Fear can be a strong motivator. It is one of the most effectual and common forms of motivation that have helped people to conquer and overcome struggles. Depicted in her latest best-seller, Room, Emma Donoghue tells an extraordinary story of Jack and his Ma and how they used their fear as motivation to liberate themselves from Room and re-adapt to the modern world. Ma was kidnapped at the young age of nineteen and was forced to endure imprisonment in a single room for seven years, but her…

Freedom, the sweet feeling of being able to decide what to do and where to go, without the interference of others’ thoughts to sway one’s decision and way of life. The majority of people can agree that freedom is something that should be cherished and strived for. Afterall, freedom is what our Founding Fathers have fought for and declared in the Declaration of Independence. However, the majority of parents place restrictions onto the youth, which violates the so-called freedom they cherish. This…

We moved from Ohio just over two years ago to Historic Cocoa Village. We consider ourselves the only two residents of this town as we live in the true heart, above a shop front. It is for that reason that I thought it was a fantastic opportunity to learn the history of the place we call home. Hundreds of miles away on interstate 95 you can see signs for Historic Cocoa Village what is it about this town settled by fisherman that make it so appealing to both young and old alike. With its…

When I think about Bigfoot, I picture an image leaving its’ impression on the world. To some, there hasn’t been concrete physical evidence of a real Bigfoot but, everyone knows of its’ story. It has created its own “footprint” in the minds of millions. This is the same objective I have and hope to keep in my life. I want to make an impact on people, a BIG impact. During high school I have made impacts by being involved in student council and serving as the Student Body President this current…

Although I have lived inside this flesh for almost a quarter century, I still find it difficult to actually describe who I am, accurately. However, when I think about myself, my take on everyday life and my constant need to go somewhere new are two aspects that stand out among others. The SMX controller I have with me, helps me look at life differently. For me, life is basically the most difficult open world video game ever, as I cannot restart mission or start a new game whenever I feel like.…

We learn about our own identity and the identity of others through interactions with family, peers, organizations, institutions, media and other connections we make in our everyday life.” I know who I am now because of what I’ve learned about myself in past experiences.…

The world people live in today is better. This world experiences more and learns valuable life lessons. Life here is very vivid, lively, and colorful. Nothing in this world is perfect, but people’s lives are at the best they can be This world experiences much more than Jonas’s community, and learns substantial life lessons. Everyone has differences. They are able to experience emotions such as sorrow or joy that cause them to be who they are and their differences bring them together as a…

I think the boys felt like they NEEDED to rebel in order to become themselves. Their teacher definitely inspired them to learn how to be free spirits. They created their own club which was transcendentalism in itself. They disobeyed their administrative and met in this little cave to talk about poetry. Though sometimes it was more of just a hangout. They refused to conform to the rest of the school and started to go to parties, seeing girls, and acting in plays. Self reliance is somewhat…
