Bad Week
I basically lived with my mother's sister (Aunt Sis,) and her husband, (Uncle Bill) from the sixth grade through the tenth. They were crucial years for me. I was changing and developing into a confused and resentful teenager. I was angry with both my father and my mother. I couldn't understand the personal hells they were going through. I just felt the emotional impact of it all. I rightfully felt that I had been gypped. All their nonsense had been very much avoidable...alcohol abuse, adultery, and immaturity.

Magic in Life
In the busy city of Hammington, there was a boy named Timmy. He lived in a small house with his mom. They didn’t have much money, so life was hard. His mom worked in a factory as a daily wager. She was trying her best to meet the ends but still, life was hard for them. Timmy was always sad because he couldn’t buy cool toys like the other kids. He felt left out and lonely. He thought that his mom was responsible for all this. Most of the time he was annoyed and angry with his mom. He barely tried to understand the position of his mom.

How To Argue.
Our public conversations are in a state of crisis. They're stuck. It's people fully convinced of their views and shouting at each other from a distance. One of the reasons why we find it so difficult is because the skills of good argument have been atrophying for some time. We no longer view argument as something to be worked at, rather we see it as something we jump into out of instinct or defensiveness. The bad arguments that result decrease our confidence in what disagreements can do for us- so the quality of the conversation further degrades.

The Art Of Flirting
Flirting is commonly seen as an art of attraction that is universally understood across cultures and time periods. It is a playful and sometimes enigmatic method of expressing interest and building relationships with others. Some may consider flirting as an inherent instinct, but it can also be viewed as a skill that can be honed and mastered.

How to deal with someone that is waiting to die?
My family isn't healthy, most of them. I have known this for some time. However, living with them has brought a new level of understanding for me. Of things that I didn't see before. My mother is very unhealthy. She was diagnosed with having MS at some point. She has been getting worse over time. At this point, she doesn't leave her house ever. Last summer, she would sit on the porch at least. Though that has stopped. She only goes out if she has to go to the doctor's or get blood done or something like that. The frustrating thing for me is that she has no desire to get better. She has no desire to try and get better in any way. I don't think that people are understanding that. Her doctor's and her physio people talk to her like they are trying to help her. I'm not sure how else to say it to people, that there is no point in giving her advice, she won't do it. Unless you see it, you don't at all understand that this woman is just surviving.

The Time Between Us
In a quaint little town nestled between rolling hills and meandering streams, there stood an old oak tree, its branches reaching towards the sky like gnarled fingers tracing memories of the past. Beneath its shade, two souls were destined to reunite after years of separation.
