Another hot spring day has arrived , and the AC is on full blast. I look outside and see kids playing in the sprinkler and some where in the pool. There was a group by the ice cream truck, as there parents come out their houses with money. Everyone looks happy, like a picture I dream of. I haven’t been outside in a few days and people are starting to notice. Knock, knock, then a pause knock, knock, I hear my neighbors at my door. I hear Susan tell Molly, something is wrong. Bella never stays inside like she has been now. I know, I’m worried ...

It was a blazing hot day and all the neighborhood kids, were going to the little creek by the old baseball field. I had already made up my mind, that I was going to stay home. I really needed sometime to myself. Both my parents were going to be working late, which was nothing new. I just had turn 15 years old, so I was able to stay home alone finally. I always thought, isn't it ironic how at 14 I wasn't able to stay alone. Yet I was old enough to deal with mental illness and take medicine. I was the youngest of 3 kids, and the only one with ...

Summer is going to be over in just a few days, and I am glad. Most kids on the block are upset about school returning, but I'm not school is like my Paradise to me. I get to learn, I get to be around people and most of all I'm not home. I rush home after playing outside all day my friends. Street light came on and the sun began to go down, I knew then I better hit the road running. Sally, my friend Ashley hollered where you going so fast? Not even turning around I hollered I got to go can't be late, and off I want. Not even realizing it but ...
It was another humid and hot September day in California. There wasn't to much to do, especially in the area we lived. We lived in San Pedro in the desert. Typical day for me we consist of, exploring the desert with my dog Cody. Hanging around the house and just being a normal kid. We didn't have it all but we had enough. Life wasn't the best but we were happy. Or so that is what I thought, until today everything changed. I'm not exactly sure why and I don't know how. All I do know is in that late September day, my daddy the man he looked ...

Me and my best friend Samantha, have been friends for as long as I can remember. If you ask me I'll say we were friends before we were even born. My mother tells me it's impossible that we were friends before our creation, but I don't agree with her. Me and Samantha do everything together, you hardly ever see one without the other. Samantha has lots of wonderful qualities wonderful things about her. She's not afraid to try anything and she's always following her dreams. I admire that about her I admire her she's my best friend. But there's o...
As far back as I could remember, I knew I was different then the rest of my family I was the baby of 3 and the only girl. As the years passed, I've came to realize I was the black sheep of the family. My heart and mind was nothing like my brother's. I felt it every day, and as years passed by it was proven to be true. My life was a chaotic mess, filled with lots of hurt, trauma and brokenness. No one could do no wrong, besides me. And when life took it's evil turn, I was Left with a fear and realaztion that, my life I was born in, was not my...
