For better or for worse, relationships reveal the core of the human condition.
One Summer Night
Do you ever just sit back and think “how the fuck did I end up here?” For me, it happens all the time. I’m currently sitting at Starbucks angry as hell because its been almost four fucking months and I still can’t get one summer night out of my head. It also sucks knowing that the other person doesn’t give a shit and has probably never thought back to that one night, but that’s okay. I’m going to tell you one of the most magical nights of my life and why four months later, I still crave to feel as free as I did that one summer night.
Alice RosePublished 6 years ago in HumansMy Mediocre Take On How Communication Is Essential To Getting What You Want
I understand and recognize that I am coming from a place of privilege, education, and good parenting, and as a result of my circumstance, I consider myself not a total idiot when it comes to communication. I also acknowledge that there are different types of communication, such as verbal and nonverbal communication along with physical communication. It is something that happens all around us, every day of our lives and sometimes you may not even know it! But it is definitely an essential part of our society and without communication, we would be even more of a mess than we already are if you can believe it or not.

Have you ever wondered what life would be like if you had done something differently? Just think for a second if you were to have made a right turn instead of a left, where would you have ended up and whom would you have met? That thought had crossed everyone’s mind at least once in their lifetime. This time was different. Nothing was certain at the moment until you were introduced into my life. I knew for you now four years, and it was the best encounter that has ever happened to me.

I was 4 years old when it started, living in Cheltenham, England—where a lot of youngsters and free birds live. I was an outgoing, playful young girl and couldn't wait to see what the world had in store for me everyday.

Exception -R.Welborne. _________________________________ » »“Good Morning, my Luv.” I typed. My cellphone made its usual ‘ping’ noise, indicating that the message has been sent. The digital clock on my nightstand had just clicked to ten-thirty in the morning when I closed my eyes and went back to sleep.

Of course, no one is the same. All people are different and unique in their own way. And I like to believe that everyone despite their weaknesses and shortcomings, has certain good, moral values and ideals and a true potential that is able to reach those ideals.
Camelia MateiPublished 7 years ago in HumansSanity on Mute
There comes a time every now and then where you begin to reflect on the recent and not so recent past. For some people, things seem to go in a chronological order, but for people like me, they are just jumbled racing thoughts that seem to point out the worst. They seem to have no beginning and no end, and in most cases, they repeat over and over until the very last bit of sanity is not necessarily gone, but isn't able to be heard because all the chaotic noise of everything that has turned out unfavorably is drowning it out.
What Is Love? Fate or Stupidity?
You. It takes a lot of guts for me to write this. I have been putting it off because it’s something really personal to me and I’m scared of the reactions that this might trigger. Just as I’m writing, I’m overcome with emotions that I don’t know how to describe.
The Travelling MessPublished 7 years ago in HumansStoneless Attraction
April 15 Sunday is everyone's favorite day. Well, besides Friday of course. I, being like most teenagers, was laying on the couch staring at the ceiling, with no plans on moving anytime soon. That was my plan, until the sound of a deafening roar from outside interrupted the peaceful sound of quietness.
Fantasy StoriesPublished 7 years ago in HumansTurning a New Leaf
There comes a time in everyone's life where we need to close one chapter and create another one. They say when one door closes another opens. There will always be a light at the end of the tunnel but sometimes it feels impossible to rise above and find it. We wait for the world to change around us for too long until we finally realize that it's us that needs to change; only then everything else around you will change. The people we associate ourselves with makes a huge impact on our lives. If we are not happy then we need to change ourselves, the world will not change for us. The universe will work with us but that is only if we put in the work.

It was the night of October 31,2012, I just started at new job as a server at a kosher restaurant. I met him that night and little did I know my life would never be the same. I finished late that night and was so tired, he was waiting outside and I just walked right by him. I had a boyfriend and I wasn’t interested in talking to anyone. At the time, I was working two jobs and the restaurant was my second job. It wasn’t until I started working full time at the restaurant that I really noticed him. By this time, my boyfriend and I were in the middle of a break up after five years together. He was my escape and he was so cute. I felt free when I was around him. He made me feel good about myself and I knew that I needed a friend.
