Father Time

It was hard at first but after a few weeks it became routine and now Saint Mary’s feels like my home. Discovering that SMC is my home I had to challenge myself and learn things I did not know before. I had to learn how to live with others, manage my time and how to speak up for myself.…

grow into a healthy young adult. Blanky is not a Savior, but a Guardian Angel in a form that God choose to create for us. Through all the hard times as a family we’ve always had a few moments that were supposed to tear us apart, but just like blanky we stayed strong and kept intact, because we knew that if our miracle cloth could get through the hard times in life, We could also. This blanket resembled a shield of force to block us from the demons that tried to attack us. I am truly blessed for…

I was once a strawberry in a Hansel and Gretel pageant when I was in nursery school and didn’t have the sense than to dance on my tiptoe with my arms in a circle above my head doing umbrella steps and being a perfect fool just so my mother and father could come dressed up and clap. You’d think they know better then to encourage that nonsense. I am not strawberry. I do not dance on my toes. I run. That is what I am all about. (p. 32, lines…

society, the time is not specified. This utopian society is based on sameness, where no colors, no emotions, no music, no animals, no weather exists. Both the book and the movie straight away give a breakdown of the society's rules and cultures, we are also introduced to Jonas, his family, and his friends. The conflict was the same in the book and the movie. As Jonas begins receiving the memories from the giver, he starts to feel new emotions, see new colors, and experience new things. Over…

out of time, I’m drowning in it. I cut myself and feel the bright red seconds bloom into peonies. I glare at the clock and the hours shatter at my side into a million nothings. Everyone moves on, everything moves on. Mocking me, while I’m stuck inside the walls of claustrophobia. It’s been six years since I’ve been fixed in the same position, the same room. Two thousand, nine hundred and ninety days, three million, one hundred and fifty three thousand, six hundred minutes. So much time to…

difficult times and consider who I am today, I think I would be most qualified to speak on Holiness because since Kairos I have learned that I am a valuable human being worthy of God’s love and capable of passing that love on. I had been thinking about throwing up for pretty much all of high school. I don’t think that I could give any specific details about the first time I tried, at the time it just didn’t feel significant. To ease your minds, I tried a very small fraction of the amount of…

years from now. The timing of death is uncertain, but the probability of death is fixed. Death is inevitable. Accepting that you will die enhances whatever time you have left of this life, especially if you do know that your time is soon expiring. Religion, opinion on past wrongdoings, society’s remembrance, age, support of loved ones and doctors, time remaining, and the concept of legacy help you accept the face of death and overcome wasteful stress on yourself and others. Religion is a…

I have. It taunts me night and day,” Eli replied. No lie there. He could hardly remember when it started, but he’d carried the temptation for a long time. The desire to shift loyalty. To take life rather than protect it was something he’d battled with for a long time. They all did but some more than others. He’d always thought it was a conscience choice to fall, but lately he questioned the numbers lost. Something was off. Logan chuckled and shoved Eva aside…

enforce the shared values of the company in both the short-term and long-term events. Planning for the short-term and opening a new store in China, may be slightly difficult since it is the first time the company deals with such an action. That is why every step needs to be well calculated. It is the first time when the executive needs to come up with a plan involving the inventory of the new store, how it will be maintained, and how supply of products is made. Laws and regulations of China when…

update technology to meet these standards. An improvement in technology will increase efficiency and effectiveness throughout the plant and a plan to implement these changes should be done over the span of 3 to 5 years. This time frame to update technology allows enough time for the updates to be made effectively and the new machines to be produced. The administrative offices are shabby, disorganized, and run inefficiently. Improving technology here will increase efficiency and effectiveness as…
