Sometimes second chances work out and it’s amazing. Other times it’s…less amazing.

“I hated my ex for a while, and I deleted/blocked her on Facebook as well as on my phone, though I didn’t do the total deletion like some are talking about…”

Well one thing led to another and then a woman screams out: “Oh yeah? WELL I F*CKED YOUR DAD!”

“On numerous occasions I would wake up to find my kitchen in total chaos – baking pans, skillets, knives, cutting boards, etc as if I’d prepared a seven course meal. Which I apparently had been doing – entirely in my sleep with no recollection of it.”

“After we cleaned everything up, we sat down to try our ice cream. As we sat there eating, I looked over at him and thought about how I didn’t want this day to end. It was one of the happiest and best days of my life…”

“At that moment, a little girl’s voice came from the vent in the floor next to me. Haywood came and sat beside me as though he was protecting me, growling across the room the whole time.”

When my oldest sister was little, like 3, she asked my then pregnant aunt to pick her up to hold her. My mom said she was like “she can’t pick you up, honey, she has a baby in her tummy.” And then my little sister was like “that baby is dead!”

“I’m a tarot card reader. For me it’s real. I’ve had too many experiences to say otherwise.”
