When we really want something,
we do everything we can
to receive it.
A student will study for years
to become the doctor who saves lives.
He or she studies,
reads,
takes exams,
finds out what needs to be studied,
which university to go to —
the list IS endless.
The point is,
he or she really “works”
to become that doctor who saves lives.
The same applies to someone
who wants to become a teacher.
Both of these are worthy careers
that start from an early age.
Thus,
we need to Encourage our children
by showing them
how we “get up and make those opportunities ourselves”.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

My furry friend
When I first saw you I thought you were the cutest dog I’ve seen. Especially those floppy ears of yours and the little boot like feet with the white print on them. I knew you would bring us joy but, I had no idea how much. With that feisty personality of yours howling at me, when I first get up going to the cabinet to get a treat first thing in the morning or want to go for a walk which in our house we have to say W otherwise you go crazy and start whining if we don’t go right away. I love how when you’re happy your tail doesn’t just wag it also spins which, I find quite unusual. Being able to play all by yourself in the back yard and how athletic you are you’ve got such great skill. Running, prancing, and rolling around catching squirrels and birds. Going for nice long walks, hikes then go to your bed and get covered with your blanket when it’s cold and putting up with your brother over the years tormenting you saying, Elsa go upstairs every night with your tail between your legs.

A More Human Vocal
When we launched Vocal nearly a decade ago, the world was a very different place. LLMs did not exist, and stories were created one at a time by people sitting down to write, revise, and share something personal. Many of our assumptions about publishing, trust, and participation were built for a world where effort and output were inseparable.
