Be extremely careful when making new laws, especially laws with penalties for minor issues that can be addressed by preexisting laws.

There was a news article I happened to be referred to that I found rather alarming. The concept makes sense but the way they are going about it is extremely alarming. The article is:- https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2023/03/18/act-for-the-elderly-now Why do I say that this article is alarming when it seems to be a nice and wholesome article about…

The foolishness of humans when they seek what they desire.

I will make this short and simple. I have always wondered why humans, both men and women, are so foolish when seeking what they desire. First they desperately seek what they want. That is fine. Then when they find what they want, they desperately try to obtain it. It doesn’t matter if it’s an object…

What things a child will and will not appreciate (from my experience growing up).

Children no matter what their age may be, can usually think for themselves. This is something that a lot of adults, especially parents, do not seem to understand.

Why all marriages should be allowed, whether between family or strangers.
