around, calling for children, friends, and parents. David’s eyes landed on a small boy sitting in the center of the former road. His formerly white socks lay on the ground in front of him, turning darker and darker as the smoke rose from them. Small tears dripped down his cheeks and onto the ground. David walked over to the teary-eyed young boy. He recognized him from the orphanage. This was Wyatt. He had been at the orphanage for five years, his whole life. The French boy’s parents left…
government uprooting whole tribes from their "sacred and ancestral lands and forcing them to walk hundreds of miles to reach far western territories." (pg.431) This long and painful journey was known as the Trail of Tears and it created even more hatred and tension between the U.S. and the Native Americans. Realizing that a peaceful settlement was impossible, the Native Americans began to fight back. However, their attacks did not come out on top and they were all eventually…
bus after calling my mom. The phone call made hearing the news harder. “Paige, it 's Pam. She just passed away. I 'm so sorry, honey. I love you,” my mom said, choking back tears. My mom had already texted my best friend Taylor, and told her I would really need somebody right now. I made the long walk to the back of the bus, tears streaming down my face, but still managing to hold myself together. I didn 't make eye contact with Taylor, who sat across from me, because I was trying not to sob and…

I am Jessica Catherine Stephens. I am a small leaf apart of a large family tree. I am the daughter of a strong-willed southern belle and a hard-working northern gentleman. I am a mixture of beliefs, styles, and personalities I’ve encountered throughout my life. I am a younger sister to a slowly calming daredevil. I am a proud mother of two, a Cairn terrier mutt named Charlie and an aging sassy cat named Missy. I am a retired girl scout and participant of many sports-none of which I was good at.…
My mom came to me and said she didn’t make it. I couldn’t take it, I've never cried as much as I did that day. It was a long day of tears and sorrows exchanged between the family. I went home and couldn’t focus on anything other than what my I had just saw. The next two weeks were nothing but sadness for myself. I lost a piece of me when I lost her. I was very to myself and my family…
It was getting harder and harder to deny the fact that she felt an attraction to this guy. She refused to say she was in love because we all knew that wasn’t possible. It was but a couple months. This was how long she’d known him and of those three months, he had a crush on her friend all of them. She never wanted to invest herself in a guy that she knew would never like her back but, it was hard when all he kept doing was drawling her in. Every sweet word and vowel that came out of his mouth…
My heart dropped to the ground and my eyes fluttered with tears. I was in denial; no, I told myself, my mother was not going anywhere.

She was so amazed at me but as I was looking at her; I was trying to fight the tears from falling. I didn’t want to let her see me sad because she was already suffering. She…
My first year of college, I experienced the greatest tragedy of my life. Some may say she was just a dog, but to me, she was my best friend. My Chihuahua, Tiny. I received this dog as a gift on my second birthday. At which point, she would fit in my father’s work pocket and pester me throughout her “puppy stage.” Over the years, Tiny grew into a best friend, more so than a pet. However, much of this changed when we found out she had a fatty benign tumor. 1.) At the age of 13 in 2013,…
amazing Caesar fell. Kind, what a fall it was, my other people who live in the same nation! By then you and I and every one of us tumbled down, while terrible wrongdoing won. Goodness, now you cry, and I sense that you feel pity. These are aware/careful tears. Anyway, on the off chance that it (over-(over-overloading and including with a lot of something) loads and joins together with an (long/big/moderately big) measure of something) you to (get some information about/attempt to discover…
