By Sheri Boulet / a couple of years ago

I am having a hard time slowing down my mind. Possibilities both good and bad seem to forever be swishing around in my brain. Someone told me that I shouldn’t worry about what is going to happen, I should just wait and see. That sounds good in theory, but when life waits with you it […]

Answered Prayer of the Cursed

By Christine Carney / a couple of years ago

My past isn’t a pretty one. It’s sordid, ugly and obscene. Most of it isn’t appropriate to repeat in a public setting such as this publication.
