I have been sick since Tuesday, causing me to miss work. I moved out here to a new apartment where I am after surviving homelessness and DV. I head back to work tomorrow and I'm excited, even though it's a two hour walk from me, I'm just trying to continue to pick up the pieces to my life on my own. I ran...

A while back my mom got turned around driving in an area she didn’t know well, she isn't good with Google map or anything of that sort, for whatever reason it all hit her at once. She pulled into a parking lot, got overwhelmed, and called the number on a nearby business sign just to ask for directions because she was too flustered...

I walked into the store recently to buy another week’s worth of groceries for me and my sons. As I went through the doors I saw a man struggling to separate two shopping carts stuck together. When he got them apart he pushed the first one to me with a smile. I thanked him and started going up and down the aisles. They were...

I took my dog to the park and we posted up at a respectful distance from a young man who was already there. After about ten minutes he gets up and moves further away, then starts absolutely wailing. I mean like full body sobs, we all know the kind. I’m trying to mind my business while also wondering if I should...

I had an emergency surgery. When I woke up, I was unable to walk and had to undergo 4 months of occupational and physical rehab. When I was finally able to return to work, I faced quite a challenge. I had to use a walker at first and then a cane. My office was across a very large building. However, there is a service entrance that...

Giving To Yourself

I have been writing for many years now and over that time I have gotten a lot of letters and e-mails of appreciation from people my simple words have touched. One time, though, I got something that surprised me. It was a pre-paid card with $250.00 dollars on it. The person who sent it said she wanted to do something nice for me since my...

Several strangers helped me get home safe in Nashville

A couple years ago I was visiting Nashville and went out on Broadway. Around 1 a.m. I was way more dr*nk than I should have been. While getting into a taxi near the stadium I dropped my phone without realizing it. I couldn’t even remember what hotel I was staying at. Eventually the taxi driver dropped me off somewhere and I...

To me this is love

My husband noticed that no one was eating the oranges. I said that I think I subconsciously avoid them because I have eczema on my hands and peeling them hurts the little cuts. The next day this was in the fridge. He proceeded to peel 6 oranges for me every Sunday to last the week, and has continued to do so...

A Beautiful Bond Between Kids and Seniors

My late mother spent her final years in a wonderful assisted living facility. Pricey (private pay, no Medicare) but they ran the place like a resort, not a nursing home. Very near the facility is a daycare. With parental permission, the daycare would make “field trips” around each major holiday to visit with the...

So my 3 year old daughter and I were on our way to the park

On the way to the park we pass over a small bridge that my daughter calls the troll bridge. This bridge is about 20 feet over a small stream. On this day there were a bunch of angsty teens hanging out both on and under the bridge. Right at the entrance to the bridge is a girl who is doodling in a notebook. She had...

I've been dealing with car issues recently. My alternator went out and after I had it maybe 3 weeks, that one went out as well. It's been repaired again. Anyway, my coworkers were incredible in giving me rides to and from work so I didn't have to take any time off. My mobile mechanic even dropped me off and...

I saw a sweet moment between residents at work the other day

I work in a memory care facility. Sometimes the residents get upset for no reason. One woman, who is normally incredibly sweet and funny and cheerful, had a bad day last week. She just started crying out of nowhere. Like, full on, breaks-your-heart-to-hear crying. One of my coworkers was sitting with her, trying to...

Last month, my dad passed away after a long and courageous battle with stage IV colon cancer. My mom, who was his primary caretaker, was left with thousands of dollars worth of bills. She had his chemo, radiation, surgery, and hospitalization bills. If you live in the U.S., you KNOW how expensive those bills are. She had to pay for his...

This was during my study abroad to Japan, and I was wearing a yukata I had bought a week earlier for a summer festival. However, not even three adults and a YouTube video could figure out how the obi (long cloth “belt”) was supposed to be tied. After a day of trying desperately to fix it, and my yukata splaying out in...

My inheritance

My mom worked so hard her entire life. At first it was to get herself through college as a single mom and then it was to try to help me get through med school. About a decade ago we got into our first fight. She was 70 and hadn’t retired. She didn’t enjoy her job and she had always talked about how she wants to travel...

I stopped to fuel up after my three hour drive before doing the last 10 minutes home. A man in 4WD in front also fueled up and cleaned his windshield. As he went to put the bucket back, he said, "Would you like your windshield cleaned too?" I gaped a bit then smiled and said, "Yes please that would be...
