Today I was taking my puppy outside to go to the bathroom while I was at work and there was a couple walking out of the courthouse. I work right across the street from the courthouse and am allowed to take my dog to work with me. They came around the corner and saw the puppy and both of them immediately had their spirits raised. The happiness the puppy brought them was noticeable. Little after petting her, they...

I had a wonderful job at a phenomenal company. I had flexibility, an understanding boss, and a high paying salary. I loved my job. But after 6 years of expending myself on the job, trying out various professional roles, I felt that I’d grown beyond the fixed positions available at the company. I’m not going lie, having a lot of money is nice. Money can buy you things, nice things. However, the cliché is true...

My younger sister and I were pregnant at the same time. She unfortunately gave her son up for adoption, being unable to care for him.

A new student was assigned to his class and placed right next to him. My son told me the student's name and that he was new. It took me...

They say everything has a silver lining.... well my fiance and I got to put that to the test a few months ago when our house was broken into. A decent amount of material things were taken right out from under us, which was, of course, upsetting to say the least, but the two of us were also having a hard time rationalizing how this could have happened to us, where to go from there, blah blah blah... our home, our...

Earlier this week, I was eating lunch with a friend and saw an elderly couple having lunch a few tables away.  They looked so happy and it gave me hope about future relationships and I got this great idea to make a difference. I asked the server what their check was up to and since it was under $20, I went and paid for it. I did not want them to know while I was there, so I left soon after.  I felt...

Well, you never know where you are going to find the person of your dreams, but know this, it can happen when you least expect it.

After arriving, we quickly realized that we were the oldest people there, most were...

I'm in college, and at the beginning of last quarter I wrote a paragraph of academic goals that I wanted to accomplish. I had been on the 'Dean's List' several quarters in a row, and was very close to getting a 4.0 several times. I wrote that I finally wanted to get all As this quarter, and began writing a little 4.0 at the top of all of my assignments. I tried to battle off my stress and negativity and in the end...
