An Act of Kindness for a Broken Heart... « Result #1 on Feb 12, 2009, 3:43am »
My husband, Hanoch, and I wrote a book Acts of Kindness: How to Create a Kindness Revolution, which has generated much interest across America. This story was shared with us by an anonymous caller during a radio talk show in Chicago. "Hi, Mommy, what are you doing?" wow power leveling asked Susie.
"I'm making a casserole for Mrs.wow gold Smith next door," said her mother.
"Why?" asked Susie, who was only six years old.
"Because Mrs. Smith is very sad; she lost her daughter and she has a broken heart. We need to take care of her for a little while."
"Why, Mommy?"
"You see, Susie, when someone is very,wow gold very sad, they have trouble doing the little things like making dinner or other chores. Because we're part of a community and Mrs. Smith is our neighbor, we need to do some things to help her. Mrs. Smith won't ever be able to talk with her daughter or hug her or do all those wonderful things that mommies and daughters do together. You are a very smart girl, Susie; maybe you'll think of some way to help take care of Mrs. Smith."
Susie thought seriously about this challenge and how she could do her part in caring for Mrs. Smith. A few minutes later,wow power leveling Susie knocked on her door. After a few moments Mrs. Smith answered the knock with a "Hi, Susie."
Susie noticed that Mrs. Smith didn't have that familiar musical quality about her voice when she greeted someone.
Mrs. Smith also looked as though she might have been crying because her eyes were watery and swollen."What can I do for you, Susie?" asked Mrs. Smith.
"My mommy says that you lost your wow gold daughter and you're very, very sad with a broken heart." Susie held her hand out shyly. In it was a Band-Aid. "This is for your broken heart." Mrs. Smith gasped, choking back her tears. She knelt down and hugged Susie. Through her tears she said, "Thank you, darling girl, this will help a lot."
Mrs. Smith accepted Susie's act of kindness and took it one step further. She purchased a small key ring with a plexiglass picture frame -- the ones designed to carry keys and proudly display a family portrait at the same time.wow power leveling Mrs. Smith placed Susie's Band-Aid in the frame to remind herself to heal a little every time she sees it. She wisely knows that healing takes time and support. It has become her symbol for healing, while not forgetting the joy and love she experienced with her daughter

Caspian's eyes filled with tears, though he tried to keep them from coming. He couldn't take it. The happy - but still sad - smile on his dying love's face. His son and daughter seemed near devistation. And Nox, Caspian had come to be quite fond of the young stallion. He was a part of the family, even if he wasn't of the same blood. It was a bit overwhelming. Serenade was Caspian's love and life. And she was slowly slipping away. He already knew that he wouldn't last long after she passed, if he was even to make it longer. But it seemed that Serenade was winning the race, which was an odd way of thinking about it. Caspian pushed the tears blurring his eyes away and nuzzled Sonata when she came to him. His poor princess, she didn't deserve this. It hurt his heart greatly to think of how bad she felt. But, in a way, this was a little happy. Serenade wouldn't suffer or be old anymore after she passed. This was his theory. "I feel the same, love." Caspian replied to his queen. "Words cannot express how much I will miss you. But I'll be right behind you. We shall see each other soon, I swear it." He said quietly.

Quote:
Eight years have passed since the Independents lost and still some have not forgotten. Some are grateful for the help civilization has brought to their worlds. Others resist, their worlds border on insurrection. The Alliance sees that no world succumbs to such a fate. Their fleet is vast and ready to squash out all who resist civilization.
I wanna have the same last dream again, the one where I wake up and I'm alive. Just as the four walls close me within, my eyes are opened up with pure sunlight.
Within the Core, one’s life is entirely mapped out before one takes their very first breath. Freedom is traded for safety and luxury. Many, particularly those on the Rim and Border worlds, those who fought against Unification, cannot accept this predestined life. Space offers freedom from the Alliance, a chance to strike out and live one’s life any which way. There are no guarantees, no safety nets to catch you if you make a bad decision and wind up penniless.
I'm the first to know, my dearest friends, even if your hope has burned with time, anything that's dead shall be re-grown, and your vicious pain, your warning sign, you will be fine.
Some of these freedom seekers turn to smuggling. Regulated trade prevents supplies from reaching the rim where they are so desperately needed. Unification failed to bring peace to the furthest reaches of the galaxy. Cannibalistic Reavers terrorize the outermost worlds while the Alliance refuses to send aid.
Hey, oh, here I am, and here we go, life's waiting to begin. Any type of love - it will be shown, like every single tree reach for the sky.
Those who see the Alliance’s countless injustices might try and stand up but are quickly put down before they can disrupt galactic harmony. Marauders and pirates tear holes but never do enough.
If you're gonna fall, I'll let you know, that I will pick you up like you for I, I felt this thing, I can't replace.
No one is really sure if the legends are true, whisperings of psychics walking among the common folk. Oh, the Alliance knows full well that psychics are a reality, conditioning them to be the perfect obedient assassins and spies. Extreme experimentation might push a subject to far every once in a while, drive them into madness or death, but rare as they are, psychics are still replaceable. There are a few conscientious minds within the Alliance that have banded together to form secret resistance groups. Rescuing a psychic from inhumane experimentation takes time, planning, and a lot of money.
Where everyone was working for this goal. Where all the children left without a trace, only to come back, as pure as gold, To recite this all.
Life is never easy in the ‘verse. Are you able to handle it before you wind up ON THE DRIFT?
eiko. love it. « Result #4 on Feb 16, 2008, 11:46am »
EIKO . LOVE IT.
Israel Eiko founded the city of Eiko a mere 100 hundred years ago. Though several things have changed, on thing is true. Once you come here, you don’t leave the same.
The original city was only a small school, a few houses, and a bank. No grocery, no nothing. If you wanted something Eiko did not have you had to go elsewhere for it. Though as Eiko persisted for his dream town to become a living legend that would forever go down in history, things did go in the wrong direction for him. Though at the time, no one would have known, but he had lung cancer. Living just long enough to see his small settlement grow enough to skim 100 people.
His two sons were determined to have the settlement grow into something grand. After 25 years of the city being there it really began to grow. While the local city of, San Francisco was beginning construction on the Golden Gate Bridge, Eiko was growing into a very popular city after all. Over nine hundred thousand lived in the small town and it kept getting bigger. But as soon as the cities get large, the more problems happen. Gangs, and several other things began to pop up and out of the city.
The Harper Institute of Education, sought out the city and wanted to place a school right in Eiko. The school was built for the smart kids that really wanted to go somewhere in life, such as being a president or a very well known scholar. It was about a year before the school was really up and going, and the reason it took so long it because they wanted to try new things. Add dorms, pools, and even more areas in study for students to sign up in. Once the school was complete, kids were offered scholarships to the school and at once, it became a very prestigious school.
As the years grew on, the college was transformed into a high school, but the thing is, if you live in New York, you could still go to Harper High because of the dorms. So its uncommon to be going to school for four years with someone from Idaho or so on. The school now has its share of jocks, Barbie’s, suicide packs, artists, musicians, and more kids. Parents and teachers don’t know the have of what the kids do on their free time, and most don’t care. As long as they are shaped into their ideal ‘form’ that’s what society wants.
Eiko is still growing, what will become of the city and school? Who knows. . . .

Tensions are running high between the werewolves of the Quileute and the vampires of Forks. The humans are oblivious of course, except for the few that are in on the secrets. No one is sure what has set them off, only that if they come within close proximity of each other, a fight is almost sure to follow. Have a care where you tread, be wary of the woods. The bears and cougars are not the only things that stalk through the trees....

In the small town of Weatherford, there are more than just humans spending their days here. Vampires and werewolves also make their home in this Washington city. They are deadly enemies, and the humans are unaware of the secret war going on around them. Some humans befriend either creature, and find out about the war. Even though the vampires and werewolves coexist peacefully now, tension is in the air every day. How long will it take for a war to break out?
