Stealing Secrets: The Journal Under the Mattress

Imagine you are fifteen years old. You have been keeping a journal for as long as you can remember. It is one of those journals with a hard cover and a lock on it; nobody else is meant to read it. In that journal, you have written about your frustrations with your parents, the friend […]

Vanilla Creamer in My Coffee

There’s no getting around it. Coffee is bitter. It wakes me up and gets my day started, but on its own it is hard to drink. That’s why I like vanilla creamer. It’s the sweet in bittersweet. Every once in a while, I come across someone who has that effect on my life, too. Yesterday […]
