As the year rushes towards its end here in the mountains of my home, changes are everywhere. The sunlight suddenly seems scarce. The blue skies are more gray. The leaves have fallen and the trees are bare. The grass has gone yellow and snow will be coming soon. The winds have turned bitter making my coat a necessity. Inside my home it is time for thick socks and warm sweaters. Hot soups have replaced...

When people hear about my past and see what I go through, I'm usually told I'm strong. I've always had a hard time believing this. Today that changed and I now believe it. My first born son, newly four years old, was having a tantrum. I was annoyed and wanted to just walk away. But I thought to myself I would try to handle the situation differently this time. I hugged him and asked...

Once, a professor kept a chair at a certain distance on the stage, in front of the audience.

The first person of the middle row replied,...

I was about to go out the door of the Memory Care Center when Naomi, one of my favorite residents, asked if we could sing a song. Singing is something I did a lot of while I work at the Memory Care Center. I found that singing had a calming effect on the residents. Naomi suggested her usual song, "Amazing Grace". We were singing "Amazing Grace" as we walked into the family room...

I Choose To Sing

By Joseph J. Mazzella on November 23, 2015 / 4,372 views

God loves us all so much and He speaks to us in more ways than we can imagine. Just the other day I was driving my son to the part-time job he has at a sheltered workshop for the disabled. The sky was a dark grey. A cold rain was pouring down. The world seemed silent and sad with both people and animals taking shelter from the storm. I turned on the car radio for a little music to lift my spirits. When I did,...

I'm always the negative person in our distro. I always commit mistakes and even though I tried my best, still it's not enough. I hate myself for being so stupid and I want to give up and be long gone. One day, when I had a coaching session with my coach to tackle about the things that I'm doing wrongly.

Truth Triumphs

Truth always triumphs and stands like unflinching tower. Once there was a Jackal in the forest wandering for food, but could not get the stomach full meal. Every animal in the forest had very menial treatment towards the Jackal as it was weak and could not hunt for its food. But the jackal wondered about the tiger's popularity, every animal was afraid of the Big Cat. It hunts effortlessly and...

Ignore What People Say

By Sonia Kaur on November 18, 2015 / 6,786 views

People always talk negativity though it is related to our skills, our relationship, about illness. Very few people talk about positivity. Can people judge you when they don't know what is in your heart. You yourself is a better judge so judge yourself by analysing your thoughts and actions. Don't spend your life in proving yourself. When you accept yourself then you don't need others...

Sometimes love is not enough, sometimes we have to believe in ourselves for the love to grow, and to expand. His power is immense but it can only exist in our self-love and to the love of the entire humanity. There are no terrorists or victims. There are only human beings in the wrong place at the wrong time, following their own way of life in their own comprehension of the world. It will...

It was 2009, on a beautiful summer afternoon in Goldersgreen. Giggling with my dear friend in a Chinese restaurant, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see who wanted my attention. There he was- my waiter and he said "sorry lady, the gentleman over there just paid your bill". With mouth agape, I looked backwards and there he was, my gentle giant with a heart of gold. I stood up...

I've met some really interesting people in my life. Each person has a story and I've learned so much by listening to them. The other day I was talking to a guy at Planet Fitness. Jim* shared with me a few things about his life that were pretty surprising. However, what stood out to me the most was what happened to him after he had a heart attack.
