Lives Interrupted: The Unwanted Pregnancy Dilemma (Short Story) - 7/19/2014 8:02:28 AM
Do you have a story to relate to us about unwanted pregnancy? I don't see any story here, only a pitch for your book.
I'm working on a story to post here along with many others that I've posted. It's not in any of the books that I've published.

It was not my fault! (Short Story) - 1/19/2011 6:50:30 AM
My daughter just recently told me this happened to her also. It did not happen just once but several times over the course of three months. This boy was here boyfriend & she had been dating him for about 9 months before this started happening to her. By the first time it happened she was in love with him & he had her so emotionally manipulated & dependant on him. She did not want to loose him or get him into trouble & was also afraid of him. So she continued seeing him anyway & told no one about what he was doing to her, not even her best friend. It even got to the point where he would hold her down & I did notice bruises on her arms. When I questioned her about the bruises she said she got them when they were playing around with each other. This has not been reported yet because my daughter is refusing to report it. This boy found out that my daughter was finally telling her friends what happened. So he told his parents & this boys mother sent my daughter a message on facebook. This women had the nerve to threaten my daughter with a civil suit for defamation of character against her son, if my daughter did not stop talking about it. She told her she would not just sue her but also her parents & that her lawyer would be in contact with her parents if she told anyone else. My daughter had only told her close friends & her parents when this boys mother sent my daughter the threat. Since then this boy himself has gone & told other students at school directly, that he knows will spread it around, that my daughter is lying about him raping her. I talked to a lawyer who said they can not file a civil suit against her at this point. I do not want to force her to report this but at the same time I want justice for her. I also fear what happen to my daughter will happpen to another girl if I can not convence her to report this to the prosecuter. The day after my daughter told me what happened I made her an appointment to see her therapist. The soonest appointment for her to be seen was yesterday. So she has only talked to the therapist once about this so far. The therapist told me that there is a good chance the boy will not be prosecuted & that reporting it would cause my daughter more harm than good. Even though the therapist does believe my daughter & agrees that this was definately date rape that occured. The lawyer I talked to said that if the prosecuter does not think there is a strong enough case they won't even file the charges. So I don't think there will be much harm in atleast having my daughter tell them what happened, even if no charges are filed. I am at a loss trying to figure out what to do in this situation. If you have any advise or would be willing to talk to my daughter please message me. I am not sure if she will respond back to you but if you are willing to write her a message, then I could atleast give it to her. Thank you for having the courage to share what happened to you. I wish you healing & peace after having to endure such a horrific ordeal. It certainly was NOT your fault & the man who did this to you will pay for it one day! It may not be here on this earth but God will hold him accountable for sure!!!

Very open and honest look at yourself as a parent Jeanne. We all, as parents, do the best we can with what we have. It's beautiful to see the friendship between you and your daughter. I'm sure she appreciates the fact her mother always has her back. Good write. I enjoyed reading it.

I am too lazy to work in my dreams. I rather like the unexpected and journeys from them. A very interesting piece though.

People usually get into trouble speaking their mind..but I feel things should be said and we just deal with the consequences. I am sure LUke knows what you did not get to say. Thank you for sharing this.

Love in a pastoral care visit (Short Story) - 8/10/2008 12:00:55 AM
This was brave of you to write a story about Clara. We all seem to marvel at the people who have such love and faith in God. I do believe there is "a mystery of faith" that no person can explain.
I have seen healings that and many other miracles that God has preformed. It is a miracle that I am still here! Then other people suffer like Job and we wonder why? Only God knows. That's the mystery of faith.
God Bless You!

Excellent write; well penned!
It was not my fault! (Short Story) - 1/8/2008 7:51:52 PM
(((Jeanne))) First of all, my most heartfelt sympathy. You endured a horrendous experience, but you survived. Many are not so blessed.
It's amazing how many men still feel that rape victims somehow "asked for it" by the way they were dressed, or if they were drinking, or if they gave the rapist a certain "look". More education is needed. Your story contributes to that edication, and for that, I thank you and God bless you.
As for your writing, the ending of this story, as written, came too abruptly. I would like to have read about what happened to "David", and more about your anger and eventual reconciliation with God. Otherwise, a very compelling read.
Best,
Julie
By what truths do you live? (Short Story) - 1/8/2008 2:21:24 PM
i really like this piece, and relate to it alot. as a writer, I tend to become so involved in writing that i forget about life. it becomes a false god. Have you ever read C.S. Lewis' The Great Divorce? there is an excerpt in there about how a reader can enjoy his/her's collection more than actually reading them. how people can love the telling, more than the content, the package, more than the meat. I turned to God two years ago. recently, i have decided to begin my testimony as an epic poem. though, it feels weird writing something knowing it will not enter any market. thanx for sharing!
What is the direction of your New Year? (Short Story) - 1/4/2008 10:10:28 AM
One of my new adventures for 2008 is to have a professional therapist assess my work and finally put a name to the affliction from which I suffer daily due to the number my mother did on me; to understand that bi-polar people are not just one, but two, narcisistic geniuses trapped in the same head. Kidding. I just wanted to compliment your writing; my own work relies heavily on a lot of very solid psychological prnicipals. I mask these lessons in humor so as not to scare of the crowds away before they have a chance to grow.
A excerpt from my new book (Article) - 2/10/2015 6:41:34 AM
While your article only refers to your "new book," I assume you are referring to unwanted pregnancy. That's something that I, thankfully, never had to face. I'm not writing is a male, but as a male who never what a woman in such of a dilemma. Only those that have had to face that situation, like my mother, can imagine what it must be like. Fortunately, for my mother, while her aspirations for college and other things were lost, things turned out quite well.
This excerpt focuses on the response to unwanted demands like places on us. While I experienced periods of depression after life through me a left curve, I didn't dwell on it for very long and got back to the business of living. I'm not sure this excerpt would lead me to want to read the book.

Where does compassion end and co-dependency begin? (Article) - 9/9/2014 7:25:01 AM
Very good points. I'm a twin and my brother and I were codependent until I was paralyzed in surgery and we parted ways. It was good for both of us, but especially him, because he gained a lot of independence that he didn't have when he relied on me for the first 20 years of his life.
I did learn a lot about sharing though and find that I can share with others without becoming codependent with them quite easily. People think it's quite courageous of me to do that, but I think it's just normal.
