An example of sacrificing for the sake of your family would be people who choose to immigrate to the United States to work, and send money back to their families. In their country that they migrated from. I think it is so horrible and sad for them to do it, but they do it for their families. No matter what a family is going through, family will always come first at some point.…

Wonderfully delicious, cherry fruit is packed with full of health-benefiting nutrients and unique antioxidants. In fact, cherries’ sweet or sour flavors are both well recommended by doctors and health educators for its nutritious benefits, such as preventing against such dangerous disease like cancer, or help boosting the immune system to combat anything that may harm the body, the list can go on. But often times, when we are buying cherries at a vegetable market, or a supermarket and whatnot, we do not spend time contemplating on the true history of cherries—where are they made? Or by who/whom are they made? Or what kind of labor it took?…

For example, say aliens came down from space, they start to attack us and steal our water. Obviously, we all love water because it keeps us alive. So, many of us would sacrifice our lives if it meant keeping the entire human race alive. Something I would die for is music. I cannot imagine a life where we could not listen to Jon Bellion.…

In supporting the Andersons, I would never have done what Smith did. Mr. Smith does not have the right to refuse to give service to the Andersons. It is his own private business but he does not have the right to refuse service to anyone he wants to whether it being he doesn’t like them for their race, color, sex, ethnicity and sexuality. Mr. Smiths actions are wrong and therefore not right at all. It isn't morally acceptable.…

The majority of school aged children used to walk to school, played more outside, and were more active in sports. This resulted in children burning more calories than school meals provided.…
An Eye for an Eye When turning on the television, radio, or simply opening the local newspaper, news of arrests, murders, kidnappings, rape, and other such tragedies bombard people. Rarely is there an occasion where people can go throughout a day in this world without hearing of these events. There is a risk one takes when he/she decides to pull a trigger or plunge a knife, but around 1754 B.C. the stakes were even higher. “An eye for an eye” was the motto back when everything was done exactly as it sounded. If a person were to destroy the eye of another person, the man would get his eye taken out; this is why the phrase “an eye for an eye” was made (ushistory.org).…
