Blessing In Disguise

By Maite Dela Luz on November 10, 2018 / 3,413 views

Never did I imagine I would land into a place that I used to hate the most. I could only remember those times when all my plans were set for my american dreams. But God I guess must have been teaching me something, something that I could always value throughout my life. My coming here in Saudi Arabia (KSA) turned to be a blessing in disguise. I have learned many things about life: its significance,...

Big Sister

My fiancee has two younger sisters. I am the youngest of five children, and thus have never had the experience of younger siblings. Lately his sisters (who are both teenagers) have been coming to me to ask for advice. It makes me feel really cool and important, but also a little bit scared that I could be telling them the wrong thing. We come from different religious backgrounds, and I haven't been a...

My dog was sitting by my parents quietly begging for their dinner. I called her seeing if she wanted to come upstairs with me but she didn’t even take her eyes off the food.

My Wicked Heart

By Marilyn S. Lucero on November 07, 2018 / 3,000 views

I watched them with a heavy heart as they left until they slowly disappeared. It was such a heart-wrenching sight! While I would be taking a convenient ride home, he would be trudging on foot along the highway, crossing several busy streets and down the rough and muddy road towards home. It would not be an enjoyable strides and a light walk but a difficult and heavy one. He would be pushing papa in his...

Enough

By Joseph J. Mazzella on November 06, 2018 / 3,718 views

In the summer of my eleventh year the home I had grown up in burned to the ground in the middle of the night. Thankfully, my Mom, Dad, Nana, brothers, and I escaped along with our dogs. Yet, we had nothing but the night clothes we were sleeping in. I spent the rest of that night with friends of our family trying unsuccessfully to sleep in a bed in their attic. I was too scared to doze off, though. I...

Love Is Meant To Be Failed

By Sonia Kaur on November 01, 2018 / 3,634 views

Love is meant to be failed! Why? Why love is meant to be failed? Have you ever thought about this? May be yes or may be no. OK, what I have thought about this is, why our love fails? Whenever we fall in love we forget everything. Yes everything, even our own self as well. This is the one of the main reasons for life failure. Now you must be thinking how?

KA CLANG! KA CLANG! KA CLANG! The old bell was ringing calling us to breakfast at 4-H camp. Several of us, however, weren't paying attention.

We were supposed to have stripped the sheets off of our beds in our cabins, stuff them into our pillow cases, and return them to the office before breakfast. Pillow...

This stranger heard we were planning for my daughter's fifth birthday, and volunteered to drop off and set up a commercial bouncy house (that the kids loved) and he wouldn't take a cent in payment or let us help. He just told us to pay it forward. I was blown away by his generosity and it was a lot of work to set up and pack away and he just said he likes knowing that kids had...

An Epiphany While Being Sick

By Alan on October 22, 2018 / 4,117 views

While writing this impromptu story, I am lying down in bed being absolutely sick and just being all around negative. Thoughts like "Ugh, I wish I could just die right now and end this suffering." or just questioning every gods in existence why do I have to be sick. I'm sure some of you could relate to that. Suddenly, an epiphany of sorts hit me and I thought of a positive story that I just want...
