veryone in our lives has a single happiness. It depends on the circumstances, perspective, and the feeling of us. In particular, my happiness is my own family because it gives me the strange warmth and it’s always around me. I never want to lose it. Therefore, that is important to my life and I always respect it. How come I say my happiness is the family. It has three reasons makes me think it is important in my life. At first, I think I am a lucky person because I always have my parents stay…

1. Chittister writes that "Benedictine spirituality is about listening to four realities: the Gospels, the Rule, one another, and the world." Why do you think that Chittister believes that listening to all four of these is important? How would you finish the following sentence: "I believe that being a faithful disciple of Jesus Christ requires a willingness to listen to ______________." a. It is important to listen to them all because, we read the scriptures “faithfully” but we fail to apply…

Decisions are made on a daily basis. These decisions can range from simple to much more difficult, and may include: whether or not to have coffee in the morning, what car to buy, or asking someone to marry you. Decisions are one thing you can’t escape from in this life. I have made some really good and really bad decisions in my life. One choice that sticks out in my mind was the night I snuck out of my house when I was a freshman in high school. This decision changed my life drastically. When I…

Effective Follower My weaknesses when it comes to being an effective follower pertains to my lack of interest in requesting performance feedback. I tend to believe that no news is good news and that if there is not anything that I am inherently doing wrong, then I should not be worried. I feel that this is a weakness because, as an employee that is striving to climb to the top of the business hierarchy, I should be doing everything that I can in order to improve as a worker. Another weakness…

Mothers working has increased dramatically since the 1970s. Women have evolved since the late 1900s. Many work in work fields alongside men. Becoming mothers does not stop many of them from still working. A lower percent of mothers stay at home, although, it should not be for every woman. Women should not feel obligated to be a stay at home mother; they should be able to be independent, to be a role-model to their children, and to be capable to bring a larger income into the home. Most…

Ever since I was little I always wondered why I was never good enough for anything. I felt like I was not good enough for my family, and I still believe this to this day. My family treats me so different than they do to anyone else. I know I was never good enough in school because no one ever wanted me in their class. I strived for straight “A”s and sometimes that just was not enough. I wanted all the extra credit and higher grades than anyone. I made it a mission to do everything that I could…

As an Iranian-American, I have had two very different worlds growing up, both of which have shaped me into the person I am today. One is my home in the Bay Area, the other is my native Iran. I went to Iran for the first time when I was three years old and fell in love with it. I remember the novel feeling of having an uncle who would take me out to get fries late at night, and being surrounded by people who loved and cared about me. In Iran, I felt that I had endless love and support. In the…

When I think back upon all of the life changing experiences I have encountered in the past, I tend to give myself a pat on the back. Because when I look back, I see all that I have overcome and accomplished with the help of my mother, brothers and role models. Nevertheless I can honestly say that I am proud of who I am today, who I 've grown up to be. I am currently seven-teen years of age and I will be eight-teen years old in two weeks. I am undeinably positive that I have been in a greater…

wings are unique unto only them, and Lucifer’s wings came as quite the shock for Hadraniel. Where Hadraniel’s wings were a deep dark blue and splashed with an intensely vibrant red-orange color at the tips, Lucifer’s wings were pitch black with one single lonely pure white feather at the end of his left wing. It made Hadraniel kind of sad to see the little white feather, but he wasn’t given time to dwell as Lucifer was becoming…

Growing up as a kid I never really enjoyed reading and writing. It was and probably will always be my least favorite subject, nothing against you my lovely English professor, but I just don’t enjoy it. The only time I really enjoyed reading as a child was when I got my first leap pad and I eventually destroyed it and it was probably within 2 weeks of getting it, so I wasn’t interested for long. I don’t have much memory as a kid with reading and writing at home, because my parents never really…
