The decisions everyone must make about money will lead to a life of either prosperity or perpetual debt. But what are the rules? Most of us have never had a course on Money 101 and so we learn by trial and error.

This group is intended to discuss, and debate some of the medicinal reasons that MEDICINAL CANNABIS should be considered in the state of VIRGINIA. This group does not encorage illegal activities and there will be no illegal drugs or narcotics at the events, and meetings. This is just a group to bring fellow Cannabis activists together to discuss the potential uses that could benefit the medical community. My opinion on cannabis is that it can be helpful in the correct setting. Doctors prescribe …

This group is for people interested in deeper connections with the world, with each other, and with themselves.  It is a sharing and discussion group.  Right now, I plan to show a video and have an open discussion afterwards.  I'm sure other ideas will develop. Still waters run deep.  A shallow river babbles continuously, creating sounds that gently lull us to sleep.  A deep river has a surface that appears to be still, yet has currents far beneath - not easily seen, and yet powerful. Daring to …

Why “somewhat” difficult? Partly it’s about humility: Not everyone will agree about what qualifies a book as “difficult,” and occasionally we’ll read something that you don’t struggle with at all. But no matter what your opinion of, oh just for example let’s say Slaughterhouse Five, most people can agree that it at least requires more concentration, more analysis and more reflection than The Notebook (nothing against The Notebook if that’s your thing). Maybe Vonnegut -- or Great Expectations, o …

This is a Bangladeshi singles club. Being single is not anything to be ashamed about in our age!
