The Europeans brought this wonder plant with them when they colonized North America. Every part of the Dandelion can be used for some purpose or another, ...

Entertainment > Celebrity Commentary Do celebrities deserve some level of privacy?

I believe that celebrity privacy depends on the individual celeb. Everyone deserves their right to privacy, and are free to choose how much of their private life they want everyone to know about. It's no question that media takes the lives of the famous and serves it up on a plate for society. I would be incensed at a photog...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Walking in the fog

Milky mists envelope me, caresses me in a secret world, hidden from sharp and clear reality. Cool drops of moisture thicken the air. Slicken the ground with possibilities, promises of quiet, deafening my footfall as even the singingest cricket has lost the sound in it's throat, as the walker who has lost their way.

Creative Writing > Memoirs Testimonies: What I have learned from my special needs child

My son has brought so much to my life. Through the 14 years he has been on this Earth, he has touched so many lives. He is developmentally delayed, has communication delays, and pervasive developmental disorder, which to me is the same as stating that he is undiagnosable. As much as I have worked to teach him the basics, rea...

Entertainment > Movie Genres Movie scenes that make you cry

Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Individualism

Have you ever walked away from a confrontation with your boss or a coworker, only to come up with ten things you wish you could of said? Or, have you been too shy to really say what you feel and mean it? I don't remember how many times in my life that has happened to me. I almost wish I kept a list of all the good comebacks ...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Sunday afternoons

The paper rustles in my hands, Coffee, thick, strong, sweet sips warm, Comforting as the steady purr of the cat in my lap. Nothing on television, no excuse to have it on. Heavy perfume of bacon after noon. Another section of news pondered upon. Time to reflect on life's blessings, Thanks for the kids in slippers at your feet...

Health & Fitness > Drug Legislation & Safety Marijuana: the facts

One of today's most mislabeled plants, Marijuana's uses can be traced to it's native beginnings in northern India and Iran, all the way back more than 2,000 years to the times of ancient China, where it's properties of easing one into sleep, and pain relieving qualities, were used commonly.
