May, 3, 1578 Dear Person further in time, My birth name is A and I am 18 years old. I am writing this letter to help your age uncover the past and have a clearer idea on what life is like for me and for the people of my age. I am nothing but a peasant barely making it through the great sorrow we call life. Life is not that easy for the people of my time for you are very lucky to see tomorrow, you are lucky to see another second if you live in my time because every day that drags on, hundreds of unfortunate people die from malnutrition, disease, and devastating natural disasters. Don't think of England as an elegant, wealthy, organized country, that's only the rich areas where life is just a breeze and you have no worries because they are all taken care of by the lucky poor peasants who work for you just to see another day. I was born on August, 26, 1560 as poor as I am today, I was baptized on the third day of my life because this is a tradition everyone?s families has kept for more than 50 years! I was born into a family of 6, my mother Isabel, my father William, my brother Fredrick, my sister Elizabeth, and me. We are nothing but peasants barely making a living, we are so poor that the dirt on the cold hard ground has more value than we do. We are a very close family and we rely deeply on each other. All of us get along and no matter what we will always be there for each other for better or for worse. My father (if he is lucky) might have a job for the day so he can bring home the crumbs we call food. Lately though the job market hasn?t been very useful because everybody?s becoming poor and jobs are becoming scarce altogether. This means there are more jobs needed and fewer jobs out there. It would be a miracl... ... middle of paper ... ...ere are people out there that are poor, malnourished, and sick as a dog and have no family to take care of them. So if you have a bad day, don?t start with that ?woe is me? trying to get everybody to feel bad for you because there is someone out there that barely has a grip on life wishing they could live longer but knows their time?s only a tick away, and think there?s probably somebody that has it worse than that! I hope this letter has given you a better picture on what life was like for us during this century. Life was the slowest most painful experience God could ever put you through, but through all of this misery comes wisdom, appreciation, and most importantly opportunity. I hope you live a happy fulfilled life but live life appreciating everything you have because there is someone out there that wishes they could be you. Sincerely yours, A
Living every day like it is your last is good way to live. He wanted to know what his life was worth. So he decided to make something of it.

I close this essay with a message to anyone who may be reading this or even have the same troubles as me. Life will always throw challenges in your way, you will be lost at times and even scared to death. But in the end you will prevail. “Each day of life is a gift, that is why it is called the present”

“Lucinda Matlock,” by Edgar Lee Masters, illustrates the older generation’s upbringing and their views on the youth. This is a very common action done by many elderly people, once they realize most of their life is over. Masters uses Matlock as his narrator because, she lived what seems to be a very hard life, yet even after her death, still feels lucky to have lived the life she did. From this poem, the audience can take away a better understanding of life, and understand it is important to enjoy the little things that life has to
I have those I consider family, and always will, that have no licit or blood relationship to me. I suppose the definition of family changes to reflect the times in which we live but to me it has remained constant over the years. It designates for those which we care. To me, family denotes a lot more than a relative by blood or espousement. It betokens the people who accept you no matter who you are, where there’s no detestation or judgment. The love of a family should be unconditional, and everyone should endeavor their best to...
Have you ever thought about what makes your family unique? If you have, did you find anything that was worth sharing? We all have something unique about our family. Alto we don't always know what it may be we have something interesting. My family is no different, we all have had skeletons in our closet and some are still coming out. My family is not a very close family. Everyone in our family has either moved away or lives near us and doesn't talk to any of us. Growing up I had to go back and forth between my parents and it was always very hard to adjust to going back and forth every week. Because of what has happened in my life my definition of family isn’t in the blood or the DNA it is in the bond that we form with each other. I consider people that I have created a strong bond with throughout my life part of my family. My family is very big to me, they aren't just blood they are also friends, my dad’s side and my mom’s side may be different but I will still love them no matter what.
My family consists of my mother, father, and myself. I was adopted at birth and was raised by a family member
When the word “family” is discussed most people think of mothers, fathers, and other siblings. Some people think of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and even cousins and more on the pedigree tree. Without family in people 's lives they would not be the same people that they grew up to be today and in the future. When people hear the word family they think about, the ones who will help them in any way they can whether it 's money, support, advice, or anything to help them succeed in life. Family will forever be the backbone of support. They are the ones who support their children during those life decisions. Family is not always blood related. Finally family is forever, family will never go away.
I initially grew up in a family of three. This family was loud, chaotic, yet fun at the same time. By the time I got to the sixth grade, an adorable little sister came into my life. Now the family seemed even louder, chaotic, yet even more fun. All four of us enjoys being together. We love the warm feeling of spending time together. Honestly, if I am not in a class at school, then I would be with at least one person in my family. I feel ultimately comfortable when I am with them because they make me feel safe. My mom, dad, and sister made me be who I am today. My family runs on the traditional culture where the child must be respectful, obedient, hard-working, and must do well academically.
Life is surprising and is full of opportunity and taking chances, but it also has faults and tragedies. Life is a
There was a time when I thought life was simple. I thought when I grew up things and people would be placed so perfectly that I would never have to worry about falling in love, having a family with the right person, or trying to find the best career choice. I know now, my childhood beliefs, were merely as innocent and untouched by the world's corruption as I was. I look back at my childhood and reminisce on memories good and bad and thankful for the wisdom I gained. I wouldn’t be the person I am today if it wasn’t for many of life’s lessons.

Living in my family has been an interesting life. I have two very different parents. They both are polar opposites of each other. They could not be two completely different types of people. Even in their differences though they still have their similarities. Through it all they love each other and care for the other one.
There are a total of seven people that makes up my whole family, including myself. I have one father, one mother, three brothers and one sister. I am the fourth child amongst my siblings.
As you can see, living a magnificent life has brought me many obstacles, good and bad. To create my magnificent life I had to put all of my effort into it and I could not stop no matter what challenge came my way. I appreciate the love I receive within my job, family, and friends and I am very happy with the life I’m living.
