    Warning: The contagious agent of toxicity is spreading. Avoid this agent at all cost. It’s sneaky, manipulative and if you allow it, it has the power to overtake you. It is my wholehearted belief that toxic people should come with warning labels. I had a recent encounter with a person who displays these poisonous personality ...

    Debbie haphazardly parked her SUV in the middle of the curvy canyon road. She jumped out and sprinted toward the edge of the ravine. Her heart threatened to burst from her chest as she caught sight of her son’s crashed motorcycle. She peered twenty feet downward and scanned the rocky depths for her son, Jake. ...

    Is it wrong to be selfish? At an early age, it is taught to be selfish is wrong. Religions have taught selfishness is a sin and praise acts of selflessness. One of my earliest memories of childhood is bonding over a toy in the third grade with a girl named Rebecca. This taught me the act ...

    “My boobs are too big!” is not a sentence you hear a lot. Unless you have large breasts, it may seem like a dumb thing to complain about. However, overly large breasts are one of the most overlooked issues in women’s health. Breasts are a hot topic, because, hey, who doesn’t love boobs? They’re soft ...

    Dear 17-year-old Jordan, I won’t ask how you’re doing right now. 16 was an awkward year for us, so I already know the answer. I know that it seems like life is out to get you. I wish I could promise that the next four years are so much easier. I can’t. But I can ...

    Brake lights. My chest feels shrunken. Stop and go. Stop and go. Stop and go. Stop. I no longer want to see my friends, this drive is not worth it. I blink my eyes a few times—they are glassy. My body, I shall attempt to describe it, something was off. I had been separated from ...

    The world was supposed to end twice in the past two weeks. April 18th was the first time. The rumors that the world would end came from a supposed phone call from the black box of Malaysian Flight 370. It was a rather crazy conspiracy with several different parts and pieces that followed the initial ...

    I have always believed that there was something wrong with me. I didn’t know what it was—whether it was a learning disorder, ADD, or something else entirely—but I knew something wasn’t quite “right.” Growing up, I excelled in school. Without sounding conceited, I am a fairly intelligent person and a quick learner. Due to my ...

    “That’s the thing about depression: A human being can survive almost anything, as long as she sees the end in sight. But depression is so insidious, and it compounds daily, that it’s impossible to ever see the end. The fog is like a cage without a key.” – Elizabeth Wurtzel The winter holiday months are ...

    I’ve always wanted to go to a psychic, but the opportunity never presented itself to me until recently. When I was invited to attend a free psychic reading, I jumped at the chance. While I do consider myself a spiritual person, I would say I was a little  skeptical of this woman’s abilities. I believe ...
