Why To Love God

By Sonia Kaur on June 15, 2015 / 2,588 views

God is omnipresent. Everything is under his control. He is truth. We realize the worth of God when we are in hard days and feel that we are helpless and only god can help us out. God is the best listener, he listens us patiently without interruption our all prayers, foolish talks. He talks with us through our intuitions, messages, dreams etc. God is generous and compassionate. He takes...

One Of My Students Made Me Cry

By Teacher on June 12, 2015 / 2,223 views

I teach in a brilliant school in the UK - not a private school, but somewhere the kids are almost universally excellent. I realised that something was wrong very quickly with you. You were once a happy, radiant girl. You were top of the school academically, friendly, popular. Even now, in your last year of school, you had dreams of being a doctor. But every now and again I'd see your...

Be The Candle

By Bob Dailey on June 12, 2015 / 2,818 views

There’s a place in Baja, on the Sea of Cortez side, about 100 miles south of San Felipe called Gonzaga Bay. You can drive there pretty easily (by Baja standards) nowadays. But, 30 years ago, it was quite an adventure to get there. Your reward for all that off road adventure (other than the journey itself)? An off-the-grid community of small “houses” on a beautiful bay with whatever supplies...

Second Chances

By Joseph J. Mazzella on June 11, 2015 / 2,806 views

I was in fifth grade and about to take a science test. Since first grade I had always been good at school. I loved to read and remembered things easily. Simple math was a breeze for me and I always did well on tests. When it came to fifth grade science, however, I was struggling. I couldn't seem to understand it no matter how hard I tried. I was scared. Mom and Dad had always been so proud of my good...

Think Of Fear As Your Friend

By Papa Cado on June 10, 2015 / 2,485 views

Life was so good, so simple, when I was a child. Mom was born in Montgomery, Alabama, and Dad was from Los Angeles. They met when he was in the Coast Guard, stationed in Mobile. Dad loved Mom and the South like crazy. So after they married, we lived in Mobile. When I was five, we moved into a small house right off Mobile Bay. I think the name of the street was Dearborn. We lived across...

A True Story

By Anjali Mohapatra on June 09, 2015 / 2,762 views

Sometimes, we become so emotional in our life that we interpret the existence of God in a wrong way. I do believe that God always leads us in the right path, but unfortunately more than half of our life time, we become blind with greediness, power and money. I always try my best to carry the positive attitude, but still then I lose my track sometimes and do wrong things. Anyways, I want to share one of my own...

Trucks And Momma Ducks

By Kellan on June 09, 2015 / 1,910 views

While driving into work this morning, I came up on one of the great big FedEx trucks - the double trailer kind - stopped in the right hand lane. No blinkers, no turn signal, nothing. I thought he had broken down. There was a sedan in the left lane and it came to a stop as well. I had the windows open and I could hear the truck driver very, very softly blowing the air horn. I was so confused! Then I saw them....

The Young Guy Who Didn't Get The Job

By AJ on June 08, 2015 / 7,084 views

Steven knows he's a good but not great web designer and is about to go on an interview at a marketing firm in the city. He prepares his resume and goes over the checklist needed to make a good first impression. Steven puts on his suit, says a prayer and leaves for the train. As he gets into the tall office building, Steven looks in awe as all of his expectations were met. He is appointed the 3rd opening in...

Cleaning Can Wait

By Stephanie on June 06, 2015 / 1,947 views

My son Christopher did something that really hit home today. As he is laying there watching a movie while I'm tending to his baby sister, I ask him if he would like to play Wii with me when the baby takes a nap. He looks over and says, "Really?" as this is something I rarely do because I always seem to use nap time to clean something, cook, etc. plus the fact that I really hate video...

What Happens When You Fall In Love Too Often, And Too Fast

By Kevin Wood on June 06, 2015 / 7,537 views

There I was again. My back pressed against the wall. My head hung so low it looked like my neck might snap. The weight of lost love bared down again. Why could I never learn? Why did I always have to fall in love so quickly? My old belief was that love was simply unicorns and butterflies. It was only pleasant - pleasurable, and should work, without any work. This was naive and...

Beyond The Surface

By Pooja on June 04, 2015 / 6,016 views

So many unsaid feelings, So many unsaid thoughts, So many unsaid emotions, Such are our minds like a deep ocean Because there is so much beyond the surface. We laugh with the people we love, We cry for the people we care, We spend our lives with the dearest ones, Still we wait till losing them to realize their real worth Which makes me...

The Little Things

By Samantha T on June 04, 2015 / 6,395 views

Recently I've been enjoying going to get a sub from Subway on my way home from school, and just about every time I go it's the same man working there. I'm not exactly sure but I think he is autistic or has something along those lines but either way he's very nice. So the other day when I stopped in he asked me, as always, how my day was and then he preceded to make my sub, then just...

A Part Of God's Creation

By Joseph J. Mazzella on June 04, 2015 / 5,430 views

I was sitting in my car with the windows rolled down. My daughter had a meeting in the building in front of me and I was waiting to give her a ride home. The eighty degree day was wrapping the world in its warmth. A gentle breeze was blowing. Fat, fluffy clouds coasted lazily across the sky. The sun was washing the world with its golden light, making everything more beautiful. It sparkled off the green leaves...

To The Woman Who Tipped Me $13 On $27

By Zetterberger on June 03, 2015 / 1,890 views

We didn't have Malibu, so you ordered a sweet tea. You ordered a small and medium pizza. I brought you two small pizzas. It was my second true-blue mistake on the job. I felt like an idiot. You were wonderful and understanding, professing that it was okay. You'd order another if need be. But the pizza's came out burnt. You explained how you had been a server, completely understood it was my second...

People Are Not As They Seem

By Elaradon on June 02, 2015 / 6,861 views

I recently have had the obvious realization that people are not the same as they may appear. As someone who is different in person as I may appear to others observing from a distance, I understand this. Now I know this is the same as every other 'Don't judge a book by its cover' post on sites all over the internet, but I just want to help enforce that idea. I just want people to remember...

A Warrior Is Not What You Think

By Sitting Bull on June 01, 2015 / 13,972 views

For us, warriors are not what you think of as warriors. The warrior is not someone who fights, because no one has the right to take another's life. The warrior, for us, is one who sacrifices himself for the good of others. His task is to take care of the elderly, the defenseless, those who cannot provide for themselves, and above all, the children, the future of humanity. ~Sitting...

Duke

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 29, 2015 / 7,219 views

I was blowing the dust off of some of my Grandma's old photo albums the other day and looking at pictures of that little boy I used to be. One in particular caught my eye. I was smiling, sitting in a corner chair by an old bookcase, hugging my best friend in the whole world. That friend was my dog, Duke. Duke was a strange name for such a little dog. He couldn't have weighed more than 20...
