Hard Times

and we started to see a counselor. Our communication grew seldom, and I started to emotionally separate from my spouse. Regardless of the conflict, my spouse and I decided to stay together. We stuck to counseling, and after two years, and a lot of hard work, we realized all was not lost. We ended up clicking back into place. Instead of divorcing, we worked through our differences and reconnected on a deeper level than ever before. Through late adulthood, my spouse and I were stronger than ever…

In this paper I will touch on a few different topics: personal strengths, area of interest in nursing, and a few personal goals. Personal Strengths I believe what defines me as a person is that I do not give up easily. I will practice a skill over and over again until I understand exactly how I am supposed to do something. Even when I am stressed, I will not give up. I will make time to get all of my homework done, go…

bridge in Santa Monica overlooking the beach I take a deep sigh of relief that I’m back on the ground safe. The air was so summery it was refreshing to be in weather I can enjoy for a change. I have family that I look forward to seeing and spending time with. Making unforgettable memories in adventurous unfamiliar places was always something I enjoyed since a child.

perseverance, hard work, and belief in me has always been my inspiration to strive towards higher goals, and has also made me realize how I have to overcome my own weaknesses to make my dreams a reality. My very first great influential encounter was with my piano teacher, Janette. She was my very first piano teacher for as long as I could remember until she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Despite her struggles, she was the first person to ever inspire me to set a goal for myself. At…

many important events in my life that I have learned from but one particular event comes to mind. Since I was 15, I have been a member of Catlett Volunteer Fire and Rescue. Being a member I can give back to my community and help those that are in a time of need.

This event took place about two miles away from my house when a call…

If you are really looking to be a seal you will have to go through tons of difficult training that will push you to your limits. The training is split into three incredibly hard phases that you have to go through if you plan to be a seal, and these phases are not going to be easy to get through. The first phase is eight weeks long, but if you are injured during training, you will be sent all the way back to the beginning…

Motivational teacher Brian Tracey said that "while good habits are hard to develop but easy to live with, bad habits are the opposite since they are easy to develop but hard to live with."
