Fathers are not second hand parents
Children in this world are beautiful and magnificent, they are the inspiration and hope of this world. As more and more are born each day of every hour, it's also more that is lost. Our court system helps those parents in need of a family arrangement; family court. At a certain age, there is a time when a child who becomes a teen can then choose who they want to live with. That teen can choose father, mother, aunt, uncle, or even grandparents to such decision, and even though each parent thinks they are entitled to have custody or even share custody of the child what they don't understand is at a certain time and age that choice is now the kids choice.

What Love Is
Do you know what love is? How it really feels? Do you know when you really truly love someone? Have you ever been in love? So many questions and just the same just as many answers. Love isn't just a feeling, its way more; a glow, a smile, trust, loyalty, honesty, a best friend even, All these things are what makes up love, and in a relationship, these are the most important aspects of it. You can never get into a relationship and question everything about your partner or about yourself, all, because you guys put a label on it, doesn't mean things have to change. Kid these days take relationships for granted and don't realize relationships back then were completely different than today's generation.

First Love
From the moment we are born; we are loved. We are taught and cherished and have shown affection from the beginning of life. Love is in different forms, not every love story has a happy ending and not a happy beginning either. Mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles, girlfriends, and boyfriends all love different ways, but no love is the same as the first. From the moment we feel the compassion, the affection, and the loyalty with someone its very new for us, we question the feelings we are having. There are some who push those feelings away and ignore, just the same there are others who express those emotions and let them come out.

It's Okay To Be Different
All around the world, there are those who tell you who you should be, for that instant you really believe it. You believe women and men should be together, no different: women should be with men and only men. Our world has evolved, and so has the people in it. How can someone tell anyone who they should and shouldn't be? Telling those its a sin to be who and what you are; men with men and women with women, those who desire to be the opposite sex because they don't feel and believe they are in the right body. Everyone in the world is different, we shouldn't make others who are different feel less than us, than themselves, we should never turn our back and disgrace those who change. Everyone is beautiful in their own way, special and no matter how many times there are people who are going to say different, I believe in those who changed themselves that they are beautiful and because of who they are they make a difference and give others in the shadows hope and strength and courage. We are full of hatred and disgust but those who walk among us walk with pride and I honor and I idolize those who are different because it has me believe that even though we aren't perfect and that our world isn't perfect, the people believe they are. I believe I am perfect in my own way, I believe gays and lesbians, trans, drag queens, etc are PERFECT!

A First Time Mom
I thought I was living my life to the fullest, I had the world in my hands, I never thought the real joy and happiness in life is having such a beautiful baby girl. That's what they called her; nurses and doctors, not having picked out a name for her yet. But, before I start I have to go the beginning, how my life was changed from just this beautiful experience I never thought would happen, especially not at 20 years of age. My life wasn't great, my childhood wasn't perfect, and the many horrible things my siblings and I endured are beyond belief. Although life wasn't great it did take time and it was on the right track, at the age of 18 I grew up and put all my nonsense behind me.
