Sit Down

know, it is really hard to sit in a therapist’s office, knowing the drill because you studied it, you went to school for this exact thing, but can’t seem to help your own child. You can barely get yourself through each and every day but you do so for your kids. They are the ones depending on you. You are more times than not their only voice in this crazy world. So you sit and listen with your hands neatly folded on your lap. You wipe away the single tear crawling down the side of your face and…

I wanted to let everything out. But I didn't know who to talk to or go to. Until one day in the summer, my grandma called me and asked if I wanted to go with her to a convention. I say to myself, “Might as well go out and have some fun.” So I wrote down the information of when we were going and what time she coming to pick…

to be lynched over in the first place it wasn’t even true. The men that had lynched him was the woman’s husband Roy and his half brother J.W. Milam. The men went fully armed to Till’s great uncle’s house and kidnapped him. The two men brutally beat down Emmett and started to mutilate his body. Then they delivered a fatal gunshot into Till’s body and threw the mutilated body into the Tallahatchie River. These were extreme forces of violence used against him since he was an African American over a…

her row to stand for a white passenger. Parks refused to stand. Thus, she was arrested. Due to Jim Crow Laws, in the Southern part of America, it was normal for blacks to sit in the back while whites sat in front on busses. If the bus filled, the front-most row of blacks would have to stand to allow the next white passenger to sit. The Montgomery Bus Boycott lasted from December 5, 1955, to December 20, 1956. African Americans refused to ride city buses in Montgomery, Alabama, in attempt to…

clergymen. As spoken by Dr. King, “Nonviolent direct action seeks to create such a crisis and seeks to dramatize the issue that it can no longer be ignored” (King). With that being said, white segregationists were very effective when it all boiled down to equality in North Carolina as they demonstrated equal alliances, just and unjust lawfulness, and ultimately, freedom. First and foremost, equality is the action of possessing the same rights, privileges, and immunities, and being liable to the…

Technology serves a very strong purpose in the world. I say cellular devices have more of an affect with this generation. I can’t walk down the street without seeing someone’s face planted into a screen of any kind. I feel separated from the world even though it’s right at my fingertips. Crazy how something so small can hold so much “knowledge”. Wrap your mind around this, one person sends or receives, on average, 110 text message a day. The average person sends 120 emails in one day. Ridiculous…

and worship I don't find the same amount of joy in it as I do when sitting and reading a good book so a book about the excitement of walking with the Lord would catch my eye on any bookshelf. My eagerness for the word and God presence rises when I sit and express my adoration for…

the basement if you would like to head down," you hesitate for a moment, glancing over at the basement door. "You are also welcome to join me in the living room for a while if you would like to decompress from whatever has you so upset." she offers, heading that way, leaving the choice in your hands. Debating for a moment you turn and enter the living room, following after Noah's mother. Without a word, you move to the couch and sit next to her. You stare down at your lap and make no move to…

During gym, I was working really hard with the youngest student in the class. I was working with him to run, stretch, and do all gym related activities. I really had to push him to get him to participate in everything, as he wanted to keep sitting down. I could tell that he was really getting frustrated with me but I did not give up, as I knew that he needed to stay active. We then started a balloon game activity. The purpose of the activity was to work on hitting the balloon back to your…

how much demand you have for your production process and also the demands of the final customer. Its not to have anything more than that, or anything less. When your products are prepared and ready to go just in time, they don 't get a chance to just sit in your warehouse for no reason and take up space. Its also a benefit because that means that there is no cost to your company for holding onto…
