Lone Wolf 2008-04-20 07:11:09 I have not a friend left on this planet,
And no place left to go.
All of my life I have wondered what it would be like to lack one of my gifts,
And now I know what it is like to be hated.
To be cast out into the cold and cruel world and ignored by every [...]
Love Came For Me 2008-04-21 20:45:20 I watched the movie Splash just the other day, and it’s been a long, long time since I watched that movie. I remember, the first time I watched it, I was a little kid back then, but for some reason, it stuck with me, and I knew I just had to see it [...]
This Too Shall Pass 2008-04-24 01:45:18 If I can endure for this minute
Whatever is happening to me,
No matter how heavy my heart is
Or how dark the moment may be-
If I can remain calm and quiet
With all the world crashing about me,
Secure in the knowledge God loves me
When everyone else seems to doubt me-
If I can but keep on believing
What I know [...]
Pancakes 2008-04-23 03:51:35 Six year-old Brandon decided one Saturday morning to fix his parents pancakes. He found a big bowl and spoon, pulled a chair to the counter, opened the cupboard and pulled out the heavy flour canister, spilling it on the floor.

Haircuts 2008-04-26 01:15:58 I saw this survey, and it made me think back to the last time I actually took a risk and changed my hairstyle. I’ve changed hairstyles probably only 3 times in my life, and I remember the 2nd one, I totally regretted. That’s why I vowed to myself never to change my hairstyle again! So [...] Read more:Haircuts
My First Kiss 2008-04-28 21:52:07 I remember back when I was younger, I used to fantasize about my first kiss. I’ve always imagined what it would be like, what it would actually FEEL like.

I want to [...] Read more:Become

I do not define myself by how many disappointments I’ve faced.
I define myself by the forgiveness and the faith I have found to begin again.
I do not define myself by how [...]

Thoughts For The Brokenhearted 2008-05-07 19:22:29 Some people say that you don’t know what you have until you lose it, but it’s not like that. You always know what you have, you just never thought you would lose it.

But I didn’t see that the first time I saw you

It may be the way you smile
It may be the way you look
Either way, I realized I was beginning [...] Read more:Special

Customer Service or Customer No Service 2008-05-17 06:42:10 It’s pointless to ask whether or not customer service is important, because let’s admit it, it’s already a given.

But there [...] Read more:Customer
