Core Beliefs: One of my core beliefs about ultimate reality/God is that everything happens for a reason. Whether something occurred at the wrong or right time, it happen for a reason. I believe in this because of my own life experiences and I am thankful that certain things even though it may have been hard to gasp. During my middle and early high school years I had the same group of friends. As we grew up each of us started going through different situations but we always remained friends and spent time together. However, as we reached our junior year we started slowly losing our friendships due to me being put into a senior class. Then senior year came and I had plans and goals to reach. I didn’t want to do activities that we use to do …show more content…
I know longer had to give advice to people about relationships, I was able to apply to all of the colleges I wanted to, I improved my grade point average, and I was able to grow more as a person. My life changed in so many different ways but I felt like it changed for the best. I was able to make new friends that were trying to accomplish some of the same goals as me and I know longer had to deal with unnecessary drama. I always heard, “if you can’t change the people around, then change the people around you.” None of them were thinking the same as me or even planning for better outcomes; they were comfortable with their situations and I was trying to better mine. Without them in my life I have been able to meet new people and build more as a person. Throughout my life I have experience that God will bless you and put certain people into your life. Just because he put something in your life it does not mean that it is meant to stay forever. Sometimes some people are meant to stay for a short amount of time such as a season or a few months, or even a few years. You will come across a few people that are meant to stay but they are really hard to
Feeling responsible for situations out of my control was difficult. My grades were awful, it was impossible to focus on anything. I could hardly sleep at night with the amounts of stress I was under. Knowing that my father was an alcoholic with bi-polar disorder opened me up to a new world. I was exposed to so much more than the average kid, especially when he would bring me to the Alcoholic Anonyms meetings. I met so many interesting people threw my father. My entire view of the world and its inhabitants has been altered. Growing up was very difficult but the experiences that I had has shaped the person I am today.
This might sound silly but one of the most drastic changes for me was having to take a bus. I used to walk to school in California so I was able to leave whenever I felt like. The bus made me wake up super early because I was the first stop and also I had to be ready I could not make it wait. The neighborhood kids were used to this so they knew everyone that rode the bus and knew the bus driver, I had to develop that connection while everyone already had it. Besides making new friends the bus made me more punctual, I had to be awake at a certain time and follow my
In life, things happen for a reason, or things do not happen for a reason. Only God knows when, why, and how one’s life will turn out. Sometimes, almost everybody does not like losing somebody unexpectedly or almost losing them. God has our lives in his hands and whatever he beholds of everybody , is what the turnout of our lives are. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” (Revelation 21:4)
After reviewing the worldviews in this course, I now have a substantive view of life. I could say yes indeed I hold a Christian worldview. A Christian worldview is a way of thinking that is Christ Center. This may involve trusting and believing Jesus Christ as the core of your life. My core values involve believing and trusting on the word of God. From instructions to promises, every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God is worthy of receiving with faith and obedience. For example, there are healing scripture to believe in. when we receive the word of God in faith, we are operating in faitha worldview.
As i was doing things on my own i knew i was learning a lot more. I was become more wise. I had become very independent and i work my brain to its full capacity. Everything i did i challenged myself to the max to be the best i can be. When it came to school work i was the one who didn't need mandatory help i just went to get extra help to open up my mind more and get more information and to learn new things.
One of the many great aspects of high school is the new friendships that are formed, along with the existing ones that are strengthened. When your high school life begins, you’re very secluded, and tend not to branch off from your current group of friends to try and meet new people. You feel comfortable seeing familiar faces, but once you’re able to break out of that shell, you realize what you’ve been missing out on. There are all sorts of ne...
When we are having bad times, God and nature are willing to help us through our
In life we are faced with setbacks, challenges, successes, and even failures. Although in the moment these setbacks make you wanna give up, I have learned everything happens for a reason. It can be hard to think that things happen for a reason but take the quote, “People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime”. I have had good people in my life leave, some being my closest friends. Time can pull people apart and people can change, but they once served a purpose in my life. They taught me things that I wouldn't know and experiences I will never forget. I have learned these friendships had to vanish only for the best. I think when people leave and things are wrong, it teaches me to let go and appreciate when things are right.
Values in my opinion should determine your priorities, and they’re probably the measures, you use to tell if your life is turning out the way you want it to. Knowing your own values can help you make decisions about how to live your life. The values that I believe in play a very important role in my life. These important values have been greatly influenced by my family and life experiences. My core values include family, health, knowledge, happiness, friendship, loyalty, trust, hard work, honesty, and learning.
Many changes for the good and some were bad but, there were some learning experiences that help make me a better person. The events in my life, was dealing with the Birth and The Death of my first daughter.
What is a moral code? I feel that a moral code is a "unwritten code that one lives by," This code is indicating how I should live. There is not anyone watching over me judging my moral code; just I am responsible to my self for my actions. However, a moral code should always be in my head and tells me how to act in all situations. An example would be littering; is it right to throw that gum wrapper out the window of my car? No, just put it in a pocket, I can throw it out later. If you I throw that wrapper out the window I might feel what Dick Gregory (433) calls "shame"; the feeling of regret or disgrace over an action like throwing a gum wrapper out the window. The moral code would make me feel this way because I would disgrace my own moral code by throwing that wrapper out the window. I might even consider why, should I cause some one else to clean up my mess and feel shameful for causing that to happen?
... my life and influences from other people may alter my ideas, but my beliefs and faith will never falter. I will always believe in God. I know that God is with me every step of the way throughout my life whether it is good or bad. I believe that everything happens for a reason and that if God wanted or wants something to happen on purpose, he would make it happen or he would steer me in the right direction so that I can make it happen on my own.
I am a Christian and I believe in the Holy trinity: God, the Son, the Holy Spirit.
Throughout life we come across many people, some who influence us in negative ways, and those who influence in good ways, often changing our complete outlook on life. For me, it took the struggle of one of my best friends to open my eyes. I only wish it wasn't too late to thank her.
My core educational values define what I believe is necessary tools students need to be successful. Such values are provided by the community of people (educators, parents, business partners) who touch the students’ lives. I value knowledge because without awareness of specific content, students are not able to truly feel a part of society. I value development of skills in order for students to apply their knowledge. When skills are applied, students demonstrate their knowledge and ability to function in our current world. I value critical thinking in our students so they can extend their knowledge and skills to solve complex problems benefitting our present and future. I value citizenship and feel that education has a responsibility to model and nurture character qualities in our students. Educating students is raising them equipped with tools that will enable them to function as contributing participants in a productive society. Knowledge, skills, critical thinking, and citizenship are educational values at the core of developing a student ready for the world’s challenges.
