Laura's Corner
I work very hard and am attending college to obtain my degree in the Human Service field. Writing makes me feel alive and gives me the opportunity to touch those whom I would not be able to otherwise. Last but not least, I have been blessed with two amazing daughters who love me completely and support my dreams. Feel free to contact me with questions, concerns or feedback.
Do things different...
"When I have kids I am going to do things different. My kids are going to get everything I never had. They are going to be raised feeling loved, special and most important, like the luckiest kids in the world. Yep, I am going to do things different!"
How often has each one of us muttered those very words? Maybe not those exact words, possibly something very similar?
Of A Lifetime...
I will be the first to admit, Rod Stewart is my FAVORITE singer. I admittedly freak out approximately a week or so prior to the event. The concert brings out my inner child.
WORD!
Just one can make or break an individual within a matter of seconds.
Case scenario: Let's say I begin a new job and befriend a girl named Suzie. After a month or so, Suzie and I have a falling out. We no longer speak for various reasons.
PRIDEfest?
I want to begin by saying that I do not believe it is any of my business regarding what others choose to do in the privacy of their own home. I do not have enough time in my life to worry about Tom, Sue or Larry or their significant other.
I recently delved into an area that few “straight” individuals choose to go. Some would call it the dark side, others not. What ever floats your boat, here it goes. I went to Pridefest. I went for a few reasons. One, I got in for free. Two, I wanted a rarely touched subject to write about. Three, I was able to talk with a few interesting individuals. Last but not least, I wanted to address a few concerns with the entire community in general.
