punched His face,Yet He uttered not one word.They tore out His beard and spat in His face,Yet He uttered not one word.They hated and despised Him,Yet He uttered not one word.They mocked the fact He was the Christ,They scorned His Deity,Yet He uttered not one word.They gambled for His garments,They naile...

THE FISH TANKThe fish in the tank,Swim around with ease.They seem so relaxed,Not a care to be heard.But what might they say,If you'd only listen."When is supper-time?""Why am I here?""Why is there a wall?""Keep an eye on that cat!"So we see we all have caresJust not all mouths to tell them.So be careful what you think,Of a fi...

Parenting & Pregnancy > Adolescence How to parent defiant teens: 6 of 10
Being a teen who can sometimes be defiant I feel rather highly qualified to write on this topic. Generally there are 3 reasons that teens become defiant. The first reason is that they want more freedom than the parent is willing to give. If you think that this may be the case it would be wise to re-examine your position on so... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Religion & Spirituality (Other) Is Humanism a religion?: 22 of 32
