I Guess That Will Do?

By Jim Rohn on February 09, 2017 / 5,293 views

It seems that every life form on this planet strives toward its maximum potential…except human beings. A tree does not grow to half its potential size and then say, "l guess that will do." A tree will drive its roots as deep as possible. It will soak up as much nourishment as it can, stretch as high and as wide as nature will allow, and then look down as if to remind us...

Not Done Yet

By Joseph J. Mazzella on February 07, 2017 / 3,378 views

Life is full of miracles. They surround us every day. One of these miracles happened to me recently. I was filling my car’s tank at a local gas station. It was only 10 A.M. but I already felt tired. It was a cloudy, gloomy and rainy day and I hadn’t slept well the night before. After I paid for the gas I turned my car towards the main road. I looked right and left then my brain sent the signal for...

The Super Bowl Taught Me An Invaluable Lesson

By Tim on February 06, 2017 / 5,354 views

This Super Bowl taught me an invaluable lesson: Just because you're down so much, and have people counting you out...that if you live in the present moment, and take it step-by-step, you can overcome the odds. For anyone who watched, you saw what happened at halftime. When the Patriots were down 21-3 we were reminded by the commentators that no team in Super Bowl history has overcome a 10 point...

Broken Wings

By Najwa Zebian on February 05, 2017 / 9,131 views

Don't break a bird's wings and then tell it to fly. Don't break a heart and then tell it to love. Don't break a soul and then tell it to be happy. Don't see the worst in a person and expect them to see the best in you. Don't judge people and expect them to stand by your side. Don't play with fire and expect to stay perfectly...

How To Lead A Happy Life?

By Sonia Kaur on February 03, 2017 / 7,470 views

We are sent in this world to live, to be happy, to love and to be loved, to laugh, to give, to take, to help etc. Life means to live, to make most of it. You never know what comes next so live fully. Make your life extra ordinary. Be an example, be an inspiration. Live as people learn to live from you. Make your life beautiful. First of all the main thing in our life is God. Never forget him and...

I Don't Know Why

By Joseph J. Mazzella on January 31, 2017 / 6,576 views

For all of my days in this world I have been struggling to understand life with very limited success. It seems that the more I learn the more I see just how much I don't know. I think that the singer Carolyn Arends said it best when she wrote: "Life is messy. Life is mystery." In the messy mystery that has been my own life there has been so much that I don't understand and...

Beauty Of Relationship

By Deepika on January 30, 2017 / 3,337 views

Every Relation does not need a name, sometimes nameless relation is pure and beautiful like Flower and Bumblebee! They're always living together whether they don't know what the relation they have. Just like that some relationship does not need a name to continue. It just goes with the flow....Being with each other make them feel alive! They just enjoy each other's presence...

Accept Yourself As You Are

By Sonia Kaur on January 29, 2017 / 4,328 views

Nobody will accept you as you are only God will accept you. Just think for a while, has God come and find fault in you? Has he ever told you that you are wrong you should be like this or that. No, God will never challenge you, God will never insult your individuality because he loves you, he loves you more, he loves you more than you think, more than your imagination. His love is out of explanation. His love...

I Am Going To Marry You

By Anonymous on January 27, 2017 / 6,321 views

I fell in love with you at first sight. It was raining, and I was in high school (my God, was I ever really in high school?), and I saw you, and the world shifted from its axis. The rotations reversed. Everything became disjointed and more real in an instant. That was a long, long time ago. You didn't know. Since then, our lives have taken very different paths. We have been many things to each...

It's The Little Things

By Excellent Underpants on January 27, 2017 / 2,060 views

I'm a big dude, and finding fun things to wear in my size can be difficult. Yesterday, on a whim I checked the underwear aisle at the department store I was in, and they had some in my size. Not only are they in my size, they are snug fitting, comfortable, and they have bright colors and good looking patterns on them. I feel like a million bucks. I know no one is going to see them today (though feeling...

Don't Be Afraid To Take Chances

By Sunny Skyz on January 27, 2017 / 5,606 views

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn’t supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You’ll have your heart broken and you’ll break others’ hearts. You’ll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you’ll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you’ve never...

Just Winter

By Joseph J. Mazzella on January 24, 2017 / 3,042 views

I can still remember it like it was yesterday. It was a dark, dreary day. The Christmas decorations had been taken down. The old year had given way to the new. Now it was just Winter. Outside a bitter wind was blowing. Gray clouds covered the sun. Several inches of snow lay on the grass and trees. Inside my water was dripping so my pipes wouldn’t freeze and I was sipping coffee so I wouldn’t freeze...

Pat

By Perla K.PPP on January 23, 2017 / 4,365 views

In April 2014 I had a major surgery, a hysterectomy. The day after the operation the catheters were removed and the nurse told me that I had to get out of bed and walk a little. I felt very tired and every movement caused me a lot of pain, especially the sharp pinching sensation of the surgical staples on my abdomen was very uncomfortable. However, even with the pain and discomfort I could get up and I just...

One Life

By Alexander Kovarovic on January 23, 2017 / 3,656 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 "it'll...

Being Polite Is Not So Bad

By Sonia Kaur on January 21, 2017 / 6,453 views

Politeness is one of the most beautiful colour of life. It makes life beautiful. It makes you beautiful as well. Politeness comes with words and with actions. The throw of our words how we speak with others. The language we use with and for others with them and in their absence. Politeness doesn't mean doing buttering. Politeness means speaking or acting with full of love. Politeness is a good...

Couple Of Old Guys Helped Me Out Of Snow Today

By Horkkanyrkki on January 21, 2017 / 1,905 views

I came back from a vacation and my car had been parked for a week. A TON of snow had fell and my car was literally inside a pile of snow, as the parking lot had been plowed around it. Couple of very old gentlemen came to help me dig it out of there in freezing weather. Even had a little shovel with them and they actually pushed the car eventually out of the snow. Took us almost an hour. I felt bad, as a young...

The Face In The Mirror

By Joseph J. Mazzella on January 20, 2017 / 4,483 views

Bend! Push! Lift! Toss! Bend! Push! Lift! Toss! I was slowly shoveling out my driveways, porches, and pathways from five inches of freshly fallen snow. My new snow shovel was working well but my body was feeling its fifty years and my bad back was feeling more like eighty. Still, I had shoveled out from deeper snows than this before, so I kept at it. I breathed in the frosty air and hummed a few songs as I...
