Relationships & Family > Dating Psychology What do women really want in a man: 3 of 28

If I had the mind of every woman in this world, I know I wouldn't be able to sum up in one article what a woman wants in a man.

I can say, however, speaking from my own experiences and from listening to other women talk ab...
Society & Lifestyle > Social Values & Norms Thoughts on small town gossip: 3 of 27

I have lived in a small town most of my life. I always grew up stating I would get away from there, but always ended up returning, only to find myself wishing to be gone again.

Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: 10 things I hate about the world we live in: 29 of 230

Ten Things I Hate 10. I hate how so many people turn their heads to the poverty in our own country and choose instead to help those in third world countries.

Finding a qualified babysitter is not just a job for single parents, but for coupled parents as well.

After being unhappily married for two years, I decided to make a change. Over the course of a year, I had quietly let my husband know that I was no longer happy in our relationship.

Relationships & Family > Love & Relationships Searching for a soul mate: 2 of 11

For most of my life, I had never heard of the term soul mate, or put any value to the word. It wasn't until I was unhappily married, and came across a book about soul mates that I realized how special such a person would be in my own life. After reading the book, I put my own plans into action, and started to seek out, what ...
Parenting & Pregnancy > Problems Parents Face Single parents: Tips for finding time to exercise: 2 of 10

Finding time to exercise doesn't have to be a difficult task. I always get my kids exercising with me. I believe that what people fail to realize is that exercising doesn't mean you have to go to the gym, or run around the block a few times. Exercising is getting your heart racing, and your blood pumping. My children are wit...
Religion & Spirituality > Spirituality (Other) Are angels real or imaginary?: 21 of 103

I am reminded every day that angels are real. They appear out of nowhere and go just as quickly, showing me the light at the end of every tunnel. Many people believe that angels are to be only thought of as a beautiful creature with long flowing hair, surrounded by a glow with wings. When given this description, it can make ...

After being to the end of the road and back, I thought it would be very hard to find things to inspire me. Then I had my first child.

Relationships & Family > Grief & Loss How death of a loved one can help you appreciate life: 4 of 16

Everyone has a hero; an idol, or someone they admire. When I was sixteen, I believed that I was a hero to myself, but someone changed my beliefs in that forever.
