What's our choice to give and what our choice to take? We as a human being always wants to take without giving. Is it possible? I don't think so. First you have to give before taking something. Why we unable to maintain relationships? Because we expect a lot and give very little sometimes not at all. Give love and enhance your patience because while giving, you need lots of patience. So give love and...

You Will Always Have Reasons To Thank God For

By Job Lazarus Okello on April 04, 2017 / 5,352 views

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 / 4,913 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...

Every Shade Is Beautiful

By Brandi Benner on April 03, 2017 / 3,070 views

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...

Giving Back And Remembering What You Have

By Melissa K. on April 03, 2017 / 4,052 views

I open my eyes every morning in my house, on a bed. My clothes always fit just right and my shoes aren't worn ragged. I have electricity 24/7 and running water. My showers are always warm and in the seasons I am able to stay cool or warm. I have a good education, and parents and famipy that love and care about me. I have a meal in the morning, noon, and night, occasionally snacking as I please. My water is...

My Stuffed Animals Were Doing Headstands On The Bed When I Got Home

By ScubaTwinn on April 02, 2017 / 2,021 views

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 / 2,505 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...

One Life

By Alexander Kovarovic on April 01, 2017 / 2,790 views

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. Well yes that is true, you are perfect just the way you are, but does hearing that really help you feel better about yourself? No it doesn't. Hearing things like...

I Did It

By Daniel Curcio on April 01, 2017 / 4,053 views

One day I woke up and decided that was it. I saw the light. I got away from the mad times and wasted life. I felt tired, but I knew this was finally it.The only real thing that pulled me through was God I believe. He is keeping me here for now and there must be a good reason. I want to thank him for that. I'm not a crazy religious person, but I definitely stand by the fact that he's the only reason...

Making My Sufferings My Greatest Source Of POWER

By Khanselma on March 31, 2017 / 2,894 views

Throughout my life I have suffered a lot. I’ve been depressed, rejected by loved ones, betrayed, I’ve been bullied in school, humiliated, disrespected and lied to. I have also experienced heart break, failure, been manipulated and hurt. I’ve suffered through panic attacks, anxiety and suicidal thoughts, heck I’ve even been through physical and psychological abuse. But...

If You See Something Beautiful In Someone, Speak It

Dale Carnegie have said "The Most Important goal of anyone's life is to feel Important". But unfortunately the world doesn't allow people to feel important easily. I mentioned easily because you as a individual can feel important but there are so many standards have been elevated by people and society and industry that can be explained in this way, if you have certain body shape you can feel...

Don't Quit

By John Greenleaf Whittier on March 30, 2017 / 13,238 views

"When things go wrong, as they sometimes will; When the road you're trudging seems all uphill; When the funds are low and the debts are high; And you want to smile but you have to sigh. When all is pressing you down a bit- Rest if you must, but don't you quit. Success is failure turned inside out; The silver tint on the clouds of doubt;...

I Really Put Myself Out There For The First Time In Years And She Said Yes

By Tsaketh on March 29, 2017 / 3,982 views

Not silver lining, but for context: my fiancee left me in 2015 for a married man she met on Facebook. It killed me. My GPA dropped from 3.8 to 2.0 and I suffered an academic suspension. I slipped into a series of major depressive episodes and could barely speak. That's not an exaggeration. She was the only person I had ever loved. 5 years later she left me out of the blue six months before we were to be...

So I Looked Up My Ex Online...

By Anonymous on March 29, 2017 / 4,360 views

I remember having a horrific breakup 4 years ago when I was 25. I was moving in with my boyfriend, talking about getting engaged in a few months, we were inseparable, and then one day he just told me he was leaving. No explanation. He blocked everyone we knew on social media (myself included), packed his bags and flew to another country almost overnight. His housemate told me later he refused to say goodbye...

The last few years have been difficult ones. Between leaving my hometown, friends, and family except for my wife behind; and doing it all for a job which is a hostile workplace, I've really struggled with finding positive things to say. Finally, though, things are really looking up! I'll be leaving my job in a handful of weeks in order to move my wife and I closer to family; this morning, I...
