Hope That We Can Be Together Soon

Sunday school. We also did go to a catholic school. There are going to be times when this is going to still happen because we are not perfect people. So why should it matter what we say and do? Yes, this also is going to mean that we are failing as people. But we can’t quit doing it we are sinners. So why should we stop. Okay, so this also could mean that we will lose those friends that are around us and we want to be true friends with. Sure we are not going to be perfect, but we should try to…

“I know, I know, just bear with me for a minute. Whether we like it or not, the Common Core State Standards are here to stay. So, by a show of hands, how many of you know what the Common Core is?” Every hand in the room went up. “Okay, who would like to give me a thumbnail sketch?” Several hands rose excitedly. “Yes, you,” James said, pointing to a boy in the back row. “The Common Core is another blatant attempt by the federal government to take over control of public education, and centralize…

We agree, this is not the manner in which one should conduct oneself. What she is putting everyone through is wrong. Marrying a stranger is a ridiculous and dangerous thought. It could bring a long list of problems.” Consuelo’s heart bled when she implored “But think of Mauricio. He brought himself a ring and a tuxedo. He is prepared to stand at the altar Saturday. Instead he will have to be dropped off at the nut house.” Sol felt her angst, “We have thought about him. But, in the end she will…

We live in a time where no one really believes in monogamy anymore. Everyone is so dead set on being “independent” or enjoy their youth by “enjoying” the company of the opposite sex. No one wants to find someone who truly makes them happy at least that’s how it seems. Why do we feel the need to be alone and deny something that can potentially be real? I believe that through all that bravado we are all scared. Loneliness terrifies us, but being hurt by someone precious to us or hurting them is…

We're dating. By 'we' I mean my husband of 27 years and of course me. John decided a few months ago that he wanted to make some major changes. John has always been incredibly conservative. Watching every penny, worrying about every event, predicting all possible outcomes and then sort of holding his breath to see if his predictions would come true. These qualities may sound dull as you read them, but the truth is that they've made him a terrific husband and devoted father. We've always known…

looked down at him, and saw blood dripping out of his skull. Matt fell to his knees, and started praying to the Virgin of Guadalupe. He prayed that if he had a soul, for her to spare him from hell and still allow him to join Celia and Maria in a time soon to come. Matt looked up and saw Tam Lin standing in front of him. Matt stood up and walked over to the truck. He climbed in and imagined himself back in the small house in the eejit fields, wishing he had never busted out the window and jumped…

Throughout the world many people are scared and feel like there is no hope for them, they go through countless going, pushing, fighting through the tough times. They can do it because they have hope. Hope, an essential element of survival, and up brings life and gives opportunity to a fresh start, we tend to use hope from religious practices or saying prayers to ones have been deceased. Hope everywhere and everyone has it inside if them My life wasn’t always planned out, 18 year old, senior year…

as humans, I'm either left in shock or awe. Reading the pieces Jonathon Livingston Seagull, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and Night has made me take a closer look into humanity recently. I am reminded that we as a species can accomplish amazing things, if we were to work together. We can bring out the best in each other, pushing ourselves beyond our percieved limits. But, it is far easier to let humanity slip into feelings of hatred, feelings that one type of person is better than another.…

in the face of hostility. Ralph organizes the boys and keeps them working together trying to build a semblance of the civilization they had at home. Ralph manages to keep a calm clear head while others panic. He also keeps the hope of rescue alive never giving into his own savage side. Shortly after a plane crashes on a deserted island Ralph uses a conch to call to the other boys in an attempt to gather them all together in one place. Ralph was a skinny fair-haired boy of twelve years who had,…

I hope you are doing well in England. My worries have yet to out burst with the politics happening here in America. One little mistake and a state can get outraged and leave the union. I am with our president Abraham Lincoln that wants to do good in this world. I this morning read in a speech that he gave with the thoughts of saving the Union. There is so much going on with the union. If one thing is done there is some that won’t be happy will argue for there rest of their lives if they can…
