"I Intend to Survive"
Many Americans fear losing health insurance as a result of the recent House vote to make drastic changes to the current Affordable Care Act. The Senate will vote on this bill next with likely challenges. There is a long list of pre-existing conditions for individuals included in this bill, which would lead to high expenses or a total loss of insurance for many Americans.
Jennifer MoneyPublished 7 years ago in HumansStrange Poems: The Result of My Non-Stop Mind
As a result of having a non-stop mind (always taking me out of normal reality), I started to write everything that comes to it. Unfortunately, they come in the form of poetry. Don't get me wrong, I love poetry, it's just so emotionally revealing that I feel it might give insights of my life to people (mostly strangers).
Last Chance for a Slow Dance
They slipped away one by one as they town slept. The weak shadows cast by the glow of digital clocks were almost invisible as they first flexed and stretched, straining to reach a wall or the leg of a dresser. The deeper, more defined shadows created by the lights lining the streets of Pine Grove twisted away from their owners easily, almost rising from the floor as the dashed down stairs and along empty hallways.

It's been a year… A year of unanswered questions and undeserved silence… I had a dream last night and maybe that's why I felt compelled to write this, but the dream itself left me just as broken as the day I realized that you had, in fact, lied.

Gareth JohnsonPublished 7 years ago in Humans Signs You've Been Breadcrumbed
Breadcrumbing sucks, and it's all too common. No, we're not talking about the cooking term "breadcrumbing," which involves covering meats and veggies in bread before deep-frying them. We're talking about dating breadcrumbing, which is when people actively lead you on and keep you in the aisles.
Ossiana TepfenhartPublished 7 years ago in HumansHow Abusive Relationships Change Our Self-Esteem
My longest relationship without pause lasted two and a half years. Some people will scoff and say, "bah, that's nothing. I've spent 20 years with my partner!" Well, at the time it was a feat for me. I had long ago written myself off as one of those unfortunate souls who just couldn't keep a relationship going, so I did everything in my power to keep my partner happy and engaged.
