A Bit Of Song

By Joseph J. Mazzella on March 14, 2018 / 9,426 views

It was a beautiful morning. I was still asleep in my bed when the rising sun sneaked through my curtains and tapped me on my eyelids. I quickly woke up and walked into my living room. My cat was sitting on top of my desk soaking in the sun that shone through the widow. I smiled at her as I leashed up my dogs and headed outside. I took my time walking them too. It was cold and frost was on the grass, but I...

Someone Had My Car Towed When It Broke Down

By A Friend on March 12, 2018 / 5,919 views

My car recently broke down about 30 miles from home. Someone stopped and asked if I needed help. I said I wasn’t sure how to get my car back to my local mechanic since my insurance didn’t cover towing. They used their AAA membership to call for a tow, waited around for it to show up and signed all the paperwork. More people need to be like...

Daryl

I needed to share this story with the online community. This is my first time sharing ever online, and I have made a rule to not promote my efforts to friends / family. I have made a New Years resolution to give back. Whether it was time or money, just to give back. I do well, so i want to give back to people who need some motivation or help in time in need. Meet Daryl. I did not get a...

Assumptions!

One night, a mother held her five year old son on her lap and sat on the balcony. The star streaked sky was looking marvellous! Both of them stared the twinkling stars. The little boy pointed towards the sky and asked so many questions about the moon and the wonderful sky. Though his little mind was filled with strange questions, his mother patiently answered them and satisfied him. After an hour was spent in...

Hummingbirds

I got a lovely gift in the mail last week. It was a pair of framed pictures. Both were high resolution photographs of birds. They were so beautiful. One in particular caught my eye. It was of a hummingbird frozen in mid-flight. It was flying upside down with its tail feathers held up to hold it steady while its little wings beat. Its long, needle nose was reaching deep into a drooping flower to feast on its...

You can learn something new every day if you listen. ~ Quotes ~ There's a story about a Native American walking in New York City with a friend. The streets were filled with people and cars were honking. All of a sudden the Native American said, "I hear a cricket." His friend responded, "Are you crazy? You couldn't possibly hear a cricket in all this...

My Journey

By Abbie Foster's StayStrong on March 10, 2018 / 4,164 views

From a young age I was bullied. At school, at home and pretty much everywhere I went. It felt like it was me against the world. It's strange really, how a few words can change the course of your life. For me it was more than just words but I am however not yet ready to tell that side of my story. When I was a kid I remember feeling lost, lonely and fragile. I was surrounded by so many people but I just...

Change Your Mind

By Kay Heitsch on March 06, 2018 / 6,796 views

If you truly want to change your life, you must first be willing to change your mind. ~ Change Your Mind Quotes ~ Believe it or not, I used to despise exercise of any kind. I would always say, "I'd rather starve myself to death to stay thin than exercise." But I had a change of mind. Our son Todd was a runner. One day after a race I told him that I would run the next race to...

Cute Gift Of God

By Gayathri.M on March 05, 2018 / 4,302 views

It was truly the most beautiful thing to watch, as the tiny hint of a smile slowly spread across his face and reached his beautiful eyes. His cute little hands went straight into his mouth as he laughed with pleasure at the sight of the smiling faces of his parents. His happiness was infectious as it slowly crept into the hearts of everyone present there. He was none other than the most beautiful creation of...

So You Think You Can...

By Jodi-Ann E.M. Morgan on March 05, 2018 / 3,711 views

I really wanted to meet this guy, I mean really meet him. I'll admit, looking back I was immensely infatuated with him. In this age of social media, I would stalk his FB page, check his Twitter account, everything you could think of, I did, just to see what he was up to. He was on one of my favourite TV shows. He seemed like such a nice, talented, driven guy. Funny and smart. Not to mention gorgeous!...

The Best Thing About Having A Service Dog

By Emma's Owner on March 04, 2018 / 3,464 views

Years ago I dated a woman with a rare disease whose treatment had torn her body apart, and had a service dog for her needs. Emma was primarily used for balance, but picked stuff up too. She was mostly a German Sheppard, but had other in her, so she wasnt as big as a full blooded sheppard. Nicole was constantly in the hospital, and hospital visits suck, and she would nap off on the meds she'd be...

A Random Act Of Kindness

By Momo Wang on March 01, 2018 / 8,435 views

Today after work, as I was driving home, I realized my brake wasn't working. I started to panic and managed to pull over, luckily without crashing into anything (or anyone). It started to rain and get dark. Our campus happens to be in an urban area. I am a medical student. I have a 19-year old car. And now I found myself parked right in front of the hospital helicopter pad during traffic so I knew I had to...

A Short Brown Envelope

"Is your doctor around?" It was around 3pm in the afternoon when a woman in late 40's came to our clinic inquiring for the doctor. I told her that he is no longer available, and then she showed me a piece of paper, indicating that she came from one of the government hospitals where her mother is currently confined. She said she was referred by their doctor to see our consultant. Taking...

Never Give Up

By Anubhav on March 01, 2018 / 5,669 views

If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world your best and it may never be enough. Give your best...

Now, Today, And Always

By Joseph J. Mazzella on February 28, 2018 / 4,842 views

I have a little clock on the bottom right hand side of my computer screen that always tells me what time it is. I also have a clock hanging on my wall. I have two alarm clocks in my bedroom. I have a clock in my car. Every time I look at my cell phone or house phone too, there is the time looking up at me. But the older I get the less I find myself paying attention to any of them. I stopped wearing a watch...

Dad's Promise To His Daughter

Someone asked "What is something you always carry with you no matter where you go? Why?" on a forum. This was my favorite response: "When my daughter was 3 or 4 years old, I took her to Chuck E Cheese. When it was time for...
