Believe... There's Magic in the Stars

favorite experience since arriving at the park was, since it was early in the day she hadn't done that much yet, but she did say that she, as well as her whole family really enjoyed Star Tours. Olivia nodded in agreement upon hearing this. Then I asked her if she believes in happy endings, and she said "I think if you can't believe in happy endings then that's a pretty sad way to live your life." I thought that this was a really fitting answer, especially when considering that the ride we were…

more depth and actually mean something. You see, music has the power to unite people, to heal the hurt, to empower, to take us away, to evoke memories from many years ago, to build you up, and to tear you back down again. It is the strongest form of magic and touches us emotionally where words alone can’t. It is an escape from the real world, the cheapest form of therapy, a drug you can’t ever overdose on, and a language we can all understand. For me to be able to write songs that have such a…

my last year in high school. “Come here Penny a fix Adam and Eve candle prepared.” my mother hand me the pink and red candle. “Oh Mom this stuff doesn’t work.” I replied as I held the candle looking though my glasses. “Ever made a wish upon a star?” a voice spoke from behind me stopping my heart in complete silence. I turn to see it was the store keeper Ms. Talbert. She was an elderly pale female who con my mother to buy prepared…

We choose what we want to believe. There is no proof of what was before one’s life or what will happen after one’s death. It all comes down to faith when observing the inexplicable. There is no defined purpose; therefore, an individual creates their own life meaning. Sunset Boulevard (1950), directed by Billy Wilder, is a black and white film, where Norma Desmond, a famous actress of the silent film era, cannot come to terms with her career’s end. Pan’s Labyrinth (2006), directed by Guillermo…

Diana Penner argued in the Indianapolis Star that if a student reads a book that contains controversial ideas, such as rebellion, believing in magic or dark arts, bullying, being mean to people, not doing homework, and so on, the book legitimizes the idea in students’ minds. Therefore, schools ban books with controversial topics, and discourage…

But what it means now is that they don't exist in any sense. That means that the motion of stars or the behavior of animals don’t obey these laws. The universe is just as a motion. But we as humans just can’t accept that. Curiosity struck and we try to make sense of it. We made the Principle of Regularity. We made things regular like a clock tick…

of his pocket. Working fast, he took the paperclip and picked the lock in less than ten seconds. “What? Who carries a paperclip in their pocket?” “Actually a lot of people do, but I can’t quite recall how this little guy got here... Oh right. I do believe I put this paperclip in my pocket a couple months ago at school. It’s probably been through the washer a few times," Sam and Noah were sniffling giggles. “ Well, I guess I’m glad you did that," Silently, the boys made their move. The three hid…

A handful of teams make this list without fail nearly every time: Chicago Bulls, Los Angeles Lakers, New York Knicks, Miami Heat, and for some reason, the Nets. The Nets believe their significant players in the free agent world as well, however, perception is not reality. When your best free agent signing over the last decade and a half is Andray Blatche—a man who was out of the NBA by age 28—you probably should reconsider…

absolutely throw a third version of the Hearties Family Reunion in Vancouver. I’m convinced that this worldwide Hearties movement is not a fluke and that it’s the single biggest reason why the show has continued through four seasons. But I also believe the Hearties are bigger than WCTH. This is a movement… community… that can outlive our show and be a force for good to be reckoned with in our culture for decades to come. The world absolutely has a shortage of family and faith-friendly…

people’s lives, including your own, it makes it much easier to remember. Many events that happened to take place in the New Testament are ones that are easily remembered several years later. More recently, Hitchens creates a new challenge claiming there’s simply not enough evidence to support the claim that there was ever existed. He thinks that if He ever did exist there would be more documentation than the New Testament. Hitchens also thinks that a number of the…
