Message From The Universe

By Dhara on May 14, 2018 / 3,152 views

Studying for my examination for the PhD was very stressful. I endured many meltdowns and kept on doubting my abilities. It was the day before the exam and I was stressed as ever with very little hope that I was going to pass. However, the two days before the exam, I found ladybugs inside my apartment. I have never seen ladybugs inside my apartment until the days leading up to exam. I felt that the Universe...

Mother's Day Surprise

By Kay Heitsch on May 11, 2018 / 3,518 views

It was the day before Mother's Day 2013. I was sitting in my usual spot spending alone time with the Lord. I looked up and noticed the little Mother's Day statue Todd had given me many years before. I had it on a shelf along with other memories of days gone by. It was hard to believe it had been 25 years ago that Todd had died in a car accident. As I sat in my chair lost in my memories I...

Pay It Forward In The Drive Thru Ripples Through Line

By TrickyRipper on May 11, 2018 / 3,482 views

I'm a manager at a Taco Bell in a pretty apathetic city. People trying to scam, steal, shoot up in the bathroom, pan handlers, the whole 9 yards. And today in the Drive thru a guy comes through and orders about $10 worth of food and after his order is made my cashier comes up to me and says that this guy wants to pay for the person behind him. I tell her it's okay and just make sure he knows how much...

This is at my rented studio/workspace. I figured that if I kept the dog quiet, I'd be able to bring him to work with me. That secret lasted about a day. When I dropped by the landlord's place to give her a "let's have a good relationship" gift, the first thing she said was "Did I hear a dog barking yesterday?" I told her that, yeah, I had a dog but that he wasn't...

A Growing Heart

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 07, 2018 / 4,877 views

I was selfish as a teenager. This I freely admit. I usually spent my time thinking about myself and taking care of my own needs. I let my older brother do most of the chores around the house until he left for college. I let my Mom and Dad worry about our bills and problems while I read books, played, and lost myself in my own imagination. This didn’t change even when I went to college either. I studied...

Back To The Square One!

By Anjali Mohapatra on May 03, 2018 / 3,216 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 / 4,179 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 / 3,984 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 / 4,026 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 / 4,525 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 / 4,290 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...

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...
