Raised Christian, then become Atheist. For the past two years I have been looking into Buddhism. I find it helpful to deal with the eb and flows of life.

You don’t decide what is relevant. Ukraine has not forgotten and it is clear which side they have chosen now. No country in the world has such bad relations with it’s neighbours than Russia.

I used to be Christian. I became an Atheist and since a couple of years I got into Buddhism. I do see how certain aspects of Christianity can help people cope with life the same way Buddhism does. - The idea of unconditional love. Most peop

It’s not the house that’s worth more. It’s the land. If cities and towns develops, land prices should go up. Buildable land near an office, supermarket and bar should be worth more than the same piece in the middle of nowhere.
