Today, as soon as my 5-year-old baby brother came into my room, I yelled at him to get out without even looking up at him. When he didn't listen and I turned around to yell again, I noticed he had a bowl of cherries (my favorite) in his hands. He said, "Sorry, I just wanted to share these with you." MMT

Today, at work, a woman and her young daughter came to my register. The girl was hugging her mother's leg and being very well behaved. She kept saying, “I love you mommy.” Suddenly, her mom jerked her leg and said, "Get off!" The young girl walked 15 feet behind her mother the whole way to their car. MMT

Today, my wife kissed me goodbye, got in her car, crashed, and passed away. When the coroner called me at 9AM, I broke into tears and ran into the restroom at work to wash off my face. When I looked in the mirror, I noticed that my wife’s lipstick was still on my cheek. MMT

Today, on the one year anniversary of my boyfriend’s death, I decided it was time to clear his clothes out of our closet. In one of his coat pockets I found a diamond engagement ring and concert tickets to my favorite band dated the Saturday after he passed. MMT

Today, I interviewed a woman who is terminally ill. "So," I tried to delicately ask, "What is it like to wake up every morning and know that you are dying?" "Well," she responded, "What is it like to wake up every morning and pretend that you are not?" MMT

Today, my father told me, "Just go for it and give it a try! You don't have to be a professional to build a successful product. Amateurs started Google and Apple. Professionals built the Titanic." MMT

Today, I was working in a coffee shop when 2 gay men walked in holding hands. As you might expect, heads started turning. Then a young girl at the table next to me asked her mom why 2 men were holding hands. Her mom replied, "Because they love each other." MMT

Today, the evening news report forgot to mention that I was driving home from work five miles an hour below the posted speed limit and that he was an intoxicated drug addict with suicidal tendencies who deliberately jumped out in front of my vehicle. MMT

Today, my 8-year-old daughter came home from school and asked me to find her a website that would help her learn sign language. When I asked her why, she said, “There’s a new girl at school who only speaks sign language, and she doesn’t have anyone to talk to.” MMT

Today I took a bus to visit a friend in another city, and was seated beside a mentally challenged woman. I pulled out my netbook so I could do some programming. The sheer joy that lit up on her face when I took the time to explain what I was doing was unparalleled to anything I have ever seen. MMT

Today, for the first time in 5 years, my dad finally decided that having a gay daughter was better than having no daughter at all. MMT

Today I volunteered at marathon that raises money for cancer. It was raining and cold and I just wanted to leave. Two seconds later, a lady with no hair and an oxygen mask got out of her wheelchair to walk the last steps of the race. MMT

Today, after waking up from another horrible nightmare, I realized how abnormal my frequent nightmares are. You see, I don't dream that I'm falling, or dying, or being chased by some evil monster. In all of my nightmares, I am the monster. MMT

Today, I stayed up all night reading MMT stories just to evade the heartache of waking up without her. MMT

Today, I started packing for college. I spent the day scrutinizing every single thing I could possibly need. But once all of my belongings were in a heap on the floor, I realized that the things (people) I really don't want to leave behind can't go with me. MMT

Today, you would have been twenty, but I didn't listen to you ten years ago when you told me you were depressed. I didn't think someone your age could be depressed. But you proved me wrong and now you're gone. Your death always MMT.

Today, a day after I complained about having to visit my sister, she was rushed into emergency surgery and almost died. I never realized I could cry so much out of worry. I'm visiting her tomorrow and I cant wait to see her and tell her I love her. MMT
