From the moment we become old enough to talk, we have a desire for more in our lives. To be filled with something we currently don’t have. Os Guinness, the author of “The Call” refers to this as a longing to find our higher purpose (Guinness). A desire to do something more for our lives, something that benefits society (Guinness). He refers to this as our call (Guinness). Both the authors Quentin Schultze and Os Guiness through their works “Here I Am” and “The Call” spend a great deal of time of…

Ever noticed how quickly time fly’s by? A single day retains only twenty-four hours; ones individual life is contrived up of these single seconds, hours, and minutes. Before it’s even realized that time has passed. How that time was spent is inconsequential. I realized that no matter how that time was used; that day will come to a halt. When it ends there is a series of questions you can ask yourself. In my opinion there is one question that trumps the others. Did I have a positive effect on the…

“Can you promise me something?” Maybe it was the serious tone in his voice, or, just that particular arrangement of words, but Shawn’s question made Celia panic. “That depends…” she said with hesitance. “Promise me you’ll wipe the extra ice cream off my face before we leave.” Celia instantly relaxed and began laughing. “You know,” said Shawn, his tone heavy with sarcasm, “it’s rude to laugh at people. Especially those with disabilities.” Celia gasped dramatically. “How dare you accuse me of…

Being one 's self is a hard thing to do in the world that we live in. Everyone is blinded by acceptance, and recognition. The idea of what we are supposed to be or how we are supposed to act evolves the person we are. The Sanctuary of the Outcast is a book that greatly relates to this essay, and is actually, the basis for this essay. The book shows how making the perfect image destroyed a man 's life, but also, gave it meaning. Neil White was always a man who wanted to be "on top." He wanted to…

Believe me… I sat in the cell waiting to hear the verdict of my future. Am I going to die? Am I going to live? Will I see my mom again? All these questions going through my head while realizing 12 guys who don’t know me are going to set my future up for me. I woke up this morning absolutely certain I was going to die, thinking it would only take them 10 minutes and I would be dead in the next 24 hours. 2 hours, 2 hours I have been sitting here wondering if I was going to die, those men taking…

Have you ever felt like you don 't care about other people? I have to admit, I have. My first thought of today was not, "how can I help my fellow human beings?" It was more, how can I get to work on my goals as soon as possible for as long as possible without getting interrupted. Can you blame me? Everyone is looking after themselves so, why should I look after them? This is mentality of most people I know. We work for ourselves, we seek pleasure, we avoid pain, we try to take care of our…

My father was very protective over our family sword. He was so protective that I, Princess Cordelia, his daughter, couldn't even touch it. Not a single poke or a tap. It was awful to be honest. Father had told me many stories when I was younger of the battles that took place on this soil hundreds of years ago and how my ancestors fought to conquer this land with that same sword. And after listening to them, I couldn't resist. It was impossible. But I knew I couldn't. Father would be crushed if…

I am a 10-Gallon person who has been enduring relationships with pint size people! Oh. My. God! This is what I heard Bishop T.D. Jakes say in one of Oprah's Lifeclasses on TV. It resonated so deeply with me and opened my eyes to the reason I have so often felt frustrated. The Pint People may be actually giving me all they have, but to my 10-Gallon self, it feels like, "Is this all you got?!" I cannot change anyone or anything, but what I can control is with whom I wish to spend my energy…
