By Joseph J. Mazzella on December 22, 2015 / 4,521 views

The best Christmas gift I ever got was both early and late. My first born child came into this world on December 16th, nine days before Christmas. He was supposed to be a Thanksgiving baby, however, so when my wife went into labor 3 weeks late he had to be delivered by an emergency Caesarean section. My first word when I saw him wasn't even a word but a sigh of relief, love, and joy. My early Christmas...

A Reminder

After a long day at work I made a trip up to the local Walgreens in my neighborhood. As I got out of my car I noticed a guy with worn clothing, slouched over and he was taking the last drags off of his cigarette. I stopped off and asked if there was anything I could get him. Shocked he looked up and said "a roast beef sandwich if they have one?" They had everything but roast...

My Mom came from a family of 14 children. Christmastime wasn't always the best. However, there was a man, who went out of his way, to make the day special.

Four Marks

By William Engel on December 22, 2015 / 4,096 views

I was living in Florida, staring into the mirror like I do every morning. I was looking at the four distinct marks in my shoulder, the marks of fingernails recently being pressed into my skin. These marks, what happened to create them, still make me stare a few seconds longer when I look out over an ocean, or into a fire. I loved these marks, I wish they were scars. I was in a large group of people...

Surrounded by all the negativity in society these days, a single working mom's hope of a good man walking into her life and shaking her to her core is needless to say...non-existent.

Stop Treating Yourself Like An After Thought

By KR on December 22, 2015 / 11,368 views

My friend's mom has eaten healthy all her life. Never ever consumed alcohol or any "bad" food, exercised every day, very limber, very active, took all supplements suggested by her doctor, never went in the sun without sunscreen and when she did it was for as short a period as possible- so pretty much she protected her health with the utmost that anyone could. She is now 76 and has skin cancer,...

It was Christmas Eve. The house was decorated and the gifts were wrapped. Now we were all hustling around getting ready to go to the Christmas Eve service at church. The TV was on when I heard the news reporter announce that Dr. Norman V. Peale had died. I stopped and stared at the TV. I knew Dr. Peale was in his 90's and had lived a long time, but I was still feeling sad to hear the...

A Person Of Substance

I am a person of substance. Don't judge me by my looks or my clothes. I am more than what meets the eye. Define me by the tough battles I fight each day. Define me by my courage to face them as I rise above no matter how difficult. My life is not glorious and I don’t have medals to flaunt but my biggest trophy is my heart full of love and compassion. I value love, friendships, honesty and trust. I am...

Let's Deal

By Makayla Banton on December 17, 2015 / 4,732 views

I started high school in September 2010. I knew it was going to be the longest four years of my life. The things I heard about high school were that the Juniors and Seniors would stuff the lower classmen into lockers, steal their lunch money, and taunt them all the time. I remember thinking to myself that I wanted to be noticed and popular. But of course, I became popular for the wrong reasons. I got sucked...

Looking back at my past, there are many things I wish I could have rewritten or done better. But the one thing I always regretting not doing, was simply being who I truly am.

I'e often thought about what it is that makes people happy—what one has to do in order to achieve happiness. 1- First and foremost is good health.
