Everyday I see people wanting to stand up for something, but don’t do it. People get so scared because they don’t want someone to judge them or lose someone they care about. I had stood up for my sister Hannah when “rumors” were going around about her. I had lost friends because of it and I would not change that. Hannah is my baby sister and no friend or person is more important than her. I wasn’t going to let people say things about her or call her some inappropriate things. I had stood…

Heroes of our world In our society I believe that we go through a lot of Campbell 's stages, but one of the most common is the denial of the call. How many times have we seen some people get the opportunity to do something, but they choose not to do it, because they are scared that they will not be able to accomplish what is expected of them. The most common Campbell stage in real life has to be the road of trials. Everyone goes through the road of trial. How can I prove it? Your personality…

The Down Pours of Life I’ve always listened to people tell me that in life the bad things will come and go but the good things last forever. Today I am here to test that theory. My hypothesis to this theory is that bad things don’t always come and go and good will not always last forever. I feel this way because looking back at my life the bad things didn’t always leave and the good didn’t always stay. Here’s why I feel the way that I feel about this whole theory. I was born in Atlanta, and…

Shadow Times 32 days 14 hours 22 minutes That’s how long it takes them to take over. First, you think it’s just dreams, then you start sleepwalking, when you aren’t asleep, but then the worst part is when you start doing the things you thought were nightmares, but not knowing that you did. This is the Shadow Times. ⬥톗톘⬥톗톘⬥톗톘⬥톗톘⬥ Tiona’s mother was worried about her when she refused to go to school. “Tiona, is somebody picking on you sweetie?” Tiona’s mom was sitting on her bed next to her…

The walk home from the local football club was dark. Simple as that. It was a clear winter night, and there was no moon in the sky. The only relief from the darkness was the occasional streetlight. The cold air was refreshing on my body, warm from the copious amount of alcohol I had consumed tonight. Georgia wasn’t going to be happy. She thinks my drinking is a bad influence on the kids. She doesn’t want them to grow up like me. That’s always a comforting thing to hear from your wife. I know it…

Taking care of people has always been my passion ever since I was a little girl. Every time my mother and I would have to go to the grocery store I always love to pick out the things we needed and helped my mother to put the groceries up. I even used to try to help the bagger if there was a bagger with the groceries, even if they were too heavy for me. As I got older I kept that same helping attitude. I helped out in as many ways as I could by volunteering downtown to feed the homeless, I even…

Have you ever stopped for a second to analyze your life? Many times when someone struggles, it is because of their outlook. Being negative about the obstacles that are faced in life is no way to get by. Taking a second to analyze, and possibly regroup, is never something that anyone should be ashamed of. I believe that with a positive outlook on life a person can do whatever they put their mind to. For the past few weeks, I have been going through an obstacle in life that has not been easy for…

Conducing the analysis, I have discovered that everyone including myself sees me differently. A persons point of view is going to be different on their public self, private self, and their ideal self. Mostly everyone wishes they could be different or like someone they know, also what someone does in their spare time they might not do in public which starts your focus on your private and public self. Someone’s private self is how they are when they’re alone. When I’m alone it gives me…

Day by day, our life continues to change as a result of a gap between my parents and myself. As my mother, Guadalupe and my dad Rene continue to live their lives as if these changes did not affect them, they will not understand the struggles of my teenage lifestyle. For me, my life is completely different compare to my parents when it comes communication with the outside world. Besides the fact that our way of communicating is different, my sense of fashion and expression is beyond what a…

I Believe Speech: Knowing that you know, that you know Knowing that you know, that you know, is a mouthful agreed but what is it that I mean when I say that? You have to break it down one by one. So everyone agrees that you are sitting here in a college classroom listening to me speak? So if you say yes to that? Then essentially everyone is agreeing that you know this to be true. That is the “first knowing”. Now how do you know that to be true? Well break it down, how do you know…
