Through the eyes of a jaded 5-year-old, everything was but a perfect utopia, neither a problem nor a care in the world.…

    On any given evening, music could be heard drifting through the streets as it seeped through windows and doorways of bars and lounges. The true nature of the tunes could be felt then, out in the dimly lit streets as it permeated the thick, humid southern air. The wild energy carried out into the night like a ghostly memory, bittersweet in its distant warmth. Music was the lifeblood of the city, the birthplace of jazz. New Orleans, 1953, nurturing the unique blend of rhythm and blues as it poured throughout the city.…

Remen demonstrates that only by breaking away from the bureaucratic and emotionless medical narrative, and instead, by simply offering open ears and a hand to hold for those who are most afraid, can create a sense of inner-peace and an acceptance of death for those dying of terminal illnesses.…

Visiting Florida taught me many skills on being independent, mentally, and how easy and fun it is just to be to yourself sometimes. It all started Christmas eve when I got home to find my presents from “Santa” there before we even went to bed. My parents had planned on taking a vacation to Florida for Christmas break to see my grandparents, but we were unable to also get my parents there.…

    The Comfort of Ignorance Much of my life has been filled with blissful ignorance about the world. Growing up, I was consumed by the little problems of my life and never thought twice about the hardships of others. However, as a self-absorbed fourteen year-old, I found that although ignorance is comfortable, it blocks the true reality of what the world is.
