Third World

not try your absolute best in the first place. I will not get through life and become the person I want to be, let alone do the things I want to do, without taking some risks. Third, no one is perfect not even you, so when you fall down don’t stay down - readjust, regroup, and try again. You will not be able to save the world on the first try. I am strong, determined, ambitious, humble, and loving. I put others before myself and make sure I help anyone and everyone I can. That will help me to…

It started out as just a lemonade stand. I never saw that this world was cruel and hateful. Just standing as the sideline, without knowing of what I could do. I can live or my love can leave this world. What brought me here? This world we just need money. For food, for water, for furniture, for everything. Sometimes I just wish to own it all, everything. I live in a two room apartment with my father. Living in constant fear of being homeless. While those get, we have to savage and earn our way…

Imagine yourself scaling a 500ft sheer rock wall with nothing holding you to the wall but your bare hands. It is understandable that a person may be put in this situation out of necessity and common sense dictates the only time you would perform this feat would be when necessary to preserve your life or that of a loved one. Then consider Dan Osman performing this same action just for the rush of adrenaline. Does this make him crazy? I definitely believe that a person taking such unnecessary…

stewards not as mindless slaves.” This is the foundation of what my world view is. Everything in this world, in my human life, and in civilization is a reflection of my stewardship and honor of what God has blessed me with. The very beginning of God’s word starts with the creation of the natural world. Within the first 11 chapters of Genesis we are showed not only how everything came in to existence, but also how the natural world was transformed after the flood. Genesis 1:1 says: “1In the…

People define heroism in many ways, but to me a hero is anyone who is willing to risk their life for someone or something. A person could be heroic in action, taking a stand or helping someone in need. A hero is not someone who is in the right place at the right time or shows up to just save the day. A hero is the military men and women fighting for our freedom, Jesus dying on the cross for our sins, and a counselor helping someone get their life back together. Being heroic in action is the…

society grants every child a chance to experience a myriad of cultural outlets. Children also have the opportunity to ask for help in almost any situation such as school or home problems and receive it, a luxury an abundance of countries, especially third-world countries, do not have. The general Canadian society allows a child to completely be themselves without constant fear of discrimination due to their race, sex, country of origin, etc. Even as soon as birth, a child is usually cared for by…

offers opportunity to progress. From just turning on the news and seeing the goings –on in the world seem to be one of few things that actually spark a fire inside me that most things do not. Being quite a calm and reserved person I’ve found when it comes to the distribution of wealth and the state of LEDCs as an example I come out of that and become far more…

To being with, Africa is one of the largest continents in the world. Just like any other country, Africa goes through its good and bad day when it comes to economic and financial stability. With out those factors situations can go down hill and have different countries go through issues when it comes to a countries economy or being in debt. In the Sub-Saharan region of Africa there was over millions of individuals that joined a Labor force for job opportunities. Sub-Saharan economies export raw…

of this course, I thought sustainability was about balancing the priorities of today, and the needs of tomorrow. While I would still include that in my definition, it has been expanded and developed. For me, sustainability is now a way of being the world that balances the well being of humans and the planet. The equilibrium between humans, and the environment is a delicate one. While the earth is our home, we’ve never known what we’ve been doing because we’ve never known what we’ve been…

In every country throughout the world is a unique culture, making that country different from the rest. Whether it be food and drinks or clothing and language, culture is the essence of every country. In Tunisia, the culture is rich with influence from the French, Romans, and Arabs. The Mediterranean Sea in the north and the Sahara desert in the south both influence the production of food and drink. The overwhelming percentage of Muslims in the country also affects the culture. The…
