Sports also provide students with opportunities for their future, careers and other skills such as problem solving, getting along with others and working as a team member. All of these are valuable skills for the world of work. A well rounded education that focuses on the child's mind, emotional well being and social well being is the best kind of education.…

In the essay ‘Take Me out of Their Ball Game’ by Maria Guhde Keri, the author illustrates a prevalent situation in any child's life, “Did you ever walk into a room where kids are playing, say, a board game? They're animated, excited, totally focused on what they're doing. When you appear, they stiffen, grow quiet, and appear confused. An adult is watching, and suddenly the game and rules are changed-maybe even ruined.” In this scenario the presence of an authority figure sours the mood. This…

angry, depressed, and furious. My wife divorced me because I wasn't there for her, I had a job I had to focus on but on that day, the day she told me that it wasn't working out my mind fell into a daze. I hadn't thought about it, but I just pushed her into the table where it hit her head and she started bleeding. I ran out the house not knowing what I did, thinking what I should do should I help her, or should I leave because she left me. I ran into a small coffee shop just a few blocks away. I…

Page 153 in Fun Home, Alison illustrates the situation that almost threw him out of the closet. Being caught with a young man and beer in his car. Now, that situation is not something you’d want to have over you. Bad enough that men of the gay community in the 1960’s were portrayed as older men who prey on young boys or pedophiles…

atmosphere is very similar to high school. As a result, the transition has been very smooth so far. How have I been able to make these adjustments you say? Well let’s find out!

In my life, there has been many obstacles or complications that I have faced and overcome over the past years. Out of the many that I have faced, the biggest obstacle that I have overcome was when my mom developed breast cancer.

My brother and I were coming home from school, seeing as it was a typical school day. Some years before, my grandma had been diagnosed with the…

people’s lives? In my paper, I give out the explanation on how God and evil can coexist with one another because good can triumph over evil through perseverance. This goes on with the relationship between justice and vengeance and how the two can’t live without the other. Though it may be hard to actually consider this, there are many forms to prove this as to be true. God has evil on Earth for the people to understand that there is always a need to make sure to give out a lesson and make others…

to tie up my happiness and poke and prod it to figure it out. I’d rather just revel in it and experience my peace since I know it can’t last for long. At least not here, not like this. I sit in the long grass as I feel my skin absorbing the sun. The grass prickles my arms and itches, but I don 't care. It 's that perfect temperature today. A gentle breeze sweeps the excess heat away and the clouds dance above like water swirling in and out of each other 's white wisps decorating the pale blue…
