What It Took To Get To My Dream Job

By Mr Kyle on April 17, 2018 / 4,006 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 / 4,491 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...

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...

We saw this guy and stopped to give him a couple bucks, as we drove off she told me that his eyes and voice...

By Sonia Kaur on April 16, 2018 / 3,883 views

Love means giving, giving and only giving without expectations like God's love, mother love, Sun's sunlight, fruits from tree, air to breath, water from sea. What we give them? Nothing, but still they give us. This is Love. Pure love. Love binds everybody together. In family everybody live together just because of love.

After going homeless at the age of 19 just a few months ago with no friends or family that I could ask for help I just kinda gave up and I was going to go drown myself in the river. While sitting with a handful of other homeless folk in front of a casino parking lot a guy walked up and asked for a light and if he could sit with us since his friends kinda bailed on him and we had nothing better to do so we said...

I Knew It, I Knew It, I Knew It!

By D.J.E. Newman on April 12, 2018 / 4,068 views

About five years ago, my employer was holding a gala charity dinner in our cafeteria to fundraise for the local hospice. The call went out for volunteers and I jumped at the chance to work with an industrial dishwasher again as I did throughout High School. At 30 years old and several years into my accounting career, it had been too long since I'd gotten my hands dirty. My wife and I were expecting our...

It Just Makes Me Think

By Jay Abington on April 09, 2018 / 4,573 views

I was riding up to my friends about two hours from my place. About 30 minutes into the ride I am next to this truck on my left and I got this feeling someone was looking at me or something so I look over at the truck and there is this little girl about 8 or 9 years old watching me ride along side them. We made eye contact and she smiles and waved at me. Naturally I wave back and continued on. About...

At a roadside spring where I got some of the best water I ever drank. I am dirt from head to toe. I had spent the last 3 hours of the morning on dirt roads in OR. I have 2 weeks of living gear and a shot gun strapped to my gold wing and a car pulls up. A woman and her 10 year old girl jump out and head for the fountain behind me. I notice that there is a boy about 8 year old in the car...

The Light In His Eyes

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 09, 2018 / 4,213 views

After I graduated college I struggled to find work. I applied everywhere but no one was interested in hiring me. Finally I was able to find a job in a group home for mentally disabled adults. It wasn’t easy work. We were responsible for the feeding, dressing, hygiene, and safety of our clients. We had to keep them on a schedule, take them to their supported jobs, and help them to control their behaviors...

The Mouse And The Bulldozer

By Jay Abington on April 09, 2018 / 3,414 views

I get to work the other day and saw the coolest thing. Ben (mason tractor) was down at the bone yard with the TD 15 so I headed down to check in with him. Turns out he is all the way at the bottom ware we have a spot set aside to dump broken up concrete and stumps. The flat area I'm talking about is the size of a basketball court and when it gets covered with concrete chunks like it is now Ben...

This one time at night sitting watching television with my dad and my younger sister as mother prepared dinner for us, i do not remember what was channeled except for dad sissy and I waiting to dig in. Mother brought the food and went back for more in the kitchen, dad closed his eyes right in front of...

Act Of Kindness By Nurse And Officer Brings Patient To Tears

By Richard Yuhas on April 06, 2018 / 4,001 views

This act of kindness, compassion and caring should not go unnoticed. Upon returning home from the emergency room at Geisinger-Shamokin Area Community Hospital, I heard a knock on my front door. I debated answering due to the excruciating pain that I would endure to stand up, walk over and open it. I decided to answer after hearing what sounded like a police/paramedic/fireman’s radio. My pain...

The Best Part Of My Day

By _scienceftw_ on April 04, 2018 / 4,263 views

My son is Autistic. The best part of my day is the 20 minute night time routine with all his stuffed animals. Repetition doesn't bother him (in fact he prefers it) so my same jokes totally kill every night. It started as a 2 min routine but I'm forbidden to mix up the order or skip anything so anytime I improvise something it's now a permanent addition to the show. Right when...
