Eulogy For Father

Improved Essays
I have always been passionate about about joining the military. Since I was ten years old I knew I wanted to be apart of something bigger. I’ve dreamed about the day I’d see WEBB on my uniform. My cousin Shawn was my biggest inspiration for this. He struggled at home with his parents and life in general and everyone always doubted him but he got out of this town and made a name for himself that he can be proud of and that is what I intend to do. I’m just recently 18 as of February. So that means I’m a pisces, which would explain why I’m a very empathetic and an emotional person. My moms the reason why I’m interested in astrology, I'm grateful for us to be able to share an interest together. My mother and I are not as close as I would hope us to be, when I was growing up she was in and out of jail/prison a lot so I didn't have much of a mom figure in my life.

I wasn't as antisocial as I wanted to be but because of that I am thankful. I hung out with friends more, I did things on the weekends, I'd have get togethers to plan on the weekends; which I would love doing my my friends. Halloween 2015 I met my other half. If there was a male version of me, well i had found it. It was like I could finally breathe and feel comfortable again. I was given a sense of security, but with that there was also the constant abandonment. Nothing was ever constant and I began getting back into my old ways with staying in toxic situations. I wouldn't accept any advice from anyone and I refused to believe that this couldn’t last forever.

    The Day I Died Eulogy

    • 1116 Words

    Kelsey Palmer Anderson Astronomy October 31, 2014 "Even today, there are moments when what I do seems to me like an improbable, if unusually pleasant dream: to be involved in the exploration of Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn; to try to duplicate the steps that led to the origin of life on an Earth very different from the one we know; to land instruments on Mars to search there for life; and perhaps to be engaged in a serious effort to communicate with other intelligent beings, if such there be, out there in the dark of the night sky", I said this in 1973, and it held up till the day I died. I was born on November 9th in 1934. If I could describe myself back then, I'd say I was a childhood science fiction addict. It was when…

    Growing up, I was always surrounded by family and friends at all times. There was nothing to worry about but continue to be happy and live my life as it was going. As I began growing up, I got to understand more why people were put in your life and why you experienced different moments with different people. From this, I was starting to realize what life really is about. Being in a two-year relationship, then breaking up unpredictably taught me how to become independent of my own self, take care of myself, and have self-love before I want to take care of others and have a love for others.…

    If my mom and dad would have never split up, my mom never would have met my step dad, who showed me that a man could love and care for a child as his own even if they aren’t blood. He spent time with me, bought me nice clothes and toys, and basically spoiled me my entire childhood. He always believed in me, and pushed me beyond my limits, because he saw potential in me. I do not think any less of him because he isn 't my real dad. Another reason I 'm thankful for the way I was raised, is that the home I spent most of my time at led me to believe that everything in life is easy and everyone can have nice possessions and go on fancy vacations, but I learned that was not the case.…
