This is the true joy in life

Last updated on: June 13, 2013 at 7:09 pm By Aurora Winter

This is the true joy in life: The being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. The being a force of nature, instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community, and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. GEORGE... Read more

Stories of Post-traumatic Growth

Last updated on: August 6, 2013 at 9:49 pm By Aurora Winter

Common wisdom is that trauma or grief damages us permanently. But research shows that the contrary is true. Many people experience post-traumatic growth after an initial period of grief. Just as a broken bone, once healed, is stronger than before, people who experience grief or trauma can become stronger than before. This phenomenon is called post-traumatic growth. Babette Zschiegner is an inspiring example of post-traumatic growth. The only thing she loved more than travelling was her family. When she first found out... Read more

My mom does so many things

Last updated on: June 13, 2013 at 7:05 pm By Aurora Winter

My Mom does so many things every day that help me one way or another. It’s not like she saved my life once, but more like she does smaller things all the time. My Mom has always been really honest with me. She never lies or makes light of things to me. Like when my Dad passed away, my Mom told me the truth. I really appreciate that she did and didn’t lie because if she did, that probably would... Read more
