Creative Writing > Memoirs Testimonials: Humorous stories from of job loss and unemployment

15 of 71

There is nothing quite as thrilling as a good firing. I love calling my mother on a Monday afternoon, "Mom! Guess what? I got canned!" She is such a proud parent. I am the master of one thing in my life, I must admit. I know when it's coming. I can always tell when I am about to be unceremoniously "let-go." And in my never-e... More..

Creative Writing > Memoirs Memoirs: What my dog means to me

111 of 428

I have two dogs. I love them both dearly, and as dogs they come with their own personalities and idiosyncrasies. Just like my two children, my two dogs come with needs and wants, and also are there to aid in mine. My Doberman is named Isis. She is huge. Crazy large, as I say.

Health & Fitness > Cancer How to cope when a family member has cancer

8 of 11

Is there a person out there who hasn't lost, or is losing someone to cancer? What a horrible illness. It affects everyone, it seems. My uncle was always around when I was growing up. He was a vibrant, silly man. He's still with us, but not for long. My heart is aching at the impending loss of this man who I love. He is dying... More..

Society & Lifestyle > Personal Morals & Values We are products of our environment

71 of 80

Given the question, "are we products of our environment," I am left with only a question in response. "Is our environment a product of us?" I've pontificated on this subject before. We know that humans are considered mammals, but I'm not so sure that we could not also be classified as parasitic. Unlike most animals, humans d... More..
