Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Walking with God

28 of 223

A Father Forever As I come to you in childlike faith, Lord Until I can walk be the arms that carry me. Then as I take my first steps & start to fall Be the hands that hold me steady. As I begin to run, keep pace beside me Encourage me when I slack. As my feet become sure, my eyes toward ... More..

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Inspired by the Bible

7 of 49

Joseph Loved Too Tiny fingers curled 'round yours Trusting eyes that at you smile The angel said it was the son of God To you he was just your child. You never saw his death. But you watched his life As quietly he grew Into a man that was his father's pride... More..

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Smoking

12 of 56

I lay in the bed and stare at the wall Exercise and bounce a ball But still I can't find release. I lick a sucker and chew some gum Pace the floor and twiddle my thumbs But Lord it sure has a hold on me. Finally I go to sleep The only place I get any peace And then it becomes a dream. Legions there are armed with gun... More..

Personal Finance > Personal Finance (Other) Ways to help neighbors who might be struggling financially (without insulting them)

17 of 72

I've been blessed most of my life with neighbors that care about others, even strangers. So I learned when I was young how to help others without making them feel obligated or insulted. Whenever there was a huge snow all the kids were taught to gather the snow around the cars first for snowmen and snowball fights. When there ... More..

Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Creative giving to those in need

2 of 4

At this time of the year people find themselves so busy it's easier to drop some money in a Salvation Army kettle. There are also those who don't have much financially to give but still want to do the greatest good with what money they have. Though I would never encourage someone to stop giving to a favorite charity why not t... More..

Relationships & Family > Elderly Parents & Care Day care and elder care: How could bringing these two services together benefit both?

25 of 46

For too many years children and the elderly have been often left in the hands of those who have little time to spend with them as individuals. I've seen the starvation for affirmation in both. As a nurse's aide I saw that many of the elderly carried a baby doll or stuffed animal all the time, much like a child clings to a sec... More..

Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Addiction

19 of 32

I bet you read the title thinking I was a remorseful pothead. But after over 20 years on tobacco I've discovered it makes you every bit as wacky as smoking marijuana. It's just not as obvious to the rest of the world. Who else besides a pregnant woman would think it's perfectly natural to drive across town in a blizzard... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Presidential Elections 2008 Concerns about Barack Obama's health care strategy

6 of 8

Though no one believes the health care system isn't in need of serious reform most politicians still don't understand what the real problem is. President Obama has a better understanding than the previous ones. But even he doesn't really get it. Over 50% of our economy is generated by small businesses. Very few produce the p... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Religion & Spirituality (Other) Is death a choice or fate?

87 of 89

If death was a choice how can one explain those who live against all odds or those who die for no apparent reason? I used to listen to my parents say that no one dies before their time and it didn't make sense. What about the aborted babies? The innocents killed by a drunk driver? But as I grew older and experienced so man... More..
