How has a song lyric impacted your life? How has your favourite/ one of your favourite song lyrics impacted your life? I typically will not LOVE a song unless there’s at least one lyric that either hurts or heals me in some way. I love talking about favourite lyrics with people because they are so personal- a glimpse into someone else’s life. submitted by /u/cmnsenseonurshoulde…

Got mail notifying me that the short term life insurance plan my grandpa gave me became whole life. Should I just cash out?

What to do with life insurance from parents? My mom has been paying for my life insurance since I was a kid, I’m now 25 (single, no dependents) and she’s transferred the payments over to me (around $130 monthly).

The Mystery Of Your Individual Life I can’t believe it’s been eight years since I realized I needed to withdraw from the fabric of society, to live somewhere on the margins of life. I felt out-of-place, in the middle of it all.  No one was benefitting. This was in 2017.  As I’ve said for years, I hate strife. There is no Source
