“"I got a stern reprimand from my parents for being up out of bed playing with my toys well past my bedtime"”
This is not my story. It is one I have found to be a little hair raising when you picture the words.... "The Rocking Horse" One night, when I was maybe 10-12, I had trouble falling asleep. My bedroom was the entire top floor of our house with my bed and such being on the left side and...

I am not sure about the rest of you, but when a pet is brought into my home it becomes part of my family. They are just furry kids. I have a tendency to treat them like babies. And I love them so. I am an empath so I feel the emotions of other people and often the feelings emanating from...

“"Towanda!!!!" Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg”
A few years ago my sister, fresh from her divorce, and I decided to take our first road trip together as adults. It was the first trip we had taken just the two of us. We were headed to Lilly Dale. When we got onto the freeway we both yelled "Towanda". We just looked at each other and burst...

In October of 2020 my sister and I made a road trip to the Seneca ALlegany Casino to spend a couple of nights to get away. Very close to there is the Hinsdale House. It is reported to be one of the most haunted houses in Western NY, but there are those that do not agree. We decided to check...

Since my husband is not a traveler and I would like to see as many places as I can before I move along to Summerland I travel a lot with my sister. We are both very interested in all things paranormal and unexplained. She loves things like UFOs and hauntings. I am more a Cryptid and...

“"Every Moment is a Fresh Beginning" - T.S. Eliot”
I figured I would start with a story from my past. When I was very young we lived in aa old farmhouse that was very dark. We weren't allowed to use the upstairs because of raccoons (or that is what my dad said). So all of us (4 brothers, 1 sister, my parents & I) all slept downstairs....

Time to cleanse home, family and myself. Remove the negativity and open myself to positivity. Time for me to once again begin anew & try to be a better person. Let go of the bitterness, sadness and anger. Time to be fresh. I shall try to follow the words on the image posted. Time to...

““The digital innovation that set out to connect people, has slowly started to tear those people apart both from within and without.” ― Abhijit...”
For several years now I have watched as social media ate away at the foundation of decency and good manners. A few years ago I attended the wedding of my cousin's daughter and of course brought a gift. Two weeks earlier I attended the wedding of my godson and of course brought a gift. A week...

Night and day are again of equal length and in perfect equilibrium - dark and light, masculine and feminine, inner and outer, in balance. But we are again on the cusp of transition and from now the year now begins to wane and from this moment darkness begins to defeat the light....
