“Every experience, no matter how bad it seems, holds within it a blessing of some kind. The goal is to find it.” - Buddha.
Life throws all kind of things at you. To make the most of these experiences, or “bad days,” you look at them from a new perspective and learn from them. As people, we all have an emotional moment that has scarred us for life, and we never want to talk about it again because we think this is how problems go away. Problems do not go away without the person being willing to talk about them. For many of us, relationships are an area that we will never understand and forever hold an emotional connection to. They can be with friends, family, or just a random stranger, but no matter who you are, we all have a moment in time where we have been broken. This is the story of how I was broken. About now you are thinking that I am about to tell you about a random boy that no one reading this will ever know. This is not correct at all, my story is not a story of a boy, but a story of a best friend. I will never truly understand what happened, and all I have been the story with the ability to tell it. For the sake of this story, I will call my ex-best friend April. We had been friends ever since we were in second grade. I remember the day like it was yesterday. It was my first day ever of public school; I was

    The experience that I had was when I broke my left hand in a high school football game. The quote that influenced my experience is by Yehuda Berg “On one hand, we know that everything happens for a reason, and there are no mistakes or coincidences.

    “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” It means that the way we treat people affect how they feel and can not be forgotten. No matter you treat others good or bad it is still not forgotten. From a personal experience, I have learned that I can’t forget how I was treated in my life. Six years ago, I was in third grade.…

    It is estimated that over 100,000 students miss school every day due to fear of being bullied. Since I was little I always had many friends, especially in middle school, one friend in particular, Eduardo. Eduardo was being bullied by a bunch of big kids. I never really paid much attention to it, until it happened to me. One day walking to my next class with my new Nike shoes that my mom had got me the day before, everyone complimented me on them, then Fredi, some dude that was irritating with me since the school year began, squinted at my shoes and smiled and luaghed and said "where did your mom get them from?…

    Personal Narrative Why is failure the best teacher? I am going to answer this question using personal stories as examples. Failure is the best teacher because no matter what it changes a person, if someone fails and gives up it shows them that they didn’t really want to succeed badly in the first place, if someone fails and uses their failures to then succeed than they learned what it took to make their endeavour go right. We learn from failure by deciding how we are going to react to it and depending on that reaction, it can be a large change, or a small change.…

    I think everyone can relate to some sort experience that has happened in your life when you thought that all was well, but the reality was that it wasn’t. It took something really tragic to happen for you to find out that someone you loved had secrets. All of the things that you thought of that person is shattered into a million pieces and you’re left there trying to sort through them trying to choose the ones you want to hang on too and the ones that you would sweep up and throw away forever. The conversations that you have with those you love sometimes still leave unanswered answers to why someone that was supposed to take care of you decided that someone was more important than you. It was March 1st, 1993, my Grandmother has passed away 4 days earlier.…

    Growing Up in a Broken Home and What it Has Taught Me Growing up I had typical childhood experiences, but unlike some of you I grew up in a broken home. Many people would say I got the short end of the stick; however, I believe it has in some ways made me a better person. It was not because of the broken home, tons of other people grew up that way, it was the completely opposite lifestyles I observed in both homes that changed me. It has taught me many life lessons, including the fact that a man does not have to be your father to be a dad.…
