We all love to cool off on those hot summer days by jumping into a pool, lake or the ocean, but safely must come first. Not the obvious learning how to swim or wearing gear like wetsuits, but safety from the unknown. The slippery creatures that lurk under the surface. We should beware the call of the water. It may promise wonders, but beneath its seductive facade lies sinister secrets that may lead us to a fate worse than death itself.  First, a deadly reflection  Followed by a dangerous dive Then, a dream pool turned hole of nightmares Finally in our featured story, a monster in disguise Thanks to our sponsors! • Go to Zocdoc.com/SCARY and download the Zocdoc app for FREE.

The 4th of July 4th is Independence Day in America. And while we can all celebrate the freedoms and blessings we have in this country, it doesn't come without great risk.

We wake up in the morning with a long to-do list of things we have to get done just to survive. Everything from school work, to jobs to paying bills. Sometimes we have to do things we don't want to do. And sometimes we have to make unimaginable decisions that have unimaginable consequences. You must be careful, because the wrong choice can lead you down a path of death and destruction. And when we’re left with the daunting task of selecting the lesser of two evils, we fervently hope to emerge from that hell unscathed.

Over the course of a lifetime there are many things we celebrate and many secrets we keep. Everything from small embarrassing stories, to the worst things imaginable.

Love is in the air as “wedding season” is officially upon us. But while love-struck couples are celebrating their nuptials with friends and family, there are those who are not living in such bliss. Some of us are tortured by exes, unrequited love, or relationships that ended when one now lives beyond the grave. And then there are those of us who are just tortured by the rituals of a wedding, figuratively, and some literally.

For those of us who have siblings, it often means that we have someone to lean on, and a built-in best friend to go on adventures with us. But that's assuming we like one another.

But when we're in a bad place and have negative thoughts, or aren't thinking about the consequences of our actions, we can often be putting out bad vibes or manifesting terrible things.

May is mental health awareness month. and we are grateful the world is more and more embracing how important taking care of our mental health is. Everyone has those days where they feel off, not themselves, or depressed. Sometimes people might even hear voices, and for those things it can be important to seek help.

We all equate sounds to different places and emotions. Most of us, if hearing the crashing of waves, can easily be transported to a calm ocean.

So often we zip around town from home to school to extracurriculars. Some people are jet setting from coast to coast or traveling the world. We're always so focused on getting to where we're going, we forget about HOW we get there.
