Improved Essays
The presents are unwrapped, the delighted squeals have passed, and your hyped-up-by-sugar children are enjoying some sun-time fun time outside with their new cricket set. The last thing you want to hear while you're getting Christmas dinner ready is the not-so-delightful crash when the new cricket ball meets some glass. It is difficult to find an emergency repairer on Christmas day, and you probably don't want to pay that call-out fee anyway, so what can you do to protect the smashed window until the repairer arrives the next day?

Place two fingers on the glass away from the crack, and give the glass a gentle push to make sure it is not moving in the frame. If there is no movement, the glass should be fine until you get the emergency glass repairer over.

    If the Newseum is torn down, the first amendment will not have a place to be celebrated just for itself, so there will be no place to celebrate the first American Constitutional freedom. President Trump is pressuring Congress into passing a bill that will start a project to make room for new monuments. The project will consist of tearing down monuments that the government feels are unnecessary. The project will ruin DC and the American spirit. If the bill does pass, the Newseum should definitely not be torn down since it is a reminder of what America is, it will have horrible economic effects on the country, and tearing it down will diminish the American spirit.…

    There is a significant metaphor that recurs throughout the passage that compares Alexander to something vulnerable and shattered such as glass. The author’s choice of words such as "fractured" "shards" and “splintered” connote glass and all of its frailty. It also reflects her desire to “see” straight to herself through the glass.

    Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:13,14 Every day God's salvation draws nearer, which means we must be more diligent and persevering in our walk with the Him. We do not have the "luxury of time" to be consumed, preoccupied, or even fatigued in our day-to-day responsibilities that we become distracted to what God wants to accomplish in each of our lives and in His church! We are nearing the day of the "coming of our Lord and Savior," which signifies the need to pick-up our pace so that we will finish our earthly race and hear our Lord proclaim, "Well done thou good and faithful servant..."…

    Walking in the woods, trekking through miles and miles of goliath trees and gurgling brooks, patches of bramble, and the occasional duck-ridden pond. Where did those days go? I used to spend hours in the woods thinking I do not need to do anything else, but to head home for lunch. Yes, there I was, the 15-year-old who was not prepared for the next year to come, and what would come of my days spent in the morning dew of the woods. I’ve thought about this recently, and realize that I was ill-prepared for everything.…
