A site for all thinkers to discover more positivity from life and grow together!
behold those with their irenic nature
with a softness about them
affecting the generations to come
our home needs saved
by people who are the treasures
undoing the damage of beasts
they hold the harshness at bay
soothing the cries of man’s doing
demanding right over wrong
they are the teachers of love
gifting kindness and healing wounds
making us whole again
I hope to help more people be aware of domestic violence and how the effects of it can persist for many years. The first post on this topic:

Rumi, a famous Persian philosopher from the 13th century, once aptly penned: “The wound is where the light enters you.” I wonder what kind of pain he experienced to understand wounds and healing so well.
I loved the man I married. From the observations of others and from my own early experiences (7 years of dating him) I know he loved me. But his health and emotional unrest caused him to go where I could not help him.
The truth is: I was a victim of emotional, mental, physical, and domestic abuse/violence. Even writing it makes me cringe. I do not like to admit that I was a victim because “victim” sounds…

“218th Story”
Sally was an energetic smart girl. She used to do very well in school with the best behavior.
But in her last year of high school, which was very important for her future she wasn’t doing well according to her teacher Mrs. Lambert.
Mrs. Lambert warned Sally several times to change her way of talking to others and staying focused and many other issues that Sally had and was causing a huge problem, not to mention ruining her crucial year of getting to university and building a future for herself.
It seemed like Sally is not going to do any changes in her actions, and that made the concerned Mrs. Lambert ask Sally’s mother to come to school.
Mrs. Lambert was straight with Sally’s mother and asked her to take Sally to a psychiatrist and tell the doctor that Sally has a behavior disorder.

Lay upon an ocean wave,
ride till wishes fly away.
Pages turn to hug the wind,
bright stars shield soft shiny skin.Crescent moon, comfy pillow,
bask in dreams of love hearts know.
Build a fort, high in the air,
steady breezes make breaths fair.Listen to songs from a rose,
angel kisses, tickle nose,
vibrant rainbows paint bright views,
endless sky in shades of blue.Break of dawn blows a bright wish,
golden hour, hopes flourish.
Close portal each day and night,
protects clear euphoric light.Sweet escapes paint blissful smiles,
infinite views outrun miles.
Endless worlds slowly combine,
energies dance intertwined.Yesterday helps stitches fall,
every “want” answers “needs” call.
“What will be” meets “all that is”,
today plants, tomorrow gives.[…]

World Paper Bag Day (or Paper Bag Day) is celebrated across the globe on July 12 every year to reaffirm the much-needed daily use of paper bags over plastic bags, which apparently came in handy for carrying our groceries and stuff for donkey’s years, to the gross detriment of our environment.
This day of July 12 is dedicated to raising awareness about the use of biodegradable paper bags that are recyclable and made of renewable raw materials. Worldwide, there’s has been awakening of sorts – at the turn of the last century – in terms of the need to curb the usage of plastic bags, which are non-biodegradable or, in simplest terms, take hundreds of years to decompose in landfills.
Forgiveness is giving up the need to punish someone or yourself for an offense. We let go of judging the person who caused the hurt.
Instead of revenge and resentment we choose understanding and kindness. In forgiveness, we don’t forget that the offense occurred, nor do we excuse it. Forgiveness is a choice and act of will to free ourselves.
“To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.” – Louis B. Smedes
“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.” – Mahatma Gandhi
“Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.” – Paul Boese
“Without forgiveness life is governed by… an endless cycle of resentment and retaliation.”– Roberto Assagioli
“Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets…
