To Be Loved

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 26, 2020 / 1,471 views

I was in college and was sleeping deeply in my dorm room bed after a rough day of classes. Suddenly, I heard the door open and light from the hallway streamed in. My best friend and roommate was standing there unsteadily. His girlfriend had broken up with him earlier that day and he had spent the evening downtown in a bar trying to drown his sorrows with 13 whiskey sours. I got up and helped him to climb up...

Age Limit On Success

By Achie Kubhayi on May 23, 2020 / 1,137 views

I am writing this piece after reading a tweet from a celebrity that was encouraging young people to take their lives seriously between the age of 18 and 25 because (as she suggested) at the age of 30, anyone must have something to show as an achievement. I felt the inspiration but I further felt an unnecessary pressure as soon as she brought the 30 years age in tweet, I felt like it is the root...

My Views On Confidence

By Glory Fu Yu-Liang on May 20, 2020 / 1,334 views

What is confidence? Many people define confidence through materialistic images, such as one's job, money, social status, education, or features. My views on confidence have nothing to do with outward appearances. On the contrary, I believe that confidence comes from within. In other words, confidence is a positive attitude within us that makes an outward reflection through our...

Appearances

I had been retired for five years; the first two years I volunteered a lot; the next two years doing part-time work; and the fifth year I spent completely at home with my husband and dog. No work, no make-up, no schedule! Cosmetics had especially been a "need" of mine (I've been cursed with "allergy shiner"...dark circles under red-rimmed eyes!) Nice clothes and hair styles were also...

What Has Really Made Not Only Me Happy, But Also Many Of My Neighbors, Even In Isolation

By Natalie Baker on May 16, 2020 / 1,155 views

My spiritual mentor Shakuntali Siberia once said: "Material things do not give us true happiness." I thought, "Is it really so? I love beautiful and expensive things, and they make me happy". Today I am sharing the good news about what has really made not only me happy, but also many of my neighbors, even in isolation. We live in a new, strange world. My new dress hangs in my...

I Cant Believe I Am Where I Am Now

By A Friend on May 07, 2020 / 1,609 views

I think It would be fair to say that my upbringing has not been the most typical. Without getting in to too much detail I have had A few hills to overcome. Some have been of my own making and some I have just been unlucky. I was the only child of color in the town I grew up In, This was the cause of a significant amount of ostracization and general racism growing up. My biological father was in...

God Had Other Plans

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 05, 2020 / 1,570 views

I was a Sophomore in High School and I dreamed of being a football star. During my Freshman year I had been a skinny and scrawny boy who barely weighed 120 pounds. I had played some but spent most of my time on the bench. But over the Summer I had planned to change that. I had bought a set of free weights and found a special diet that body builders used to bulk up. Drinking a lot of whole milk and lifting...

Thumbs Up On The Clouds!

By Judith Maduhu on April 30, 2020 / 1,329 views

It was a familiar hush sound of the ferry men urging people to hurry and be on board. As always, I was among the late ones (still struggling to be on time). So I managed to catch the boat and the journey began. I was from holidays heading back to work in a small beautiful island and it was one of those days when things weren't just going as I expected. I sat in a corner of the boat, cuddled up with my...

A Tale Of Two Dogs

By A Friend on April 30, 2020 / 1,695 views

In 2005 I decided to adopt a dog through my local German Shepherd Rescue. After an official meeting with the host family to see if my family would meet standards set for the adoption, we were allowed to take a beautiful 2-year-old female Shepherd home with us. She was gentle and smart as a whip! However, one day on a walk, a neighbor's dog crossed the street toward us in an aggressive manner and attacked...

Boring

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 30, 2020 / 1,202 views

I was lying in bed yesterday afternoon after a big dinner. The television had nothing on that interested me. The book I was trying to read seemed boring too. Finally I put the book on my chest, closed my eyes, and let myself drift off to sleep. Suddenly, I felt a huge, wet, tongue lick my chin, lips, and nose in one giant slurp. My eyes popped open and I saw our big, white dog, Fluffy standing there looking at...

With a broad smile on her lips, fifteen years old Sirin twisted her feet, waved her hand in dance pose, twirled with joy to show off her new painting to her mom. When she rushed to her mom, her mom raised her eyebrows with eyes wide open, spoke in a hushed tone, 'Shh…honey.. don't shout. Right now I am busy with an important talk. I will see it. Just wait for some time,...

Utopia!

By Anjali on April 29, 2020 / 730 views

Once I wrote few words in Internet forum…. ‘I was overwhelmed with joy when I called people across the world to make friendship. And I got a huge response. We joined, talked, gossiped, and then took an oath that we would change the world! We were connected so fast without having any land or air tickets. We became closer and closer. Slowly but steadily we made a group of young adults,...

The Precious Gift

By Lettie on April 22, 2020 / 1,931 views

When I was in my 30's and newly married, I followed my husband to his native Japan. His mother lived in a small town where a son bringing home his American wife was unheard of. Japanese households were (in)famous for their myriad of rules. Not only what slippers were for which room - and in which rooms none were allowed - but also, at mealtime what foods to eat and in which order. But my elderly...

Growing Younger

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 20, 2020 / 1,659 views

I was about to shave this morning when I caught my reflection in the mirror. There was no doubt about it. My body was growing older. My formerly thick hair which used to be brown with a touch of gray was now gray with a touch of brown. It was hard to see on top too with so little of it left there. My forehead wrinkles had become permanent and when I smiled a hundred more curled up around my eyes and mouth. I...

Covid19 Is The Best Thing That Has Ever Happened To Me

Not sure this is the right place but I lost my job due to the lockdown. Because of that I've been online searching for jobs. Today I got a callback for my dream job as a park ranger and I landed it!!! I seriously cant stop screaming and dancing. I get to bring my dog to stay on site. I dont have to pay rent. I will be outside 100% of the time. F***. I'm so incredibly happy. Thank...
