By Christine on March 06, 2017 / 2,405 views

God hasn't abandoned me. I say this because am still challenged by worldly desires and my pursuit of real love, from Jesus. I have always lived in fear, anxiety and an eagerness to acquire what my friends have. I look at myself and wonder what am lacking. Why am i not blessed to their capacity? My ex dumped me a day before my birthday, I couldn't believe it because, this man, was...

Scoring In Exam Is Essential, But More Essential Is Contentment With Result

By Amol Lanke on March 06, 2017 / 3,492 views

I first of all wish the students a very special exam season, may the studies you did and the hard work channelised, give you the optimum desired results. Exam isn't confined just for students, everyone in his/her life at every stage encounters challenges, those are exams in equal form, maybe an appraisal season or goal setting and working towards its achievement. Life has turned to...

By Harsha on March 06, 2017 / 5,482 views

Listen to your heart and live accordingly (part -2) We let go of the life, what we have planned for, and try to accept the one that is ahead of us. Fear paralyses everyone from living their dream life. Pain is temporary, if you forget this, pain will take the place of your success, and it permanently let you down. There is no royal road to achieve anything. Definitely you will get hurt many times,...

You Have To Steer

By Joseph J. Mazzella on March 04, 2017 / 6,104 views

When I was a boy we used to live across the road from a big hill with huge Oak trees growing out of it. When Winter would arrive and thick, heavy snow would fall my two brothers would grab their sleds and head over to the hill for a day of fun. I remember watching them with envy because I was still too small to go sledding. Finally, one Winter I was deemed big enough and joined my brothers as they carried...

When life gives you a hundred reasons to break down and cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile and laugh. Nothing is quite as beautiful as someone who has survived losing everything and still has a tender heart. Don't close the book when bad things happen in your life, just turn the page and begin a new chapter. At the end of the day, all you need is hope...

Everywhere

I have always believed that reading books can expand the mind, touch the heart, and enrich the soul. They can also cause your imagination to do some funny things at times. I can remember several years ago reading a book where the hero went through several tragedies and at one point in the midst of his pain and torment cried out: “Where is Love?”. At that moment in my imagination I leapt into the...

Your acts of kindness and mercy is not a favor to G_d that would merit a reward or blessing but should be treated as payment for your past transgressions and as a form of gratitude to the past blessings He has bestowed upon you. It is your gratitude through your acts of kindness that will open the windows of heaven for your blessings. Let your motives of kindness be moved by your...

Lifelong Learning Matters

By Glory Fu on February 22, 2017 / 7,003 views

Is it necessary to learn when we are 50s, 60s or even 70s? Most people consider when they get retired, they are supposed to be completely laidback, do something fun, or hang around. However, the truth is that learning makes us vigorous, and self-fulfilled; it’s particularly important to the elderly. Through learning, we know how to think, how to memorize, how to ask questions and even how to...

Death Is On The Corner

By Sonia Kaur on February 22, 2017 / 4,657 views

You never know when you have to die, not even in the morning of your last day, no even the last minute of your life and we have forgotten death even I have also forgotten. Whenever we talk about death life is also mentioned, when we talk about life one question arises in my mind that are we truly living or just passing the days of life? “Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what...

Late Valentine

By Terri Rimmer on February 20, 2017 / 5,805 views

Stopped off at Kroger and as usual this time of year, saw the Girl Scouts selling cookies as I have about 3-4 times this month but can't buy any. I was a scout so it always touches my heart. This time when I was going in one of them was really hamming it up trying to sell cookies which was so cute. As I was headed out with my stuff, I was behind a guy who was buying a single red rose and I thought,...

Just Need To Tell Someone, I've Been Sober For A Year!

By HangryHangryHedgehog on February 18, 2017 / 2,090 views

I am proud of myself. Celebrating with cinnamon bears, feelgood movies on netflix and the pets are rolling in food comas from treats. I didn't really tell anyone. I went cold turkey. I was spiraling down a black hole of depression and anxiety. I felt like I was losing my mind. It was hard, but I've done it. I am going to keep going as well. This was a lifetime...

Smile

Today my 14 year old son and I held a yard sale. He was reluctant and stayed on his phone most of the time. Then a mother and daughter came up, clearly troubled, and the mother told me her daughter was diagnosed with cancer 3 days ago. Her daughter asked my son how much a stuffed bear was. My son looked right at her and said "give me the biggest smile you got." The little girl gave that...

You'll Love Me Later

By Joseph J. Mazzella on February 16, 2017 / 3,132 views

I was in a local store recently when I saw something that opened a window into my soul and let in a little more light. I had just picked up some shampoo and was headed to the pet supplies to get some more dog food for my furry friends. I decided to take a shortcut through one of the toy aisles. Blocking my way, however, was a young father and his four year old daughter. The little girl was pleading with her...

From Homeless To Hired In Less Than 6 Months

By Tanni on February 14, 2017 / 2,210 views

'D' was hired to do a job but disappeared with the money for supplies. Tried contacting him through people, phone, home. Nothing. Chalked it up to a hard lesson learned. After a week and half, 'D' shows up with supplies. He spent most of the money but said he was ready to go to work. No apologies or explanation. Anger was my first inner reaction but forgiveness was the action. Come to find out...
