You should be able to live for yourself and be happy because in the end your life is yours and what you end up having in it is your decision not anyone else's. The United States is the greatest country in the world despite some of the problems we have had in the past. What happens to your children is only your business unless the child is in immediate danger and because you are an unstable parent. In my own life I was raised that there is a God and that he cares for everyone not only me. Everyone should haver the opportunity to learn English but not everyone nessecarly needs to know English. Men should be able to show weakness they are humans as well as anyone else in this world. Vanilla is equal to chocolate ice cream in my opinion.

1.You should live for yourself. But to fully live only for yourself is selfish. A full and complete life is one that gives for the sake of giving. Love for the sake of love. Make decisions that will benefit you but never live only for you. To find that balance is hard and for most, takes a lot of our lives. But to find it, is to find peace and balance.

I think we should live for myself, because if we couldn't make myself stronger and better how we can live for others. People always talk about US is the greatest country. I agree with that., they have some great technique. If children are only my business, I don't what to do. Maybe I will ask a babysitter to take care of them. I don't want to say there is no god, no one knows there is one or not. I don't think everyone should speak English, each country has their different culture . But I think everyone should learn English. Men don't show weakness out of people but his true friend. I like vanilla and chocolate both. :)

You should live for both your self and others i think there has to be a balance like caring for the people who care about you and at the same time caring for what you need because giving will make you forget about you.the usa might be the greatest country but usa is made of other countries if all of the other countries decided to leave the alliance with usa there won't be nothing left for usa.

You should live for others because not everything is about you. The United States is not the greatest country because we have many flaws. No one should judge your child or your parenting skills. God does exist because who made earth who's son was sacrificed for us. Everyone should speak English because it is a very common language in America and in Great Britain. Men should show weakness because no one is perfect. Chocolate ice cream is way better than vanilla because chocolate is nice and sweet and satisfying

In the first 16 years of my life I've help everyone around me and i haven't gotten shit from it the only one that ever helps me is my mom. I have "fake" friends as they would say i do so much and don't get anything for it. I would live for yourself and not for others. The united states is the greatest country in many ways but not in all. I don't have children so I don't have a word for this one. There is a God and we should respect that. Why would we all speak one language I think it would be better to have less Languages but not just one. Men should do whats right. Vanilla is superior

I live for other people. I love to make people smile and have a good time, however that's not good for me because I don't really take care of myself. The United States isn't the greatest country. There are other countries that do things better then we do.I believe that people should mind their children. There are a lot of parents who don't care about their kids and just let them wander. For people like that, you do need to be vigilant of their child. I am an atheist. I don't believe in any Spiritual higher power.There will always be a language barrier. Some people will develop accents that are very hard to understand. Everyone should be able to show weakness. I personally prefer chocolate ice cream, but hey, what can you do.

I believe we should live for others and ourselves. There should be a balance between this. We should care for one another. I believe at one point the United States was once the greatest country in the world. What happens with children should be kept between the parents only. No one else should know what happens. I believe that there is a god and that a higher power is keeping an eye on us. I believe that we should not change languages and we're perfectly fine with the languages in the world. They make us who we are as a species, we are diverse. Men should be allowed to have emotions because we are human and that's part of us. Vanilla is better than chocolate in my opinion it's smoother and not too sweet.

1.Everyone should just look out for themselves first and then look out for others because at the end of the day you only have yourself. we may have people who care about us in look out for us but they won't always be there so mind as will learn how to be independent.

I believe you should live for yourself but that doesn’t mean to be inconsiderate. I believe that was true at a time but the USA is slowly becoming terrible thanks to our lovely president. I believe that true as long as you are the only one watching them . I disagree I believe there is a god and a power way higher than mine. I like how diverse the world it it gives Americans character. I believe it’s more attractive when men show weakness and show they are scared to lose something. I like both vanilla and chocolate. :)

You should live because you want to live, not because of anyone else; surely they can be a reason to live for BUT not the only reason. Because then you put the pressure that the person is the world to you and they feel pressured to do certain things and sadly sometimes even leave you because that's responsibility they might not yet be ready for. The United States has had many moments where it is the best country. However, there have been times where it was one of the darkest country's ; There's a whole plethora of things that make a country great but to meet them all and maintain them is impossible with switching our people in charge every so often and not letting the good ones be president for more than 8 years leads to up's and downs (hopefully more up's)

The first question that I am going to answer is that everyone should speak English. And the answer is no because some people do not always know English and that is ok. because there are many ways that you can learn a new language that you do not know. Also, it is ok because the process of learning that new language will be fun because it is always fun to learn something new. The second question that I am going to answer in my opinion is that men should never show weakness, and this is not true because it is ok for men to show weakness. But there is always a time and reason why a man should show weakness. And a man should not always show weakness just because its ok to not show weakness as a man. This is my opinion on the two questions that I chose from the discussion post.

You should live only for yourself because at the end of the day, you only have yourself. I don't think the U.S. is the greatest country in the word, there are a lot of opportunities but also a lot of problems. I agree, your families business should be kept within the family. I don't believe in god but I believe there is a high power but it isn't him. No, I don't think everyone should speak English sometimes your language connects you to your heritage. Weakness is a given because we are human, Men shouldn't feel ashamed for being "weak".

1. It depends on what the person or people did to you. Some people might have never had anyone in their life and fought to survive. But, people out there who only have the motivation to keep living for only for their love one's. For me, I'll live for myself and other's because you never know if that person doesn't want to live for themselves.

I personally believe there has to be a balance but living for ourselves is more important t then living for others. The united states is the best country when it comes to certain aspect but in general i disagree with that statement. Yes, what happens to your children is your business but when it comes to abuse and them being unsafe i disagree. When it comes to a higher god i bellieve in god but sometimes i have my doubts. I don't think everyone should speak english but it is benifical. I disagree with men not showing weakness, everyone should be okay with showing feelings and not being judged. I prefer vanilla over chocolate.

I believe you should live for yourself there's no reason for you to be alive for other people if your just there with them. I do believe the US is the best country because of the variety we have and control and peace we have. I think that your child business is only yours but there some parts you can tell other people like an award or accomplishment. I do believe there is a god since i was taught that's there's a god and he has taken care of me for all these years. I think not everyone should speak English's since most others countries learn English's because of their job. I think men not showing weakness is just someone dumb because we are all going to go through tough times and might let a tear shed. Vanilla is definitely better chocolate.

Vanilla is a far better flavor of ice-cream than chocolate, but I hypothesize the color of chocolate is effectively a placebo that propagates the "mental image" of vanilla being the inferior, plain ice-cream. Truly a difficult, very sophisticated question that I hope others will someday ponder.

As a person you should live for yourself and not other's since the decisions you make are yours to decide of what the outcome can be. I think the U.S. is not the greatest since we have many ideals and flaws. What happens to you kids is your own business but if that kid is harmed in anyway then it becomes someone else's. No I disagree with this statement since I have been raised to believe there is a god somewhere in this world but I do believe that each religion has different beliefs. I believe that everyone can speak whatever native language they are can speak it but English would be very beneficial. I disagree that men should not show weakness it shows that they are comfortable to show their weaknesses without having ideals thrown at them every which way. In my opinion I think chocolate is better than Vanilla ice cream.

I can see why others would prefer to live for themselves and I don't judge anyone who decides that. However personally I hold my values more in the people who surround me than me. If I could I would want to have a positive impact on all those around me no matter what. Even if it costs me personally I wouldn't really mind. I don't care about my life but I can make it more of a good thing than a bad thing. I don't think that i'm really able to give a good answer to what country is best because i simply havent really experienced every day life in other countries and im sure that its all different. However i do know for a fact that every single country has pros and cons. I think that to some extent your children are only your buisness but i think this is only justifiable when there is actually good parents in charge of this. I personally don't believe in a higher power like that. I woulndn't go as far as to say that its all completely fake and that its stupid. Its just that i was raised agnostic and never really ventured into it. However i also think that there are many good practices and moralistic values in a lot of religions like christianity and stuff. I would just rather have these moralistic values and practices because of my own doing and my own way of thinking, empathy, and common sense not some written one. I think that all languages perform their duties and i am by no means qualified to say what languages are better or easier etc. but i do think that it would be great if everyone in the world spoke the same language because it would make worldwide communication even easier and could even help preserve peace. Vanilla ice cream is much better than chocolate ice cream because i think that ice cream is meant to embody a rich creamy milk like food and obviously milk is white and light and ice cream is made from that. I also think that a lot of people agree with me saying that chocolate is the direct opposite to milk. I think that eating chocolate NEEDS milk, but milk doesnt NEED chocolate. Trying to overpower the milk and sugar flavors in the ice cream with a chocolate flavor is idiotic and ludicrous. It is the very opposite of how the milk and chocolate combination should work. Milk is meant to wash down chocolate and in NO WAY should chocolate completely overpower the vanilla/milk. This is why vanilla-chocolate CHIP ice cream is great but CHOCOLATE ice cream is an absolutely moronic and flavor deaf combination.

Men can ABSOLUTELY show emotion in most cases. I think that it is always important to remain strong and supportive for those that you care about, especially if you generally carry that role within your relationship dynamics because sometimes it comes only natural. However you cannot stand forever. Every once in a while you MUST sit down and rest. That doesn't mean you have to go sobbing in front of everyone you see. I just think that it is not healthy to internalize everything. If you have a person that you feel comfortable with talking to about your emotions at all then i strongly encourage you to do so. It could be family, a friend, a teacher, a counselor. Sadly I also know that there are people who don't. People who feel alone and uncomfortable with others. And to those i'd say that its important to show it one way or another. I personally strongly believe in showing emotion through art. Any form of art really. It could be music, painting, film, modeling, arts and crafts etc. I think that its just a beautiful way of showing emotions. Some people might call a man's art weak but i say that it's not "weak" because intricate beauty is simply beauty not weakness. Some people just don't look carefully enough to understand it.

I believe you should live for yourself because there's no purpose in living a life just to satisfy others if you're not happy. The U.S is one of the greatest countries in the world but I don't think it's the greatest. I don't think it should only be your business what happens with your kids. I do believe there is a higher being above our power. I don't think everyone should speak English but we could all learn a universal language. Men are allowed and have every right to show weakness as they're human. Vanilla is better than Chocolates.
