We believe our community is a diamond. Not in the rough, but a beautifully crafted gem, and we want to show every facet. Cape is a city of hope, love, diversity and progress. Through these stories, we strive to enlighten the world to the many faces of our city. We are here to provide a platform for all of us to learn more about Cape Girardeau and its people, and foster a stronger sense of community, of service, and of general love for our fellow humans through the power of storytelling. Have you ever sat somewhere, and caught an expression on a stranger’s face that made you wonder what was going on in their life? In our fast-paced world of instant gratification and digital swiftness, it seems ironic that we’d use the same platform to get people to slow down and just view humanity for a bit. However, that’s the goal. We want to take that high-speed, high-tech device you’re on and discover something more analog: The Human Spirit. We want you to take the time to read a story. Be fascinated. Be heartbroken. Be inspired. Be empathetic. Be HUMAN. So, spend some time with us. Learn about your fellow Cape-area humans, and maybe along the way, you’ll discover something new about yourself, too.
