The Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process (OTPF) serves as a reference point for occupational therapists when evaluating a person’s daily life within the various aspects of occupational therapy.

Growing up life is full of decision making. Everyday of your life you are faced with a decision whether it's what to eat for breakfast or what to wear. Some of these decisions are thrown at you right away, and others you get time to think about. The summer of 10th grade I had a big decision to make, whether to quit basketball or not. There were many reasons that I wanted to quit the team and many things that made me want to stay. In the end, I decided to quit. Not sticking with basketball caused

For many, there is no interest, and, as such, Hollywood and its ilk have sought to focus on the extraordinary, explosive, and loud.

Gandhi advocated nonviolence as a way of life because it is the foundation for furthering ahimsa onto a greater scale. The individual is the gateway
