That sounds like a very sad life.

That's one thing they teach you when you're in classes to learn Emergency Preparedness, Response and Management. There are times when you're not going to be able to save everyone. You do your best to save

Let me guess, really sharp-tipped paper airplanes? Wait until they teach the little one about spitballs. LOL

Well, at least one can say, they tried. The human endeavor for peace. Reminds me of what D'Lenn said of humans in the TV series Babylon 5 "Were one race were to make a large station like this, it's

My young friend who lives with my husband and I aged out of the system. Psychologically, he could seriously use the help of the galactic therapists. He was bounced from one place to another, often badly

We already have one. Problem is, there are far, far too many making massive profits by creating artificial scarcity and making sure there are no therapists to help those who suffer from their mechaniations.

I liked this one a lot :-) My dad's very sick. And cancer runs in my family. I wish things like this existed in real life.

"Brex sent a discrete alert to the Alliance to keep watch on this project and, if it was determined to be truly dangerous, stop it before anything went irreversibly bad." It's a human-done experiment

I have to admit, that one got to me. --sad face-- I'm just like that person. I tend to apologize way too much for things that aren't my fault. It took me a long, long, time to get any self-confidence.

Teaching those who had learned nothing but hate their entire lives that hate is wrong is very difficult. Getting a bigot out of their own head and to see the ones they hate as not being the monsters they

I'm not crying, you're crying. How sweet! And telling it all in the perspective of that little girl, to! I cannot imagine what the Thropori thought seeing the child like that.

Can you imagine the cat-loving Mr. Sunshine meeting them? Heh, gods help anyone that hurts them on his watch. LOL

This reminds me of an employer I worked for, it was a temp job. One supervisor actually grabbed the glasses off a woman and screamed at her for wearing them, they were yellow-tinted and he was screaming

So, the girl died of exposure and that was her soul being guided by the dragon? Or was a doppelganger, a non-living being, just left there so that adults wouldn't find the new dragonriders until they've

I wrote one, I hope you like it. :-)

I hear the buzzing wings. I turn my head to see. Looking in the flower's petals, I do not see a bee. A flashing gleam of ruby. The next one emerald green. Dozens of tiny birds are here. I'm amazed at what

Point in fact, Vlad the Impaler, to this day, is considered a Hero Prince in his homelands. A man who saved them from enslavement. You can see statues of him in places of pride and he's spoken of with
