Celebration Of Life Over Limitations

All through my life up until now, I've controlled how to express my emotions, not because I didn't feel them, I felt them very deeply, but I certainly suppressed my inferiority and discontentment. Being a poor kid, I knew how to pretend I wasn't hungry, to act like I wasn't cold when I was freezing , and to feel like people?s words didn't hurt just because my state didn't give me the liberty to complain. My young heart was screaming up to the top of my lungs but words seemed hesitant to come out. I was mum as if the feeling never exist. There were several moments in my past life that my pride was confronted and had to convince myself to understand and give pardon although I knew things weren't right. I was tired of this negative emotion and I felt so dissatisfied. My fierce motivated me. They provoked... [Read More]

A second chance

Alex Love

05 Jan, 2014 10:40 AM

A little over a year ago, I hit what most would call rock bottom. I found myself sitting alone on my bed, tears flowing down my face, with everything in my life completely unknown. I sit up every night wondering if I deserve a second chance after what I did. I did a lot of things in my past that I am not proud of, I try to be good show everyone that I changed, nobody believes me or wants to believe me. I try so hard every day but it gets really hard. I hope someday my old friends my mom my sister will finally believe that I have changed I do try and I will keep trying until they see that too. I always thought that people change and they deserve a second chance. But in my case every second chance turns to more an turns to shit.... [Read More]

Until We Meet Again

I remember when we were five, I took your crayons without telling you. I remember I accidentally sat on the box and broke all your crayons while I was drawing. I didn't know how to tell you,so I decided to just say it to your face. It took me a while to spit it out, but when I did, I remember you got so mad at me. You didn't cry, but you gave me a pouting face. I gave you a hug, but you kept you arms crossed, and when I let go, you were still pouting at me. I knew you were mad, and I thought you were going to tell mom, but you never did. I remember that time we got in a fight five years after that, I was so mad at you, but I don't even remember why. I remember it, because it was our first... [Read More]

I'm Crying Inside...

Cheyenne Stewart

23 Jan, 2013 03:21 PM

Well... Let me make a long first part of this story short... I'm a 15 year old girl that has seen things no other teenager should see... My older siblings are already out on their own in college. About a year or two ago, my mother had been going back and forth to me and my dad and this other man who ruined our family... Many times such as mom and dad getting a divorce, Beating up my dad, fighting over who gets me, having your dad sign you away like your nothing... That was the basics... But back to the first part of my story... So my dad had signed me off to go to Colorado and sure I was excited, but I knew it wasn't going to be the same... The first time we went to Colorado, everyone such as my oldest brother, my older sister, mom, and... [Read More]

Seems Like Yesterday When I Last Talked to You

Jane Sherwood

11 Aug, 2010 09:49 AM

My stepfather suggested I post this story here so maybe that I can feel better telling someone about the tragedy that happened years ago of losing my most precious best friend.. my sister. My mother gave birth to my sister on her first marriage, after her husband died of lung cancer due to heavy smoking she married again and had me, then my parents divorced when I was about 3 because my father cheated on her and made another lady pregnant...Then she married again, thankfully this time she married the right man. We were so happy as a family, we had our first family camp, picnic, and field trip, I wore matching clothing and shoes with my sister and we did everything together, but happiness never lasts long. My mother had a car accident when I was 5, our family broke apart again. My sister went to study in France... [Read More]

Unopened Letters

Hannah Ellis

08 Apr, 2011 07:11 PM

Hello Grandma, As I write this letter to you I cannot help but be filled with pain. I have to ask as I always do... How are you doing? I'm doing fine. Whenever I sit down to write you a letter to you I try to smile. This could be like the old days. I could tell you about soccer... But that's about me. You already know everything about me. So you don't need to know about my grades, friends, or anything else. Even if I don't tell you in this letter you know. I can feel it. Today I looked out my window to see the pair of cardinals that nest here every year. My thoughts immediately returned to you. Again. Cardinals were your favorite bird. I painted one in art but I have yet to find a chance to bring it to you and Grandpa. We might be... [Read More]

No biggie (kinda long)

Madeline

01 Jan, 2011 10:11 PM

Once upon a time a man and a woman fell in love, got married, and had a kid. When she was three they divorced. This wasn't a big deal for her because it meant no more fighting and she still got to see them both. Time passed and the girl's dad remarried. A couple of years later they had a little girl with Down Syndrome. This wasn't a big deal because she wasn't a very serious case. Then her mom remarried and they had a little boy who was an absolute terror and was often left for the girl to take care of because her mom worked late and her step father was always away or being a terrible couch potato father. This too was okay. They moved away from her childhood home and switched schools leaving close friends she had had for six years. It was alright, she made... [Read More]
