Blunders

By Joseph J. Mazzella on July 08, 2020 / 3,673 views

It was the middle of the night and I was sitting in a chair thinking about all the blunders I had made in my life. I was working the overnight shift in a Special Needs group home for mentally handicapped adults. While everyone else was asleep I stayed awake in case of an emergency. Left alone with my thoughts I had gotten to brooding about those blunders I had already made in my short life. I was a young dad...

Be Careful With Your 'I Am' Statements

By A Friend on July 08, 2020 / 4,204 views

When we say things about ourselves our brain is programmed to believe them. So you need to be careful with your words and thoughts. For instance, if you are saying "I am broke" or "I am lonely" or "I am so depressed" our subconscious mind will help us live up to those expectations of ourselves even when those expectations aren't what we really...

Making A New Friend

By A Friend on June 24, 2020 / 5,325 views

My son was about 7 when he told me there was a new child in his class. The boy was from Russia and very shy and he did not speak one word of English. My son seemed intrigued, and sad because he sensed that the boy was lonely. He didn't bring it up with me again, and I just assumed that the teacher was getting him the help he needed. About three weeks later I went in my son's room to see that...

Live In The Moment

By Judith Maduhu on June 24, 2020 / 5,831 views

Amy and Susan both live an average life. They have an average house, an average job, and an average partner and average kids. There is really nothing special about their lives, but there is also nothing really negative about their lives. They both lead perfectly normal existences. And while Amy and Susan are both content, it always seems that Amy was happier than...

From The Mouth Of Babes!

By A Friend on June 24, 2020 / 3,408 views

I once worked for nine years at the most entertaining job in the world! My position was titled "Childcare Attendant" and I "toiled away" playing with children all day at a childcare service in a large department store. The store happened to be located in a city that was headquarters for an international company which employed personnel from all parts of the world. So shopping in its aisles...

I Witnessed A Miracle!

By Judith Maduhu on June 22, 2020 / 4,238 views

I was walking home one late afternoon, as I approached my place there was a cute little boy playing just beside a construction site. The site was barricaded using iron sheets, so I smiled down at the little boy and he smiled back shyly as he walked away from the barricades. Just as he moved, the barricade was down right there on the same spot where the kid was playing, I was shocked and hurriedly...

Powerful Things

After being closed for so long due to the Carona virus, I heard yesterday that the local thrift store will be opening again. I have always enjoyed shopping there not so much for the bargain prices on used clothes and books as for the unique experiences I have had there. One such experience has a special place in my heart, mind, and soul. I was at the store browsing through the book shelves looking...

I'm Finally Getting Better

By A Friend on June 14, 2020 / 3,313 views

So as a small explanation of what I mean, since October of last year my back and left leg slowly started getting worse and worse. By Christmas it got to the point where I could go through my day but the pain would still faintly be there. I succumbed to the pain and decided to lay down all day and night and not do as much physical work. In the next month I gained 10 pounds and lost so much of my...

Comfort In The Storm

There is the famous poem/song that goes along the lines of: This is a story of a dream I had last night, walking down a sandy path, G-d was at my right. Two sets of footprints were formed in the sand, one set were my very own and the other was G-d's. But only one set were present when troubles did drew near, He stood and watched me suffer, no part of Him was there. But then He said to me,...

My Mother's Teaching: Integrity Leads To A Life Of Honor

By Glory Fu Yu-Liang on June 08, 2020 / 4,563 views

When I was little, I was taught to be a person of integrity. This means that I maintain high moral standards, and do the right thing even when no one is watching. After I grew up, I started applying this principle to every area of my life, but in doing so, I encountered opposition. Whenever I told the truth, I was told, “You take things too seriously.” Whenever I worked hard, others...

Grow!

My husband and I bought a house when we were in our 50's. One reason the small fixer-upper (which we knew we'd never have money to fix!) was so attractive, was a massive Japanese Red Pine which looked like a giant bonsai in its front yard. For 20 years it was a a beauty to all who passed by, raccoons who climbed its trunk, and squirrels who ate in its branches. It shaded the bright sun over my small...

I Used To Be Racist But I'm Changing

By A Friend on June 01, 2020 / 3,273 views

I'm so sorry to the people I automatically looked at and judged. I was raised in a racist household but Im realizing theres no reason to hate every group of people that is different than me. We bleed the same color of blood. I just don't have a reason to hate people I don't know. Most of the problems I have encountered in my life were by my own race. There's literally no reason for...

To Be Loved

I was in college and was sleeping deeply in my dorm room bed after a rough day of classes. Suddenly, I heard the door open and light from the hallway streamed in. My best friend and roommate was standing there unsteadily. His girlfriend had broken up with him earlier that day and he had spent the evening downtown in a bar trying to drown his sorrows with 13 whiskey sours. I got up and helped him to climb up...
