Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Solitude: 1 of 83
Solitude,was the life I had,strange surroundings for my home,a scene,which will make the strongest souls go mad.Then you appeared,with those gleaming eyes.Just a mere acquaintanceship,in front of all we knew,then darkness would develop in the skies,and the heat from our bodies grew.I knew better to let my guard down,but it wa...

Parenting & Pregnancy > Child Discipline Strategies Is time-out an effective discipline strategy for children?: 2 of 28
Before I explain why I do not believe that time outs are an effective means of "discipline" in my house, I would like to brief you with our history with time outs. In the beginning "No!" Was that with one "n" and one "o", because I swear I heard three "n's" and maybe seven "o's". Yep, that was the longest most high pitch... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: The real me: 4 of 27
This Is The Real MeYears have slipped away,and I have changed.I no longer pride in my appearance,or experience the playfulness;Which at one time, made me unique.I am now a captive,of my own demise,as my new persona is disconnected...Full of lies!The past, present,& the future to be;I am lost in emotions...Why can't I go back;...

Entertainment > Movie Analysis Movie analysis: What we can learn from movies like "300": 3 of 18
Who cares if 300 is not "historically correct", if I wanted to watch historically correct movies I would watch documentaries. Anyways, every event in life is seen differently in the eye of the particular beholder! Example, Catholics believe Jesus died on a cross, where Jehovahs believe Jesus died on a stake, the point (if you... More..
Health & Fitness > Substance Abuse Crack cocaine experience: 1 of 3
One hit is all it takes, with the sweet numbing taste, making your heart race, and leaving you wanting more. Yes, one hit of crack cocaine, is all it took to change my life. At first it didn't seem obvious, the changes which had occurred. As I was only smoking enough, for the abundant amount of energy it gave me. I would ... More..
Pets & Animals > Cat Care & Health Signs a cat is in heat: 4 of 9
Have you ever noticed your female feline friend, rubbing against everything in sight while she yowls, and howls? You might have even noticed in this period of time, that loud noises may make her hind end hit the ground while her back legs move like she's riding a bicycle... If you have, then you have experienced her heat cycl... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Justice System Should parents be held responsible for their minor children's criminal behavior?: 16 of 32
Parents being held for minor children's criminal behavior... If you can prove that a parent has contributed to the child's actions, then both the parents and the child should hold equal responsibility. This will show the child, not only has "he" done wrong, but "his" parents are being held accountable for their behavior as w... More..
Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Being a mother: 2 of 4
Many times I wake up thinking to myself; Is this for real? Have I really grown up? Have I been married for nearly seven years? Do I really have four children. Or has this all been a cruel dream, leaving me wanting more from life? I stumble into the kitchen to brew a pot of coffee. All the while in a surreal state of mind, th... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Destiny: 118 of 158
I wished upon a star,so big and bright,for someone to love me;To hold me tight.Years are passing,as I wish the same;Am I going to find love,or is this a never-ending game?They come and they go,in the pouring rain.Many have leftsaying that I'm insane.The rain can be cold,much like I'm said to be.Wish or no wish,old & alienated...

Health & Fitness > Diet (Other) Effect of Soy products on brain function: 3 of 4
I will be the first to acknowledge when I have made a mistake, so I apologize for writing about a product in which I knew little about. With all of the hype about Good Start Formula, with it being so gentle on our infant's tummy and all, I decided to find out if the Women, Infant, and Children program (better known as WIC), w...
