Secrets
A Memorable Street Proposal
I am Madan. Today, I am getting married with a girl of my life. I am happy but I don't know what wrong with me today. Have I broken any promise? Is anything left behind? I was eagerly waiting for this big day for the last three years. She is the only one I have desired in the last five years. But...

Tornadoes
At my job we get a lot of mail that has been rejected. We send it on, but sometimes it just keeps getting sent back. Sometimes when it goes undelivered for more than a few years, we read it. It is a perverted habit, perhaps, but not without its rewards. In any case this letter was worth the while. It contained a large script of tightly folded paper of a quality I had never seen, and a small pink flower, crushed as if by a boot. Written on the envelope in brown ink were the words:

Actual Privilege
I lived in Florida in 2007. Improbable for my age and socioeconomic status, I lived in an oceanfront condo, rented from a nice gentleman with a severe drug addiction. He used to be a surfer and a lifeguard, but he broke his back in an accident. He lost a lot of his mobility (and I suspect a large sense of his identity) from the injury, and half of his mind to the opiates his doctor prescribed. Being in his presence made my whole body heavy with sadness.

Confess or suffer..its always your choice
I'm not brave enough to confess some things that have happened in my life.. The consequences to me, is just not worth it. No matter what happens, some will say you are a hero, some will call you a no-good human being. while others will just call you crazy. I had an incident happen while married to my ex-husband.. well, a couple things that to this day I cannot divulge as much as I desire to tell anyone. I know that if i reveal what I know I saw with my own two eyes i would probably be in an institution or be under someone's watchful eye..destroying all and any credibility I ever had.. What about you? Have you ever been in a situation that no matter how remarkably terrifying it is, you knew that it would go with you to the grave?? Hey, that's what i will do... I will write it out in detail .. and pray that when i die, it will be found and the consequences of my confessions will be righteous and swift.

Coward
I wake up from a truly restless sleep. Away from my family. I stare up into the ceiling in the dark room and try to calm myself down. My heart is beating faster than normal and as I try to steady my breathing, I suddenly feel like throwing up when I think about the day ahead of me.

One Mistake That Ruins All Your Efforts On The Spiritual Path
We all want to know how to accelerate our spiritual growth. There are obviously some good principles to work with. Doing one’s best to remain present. Observing one’s thoughts and feelings. Remaining humble in front of life. Feeling grateful and accepting of whatever life shows us. And so on.

The Letter of Q
Introduction When I was 12 years old Animal Planet created a TV show called “Finding Bigfoot.” The series followed a team of “bigfoot field researchers” as they travelled across America in search of a species of giant bipedal apes that apparently roam the nation’s forests undetected by science or well functioning cameras. My siblings and I shared a good laugh when we first came across a preview for it. The sight of a grown man yelling into the woods and hoping that a mythical creature would yell back was really quite funny.

Letters To Exes Past And Myself, Finished With A Letter From My Husband
From the diary under my bed. In chronological order from 2015… Dear Saddest Violin Playing The Saddest Song, Ordinary thinkers are trapped by their inability to forgive. Extraordinary thinkers are constantly renewed and released by forgiveness. All freedom begins in forgiveness. All forgiveness begins in the mirror. Our time on this earth is too short. Our Universe is large. I refuse to waste my opportunity with anger and victimhood. Nothing cleanses like forgiving. Nothing releases like forgetting.

I am not a Daddy's girl
Secret Out When I was a very young girl, I wondered why my dad didn't love me the way he loved my little sister. He would pick her up and play with her(spinning her around and around). He had a cute name for her. When he saw her, the biggest smile would appear on his face. She was the center of his joy. He would do anything for her.
