Joshua LopezPublished 2 years ago in FamiliesHow often do you catch the pain behind the unwavering smile?
I often find myself visiting memories offered in your reads. I allow myself to flow without tooting one’s own horn in your series of self-discovery and reflection writing prompts. Helping me open the floodgates of my emotions.
Divyata DewanPublished 2 years ago in FamiliesA bowl of Macaroni and cheese and Grandma
One of my first memories is standing in my grandma's kitchen. Most of the memory isn't clear. A smile from my mom. A feeling of love and warmth. My grandma's laugh. The sound of a conversation I'm too young to follow. Mostly I remember how special I feel. The rest of the grandkids my brother, my cousins are still playing outside. I'm the only one in the kitchen just me, nobody else.
The Invisible WriterPublished 2 years ago in FamiliesThe Papa You Could've Been
Oh, how I loved our times together at the park. Oh, how I loved our little ice-cream dates. Oh, how I loved our dress-up parties. Oh, how I loved the way you’d let me make your face colorful with my glitter makeup set. Oh, how I loved the way you’d push me on the swings while encouraging me to make airplane sounds each time I swung up. Oh, how I loved your piggyback rides in the living room while you *oinked* making mummy cry her eyes out from laughing so hard. Oh, how I loved your special star-shaped Sunday morning pancakes with their chocolate smiley face that you drew on with chocolate syrup and the forehead kiss that came along with it. Oh, how I loved the way you’d let mummy and me bury you at the beach in the sand, turning you into a sand mermaid. Oh, how I loved the way you’d pick me up out of the backseat after falling asleep from a long car ride home… Most of the time I was faking it just so you could carry me inside into my room. But Most importantly out of all the things I mentioned, I love how even though none of those things happened I can finally be at peace with not having the father figure I craved at the age of 22.

Matt WhittakerPublished 2 years ago in FamiliesThe Most Important Skill My Dad Taught Me
When I was little, I marveled at my dad's skills. He fixed complicated analog machines. He built a doohickey that unscrambled 1980's television paywall stations (remember those?) He set up camps, and built fires. He barbecued a steak with the best of them.
Jeff HaywardPublished 2 years ago in FamiliesA Letter to My Dad
My father felt a lot of regrets in his life. Maybe it was the way he was raised, or maybe he truly felt like he’d failed his kids by divorcing, remarrying, and losing touch for so many years. There was a period of nearly twenty years when he had moved from upstate New York to Florida, when I was working dead-end retail jobs and unable to afford either time off from work or the money to travel south to see him. We kept in touch by phone, but it wasn’t the same.
Hillora LangPublished 2 years ago in FamiliesI’ll Be Happy When I’m Married to the Right Person
If you’ve been in a marriage or committed relationship for some length of time, you may be experiencing something that you are reluctant to share even with your closest family and friends—boredom. Although this may seem like a paltry or self-indulgent problem, it can begin with petty misgivings and complaints and ultimately snowball into dissatisfactions and breakup daydreams that plague you and poison your relationship. Your first instinct may be to end the marriage, but you don’t know whether you should or how to go about it. Instead, you may be hurting, consumed with guilt, ruminating about your feelings, making excuses, and oscillating between paralysis and panic.
