Back To The Square One!

By Anjali Mohapatra on May 03, 2018 / 3,197 views

It is not far away from the city, but a little away like two and half hours journey from the main city. In fact, it is granted as a place, where people can constrain themselves by practice, from all the evil effects of anger, lust, jealous etc. In one word, we can say 'Self meditation Centre'. Truly, the institution is located in the lap of nature's stunning beauty. Every year, hundreds...

A Few Minor Repairs

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 30, 2018 / 4,160 views

The frame of my 23 year old car had finally become so rusted that it was unsafe. Sadly, I decided it was time to trade it in for a less old one. I found myself then at a local used car lot looking at a 12 year old sedan. There was no way I could afford a new car, but this one seemed in fine shape. I made the deal and drove it home. It wasn’t long, however, before I noticed a squealing when I...

My Boyfriend Brought Me Tampons To Work While Wearing His WoW Robe

By Kris10amanda on April 30, 2018 / 3,913 views

I am a nurse and had an unexpected period today (I normally don't have them at all) and called my boyfriend to bring me some tampons and new underwear he instantly said okay, even after he had just brought me a Starbucks coffee on his way home from work (he worked last night), and ~15 min later I see him walking up the hallway in full view of every one I work with wearing his geeky AF World of Warcraft...

You Write Your Own Story, It Is Up To You What Others Remember You By

By 10MinuteMotivation on April 30, 2018 / 4,012 views

In life, something that is very certain is that you write your own story. You are in charge of all the things you do and all the things others remember you by. This means that all of your actions will eventually write your story. It is important to know what you want your story to be, how you want you and others to perceive you during your life. Do you want to be known as a lazy person who has...

One day I was siting on my bike outside of a little store in Bute Falls and this car pulls up with three kids a guy about my age and this old man that had to be in his late 70s. The kids and the driver get out and go into the store, a minute later the old man gets out and comes over and starts up a conversation. We talk for a bit about nothing and I see the kids and the other guy come out of the...

In Spite Of Everything - A Teaching Of Overcoming Adversity

By Jocelyn Bishop on April 26, 2018 / 4,464 views

"In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can't build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery, and death. I see the world gradually being turned into a wilderness, I hear the ever approaching thunder, which will destroy us too, I can feel the sufferings of millions and yet, if I look up into the heavens, I think that it will all come...

Do Your Best

By Jay Abington on April 23, 2018 / 4,267 views

One of the reasons it was such a great summer was because of school.You see I had failed to pass the second grade and the chance to do the year over without any of my new friends knowing well as you can imagine that was a relief like no other. This brought back a memory that I had forgotten about till just now. After a pause of about ½ an hour to recall the details I have returned...

Just Say Something

Yesterday on my way back home from Jeff's house I decided to stop at Basken Robins. As I walk up not really paying attention this woman comes blasting out past me obviously disturbed about something. I wasn't going to be long before I knew why. I walk in and behind me another woman followed. Sitting at a table were two kids, a boy about 13 or 14 and across the table his sister 12 maybe they...

Sometimes It's Worth Doing

Yesterday I was told something I have to share with somebody. We were talking about the struggles of work and their ambitions she said that today she was reminded of why she does what she does. The young lady is a personal teacher to 3 separate autistic kids, 2 boys and a 13-year-old girl. The young teacher just started in this field after graduating collage 7 months ago. The two boys can...

Family Reunion

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 23, 2018 / 3,260 views

Epiphanies often come to us at the strangest times and wisdom often awakens in us in the most unusual places. It was a late Friday afternoon and my family and I were at the grocery store. We usually shop on Saturdays but the early Spring weather forecast had predicted a Winter snowstorm. Thus, here we were grabbing groceries in time to beat the storm. Unfortunately everyone else in town had the same idea. The...

Email From Grandma

By Manicam on April 19, 2018 / 4,728 views

My grandma turned 90 last year. She sends an email to the family every night to let everyone know what she's up to. This was the end of her email tonight. "I was going to sort some papers and discard, well, I started reading some letters and clippings, and the afternoon was gone and I still didn't pitch much. Also, ended up being depressing as they were stuff with square dancing and to...

What It Took To Get To My Dream Job

By Mr Kyle on April 17, 2018 / 3,439 views

When I was three, I told my mom and dad I wanted to make cartoons. I drew some weird stuff like people in burning buildings and people getting trampled at rodeos, but they weren’t bad drawings and my parents were cool with it. When I was 11 I joined an AOL channel to make comics and met other kids that did the same, and we’d mostly all keep in touch for the rest of our...

A Broken BB Gun

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 16, 2018 / 3,948 views

When I was a young boy my favorite toy was a BB gun. It was shaped like an old fashioned Winchester lever action rifle. When I had it in my hands I suddenly became all the heros of the Western movies that I watched. I was John Wayne riding to the rescue, fighting off train robbers along the empty train tracks that ran next to our yard. Occasionally I would shoot BB’s for target practice but most of the...

Banking And Finance (Blessings And Favour)

By Jodi-Ann E. M. Morgan on April 16, 2018 / 3,127 views

One morning at church, we were all given a blank cheque and asked to imagine that Jesus Himself had given it to us. Our pastor then asked us to fill out the cheque, putting whatever it is we want God to bring to fruition in our lives. I thought long and hard about this. After filling it out I said to myself, if only it were so easy. If only there was a bank down the street where I could just cash...
