Your Mother, Your First Home

By Life Lessons on September 17, 2015 / 6,211 views

Your Mother is always with you. She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street, she's the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you pick, the fragrance of life itself. She's the cool hand on your brow when you're not feeling well, she's your breath in the air on a cold winter's day. She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep, the...

Being Real Is Beautiful

By Rachel C. Lewis on September 15, 2015 / 6,490 views

I love being horribly straightforward. I love sending text messages and telling people I love them and telling people they are absolutely magical humans and I cannot believe they really exist. I love saying, "Kiss me harder," and "You're a good person," and, "You brighten my day." I live my life as straight-forward as possible. Because one day, I might...

Life is changing every day, we only realise it after six months when we look back. Everyday is unique and with new challenges.

Paradise

By Joseph J. Mazzella on September 14, 2015 / 4,990 views

I dreamed I was in paradise the other day. It was so beautiful. Golden-white light bathed everything. Rainbows filled the sky without a drop of rain. The trees stood tall and strong. Some of their leaves were green, others were red, and still others were yellow. Birds flew from tree to tree and their sweet songs filled the air. There was a peaceful music coming from everything and the bird songs blended into...

Each month Hospice Volunteer Reflections are shared on the Windows Within Project. Hospice Volunteer, Sky Yaesayer, shared this lovely story in her own words: "I have a great story; it was so profound. I had a patient who was a huge Cincinnati Reds fan and even though I was allowed to take him outside, we never went outside because there was always a baseball game on. Even though there were...

Get Back Up

By Mad Johnson on September 12, 2015 / 4,674 views

Hi my name is Mad and everybody would call me fat and I didn't like it at all. I know this isn't right by the only person who doesn't call me fat is my mom, but everyone else in my family calls me fat. It always mad me cry because I thought that I would never be skinny. That's when my mom put on a song called "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten. That song inspired me to get back up on my...

Talk About A Dog Day Indeed

By Jack V. on September 10, 2015 / 1,725 views

I used to deliver pizzas during a summer between schools in a small hick town of Texas. This place was in the middle of the desert and the heat was usually glaring to the point you'd see waves coming off the road. The sun was bright and shining, not a single cloud in the sky. It had to be somewhere close to 4 pm. I had just started my evening shift. I was driving through a random subdivision...

Never Underestimate The Power Of A Hug

By Unknown on September 10, 2015 / 6,564 views

Hugs are powerful. They can be the comfort you need at the end of a long frustrating day, the impetus to express your grief, a display of complete happiness. They can communicate "I have missed you" as much as "you will be missed." They can mean the difference between feeling connected or isolated, between hope and despair. Never underestimate the...

Who Are You?

By Mantu Babedi on September 09, 2015 / 6,301 views

When someone asks you; who are you? simply say: I'm a human being. I'm one who deserves to be alive, a person who deserves respect. I'm a person who deserves to be loved, I'm a person who deserves to be here in this world. I am a person who deserves to be happy. And when they ask, who are you? simply say: I'm a person born...

Why Are We Here?

By Joseph J. Mazzella on September 08, 2015 / 5,382 views

When I was a boy we lived 4 miles from town and most of my friends. As a result I ended up playing by myself a lot. I didn't mind the solitude, however. I enjoyed riding my bike for hours, swimming in the river, and taking long walks in the woods. It felt good being alone with my own thoughts and my own imagination. Sometimes I even pondered a few of the big questions we all have. I would think, "What...

When Did You Laugh Aloud?

By Naveen on September 07, 2015 / 5,587 views

Do you remember on top of your mind when you laughed aloud with great fun? At least do you remember when did you smile? If yes, how times per day you smile? In this busy global world, we are too much pressurized in to our work that we don't even remember to come out of them spend some quality time on our personal things. Remember, you didn't laugh or smile meaning, you are not...

I am enough. I am full of sparkle and of compassion. I genuinely want to make the world a better place. I love hard. I practice kindness. I am not afraid of the truth. I am loyal, adventurous, supporting, and surprising. I am enough. I make mistakes, but I own them and I learn from them. And sometimes I make a lot of mistakes. But I am...

The Treasures Of Heaven

By Joseph J. Mazzella on September 03, 2015 / 1,955 views

Several years ago I was driving to my daughter’s college to bring her home for the Summer break. It was a long trip so I stopped at a little gas station halfway there to refuel. I pulled up to the pumps behind a beat up old car. It was at least 20 years old. The metal was rusting, the tires were balding, and the muffler was held up by a coat hanger. A young teenage girl sat in the front passenger seat...

It was so windy, it seemed as if the wind would blow away every possible thing nearby! Sarah closed the door, locked it tightly inside, which was banging continuously. She looked at the window. The trees out side her apartment, were almost touching the ground in one swing. It looked as if the trees would be uprooted from the ground. She was really panicked, maybe the glass window would be broken down into...
