We Have Just One Life To Live

By Glory Fu on October 07, 2022 / 2,248 views

In this uncertain time, can we still control the controllable? I lost my job during the pandemic's outbreak in 2020. Not knowing what to do for my next step, I just waited for the pandemic to end. For nearly 6 months, I had been living an aimless life and felt my inner strength leaking as time passed. Until one day, while reading the Bible, I came across Proverbs 24:10, which says, " If you...

Driving Into The Sunset

By Joseph J. Mazzella on October 06, 2022 / 1,851 views

While getting a degree in English Literature had seemed a great idea in college it didn’t prove to be a wise choice when searching for work after I graduated. I was a young father with a wife and baby at home and another on the way. The only work I was able to find was as a busboy at a restaurant and I was barely making enough to eke out a living. This would get even worse one day when for no reason I...

On The Other Side, Waiting At The Back Door

About 6 years ago, my life changed forever. So many beautiful surprises unfolded after a tragic Moment and God showed me some powerful truths. I’ll share that with you now. My mom lost her husband, my step dad Bill to liver cancer.

'You Look Really Pretty Today'

By Mau on October 05, 2022 / 1,796 views

My 8 year old daughter was causally walking through the shops as she does most days telling random ladies “excuse me but you look really pretty today.” One lady in particular who looked to be having a bad day turned to her and said “thank u I needed to hear that today. “ to which my daughter smiles and replied “I’m only seeing the truth!” she made me very...

Billie Eilish Tickets

My daughter was denied entry to Billie Eilish with her 11 year old autistic daughter because she bought fake tickets. A generous family gave her 2 free tickets because they bought too many. The stars were aligned. Thanking those beautiful people from the bottom of our hearts. My grand daughter would not have understood if they didn't get to...

I Made A Boy In A Certain Major Telecom Cry Today

By Sharon on October 04, 2022 / 1,302 views

I made a boy in a certain major telecom cry today. And not in the way you might think. I’d heard how staff are being abused with people literally queuing just to tear strips off them so walking past the retail shop in Kawana saw they were having a quiet moment (there’s been lots of people in there the precious couple of times I walked past) I popped in and gave the young staffer a smile...

A Man With No Shoes

By Leann From Socal on October 04, 2022 / 2,046 views

This morning I went to a local drive thru to pick up breakfast for my son. As I approached the drive thru I saw a younger man sitting on the sidewalk with no shoes, no socks just bare feet. A woman was offering him some food, after receiving my sons food I drove around to the parking lot close to where the man was. I had packed a bag a couple weeks prior for a homeless man I had seen down by the...

So I Had One Of Those Moments Today That I've Always Dreaded

By Marisa on September 30, 2022 / 1,435 views

So I had one of those moments today that I've always dreaded - putting petrol in the car and then realizing that your wallet is not in your handbag. I rang my husband to get the card number so I could manually put it in, but the manager said they couldn't (or maybe wouldn't) put it through manually. My phone, which I could normally use to transfer the money into their account, dropped...

Behind The Disguise

By Joseph J. Mazzella on September 30, 2022 / 2,206 views

My two adult sons still live with me. Both of them have Autism and other mental disabilities. My oldest boy works a few days a week at a local sheltered workshop. His younger brother, however, isn’t as high functioning. He speaks only a few words and stays home with me full time so my daughter and I can care for him. The other day I was walking into a fast food restaurant holding his finger so...

Wholesome Barber

So I'm getting married on Wednesday and my barber was the first person to cut my hair for my first date with my future wife. 4 years later I booked online and saw he wasn’t working so I decided to get my hair cut by someone else who worked there. Super bummed about it because I’ve been going to him for 4 years but I’m pressed for time so I had to get it cut today. I rock up to...

Two Moths

By Joseph J. Mazzella on September 26, 2022 / 1,847 views

My Mom would have been 85 years old this year if she had lived. She gave birth to me 3 weeks after her 30th birthday but passed away when she was only 55. It was heartbreaking losing her when I was only 25 years old. I felt like I had just started to grow up and get to know Mom as a real person and not just a mother. I had hoped for many years of loving friendship with her but it was not to be. Now...

Giving Feels So Good

Don’t usually post but yesterday at our show we had a pre paid show rides card which still had credit when we were leaving so our daughter who is 13 years old gave it to a large family group . They were delighted as we were. On the car trip home we all got to say our favourite thing about the show. Our daughter said giving the family the show ride card was the best part...

By Nicole on September 23, 2022 / 1,826 views

My daughter, Grade 2, is the kindest person I have ever met. On the last day of Term 3, she was playing on the school ground with a friend. She noticed on two separate occasions that there was a child upset on their own. She went up to them to make sure they're ok. She said she couldn't play when she saw someone upset. Her friend was like, it's the last day of school we should be...

God Surprised Me

By Kay Heitsch on September 20, 2022 / 1,985 views

When we moved back to Michigan, I looked up a friend from high school I had lost touch with online. I was surprised that Vicki only lived a few miles from me. I found her phone number and called. It wasn't long, and we were back together. From that day on, we stayed in contact. I spent a lot of time at the lake with her and her husband, Gary. Almost every day, we sent each other text messages....

By Sharon on September 19, 2022 / 1,818 views

Tonight I went to our local and a couple were there trying to have dinner and their baby was crying. I looked over at the mum frantically trying to quieten the baby and thought to myself as a Nana whose been there before with my own children, should I help? A total stranger? Well, it got the better of me and I went over to the parents and offered to take their child for a walk in the prom, in the...
