When you live your life for the purpose of other people's approval...who's life are you living? When you dress, talk, and act in a certain way just to make someone "like you"...you're not free. The problem is many of us seek the approval of other people, and as a result we live a life according to other people's standards instead of our own. It is obvious when someone is doing...

What CKY Has Taught Me

By SeanEboy on April 27, 2016 / 3,451 views

It has been a while since I have found inspiration to write. It is too easy to write without having real perspective or purpose thus creating something bland without any true insight. Recently I have been running into late-teens-early-20’s nostalgia. College, friends lost, things I should’ve done and others I probably shouldn’t have. Though this is not a unique phenomenon, I recently read an...

The Beauty Of The Soul

I was walking into the store today to buy a bar of soap. I had no idea why I had forgotten it on my regular shopping trip but my soap bar was now down to the size of a quarter so I had to get one. I wasn’t in a hurry so instead of heading right to it, I found myself walking among the aisles amazed at all the products. There were several brands of soap and bottles of liquid soap too. There were shampoos...

"The world is like a ride at an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it, you think it's real, because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round and it has thrills and chills and it's very brightly colored and it's very loud. And it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question:...

You Are Dead

One day you are going to die. It might not be today, it might not be a year from now. It will happen, though. The problem is that some of you are already dead. You died the moment you decided what ever lesser standard that is killing you is what you will settle for. You committed spiritual suicide the second you ceased the progress or drive that was previously sending you to your dreams. When you...

Baseball Sisters

By A.J. Richard on April 22, 2016 / 2,694 views

My short term goal was easy. I aimed to be well conditioned and prepared to play baseball respectably at fantasy camp. The long term goal was more difficult. What kind of long term goal would be realistic for a 44 year-old just getting started actually playing baseball? Eventually, I decided my long term goal was to play in a women's baseball tournament. I had no idea my long term goal would be...

After battling health problems for over two years my son’s beloved cat, Dusty passed away. I held her in my arms as she breathed her last breath and with a heavy heart carried her gently up to the woods behind our home to bury her. As the days passed it seemed strange not hearing my son, JJ talking to Dusty in his room. He handled her loss better than me, though. His beautiful, simple,...

Don't let anyone bring you down so low as to hate them. Release them from the hold they have on you and continue on with peace in your heart.

Strive to be the best person you can possibly be, be strong, and walk away. Holding on to bitterness and...

We spoke and I assured her that I will do everything I can to ensure her granddaughter is resting...

By Rick on April 14, 2016 / 2,727 views

Walking up to my friends house I came upon his cat eating a very young bird. I was horrified and chased the cat off. Countless small feathers and blood were scattered all around. It's back and neck were all bare and bloody with bones showing. Blood flowed out of a fang mark on it's neck. Yes, I know it's hard for compassionate people to hear the details, but stick with me. It's...
