Nothing can bring you peace but yourself." "Yourself,"… I am thinking about the time when my best friend died, and when I stopped being myself and my life started going to hell. It happened maybe two or three years ago. The day is very clear in my memory. The weather was cold and nasty. The monotonous rain made everything outside look gray. I was at home, waiting for my girlfriend to arrive. I was sitting on the couch drinking hot tea and feeling warm and cozy. My cat was there too, I remember. We
Have you ever wondered how something so little could affect your life so much? Well on June XX, 199X, a beautiful baby girl was born with big brown eyes crystal clear yet pure in color. Gentle skin and soft brown hair, this sweet infant would soon become the most important thing in the world to me. The opportunity to influence the life of my sister will probably be the most worthwhile experience I will ever encounter. Starlin is an important person in my life because, she has taught me so much, she
ROLE – Daughter Key Person – Nancy (my mother) STATEMENT – Jenny meant the world to me. She was a loving and caring daughter and a hardworking and diligent student. Our family was poor and we lived in a tiny, tattered apartment for the majority of her life. Her biggest goal in life was to have a successful career and earn enough money to purchase a house for us to live in. While her friends were out partying, she locked herself in her room and studied viscously. The sacrifices she made and the countless
As a student, positive thinking has made things so much easier in dealing with the stresses in the student life. In his book, The integration of Faith and Learning, Robert Harris says, “Successful integration is a powerful way to strengthen your faith and bring you to a greater love of learning. Once you understand how knowledge and learning and faith really work, you begin to discern how the world really works” (Harris, 2004). Harris says this, and I have come to agree with this position the more
The Perfect Crime Sentence was passed and in that moment my whole life completely changed. In the background, you could hear the people chant, “Justice has finally been served!” They don’t know me I thought. Everybody makes mistakes, right? But, where was my second chance in life. My luck, the death penalty became legal again and eagerly waiting for me to become its newest member. My palms grew sweaty as always when I grew nervous and scared. There was nothing I could do. These people wanted me
I, because of the death of my favorite dog that I lived with for 9 years, changed from being shy to being very outgoing. His name was Chief and in the many years I had with him he changed me forever. However, what is possibly the most important change in my life would not have been possible without his death. The days leading up to getting Chief were my first memories. I was so excited to get my first dog that I sat in the car on the way to pick him up thinking of dozens of names. I’d yell, “Rex
Twenty-two letters, seven syllables, two words, one second to say, and yet, “financial independence” has a connotation stronger than many phrases that are much longer. Financial independence is a concept that is difficult to explain without getting personal. It has a very personal definition to me that continually has new meanings added to it. It is difficult to define in one sentence, rather, it deserves a scroll in one’s heart. Financial independence was something my younger self believed was easily
Dear Dr.Advice, I have came to a new camp for summer. I went because I am going to college soon and am trying to get college extra credit. I thought I would be like the rest of the campers and do all of the normal things they do. I then got placed in the “advanced” group and I just found out what they do. They are a secret team that fights dragons and they train in a secret location. I feel like i'm not supposed to be her. They all have special powers and can do extraordinary things. Some can fly
Touching Wedding Speech from the Father of the Bride Ladies and Gentlemen, all of my guests, I cannot tell you how pleased I am today to see my daughter Anna looking so radiantly happy, as she begins her life with Steven. My wife and I do feel that we are losing Anna, but entrusting her to Steven?s good care. During the past few months as we have got to know him better, he has shown himself to be exactly the sort of person we had hoped Anna would marry ? charming, sincere, and reliable ? with
According to Hill, faith is a human act of will and a gift from God, involving deep emotions and trust in ourselves and others, and requiring us to be involved with other groups and communities. As it stands today, I believe that I can place myself in the middle range of Stage 4 of faith development. However, I wasn't always this confident in my relationship with God. Until recent changes in my life, there is no doubt in my mind that my faith could be categorized only in low Stage 3. Hill points
Having an identity and finding yourself isn’t always the easiest task to do, luckily I think I’ve found myself and I’m proud with the way I am and carry myself. Now, most people might not think that my outlook is the best way to go through life but fortunately I don’t care what people think of me. I like standing out and being different but not in a very noticeable way; I am a regular guy, I’m weird, random, odd and extraordinary and I‘ve really embraced the fact that I’m pretty apathetic. I’ve
Words That Have Shaped Me Often I sit at the computer, or with a pen and paper, and I think about what I should write. I reflect on my experiences with life, or with my feelings and emotions. If the subject that I write about is coming from my heart, I could write forever, opposed to something that I do not have interest in like the mating habits of fireflies. I don’t care about how, when, and much less why they procreate. I would always dread having to write a paper for my English class, and
It was summer of the second year of my university; I went back to Pakistan to visit my family after two years. I came to Canada two years earlier to that event to do bachelor in computer science here at the University of Guelph. I was living with my uncle in Guelph, just a couple of minutes ' drive from campus. I used to spend most of the time by myself, studying on campus. I had a very mysterious nature of not caring about people or things. I used to spend days without talking or interacting with
“I’ve missed 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” ~Michael Jordan. This quote is great for the 1980s because it was a time with many tragedies but in the end lots came out of it. On April 26, 1986 a nuclear plant in the northern part of Ukraine, Chernobyl, had a meltdown. Thirty people died in total, and many animals were mutated. The 1980s
Crack! The ball soared off the bat with indescribable speed. It gradually increased its height until finally, it reached the fence. The crowd nervously waiting for this could change the outcome of the game. As the umpire rotates his index in a circular rotation immediately, I know I have accomplished my goal. I run the bases with a feeling of pride and accomplishment rising up. When I reached the dugout I was overwhelmed by the number of teammates pouring onto me as I lay there on the ground. Everyone
