I Believe

I Believe in Competitive Swimming Swimming is my life. Joining the swim team has changed my life more than I ever thought it would. Since I joined my weeks have been filled with practice and more practice. Weekends are filled with meets and going to events. I went through a lot of years just so I could join the team. Being part of a team is amazing and full of fun. Swim has changed my life in a lot of ways. From being part of a team, to getting up early for meets. I don’t know what I would be…

Coffee Girl I believe in coffee. It goes with everything; the busiest days, the laziest, every book, newspaper, chat, and every mood. I believe in coffee as a form of survival. To wake me up each morning, to keep me going mid afternoon. It can comfort you, energize you and inspire you. I believe in coffee. I used to hate it. My Dad was the only one in our home that would drink it. He wakes up at 5 AM everyday, whether its Monday or Saturday, and pours the strong, hot brew right down his throat…

I believe in change and self-determination. When I entered high school, I was the kind of person who never studied and always did everything last minute. I soon realized that I could not be successful with that habit, so I ended up changing that and improved my study ethics. So the reason I believe in change is because when I need to change something about myself, my surroundings, or something that truly needs it, I can change it. Throughout my life, I had found times when I would be talking to…

I Believe in the Promise of America I pledge allegiance, to the flag, of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. The American flag is a symbol. It symbolizes the thirteen colonies and the fifty states all as one. Not only that, but it also symbolizes the rights we fought for when we were still in the clutches of Britain. We have the freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the right to a speedy…

the third part an appraisal of what Rausch writes on a specific issue: I believe in God. In chapter three of Thomas Raunchy book, I believe in God, it starts with an opening article of the apostles creed , “ I believe in God the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth((Thomas P. Rausch, SJ, I believe in God ,Publication Year: 200, pp 31-62)” Which is considered as the foundation of everything else which Christians believe. On the other hand, this phrase has been a cause of many debates…

I believe in peer support. After the birth of my first daughter in 1981, I joined La Leche League and found strength in connecting with other new mothers. From 1986 to 1996, I was a La Leche League Leader with the Irondequoit group. By then, I was the mother of five, four of whom I homeschooled; this was another area where peer support made the difference between muddling through and thriving. In 2004, I was devastated at my diagnosis of breast cancer. Thanks to the advice of my midwife, I…

This I Believe... Growing up, every Sunday I would go over to my dad's house. Sunday at his house during football season was “Football Sunday.” There was not one Sunday that my dad let me watch my Disney shows, but I didn’t exactly complain either. Watching football with my dad, use to be one of my favorite things. He would explain what was going on if I was lost. We would get junk food and order pizza. I knew when the game was on, not to talk, just cheer and when a bad call was on, to…

I believe in football. The sound of the swish when the ball is thrown, “Way to go,” said by my teammates. I enjoy being part of a team and working hard for the team and for the game. There are more than 30 people per team and 30 friendships that can be made. All 30 guys work together to be the best. There are 11 players on the field at one time and most have a chance to score. Football is everything for those 30 guys on a team. Although, football can be hard at times, when I play with my team,…

“I believe I can fly, I believe I can touch the sky…” - R. Kelly (singer/songwriter). Roughly 20 million people in the U.S. have a fear of flying. I am not one of those people. I have wanted to be at the controls since I was in diapers. I believe that flying a plane was one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life, while being the scariest thing I have ever done. By getting ready for my flight, flying the plane and landing the plane, without crashing, I learned that if you put your mind…
