My wake up call
Adults have always considered me mature for my age since childhood, therefore my true coming out of age happened at twenty-three years old. I had despised alcoholics my whole entire life. To me they were despicable especially drunk parents. An alcoholic single mother of two raised me triggering me to swear off alcohol at the age of ten. I promised myself that I would never be like my mother. Then came my twenty-second birthday. My roommate offered me a margarita, “Drink this Leslie, its your birthday and its only a tiny bit of tequila. “I felt the heat down my throat, it had been a cool icy slushy with a bitter hint. I stopped soon after but I felt myself giggling a bit. This had been my first time getting drunk. I felt invincible and unlike my mother, I did not become violent or bully children. I made everyone laugh and have a good time.

The Narcissists Oppressive Communication Style
Have you ever been trapped in a droning conversation with a narcissist? Did they ramble on ceaselessly about nothing, weaving tall tales of nonsensical word salad, or repeat the same story you've heard over and over? When you tried to join in on the convo were you met with rage and accused of constantly interrupting them or were you completely ignored as their diarrhea of the mouth continued?

Implications of False Memory
Memory serves our lives an extremely crucial reason. It turns into the storage facility of our encounters, our learning, and all that happens in our everyday lives.

Using Mindfulness to Write Your Life
Writing memoir poses a challenge for many writers—especially new writers—because it demands that you view your life objectively. As easily doled out is this advice, it is not so readily applied in practice because we are often emotionally connected to our life’s experiences even years after an event transpired. The emotional connection can be due to all sorts of things: lack of distance, unresolved trauma, recently addressed causation for trauma, etc.

Everybody Has an Opinion
Everybody has an opinion, and everyone can share that opinion for all to hear or read. The internet makes this possible through social media and other social channels; however, that opinion means nothing because it's a use of words as the pulpit to project feelings and other issues onto - at times.

Broken Hearted
Hello world of Vocal Media. I'm not sure how this story will fit in, but here it goes. I should start off by saying that love is worth the pain or something positive. Something like love is worth it. I have believed that. I wanted to believe that. For me, it seems like love has been a sacrifice and distraction, to say the least. I'm 27 years old and for the longest time, I have actively sought love. A love that wouldn't falter. I'm still young, so of course, I have time to fall in love with someone who loves me back. I've been told that love is an action and not a feeling. I'm sure that is just coming from someone who doesn't recognize love staring him in the face.
