The story, "What's Next?" shares the experience of a woman's journey with chronic illness and her persistence in overcoming the mental and physical challenges that come with illness. This story touched me because I dealt with medical issues last year and my faith was tested. I called myself in with prayer and believed the support of my family would bring me through that challenging time. This story helped me see and recognize that we must be empathic about others just as others did during a vulnerable phase in my life.

The Story i read was " How Love Works" by Diane Stark. In the Story we follow a young girl and her relationship's through her life and learning to forgive when things don't go as planned.This story stood out to me because it teaches us a lesson about forgiveness and acceptance in relationships, and how when problems appear in you relationship it is best to forgive than to hold a grudge because you are going to forgive eventually so you might as well do it now.This story gives us a positive and healthy look on how to solve problems in relationships.

The story is about a girl and her cat. The girl is going through lost of stress and

change and she has seen changes in her sweet, kind, loving cat he has been

mad and being a bad cat he hissed all the time and the girl was getting worried

about her cat and his change in moods she had to make him stop being bad but

it didn't work so she took him to the vet but nothing was wrong with the cat and

then asked the girl if she was feel stress she said yes and the vet told her the

when a person has a close

bond with their pet like a cat their mood can kind of rub of on the cat so the cat has felt all the sadness she has.

This story is mainly about after she lost her dog, she wanted to find the meaning of her life, so she set up Little Claw Rescue team, to rescue more dogs, so that she found her own meaning

The story is about this girl and her cat is very bad due to how bad her anxiety is as well, she gives the cat all of these things to try to calm it down but her cat wont calm down so she takes it to the vet and the doctor says that she needs to stop being so hard on herself and try to calm down cause if she doesnt then her cat wont either cause her and her cat are are extremely in tune with each other and the cat reflects her energy onto herself.

this story talks about a lady that shares her experience of how she did not feel like she had a purpose because of the loss of her dog that died from cancer she created a group to try to spread awareness i to had a experience with my favorite dog that had gotten really bad cancer

The story ¨All you need is love¨shares the experience of a wife and husband and she talks about how drained and tried she is and how she really can´t take a break but her husband gives her a break and takes care of the kid so she can get herself together and feel more human.

The story, "Steel walls?" shares about "strong Black women" building their own company and making their own money without any help from a man. This story stands out to me because as a black woman I'm starting to make my own business and career without any help. This story helps me understand that women can do things and build things without help from others.

The story, "Me and my dog" is about a married woman that has no kids and has not found purpose in life. She later found a purpose in life when she was inspired by her sick dog. Her sick dog passed away. She felt inspired to start helping other dogs who were also sick. This story taught me that things happen for a reason

it took her seven internships and 327 applications before she accepted her first reporting role. She left her life in Los Angeles for an aspect East Coast position

where they were paying 27,000 per year she had no active moving, and she was the happiest she had ever been. Many black women in the industry and plenty

of others have gone on their record saying they were paid significantly less than their white counterparts.

I understand the story because they like their animal because they were lonely and depressed because they had no friends
