Personal Narrative: A Walk On The Sidewalk

Decent Essays
Positive:
The sun was shining bright at Market Commons as I walked barefoot on the hot but yet comfy sidewalk. Children were laughing and playing on the sweet green grass, and their parents were swinging in hammocks, as the cool wind blew through the air. Pedestrians passed each other on the sidewalk and stopped to conversate. As I kept walking, I stumbled upon a Rock Climbing wall and decided to climb it. The course texture in my hand made me feel like I was on the side of a mountain. Time passed by so I felt I would move on. I walked over to the shops and decided to go into the garden to sit and read. The soft aroma of the flowers calmed me as I sat down with my book. The gentle breeze from the alley way rocked me back and forth as I dove

    Every Life Matters I really only started understanding the meaning of abortion once one of my mom’s friends had one. Before that I had very little knowledge about abortion. My parents have always taught me to stand by what I believe and that others may have different beliefs. They always told me that I would meet people that would disagree with me and what I believe not only when it came to these kind of topics but many other things as well. Being told that, they told me to always respect people’s beliefs and their points of view because everyone has the right to stand by what they believe, just like I do.…

    I gestured to my dad to keep going and that I would follow him in a few minutes. I dug out my water bottle and drank it. What little water that remained in it was warm and made me more thirsty. I set it down and looked at the trail, at the stream of people going up and down the trail, at the evening sun. I took the time to admire the trail.…

    I took a hike on the High Acres nature path, with my Mom, Sister and golden retriever, Tobey. When I first entered the trail, the path started really wide and began to get narrower. Along both sides of the trail were big tall weeds hanging over and rubbing against you. When we were getting close to the pond you could hear the different types of birds chirping, grasshoppers clicking, and bullfrogs croaking. We approached our first intersection, and decided to go left on to the old, white, wooden bridge.…

    As a child growing up in Rhode Island, the smallest state in the Union, the idea of a vast planet brimming with civilization and culture was more like something out of a fairy tale than it was reality. So, when my father announced that we would be leaving the country to go to Scotland, the home of his and my ancestors, my world began to expand at a rapid pace. This trip could not have been timed more perfectly. The summer of 2007 marked the end of fourth grade, my first year at Saint Mary Academy Bay View.…

However, many people around me had; whether it was basketball, cheerleading, or track - they had found a purpose that drove them.

    At a younger age, I would say I believed that I can only trust myself and my mother, this is because as a little kid my mom would always tell me that there are bad people in the world and that giving them any information about anything can be very harmful. But as I grew up and realized what was actually happening in my country I knew there were millions of others that were suffering against the “bad people” and we could only do something about it if the whole community came together to help. It was at that time when I was about 25, when I started to put some effort into trying to establish more just conditions within my country especially after the implication of extremely high food prices. This is when I started my first strike involving my…
