Empty Inside

Have you ever felt empty inside, like there was a hole in your soul? For most of my adult life, I did. It didn't matter what I'd do or what new thing I'd try after the newness wore off and the excitement was gone, I still felt like something was missing. I can't say I had this feeling constantly, but it would come often enough for me to know that there was something that just was not right....

I wanted to share my story with you, the story of my wife's unconditional love for me!

Yesterday, I was lying on the ground outside on my driveway with my 6 month-old daughter. There was a calm breeze and beautiful blue skies. I usually take my phone everywhere with me, but I left it inside. There were no distractions. As I held my daughter on my lap, I felt so at peace watching the beautiful world around me. I watched birds gliding high in the sky, while others chirped nearby. For...

By Debbie on October 13, 2015 / 6,290 views

My husband and I are poor. The assumption most people make is that we're stupid, some even say it openly. We've both just had sh*t luck and are working to improve our situation. I'm not sure of my real age, when my parents and came to America they modified my birth certificate. I'm somewhere between the ages of 22 to 25. Legally 22 but everything points to me being older. My social...

What's Next

I had come to that point in life where you start wondering whether you are of any use to anyone in this life, where you now seem like a burden to everyone around. Its like you just a bag of negativity, a mountain of failure, a perfect example of what not to be in life. You make everyone around you feel down, your parents start looking at you with that "look", you are always fighting with your...

Problem Of Pain

You may have noticed that the books you really love are bound together by a secret thread. You know very well what is the common quality that makes you love them, though you cannot put it into words: but most of your friends do not see it at all, and often wonder why, liking this, you should also like that.

I Want To Fly

By Joseph J. Mazzella on October 08, 2015 / 2,995 views

When my kids were young we bought them two pet cockatiels. These beautiful, white birds would whistle and chirp all through the day. We had a big cage for them with perches, toys, and a mirror, plus food and water dishes. We couldn't let them loose in the house because of our dogs and cats, but they seemed content in their cage or so I thought. One day in the Springtime when the sun was...
