Give It Your Best

By Joseph J. Mazzella on September 12, 2016 / 0 views

I have been trying to fix up my old house this Summer. The work I was able to hire people to help me with looks pretty good. The work I tried to do myself, not so much. The tiles aren’t lined up right. The caulk is messy. The screws are crooked. The nails are bent. One of the door knobs is broken. And the dogs are sliding into the walls every time they run across the new rugs because I didn’t...

I have been blessed with many good people around. One of them is my husband, Joshua. A few years ago, I was forced to quit my teaching job due to poor health. Staying at home, I felt down and useless. Joshua sensed my confidence faded little by little. One summer afternoon, he went home carrying a small-sized school white board, sweetly said to me, “You can do it again. You are a good teacher. Remember...

The day my wife Cindy died was the darkest day of my life. She died from a very aggressive breast cancer. I lost my faith, and I was angry at God for taking her from me. It's been 12 years since she passed away, everyday has been a struggle. I'ld like to say that things got easier, of course they didn't, that wasn't God's plan for me. I still don't know what that could be and I'm...

The Dilemma

By Rick on September 07, 2016 / 0 views

To lie or not to lie. Telling the truth sucks compared to the benefits of lies. We learn this as mere babes. "The dog ate the cookie. Not me, Mom," kinda stuff. And it gets far more serious later in life. But we all have to make the choice. Every day the dilemma presents itself. For some it seems there is no dilemma at all. Lying gets easier. Some become masters. Others struggle each day to do what...

Fluffy

Recently a kind lady found a six week old puppy abandoned in her driveway. It was skin and bones, covered in fleas, and close to death. It was beyond belief how anyone could do this to a little, baby dog. This wonderful woman, though, rescued this tiny, white ball of fluff, took him in and bathed him a long time to kill the fleas. Then unable to raise him herself she put a notice on Facebook trying to find him...

A huge applause echoed in the huge carpeted and Corinthian room as Jane, the most celebrated female model of the city gracefully walked along the pathway. Shoulder length bronze hair, fair complexion emblazoned with a broad smile was Jane, the guest of honour waving her thin, long-fingered hand to the group of admirers at her sight. The sound of applause dwindled in the vestibule at the beginning of...

"Never stop BELIEVING because MIRACLES happen everyday!" Has God ever asked you to do something you thought was ridicules? Around six months after our son Todd's death, our younger son Brandon (then almost three) began stuttering. You see, Brandon and I went for a walk each night, and about this time we saw a dead, decaying bird lying on the side of the road. Brandon...

Wet Eyes

I was looking through some old photo albums the other day. I had already looked through them many times before but I felt a sudden urge to see those old pictures again. I found myself reliving so many beautiful memories from my childhood. There was my dear Nana giving me a bath when I was a baby. There was me and my brother standing in front of the world's ugliest Christmas tree. There was my first dog:...

School Supplies

By Leland Michael on August 31, 2016 / 0 views

I was feeling pretty jaded this morning as two different sets of parents at Walmart stopped me in the school supplies aisle to complain about how much they had to get their kids this year. 'This is just ridiculous, I don't know how these teachers think we are suppose to get all this stuff.' As they complained, they seemed to be oblivious to the fact that my cart was filled with a class...

As usual my daughter helped me by pushing the trolley, placing our shopping on the counter, packing it in the bag for me and using my bank card to pay as I couldn't reach the card machine, just a normal trip to the shops apart from one thing was different for us today! We went to leave...

How To Make Friends And Connect With People In Challenging Times

By Max DuBowy on August 29, 2016 / 0 views

It can be difficult to make friends living in a big city, especially when you don’t know many people. I know what it’s like to be new to a city without knowing anyone. I moved more than ten times before I turned 18 years old and always had to start fresh in each new environment. Over years of experience and studying social skills, I discovered that it’s possible to make...

Today I painted a new residents nails at work and as we were going over colors, she mentioned she wanted clear. The only thought that came to my mind was 'CLEAR?! That's no fun.' I asked her why she wanted clear and she said, 'My hands are ugly, I don't want to draw attention to them.' I then carefully responded with, 'Your hands tell the story of your life. They tell the story of...

Is there any categorisation or fragmentation of "Good and Bad "people on this earth? What we see the 'good and bad' in the people around us,indeed is the reflection of our perspective and perception about them. Right from our birth we have been nourished and fed by the so many 'likes and dislikes' which makes our opinions of good or bad about others. "What...
