For better or for worse, relationships reveal the core of the human condition.

My Alarm goes off at 6.45am. I wake up suddenly, looking at my teddy and call out ‘Keeper’. I run the bath, I brush my teeth and I take out my red top. I go into my mum’s make up bag, and I take her red lipstick, I put it in my school bag, I begin to text Tash, ‘Make sure you look on point. I’m wearing red. What colour are you wearing? “I put on my clothes for keeper under my uniform, so when mum sees me I’m in my uniform. My phone bleeps its

Memories
Friday night’s never changed at the Rhyer’s 24/7 Diner. Clara sat in their usual spot. The old booth with a rip in the corner of the upholstery. A picture of a boy throwing a bone to his dog resided on the wall. Taking a sip of her warm tea, Clara couldn’t grasp the cup for very long. Arthritis was never fun to live with.

The Importance of Taking Taking the Fall
We are all human beings and that means that we will all make mistakes at some point in our existence on this planet. No one is out there living a life where they always do the right thing. It’s just unheard of in this day and age.

Diaries of Anony Elle
I went through all kinds of craziness from the very beginning to the very end of 2019. It started off good, as I was exploring a new relationship, making decent money, my children were happy, my savings looked nice, and I was finally rebuilding from my children’s father’s destruction of what I used to call my life.

Berkeley Nights
Even the loyal set that inhabited the picnic tables Jupiter's proprietors placed on the back patio of the establishment had begin to thin out, as group by group, people began to head home and the staff circled around brandishing rags, wiping down tables and picking up empty beer bottles.

Diaries of Anony Elle
Heeeyyyyy everybody, my name is Anony Elle! #AnonymousLove #ChillinWitNoMakeUpOn I am 31 years old and I have 2 beautiful little boys; they are 4 & 5 years old (11 months apart). I am from the west side of Detroit, Michigan (7 Mile all day) but was born in North Carolina. I’ve lived in so many places in my 31 years, and that started when I was a child. My mom moved so much that I went to over 10 schools before graduating high school, and moving around continued into my adulthood. So much so that a few people in my family call me a gypsy; which I don’t necessarily disagree with. I have lived in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida.... Oh yea, even North Carolina. There’s no telling where I'll move to next! I have experienced so much in my life, and early, so I have always known that I would share my story.

Jealous People
People, both men and women can be incredible creatures filled with lots of love and care, but they can also be quite the opposite too. For years now, I’ve found myself running into a decent amount of men and women who just could not handle other people around them succeeding. It seems as though some people have forgotten, or they just do not understand the bond of all of us share as human beings, we are all brothers and sisters. These people seem to not care about lifting each other up so that our voices can be heard. A lot of these people only seem to care about is winning, and in my opinion it’s what makes all of them such losers. I’m going to discuss jealous men and women and the kind of trouble they can bring.
