About me - Raven Madd

I am certain I am not alone when I wonder if people are truely reading what they rate? I don't think I believe in this system anymore. I guess all I can say is that some are rated higher, goodjob. That doesn't mean I have to believe they are better writers.

Creative Writing > Memoirs Testimonies: When a loved one is diagnosed with cancer: 2 of 31
My dad died a few years back from lung cancer. Now I know I'm not the only person to lose their father, especially by cancer. Why my fathers death seems to be so sensitive to me is that we weren't speaking. The reason for the silence was all my fault over money. Now the reason seems so trivial for such ignorance. My dad trie... More..

When something so wrong was done and your heart ripped to the core, I ask you how do you drop that? People have given advice to others with ease like 'you have to let it go'. ... More..
Creative Writing > Memoirs Memoirs: Your earliest memory: 67 of 310
A scene much like in a horror film is one of my earliest memories. I was around three when we moved into a mansion on a river. Our pier was attached to the bank and hung about a foot over the water. It was white and about six feet by ten feet. My brother and his friends told me to come down to the pier. I don't remember a lot... More..

There is a lady in my town named Louise. I may have spelled her named wrong and if so please accept my apologies. This lady was no one "special" or famous, but she had a very kind soul. Louise was someone I wanted to know. I bet she was someone you pass everyday without a second glance. I wanted to know her story. What brough... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Self-Awareness & Realization Recognizing your true colors: 17 of 66
I really started thinking about this one carefully, because I don't believe me to be just the basic red yellow or blue. I imagine red, yellow, and blue to be the 'normal' people of society for they are the primary colors. The roots to morals and values creating the greens and yellows etc. Normal is a word I use to describe th... More..
