  Hello there,
  Here is the categories and tags block you assigned to a single post:

  Posted in short story, Uncategorized, Writing Tagged abuse, cry, dream, fear, freedom, hope, Journal, Life, nightmare, overcoming, pain, peace, poem, Poetry, purpose, recovery, relationships, risk, saved, strength, truth

  Here are the reasons for non-appearance on the Topics ie. categories and tags pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/#missing-posts

  What you are doing (inadvertently) is called spamdexing AKA as tag spamming. The rule of thumb is assign the least number of relevant categories and tags to any post.

  As you have assigned a combined total that exceeds 15 Categories/Tags to your posts, you need to edit and delete. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/ After removal note it may take several days for your posts to begin displaying there.
