Hang With Friends

Come on in, pull up a chair!

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.

Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.

Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.

This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.

A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.

Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

Happy first day of Spring to all of you.  Almost all the snow is gone from the ground, the sun is shining.........but it's 14-degees outside!!  Yikes!  I'm sure looking forward to the warmer weather. 

Ian, I wish you well as you attend to your family.  Sorry to hear about your bad news. 

Melinda, I'm also in a union, so health care coverage is always subject to the bargaining process during contract negotiations.  I have to say, I've been pretty lucky having decent health care throughout the years despite having different coverage from different insurance companies from time to time.  I've also been very lucky to have been able to keep my same doctor that I've had for over 20 years.  I know some people have to switch doctors or pay more money because they are 'out of network.'  This is why we need universal health care in this country.  Our employers should NOT have to be in the business of offering us our health insurance.  Employers are only looking at the bottom line costs to provide insurance which is why so many people end up with inferior coverage or no coverage at all.  [stepping off soapbox now.]

I know Joan, outrageous right?!  I had to pay around $400 in total I think.  I am lucky we are good with money and had it.  Otherwise my Mom would insist on paying for it!  Our ins. co. pays for so much because my son is a type 1 diabetic, I have health problems, and my daughter and I are both on meds for anxiety.  They don't pay for preventive care.  My husband is in a Union, and the ins. we have is negotiated and in their contract, so I don't really have a choice.  It does suck!  They never paidfor any well-baby checks when my kids were babies either.  It's only now "good" ins. because they pay for stuff that is wrong with us.  I am worried about the upcoming contract.  I will say, our ins. for hospitilization, which is a different company, is wonderful.  I have had 2 kids, 3 operations, and my son was in when he was first diagnosed, and we didn't pay a dime for any of it.

Tony, love the cartoon!

Happy First Day of Spring everyone, even though it's freezing here in Northern Illinois, and there is snow everywhere! lol.

Nathan Young That's true Jonathan Brown.  At one time I was a member of the MRA board when it was more open towards hearing an orthodox Mormon views on things.  Since that time the MRA is now under the stewardship of a new 'religion' the 'Society for Humanistic Mormonism' which is merely another apostate religion.  It will fail just like all other apostate forms of Mormonism have failed including might I add the Mormon "Transhumanist" Association and their kind, and all the front…

Hello fellow atheists!  I have joined this site in an attempt to find other rational individuals, such as myself, and to promote a current charity drive that I am trying to get going for the Oklahoma tornado victims.  I have managed to get many groups from around my area, including the Beyond Belief Foundation to back me on this endeavor. 

I am located in Newnan, Ga and have my own atheist group entitled "Coweta County Atheists".  I am currently being backed by Spaulding Co.…
