Aww Oswald,we are so happy to have you and excited to read your writing and share it with the world. I am glad you are excited about the community. We are so happy to have you. Tell New York City, I say hello :).
Hi Oswald! Welcome to the Unsealed family. I’m Kayjah! I feel like we are so lucky to have you join a place where you can tell the world how you feel and what you go through without any judgment. I can’t wait to hear more of the stories and poems you have to show us! Welcome again. I hope you enjoy your stay here.
Hello everyone, first this is the first letter I’m posting on this so please don’t be too judgmental lol. Kidding aside, let me tell you a little more about myself I suffered a devastating lower back injury from a car accident I suffered when I was 13 years old. It turned my entire life into a tailspin downward for a decade I was in a wheelchair…read more
First things first, welcome to the community. I remember reading the letter that Lauren wrote with you.
The challenges you’ve faced are tough, but you’ve proven to be tougher. From the time I’ve spent on crutches I can feel for you in problems with mobility. I hurt my knee so badly in high school baseball that I was told I would never…read more
Thank you Roger!!!! That really means a lot, I’m glad you know of Batavia too. They are in a different league now the PGCBL they lost their affiliation with the Marlins but we are happy to have them back. We were one game away from winning the championship but came up short and we had to watch the other team celebrate on our home turf which was…read more
Hello John,
I cannot imagine what it was like for you to lose your mobility at such a young age. To make matters worse you could not find a compassionate, competent doctor for the longest time. I am so glad you finally received the treatment you needed to walk and that you are here at The Unsealed to share your journey and wisdom.…read more
Hi Mrs. Brill, thank you for replying. I always love listening to your questions during Lauren’s Unsealed Conversations you are very intelligent and empathic person and I respect that about you. You should be very proud of Lauren what a wonderful community she put together here, she is one of the nicest people I ever met and you as well. Thank you…read more

Thank you for also sharing you kindness with our…read more
Meet Roger! Roger lost his mother when he was 23 years old. Ever since, he has struggled with grief, anxiety and depression. He misses his mother who was a source of love and comfort in his life. One of his favorite memories of his mom is seeing her joy when she watched him perform in his first band concert in high school.

Dear Roger,
It is always so painful to lose someone you love who is so very close to you. Their spirit and light is always with you. I feel your pain. I have lost both my dear parents and this loss is felt every day. But I will say that I always try to live each day with purpose and happiness because I know that is what my…read more
@shelleybrill I have been trying to get to that point. I changed jobs 3 times since October of 2020 in an attempt to find peace at work. My current job brings me back to the industry my Father spent 42 years working in. My Mother went through a lot of hard times with him always out on the road. My Mother never got her drivers license and so going…read more
I’m a writer and words have meaning. My Dad was a Marine and for him Action is what matters. I don’t expect him to say I love you, because that is not the generation he grew up in where Men expressed emotions. Yet I know he loves me when he took care of his family and bought me action figures (Star Trek or Superheroes) even when I broke the las…read more
@prelude2cinema this is so true Alex. But sometimes the words are nice to here. You really should check out @telina27 letter. She talks about some similar feelings and emotions in regards to her relationship with her mother. Here is her article. https://theunsealed.com/activity/p/1710/
My mother’s parents (my grandparents) also weren’t very good…read more
I feel like saying I love isn’t meaningless to certain people I think it’s only meaningless to the person who doesn’t feel the meaning behind the words truly. I’ve said I love you to many people but I’ve always felt forced and never really meant it. I don’t think I myself am a lovey-dovey person. I’ve only ever felt real meaning towards the word…read more
Oddly enough one of my friends likes to compliment me in what can be called paradoxically jealous. He said, I was fearless.
The circumstances was I went and talked to someone while he didn’t. Often times I strike up conversations with people I find intriguing. I didn’t want anything but just to say hello.
My Friend, on the other hand, puts a lot…read more
For the title of your story friendly or fearless, I believe that you are both. Not many can go up to people and start a conversation with someone you have never met before. I was just like your friend. I never said good morning to anyone on the street or talked to anyone because I found it very weird to just talk to people I never knew or had to…read more
Hi my pen-pal friend @ashley_topham. My name is Mehr. I’m from Karachi,Pakistan.
I’m 23 years old. My father died when I was 2months old. My family is so big as in we have so many members in my family. Me, my two sisters their kids. My 2 elder brothers and their kids. We’re a happy family.
My biggest inspiration is my Mum. Let me tell you why. We…read more
Something that we definitely both have in common is having a strong mom. Your mom sounds like an inspiration with her endurance and determination especially coming from a society that tries to deter a woman’s independence as you mentioned. My mom was also fiercely independent as she had to raise me alone. We definitely…read more
I’m glad we have something in common. Know that I’m so proud of your mom and you. Respect & love for your mom.
I completely understand, I used to spend time with my siblings. My mom used to tell them to take good care and do not fight haha. You know what my brother used to drop and pick me up from kindergarten on a bicycle, there was a small…read more
Random Memories
My first professional job. December 1986 I was fixing to graduate college and Jeanette and I were getting married a couple of weeks after that. I don’t remember when I began sending out resumes which were really inquiries since I had never set foot into an accounting firm/office. I really wanted to move to Florida , there was s…read more
Hi Richard. My name is Jim. Good story. How are you? Ex sounds like a good learning resource and a good man. People like that are invaluable aren’t they? Being a CPA? You like it I assume ? You live where now? Indianapolis? It’s nice to meet you. My fired professional job was..hmm. I guess at a car rental place in Hudson, Ohio. Not sure the man…read more
