Secrets
Passing Ships
I suppose the moment of one’s birth isn’t exactly a small moment, but it is the one I shall write about now. I was born on Friday, November 25th, 1983 at 8:52am at Pontiac General Hospital in Pontiac, Michigan. The same hospital where Dr. Jack Kevorkian was practicing. Perhaps you know him by the slanderous, “Dr. Death” as the slur goes.

Signs You May Have Time-Traveled Back to a 1980s Rock Club
I was in my twenties during most of the 1980s. The first six years of the decade were tumultuous for me, and what I needed most was to escape the life I had become trapped in. Staying busy with work, school, and the Air National Guard helped. So did writing; however, what really helped me escape was MTV.

Silenced by the tide.
I was dating around. I met him online. I knew from the moment I saw his beaten up red Honda civic and smelled the exhaust fumes that this would be an interesting night. I don’t mean that superficially. But he fell into the stereotype of grunge. He came off timid but polite. We parked downtown and walked up the stairs into the restaurant. We sat in silence. I tried to make conversation but it was like pulling teeth. Did I mention he looked nothing like his photo? He was definitely the same person, but way more rigid. The atmosphere was heavy. His energy was mysterious. He made me laugh a few times. But if you knew me, you would know that’s not too hard, I love to laugh. I like having a good time and even though I knew this would be our first and last date I tried to make the best of my time. So we had a few drinks and the atmosphere lightened up. I was not completely satisfied with his presence, but I managed with what company he brought. We finished our meal. He paid the tab after making a joke about forgetting his wallet. That would’ve been fine. I forgot mine too.

Defining moments: a time in life that made me who i am.
When I was a youth, I had a small event that changed my life in a big way. I was at a school dance, and as I watched my friends laugh and dance, I felt shy and self-conscious. I've always had trouble with social nervousness, so I've never felt at ease in big groups.

Confession
Confessing your love to someone can be one of the most nerve-wracking experiences in life. It takes a lot of courage to open up and reveal your true feelings to someone, especially if you are unsure how they will react. But sometimes, confessing your love can be the beginning of a beautiful romance that can change your life forever.

Passing ships
At this very moment, I am a single mother of two girls. I love my daughters with every fiber of my being. That will never change. With that being said though, my life was supposed to be different. I was supposed to be married with a house and two kids: one boy and one girl. I was supposed to be a nurse practitioner.

Love in the City
It was a busy day in the city, and Sophie had much on her mind. She was running late for a meeting and had forgotten her phone at home. As she rushed down the street, she collided with a stranger. She stumbled back and looked up to see a man with kind brown eyes and a warm smile.
