humanity

Humanity begins at home.

Old people, how happy how to live, rich support yourself
On the road of life, no matter how reluctant to get old, but, one day will fade into the background. As we grow older, each of us begins to understand how to say goodbye. No matter how beautiful life is now, no matter how much you love a person in your heart.

Firefly Rising
Sarah looked out her window at the water and remembered an afternoon in the bronze heat of the sun, feeling warm and belly-full. She lay on a thin strip of sand between the ocean and the craggy stones that violently rose up around them, and they were laughing. At what, she couldn’t remember, now. “The devil’s symphony,” he loudly intoned, making fun of her shrieks, while doing all he could to induce them. She hadn’t known she could laugh like that, before she met him. She turned away from the window to finish packing. They hadn't talked in years, but she'd tried to get a hold of him last week, after the wave. He hadn't answered.

How Did We Get Here and Where Are We Going From Here
So here we are, I missed my cycle, did all the things, set up an 8 week appointment, started taking vitamins and went about my life with the happy news that we were expecting. I made sure not to lift too much at work, rest when I needed to and just be happy. Now all that was left to do was start the anticipated upcoming appointments, eat healthy, make sure i was staying active, but not too active and build a human.

Are you a terrible person?
Each of us often have a lot of good people around us, to help, hurt us, but few people know. Because nobody knows what they're doing.

Go and Message your FRIENDS, it matters.....
Calling, texting or emailing a friend just to say “hello” might seem like an insignificant gesture — a chore, even, that isn’t worth the effort. Or maybe you worry an unexpected check-in wouldn’t be welcome, as busy as we all tend to be.

A Whale of A Tale
As a child I shuttled back and forth between my parents rather frequently; from my mother’s home in Portland, OR to my father’s home in Newport, OR. Those trips to my dad’s house were always a bit of an adventure for me. My mother was a PhD candidate and money was always tight whereas my father was a commercial fisherman at the height of the last great era of crab and salmon fishing. So, I always knew that a trip to my dad’s meant at least one meal eaten at a restaurant where the food wouldn’t be organic OR good for you, (boring to my child’s palette, anyway.) We’d go to many places, Mo’s for chowder, Ats-A-Pizza for pizza, Canyon Way for “fancy”, and my absolute favorite, The Whale’s Tale.

The sign that a man truly loves someone: restraint
As we all know, there are only two states in love, like and love. Liking is an instinctive desire to get close and take, like plucking a rose when you see it.

I'm sick of singleism
If there's one thing that's added to my frustration in the past two weeks, it's that I've read two articles in a row about the guilt of being single.

Would it make more sense to turn your best friend into a lover?
Recently, I read the new novel "Beautiful World, Where Are You" by Sally Looney, an upstart Irish writer. She is best known for her second novel, Normal People, which explores intimacy and the spiritual trajectory of millennials, and It's a Beautiful World, which takes human relationships a step further.

What secrets have you found in your boy/girlfriend's phone?
I found it on my husband's phone. The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.

Of Heart Surgery and Humanity
Each year, more than one million children worldwide are born with some type of heart defect. Many of them die before their first birthday, and thousands more die before reaching adulthood. Since 1994, the organization Shevet Achim ("Brothers Dwelling in Unity") has enabled children from Gaza, Iraq, Iraqi Kurdistan, and Syria to receive life-saving heart surgery in the hospitals of Israel. In the "land of their enemy", these dying children are given a second chance at life.
