I was headed out the door the other day with my two sons. We were going to drive to the local grocery store to pick up a few odds and ends that we had run out of during the week. I shut the door quickly because my dogs were already barking at being left behind in the house. We headed down the hill to my car, climbed inside, and buckled our seat belts. Then I reached into my pocket for the car keys. They...

What Little I Know About Love

By Rick on April 09, 2017 / 3,791 views

I used to think love was just one thing, the same thing that everybody looked for. When found, love had the same face, the same laugh, the same deep teary eyed feeling of unspeakable joy. How could I think that love was only one thing, one feeling that never changed? Love changes, it grows deeper and stronger. And, it dawned on me, no one's love ever matched a single other person's love. Everyone's...

While walking along the busy Sir Apollo Kagwa road one evening, I happened to come across a lady seated by the roadside. She looked hopeless and was weeping bitterly but as I approached her, she hastily tried to wipe away her tears so that I couldn't notice what was happening. However, I had already realized from a distance that she was crying and even her teary eyes could surely give her away. When I...

Say Yes

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 03, 2017 / 4,513 views

I can remember my Mom telling me once that after I learned to say, “Mama” and “Dada” my third word was “No!” Sadly, I used that word much too often as a boy. I didn’t want to eat my vegetables. I didn’t want to go to bed on time. I didn’t want to work in the garden. I didn’t want to stay in the yard when I played. I would much rather read books than...

Nick and I told Sophia that after 1 whole month of going poop on the potty, she could pick out a special prize. She, of course, picked a new doll. The obsession is real. While we were checking out, the cashier asked Sophia if she was going to a birthday party. We both gave her a blank stare. She then pointed to the doll and asked Sophia if she picked her out for a friend. Sophia continued to stare blankly and...

You knew how hard of a day I had at work. I walk in and head to the bedroom to change. And every one of my stuffed animals are upside down - leaning back on the pillows doing headstands in a line. I couldn't stop laughing. And you had the bathroom darkened, candles lit, the tub drawn and a cold beer waiting for me. I love you so much. After 35 years, my heart still races when I see...

Never Tell Me The Odds

By Action_lawyer_comics on April 02, 2017 / 2,135 views

I just got myself into a really good internship and wanted to both share my happiness here and illustrate how the odds often aren’t nearly as bad as they seem. I had already been through higher education once. I got a worthless 4-year degree, started working in restaurants, got tired of foodservice, tried a few things but the jobs I found were all pretty low-paying. I started to think of...

What’s wrong with me? It’s something every teenager wonders from time to time throughout their life. Most people just say “nothing” or “you're perfect just the way you are” when asked that question.

I'm not a crazy religious person, but I definitely stand by the fact that he's the only reason...
