A Friend Indeed -
 - Jane Bullard (2,076)    
Jane Bullard   
Pal invited me to her church one seemingly uneventful Wednesday night. Raised in a Buddhist family, my Thai friend was a new Christian of a few years.
The church had a supper before the prayer service, and we sat with others at a table. Pal started to talk with a women she knew well in the... ( added 2 hours 34 minutes ago.) |

What Is The Difference Between Depression And Clinical Depression -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
I have battled with both kinds of depression, and these are my opinions. Everyone is different, and should see a doctor if they are having any of the symptoms I will be mentioning. Have you ever gone to see a movie, and walked out of the theater crying? "Brian's Song" is one of those movies, or... ( added 5 days 23 hours ago.) |

Dianne Lehmann
A woman walks up to her local 99 cent store. She has been there at least a hundred times before. She pushes on the front door to enter the shop and the door does not open.

Who Do You Consider A Friend -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
We have many "acquaintances" throughout our lives, but there are very few people special enough to be a "true friend." The requirements are selfless and exhausting at times. Acquaintances receive the old, "I'm fine" when asked how we are? A true friend gets every detail until they feel they were... ( added 13 days 23 hours ago.) |

A New Baby and the World Outside -
Ieuan Dolby (1,294)   
Ieuan Dolby
It is now two weeks since my second son was born. Time enough to settle into some sort of routine and to realise that he does in fact have a name, not " cutie" , " baby" or " it" ! For my wife and me it has been a traumatic few years, two miscarriages, a house break-in and a shift from a life in... ( added 3 days 1 hour ago.) |

Is It Wise To Protect Our Children From Emotional And Physical Pain -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
My mom was a realist. Maybe being a nurse had affected her in a way that she wasn't going to "baby" her babies. My father was an ex marine and wouldn't accept, "I can't, or I don't want to." We were innocent kids, content to play and interact among the 4 of us. If we got hurt, my mom fixed us up... ( added 6 days 23 hours ago.) |
20 Things To Ponder -
Robin Newman (478) 
Robin Newman
You cannot think 2 thoughts at once so if you are thinking happy thoughts you cannot be thinking sad, angry, miserable, jealous or grumpy ones.

We All Must Learn How To Be Alone -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
Isolation can either be devastating, or peaceful. And the emotions involved start as early as birth. We, as parents, have to do our part to soothe a baby and make them feel safe and comfortable, while they are alone in their playpen or crib. Dinner has to be made, carpets need to be vacuumed...

Do You Do Things For The Good Of All Involved -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
I don't ever remember my mother telling me to make my decisions based on "for the good of all involved." She believed in the concept, but used her own words. I wasn't introduced to this particular saying until I went into a twelve step program. I have to admit, it was a little foreign to me. And... ( added 10 days 15 hours ago.) |
Buddha: Inner Knowing of Bountiful Beauty to Build Confidence and Calm -
Jeff Brown (9,168) 
Jeff Brown
The
Buddhist believes that all are selfish at birth. It is only natural for this
infant who sees barely two feet into the distance. If you are his mother standing
still by the couch three feet away, you are a lamp. Lamps very rarely get much
consideration in anyone's life.

Over the past 40-plus years as a journalist and marketing communication consultant, I have frequently been told that I am an exceptionally good writer by teachers, friends, colleagues, and clients. But I wasn't always a good writer; in fact, I used be a very bad one.

Who Do You Think You Are -
