My grandfather died when my dad was 14. His ashes were spread on a spot at a local cemetery. My grandmother never remarried and supposedly never even dated again. 40+ yrs later, my grandmother died. We spread her ashes on the same spot her husband was. Then, we went inside some building at the cemetery I didn't know about. Apparently, this is where they kept personal records for the...

Returning A Lost Key

By A Friend on August 09, 2018 / 4,386 views

I was biking on a trail in Boulder, Colorado. I had just got off work from a 10 hour shift, so I wasn’t planning on anything too strenuous. About 2 miles of biking down the trail I pass another group of cyclers, and almost directly after them, I see a key in the middle of the trail. I pick it up, and it’s a newer style Jeep key. I turned around and attempted to catch up with the group, but...

By Judith Maduhu on August 06, 2018 / 5,124 views

Absolutely true...you can do anything in this world,you just have to want to. Well a simple example to back this powerful statement up. We woke up one morning and my roommate's laptop wouldn't just start,it was really a surprise since it all happened un-announced. She had a lot of presentations to work on and potentially she was a bit confused. Then one thing came in her mind,"google", so she...

Met a Nigerian man at the World Cup & told him how much I loved this jersey (sold out everywhere). He took my address and told me he'd mail me one. Didn't believe him but today this showed up all the way from Nigeria. Random acts of kindness do...

Stories Based On Sixteen Words

By Anjali Mohapatra on August 02, 2018 / 3,896 views

All stories are different from each other in respect of contents, words and themes too. These are few stories based in sixteen words exactly. Kindly have a look: Money, power and position are three most powerful weapons for the downfall of anybody in this Universe. Knowledge is the only property which increases its value the more you give, rather than decreasing. (by...

Boring Wilson

By Janice G. Alcones on August 02, 2018 / 4,611 views

Banana is the favourite fruit of my middle child and one of the 2 fruits he ate together with grapes. When I came home from work last Monday he mentioned that a kid in school called him Ba-na-na! I kept on guessing why he was associated with Banana while he was not eating it in school. He then told me because of his jacket with a yellow hue. Everyday, by 6am my son and I were...

At First Light

By Rene Vera on July 30, 2018 / 3,987 views

I remember the first time I was taken out to pick grapes and what an impact it made on my life at such a young age. My older brothers and sister had already received the call for duty, and this was going to be my first time out. Driving down the road in the early morning hours... I realized that the sun would soon make an appearance…an appearance that would preface an imminent heat, a fervent heat, a...

My Cap Fell Off My Truck Bed While Driving, Some Neighbor Kids Help Me Put It Back On

By C. Tacke on July 26, 2018 / 3,320 views

First I'll give a little back story. Today I was sanding the roof of my truck to bare metal so I could paint over it. I couldn't reach the entire roof from where I was positioned, so I decided to loosen the bolts holding the cap on the bed of my truck down so that I could slide it back. That would allow me to stand in the bed of the truck and reach the entire area of the roof that I wanted to sand....

When I'm an old lady, I'll live with each kid, And bring so much happiness just as they did. I want to pay back all the joy they've provided. Returning each deed! Oh, they'll be so excited! (When I'm an old lady and live with my kids...) I'll write on the walls with reds, whites, and blues, And bounce on the furniture.....wearing my...

Still There

By Joseph J. Mazzella on July 17, 2018 / 4,499 views

I don’t like to dust and only do so when it is absolutely necessary. Yet, with the summer fans blowing and the dogs shedding I found myself working my duster the other day wiping dog hair and dust off the pictures hanging on my wall. I was going as quickly as possible trying to get it over with. In my haste, however, I knocked one the pictures down. I managed to catch it before it hit the floor....

Self Love Explained

By Xenatona on July 16, 2018 / 4,583 views

True self-love is not selfish pleasure, but rather the origin of discipline and willpower. Self-love is not giving yourself everything you want, but rather giving yourself the things that are good for you. Spending the weekend eating pizza and watching movies can feel great, but that is not self-love. Self-love is discipline. It says, “You may not like this, but the future You will want to start...

Cold Drinks On A Hot Day

A girl at work bought a bunch of those big Powerade bottles for the driver's at work when it was in the 90s with high humidity a few weeks ago. Some of the other girls made fun of her for wasting her money. She really is the sweetest person and on a budget. We have at least 2 UPS, 1 mail carrier, 1-2FedX and another profession specific delivery drivers dropping off and picking up...

Deja Vu

By The Tooth King on July 11, 2018 / 4,979 views

Was at the grocery store a while ago and overheard a conversation between a young couple. They were trying to decide how much more they could spend this week. As I walked by, I could see new wedding bands and listened to her ask him "do we have enough to get this too?" His reply was "do you have enough gas in your car til Friday". I've never had a flashback so vivid, to 20+ years ago,...

This man helps customers load groceries in their car and doesn't work for the grocery store. His name is Johnny and he is wonderful. The lot has many stores in it and it's "his job" to go to them every day and help out. Anytime we see him at the Mexican restaurant, he eats with us. Although, they give him free food for his services. We love him and want his company. He likes it...

Just Listen!

By Judith Maduhu on July 09, 2018 / 5,604 views

After long hours of waiting for my friend at the bus station, I got tired and was tempted to just leave and plan another meeting. As I was still deciding, there came a man selling culture shoes and started showing them off to me so as I could buy or something, I just smiled and said thank you. I don't know if it was the smile or what but the young-man stepped closer and stood beside me and started talking...
