The Great Day

the ancient festival of Samhain. They believed this was the time of the year where ghosts would come from the dead and they would appease them with treats. That’s how we got the candy into the halloween. This holiday was first only celebrated in Great britain, while, ireland, and part of…

Why I Chose Commercial Over In Home Childcare You spend your days and nights feeding, rocking, changing, and snuggling your new baby, doing your best to sleep when they sleep. It’s a rough couple of weeks with a newborn, but you love every minute of it and you know all too soon you’ll have to return to work and leave that delicate, precious little person with a caregiver. There are various options out there: family, friends, in home daycares, and commercial daycare centers. Which option do you…

would make a difference. Come Election Day, I flipped on CNN and vehemently watched the poll statistics pour in, only to find myself utterly shocked as Trump’s votes skyrocketed and Clinton’s stagnated. Finally calling it quits at 1:45a.m., I, like many Americans, woke up the next day with a heavy heart. Having grown up in south Florida and going to college in Boston, I have always been surrounded by progressive people, most of whom are anti-Trump. So, the day after the election when my…

The other one is El día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), this takes place in México. According to Madrid Traveler, “The Spanish word for bullfighting is corrida de Toros that can be literally translated as “running of bulls”. Bullfighting is very poplar tradition in Peru. People all around Peru…

experience allowed me to utilize multiple talents that I had. The experiences I have opened my time to be involved in are not the types of activities I’m normally not interested in. In order to get my service learning volunteer hours I had to go for three days at two different locations. The first services I provided was for the New York care program. The activity involved the parks and recreation center. The Park was located at Seward park, garden the service was for two hours. The activities…

As the nation observes Memorial Day this weekend, we should take a few minutes to reflect on the great number of American military cemeteries that span the far reaches of the planet, where boundless ranks of white stones stand silently at attention with few visitors to ever pay their respects. There were never any veterans’ reunions for them – not one. Well, at least not on this side of eternity’s threadlike veil. In what seems like a blink of the eyes, it was last summer that I was…

to say, while membership is important, we should also be reminding new believers often of the sacrificing love shown in the selfless act of Christ along with building them up to move from milk to meat. Nevertheless, regardless of having a good day or bad day, Christ has made it clear to us all that we all need his saving grace The Prodigal God The parable of the prodigal son is one of my favorites possibly because of how often it has been preached and how much I "thought" I knew all about its…

I went to Precious Memories Child Care for my site visit. Precious Memories’ mission is to provide day care for children who have been rejected from other care facilities or schools for either financial or behavioral reasons. Most of the children at precious memories are from low-income households. This background predisposes these children to significant current and future health problems. In a 2000 study of low-income children who were being placed into foster care: 44% of children had an…

example, if someone is having a bad day, the witty friend comes along and make that sad person all happy and energized just be telling them a couple of funny or interesting information such as a joke, statistic or even a fun fact. They even make the day go by faster. They do that because they keep making the day fun and interesting by telling jokes and many other interesting things that make a person laugh. They also make the day go by faster by talking all day long and don’t stop. For example,…

I don’t want them to go. Every day I see them get off the “special needs” bus and get laughed at and see the fingers pointed straight at them, it’s ridiculous. You would have thought that tenth graders would have learned by now that bullying and harassment is childish, but apparently not. It’s amazing how much potential the kids on my bus have, especially Johnny. John is the type of guy who is independent and strong inside and out. I love him, he is a great kid. As he rolls down the…
