I am going to talk about 3 of my biggest fears and how they impact my life. To start off, one of my biggest fears ever is losing my loved ones. My friends, family and dog all fit into this category. The reason why I am afraid to lose them is because they are the people who made me the person I am today and I don’t know what I’d do without them. My family raised me to be a strong and good person and I love them so much, especially my mom.
More often than not, we do not know what causes our pain. It could have been caused by an enemy, or a friend, or a relative, or a special someone, or even by oneself. It could be so painful that one forgets where it came from, and remembers only that it hurt. We are caught off guard by it, unaware of its gravity, and, in such excruciating cases, forced to drop everything in order to find a remedy for the pain. You do anything to get out of the hole you're in - and by doing so, you blur the line between what's right and what's wrong.
I don’t think you understand how much you mean to me, and if I ever lost you I think I would die. I’m glad you are willing to wait for me until I’m ready and have the respect to even want to wait. I respect you for that. I’m also happy that you want to do something with your life but I want you to know, if you ever leave for like the military to serve I want you to come back home to me. In the time your away I will write every day, I will always think about you and I will miss you so much that it will make me sick to my stomach, and then I won’t even be able to sleep at night.
Eulogy to my great grandmother To families, friends, cousins, Aunty and Uncle, thank you all for inviting me here. Its an honour for me to be here. I sometimes think about the past and how the past has become present. Alice’s words meant a lot to me, what she says is true, I still remember this quote she kept on repeating and told me what it really means: “Life sometimes can hit you as hardest as it could and you could be at the bottom of the rock”. Sometimes I don’t understand why life is so hard, so hard that you cannot define what life is and what life is about.
They know what they want and when they don’t get it, they cry, or scream, or express their emotions in another way. Divorce is a difficult and unpleasant event in life of any person, and children become its victims as well. Of course, they don’t want to lose the possibility of seeing another parent less frequently than another, and thus they express their disappointment in a way usual for them. People start to think that children shouldn’t suffer because of it, and maybe they should try to restore the relationships and so on. But, unfortunately, such tries often end with nothing good and children suffer even more.
Later on down the road, you start thinking about what you said and how you said it, and realize that you made a mistake. Sometimes in the moment it does not seem to sound mean, but later on you realize you had said some hurtful things. Yes, most of the time you can say, “Well, I was mad when I said that so I didn’t really mean it.” But most of the time, if your mad or not, you said, so that is what you were thinking. Just recently, my best friend and I got into a huge fight. There were somethings that were said that should not have been, but you don’t realize it until after it has been said.
We were very happy. My company was doing great. My relationship was doing great. My whole life was great. Until one day, Sarah calls me and says "Dave, we need to talk."
“Never Giving Up” By: Katherine Meter Professor Betty Nazarian ENGL092 My children, parents and friends are a really important part of my life. They have given me the confident and motivation to never give up on my goals. They all have been there for me in the good times and the bad. The last couple of years in my life have been rough ones. It first started when my father became ill and I had to take care of him.
Refugees would not be satisfied upon arrival. Refugees often face particular challenges in adapting because their arrival was not planned or a matter of choice, but a matter of survival. They may be deeply disturbed by their past experiences and on top of that the struggle they go through when they separate from their immediate family members whom they had to leave behind will leave them clueless. Many people felt that the arrival of the refugees would only make the economic situation worse, and that the government should concentrate on helping its own people. Others wanted to do all they could for the new arrivals.
Maybe they don’t get enough attention at their house, or maybe they want friends but they can only show their mean side because they are actually scared of getting hurt themselves. Either way, no matter what the reasoning is, bullying is not okay. There was one girl, Sally, who I had got close with but then again we only talked in certain periods. Maybe it was because I was nice to her and partnered with her when no one else would, or maybe the simple fact I didn’t want her to feel left out that I was her friend. She never hurt me, or was mean to me, she just dressed different and wasn’t as fortunate as the rest of us.
