Hello? Can anyone hear me?

All I can think and say is “hello… Hello… Hello? “ I feel like I’m screaming inside, and out.
I missed you didn’t you miss me?
I am finally standing right in front of you, myself vulnerable but you’re not even attempting to talk to me, and
I want a moment just you and I
I feel alone but I am with my mom and she pulls me back to reality and hugs me on their couch. I am so grateful for her in that moment. I’m so tired from the 12 hour drive and I can’t imagine how my mom feels. Actually I can imagine….

I dragged her out to Idaho again, so I can visit my family, and my dads grave, but all I have been thinking about is myself. I have …show more content…

She has always been there for me. Always since I was born. I mean that is a role of a typical mother right? Well for my mom it has been. Even when my father took me away from her when I was 6. My whole life changed...for the worst. All she could do was call me and tell me how much she loved me. Guess what I gave her in return. A cold shoulder and never once tried to talk to her. If I did say something it was “I hate you” and hung up. How could a child hate her own mother so much? To be honest, I didn’t hate her I didn’t even know her, but I felt like if I told my mom I wanted to know her. The real her, and not the lies about her that my family told me. Then maybe, just maybe I could

    The war in Vietnam ranged from 1956 to 1975, within these years many unconventional methods of warfare were used, such as “Agent Orange”, guerilla warfare and even events such as the “My Lai Massacre” occurred. The Vietnam War was a proxy war in which the United States fought the North Vietnamese who were backed by the USSR, we did not win the Vietnam war due to a lack of clear goals, and the impossibility to combat the North Vietnamese soldiers who by day were regular civilians but by night were using guerilla attacks on U.S. soldiers. Throughout the Vietnam War our troops and bombs caused large amounts of damage to the land of North and South Vietnam but the most damage was in our own home. Throughout the United States involvement in Vietnam, there were many adverse effects on our own lives, including the large increase of political, social and economic tension. The Vietnam War heightened social, political and economic tensions by causing inflation and a growing budget deficit of the United States. For the social tensions, it caused for the first time people protesting against a war and a lack of faith in the government due to being lied to. And as for political tensions the first lottery draft in history stressed many politicians due to an outraged population.

    Earth is a planet is made up of a mixture of oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and several other gaseous elements that have created and sustained life as we know it. The universe is a vast space made of matter that varies from the smallest cosmic particle to a massive galaxy. Within one of billions of galaxies is home to planet earth, which is one of 7 planets in the Milky Way Galaxy, all orbiting a star. Based on what human life is conscious of, Earth is the only residence of intelligent life in the universe. Could planet Earth be the only planet able to sustain intelligent life or are there other planets with similar chemical make-up to do so? Or could it be that there are other elements unknown to humans that can create and sustain what we consider “intelligent life”? If possible, would these living beings be anything like humans or far different beyond imaginable? These are questions scientific research can only analyze and attempt to answer.

  • Parenting Style Of Makayla's Mother

    720 Words  | 2 Pages

    My best friend Makayla is the oldest of three children. She was the first, the one who made her mom a mother. When she would cry, mom would be there. When friends would fall away or hurt words would be spoken, mom would be there to discuss every aspect of the problem. So in the way of responsiveness, her mom was on top. However, this was not always what Makayla would have wanted. When she would be hurting, Makayla’s mom would come and try and help, talk it through and maybe go shopping to make it all feel better, when really all Makayla wanted to do was be alone for a while. She was always allowed to express her opinion, but when she confronted her mother, and asked to be left alone, she would take it as a personal offence. She could not understand why Makayla would not want to talk to her, why her efforts to make it all better were not meeting her needs. So in the way of warmth, there seemed a lack. While she was always quick to intervene, her presence shone a less

    My mother, Kari Jenson, is one of the most important people in my life. She gave birth to me, helped me learn to walk and so many other things that I find amazing. I cannot begin to fathom how much patience she had to have to deal with me all the time as a child.

  • Personal Narrative Essay: The Life Of A Childhood

    1016 Words  | 3 Pages

    It 's ludicrously ironic now, but as child her logic made perfect sense, and I reasoned myself out of blaming her. She was right. I was wrong. She only mocked me subjected me to strange accusations and verbal cruelty, and we had always done something, anything wrong. After years of constant uncertainty, belittling, and the mounting awareness that my mother was losing her grip on ordinary behavior, I was beginning to realize that I had been afraid. Without a trusted adult telling me in a multitude of ways that everything I did was suspect and somehow bad, I regained a shred of emotional security. I fully realize how strange it is that it took me so long to realize this was a form of abuse, but anything can seem normal when you don 't know anything different. It 's now clear why I looked forward so passionately to overnight visits with friends, and why watching them interact with their mothers, easily, lovingly, and unafraid, made me feel so cold and so perplexing ly angry. I was jealous of any parent-child relationship that wasn 't rooted in fear and uncertainty. On my darker days, I still feel that twinge of envy. Today I speak to my mother only sometimes, and never in any great depth. There 's nothing below the surface that would be pleasant to

    ...;   I like to believe that I've accepted my self-induced isolation from her with grace, but I must admit that I do hold the hope of bridging the gap between my mother and I.  I also hold the hope of amending myself for all the times I've knowingly and purposefully hurt her.  Although she is not a god, as I originally assumed, she is a good woman.  She has raised me, sheltered me, and loved me for over seventeen years without asking for more than casual chores in return.  I believe that the greatest compliment I could ever give my mother is to grow up to be exactly what she wants me to be.  I want to make her happy.  My gift to her will be my success in life, so that when she's old and gray, and she's knitting me a hideous sweater in her creaky rocking chair, she can sigh, and mumble to herself, "Wow, it was worth it."
