Mowing The Lawn

By Joseph J. Mazzella on June 05, 2018 / 4,169 views

It had been raining on and off for several days and the weather forecast called for even more rainy days ahead. The only break seemed to be for several hours this morning so I knew that I would have to cut the grass now. I had several large lawns to do so I quickly pulled out my old push mower and hoped that the wet grass wouldn’t choke it up too much. I got to work cutting 20 inch swaths over and over...

And when my dad had come and woken me up to tell me that his car was broken into and my backpack was stolen, I was...

One More Ride

By Joseph J. Mazzella on June 01, 2018 / 3,945 views

I was ten years old riding my bicycle at break-neck speed down a hill near my home. This was long before bike helmets were used and I am sure I was making my poor, old, gray-haired guardian angel work overtime again. Only a month before I had hit a rock in the road, flown over my handlebars and smashed open my skull. I had walked home bleeding, terrified my Mom, and gotten a trip to the hospital to have my...

Listening is an art which one has to develop. Listening means to understand and learn from a person. It pays nothing if you start listening, you will get to know one thing from everybody.

When A Random Stranger Does Something Nice

By Tim on May 29, 2018 / 4,745 views

This happened just a few minutes ago and I wanted to share. It's not a huge deal but put a smile on my face and made me feel very grateful.

I head into the store and notice that the refrigerated and frozen sections are...

Yesterday I was on the treadmill at Planet Fitness when a young guy got on next to me. He looked like a lot of guys there with many tattoos. I smiled and it wasn't very long before we started to talk. I questioned him about his tattoos and he laughed when I said I bet I'm the only one here without one. I was curious how painful they were to get. He grinned and said it depended on where they...

Sea Of Information

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 17, 2018 / 4,544 views

When I was a boy I was the remote. Not only did I get up to change the television channel, I also walked outside to turn the antenna to pick up the other network. My i-tunes were a stack of vinyl records under our plastic record player. My Google was a pile of books in the corner of the living room. My e-mail was a sheet of paper, a pen, and an envelop. My video games were played in my mind while I romped...

"The Tomorrow Man theory. It’s pretty basic. Today, right here, you are who you are. Tomorrow, you will be who you will be. Each and every night, we lie down to die, and each morning we arise, reborn. Now, those who are in good spirits, with strong mental health, they look out for their Tomorrow Man. They eat right today, they drink right today, they go to sleep early today–all so that...
