Real life experience

that one person in our life that has changed us for the better, that person in my life is my coach Jeanna. I began gymnastics when I was 5 years old and Jeanna was my coach from when I started to when I ended at age 17. During those 12 years she taught me so many things that helped during my gymnastics career and things that will help me in the future. Without my coach I would be nowhere near the person I am today and I am very thankful that I have gotten to spend most of my life with such an…

Before the invention of the telephone, communication was founded solely on face-to-face communication. However, in recent years, the internet has come to the forefront.

“Sithe Eani Nothestaree. Afethe Scorgethe Propheir.” Her hands raised, fire burning from her palms. Flames raced up her arms as she stared into the eyes of the creature that had, in essence, become this house. Had become a nightmare. The words came from nowhere and yet came from everywhere. Angela’s mind and body were pure instinct. She wanted to reign it in, but she felt it taking her the way it once took Esme. She opened her eyes and saw the Sun. A burning ball of gas and light which was…

David is helplessly trying to comprehend how this child could be the “real” David when he is standing right there. Overwhelmed, David smashes the other boy to bits in a fit of hatred. This scene from A.I. leads me to wonder if John Keats is correct in saying that “nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced”. Before addressing the title, a few terms must first be clarified. It is important to recognize how even though real may refer to an individual’s beliefs, what the humans and David,…

not be soothed by your voice, like a real infant. The RealCare Baby did not have a regular routine like an infant would. With a real baby, you cannot feed it four times within 40 minutes. If someone does this, their baby will gain excess weight and could cause it future eating habits. A real baby will usual fuss before having a full-out cry. With the RealCare Baby, it would cry randomly and without warning, unlike a real baby. In ways, the RealCare Baby and a real baby are also similar. With…

These lenses are experiences, and they can have major consequences to one’s quality of life. The experiences one buys and commoditize for status elude them the farthest away from the truth, and are the most spoiling for their character. Our money driven society feeds these illusions to individuals with a bias that they do not necessarily understand and purposefully…

In many cases when people experience their first relationships they…
