I was born in Indonesia and I have lived in the US for 8 years now. I like it here and I don't have any intention of moving back, even though all of my family members are still there. I have been going through cultural adjustment and in a way, I am getting americanized. I found myself distant from people of my country and at the same time, I'm not really "American". However, I have more tendency to adapt myself to become an american, rather than learning deeper about my own roots because I think I need to adapt in the environment that I'm living in. Also, I have this complexion of making myself better, because it's hard to deny that America is the world's benchmark and I tend to view that life back home is inferior. I often ask myself, "If I don't even love myself for being who I actually am, can I actually be a good and complete person?" I am afraid that abandoning what has been a part of me will make me empty and vain. What do you think?

This is a saying by a friend of mine. It helps me to put some things into perspective. Anyone?

Ever happened something to you for which you can't find an explanation, like with ghost or anything similar?

I'm intrigued when people say that the world economy is not a zero sum game, and that jobs going overseas do not hurt us and are in fact a matter of us exploiting the people we give our jobs to. So far, the ones that have said that here have offered nothing to back it up but optimism (driven by a sappy liberalism) and fear of the alternative and magical thinking, i.e. wish fulfillment (my, my, it's unthinkable the first world might collapse so I will say it cannot). If it is not a zero sum game, and everyone can be rich, I would really like to know the economic basis for that claim. You don't have to have an advanced economics degree as I do to answer this question, but I'd like to see more than "I imagine people in poorer nations work harder and would give us all better productivity," or "the people who run the world wouldn't let first world economies collapse" (actual answers from other questions).

What does one focus a bit more on than the other ?

Just as there are differences in different denominations within Christianity, there are some differences within the religious choices of Buddhism.

For Christians, no matter what denomination, the end result should be the same.

"For all Buddhists, the goals are always the same !"

I've started a new job and the people i work with are really not my cup of tea. They are all seem to be a bunch of bitches slagging people behind their backs forming little gangs.
I'm becoming increasingly isolated by one worker who seems to be turning everyone against me, by crawling after everyone. 9 people in the team.
My theory is i never crawl or suck up to anyone ....im just not the type. What do i do?
The person who is turning everyone doesnt like me and i cant stand them. I've tried blanking him (not speaking to him) but this just seems to make it worse because he gets on so well with everyone else. example... sitting in a car waiting on a job with this guy. I say to myself im not going to start the conversation.......15mins later not a word said sitting in silence. Why should i always start the conversation...im sick of it. The guy is a nob. I cant get another job because their are none. I just dont know how to win. Seems to me im losing the battle.

When you have to write about your identity...what do you speak about?
Language?
Religion?....personality?...or you describe yourself?
I have to make an essay about my identity and I don't know what to speak about.
Please help me...

Everytime my boss asks me the slightest thing I tear up. He thinks its funny, but I feel very unprofessional and not taken very seriously. Does anyone know a way to stop yourself from crying when you feel it coming on? I've got to stop this!

My doctor asked about my kid and I said he'll be three tomorrow and he asked if he's developed his own little personality, and I said, "yes," but I don't think crying and screaming is a personality, so maybe it's my fault? If I don't have a personality, could my kid still acquire one on his own? What can I do?

Well, I dream about my future hubby and life. Now, I know it can't hurt you if you don't do it too much, and it's just your imagination...and it can be fun, it's your chance to "make it happened". So, what do you day dream about? I also know that since it is fiction and all-nothing serious should be taken.

I was watching a news report on Nicole Richie. A girl said 'We look up to her...' And I was wondering 'What for? Why do teens have no moral leaders within their own family? These 'stars' obviously have so many problems so what is it that makes them appealing to teens? Is it money? Fame?'
