I've always wonder what the past was like. How the people lived? What they ate? What clothes they wore? What books they read? The past is fascinating. The past has a way of capturing your imagination. My favorite time period is the 1920's, the golden age of Hollywood. The movie starts of the past were glamorous, from the dresses they wore to the makeup they used. 1910-1960 is when the golden age of Hollywood took place. The 1920's was a fascinating time. The decade when sound was first introduce to movies, then we have the 1930's when ...

One Star! How did I get a One Star review? I put my heart and soul into this project. My whole life went into this project, and now this idiot critic is telling me my book is out dated. No one wants to read a book about history. A love worth waiting for is the name of my book and it's not just a history book. The book is based on my grandparents love story. The back drop of the book is set during the Depression when my grandparents meet at the age of ten and all the way through WW 2 and the present day. This book is an honest to God ...

I remember like it was yesterday. The memories of that horrible day does not fade with each passing day, the memories get stronger. I maybe old, but my memory is youthful. I can still hear the planes. I can still smell the smoke. I can still hear the explosions. I can still hear the screams of the dying. Things like that never fade. Memories like those never fade. Yes, there are times when I wish to forget, but every time I see or hear a plane flying, I am reminded of that day. Remembering and honoring those who lost their lives is eas...

What is happiness if you don't share it with the ones you love? I've been blessed for the last 45 years to have been married to the most wonderful man and blessed to have three incredible children and four grandchildren. But my thoughts every now and then go to what I lost. It was the end of the Vietnam War. Soldiers were coming home. POWs were being released. But the one person I wished for so many years to come home never returned. I love this man with all my heart. He was my whole world. He also loved the Army and was proud to ser...

BROOKS Two days from now is when I leave for my deployment and I have one last shot to tell the woman, the only woman I have ever loved how I feel about her. Sabrina has been my best friend since we were kids. We did everything together. We played for hours everyday in each others backyards. Every summer me and Sabrina would go to the lake behind our houses and collect rocks and play in the water. Every Halloween we would dress up as superheroes and go trick or treating, after words we would go back to my house and count the candy. O...

I never expected this to happen. I never intended for this to happen. I did what any normal person would do. But yet it is happening, the whole town is here. I don't want the recognition nor do I need it. I'm a simple person who did something others would do. But nobody did anything. I was there and saw what happened. Yet others were there as well and did nothing to help. I did something. I saved a life no one wanted to help and now they want to honor me for doing something they didn't have the guts to do. There were so many people...
