Most people would sit at home and complain and cry about it. Yet, Randy took a different approach to the problem, and established a reputation that affected many people’s lives. His reputation grew because his character didn’t stop; he kept doing what he was doing in his everyday life. Randy lectured in his class still, he still prayed every day, he played with his kids more, and he did everything else he normally does. He enjoyed every second of life he was given and appreciated it like it was his last day, hour, minute and second.
She bit down on her bottom lip as her tears continued to cascade down her cheeks. She looked at the pale man lying on the hospital bed before her, grasping his hand as if at any moment he might slip away from her. It was her first week back at school when PC Dawson, a work colleague of her dads, collected her from her lesson. It was that day her whole world came crashing down. The day she found out her father had been shot and placed in a coma, one she was told he may never awake.
Many people would never open up and reveal the inner most parts of them by in which them being afraid by what may be uncovered. I am willing to share the stories of my family, the likes, the dislikes, the confusions, the toils and our commitment to each other. You will discover that through my childhood I’ve experienced many joys as well as abuse; mentally, physically, and emotionally. But through perseverance, I’ve learned that I can reach beyond the clouds to become more than what I’ve even expected of myself or what was portrayed of others. I’ve learned to depend on God who is the most important person in my life.
We both believed the people that suppose to love us the most hurt us the most. Every time I turned to read a page, in each little word it was giving me closure to my past. The tears would stroll down my face like a stormy day. I hated that I was reminiscing on the past through each chapter I read. But, it gave me a clear understanding of how I was acting and what was holding me back from letting go of the pain.
Phil had a heart attack because he was so stressed out from work, and he didn’t have a life outside of work so he was always stressed out. Everyone should have a hobby to enjoy, something that is not stressful and that gives them a break from everything else in life. Phil worked so much that his son didn’t know what he was like and his wife had been missing him for years. Family life is very important for a married man and Phil didn’t have that in his life. Now he is dead and his wife left widowed and his children
My father in particular was the most positive influence on my life, showing his undying affection for my family through his stern demeanor. It’s my father’s hard nosed yet loving approach and ability to risk anything for his family, that makes him my hero to this day. I think most people can remember the first time one of their parents sat them down on their
Three of them reached out only to be denied the help they so desperately needed by the only person they trusted, which was me. Person B’s death was not the first of the three who reached out but his certainly has been the hardest to deal with thus far. In this field more loss of life is certain to happen. After the passing of the 14 clients, weighing the importance of keeping a job to pay bills, having food to eat, and a place to live versus the loss of life is re-evaluated daily. If time could be rewound, and the situations could be re-done, those clients who reached out would never have been denied the help they were
That game was the biggest failure I have ever been a part of. We got beat by a team we were not even close to our same talent. My coach is one of the people I look up to the most. After the game, he gave me a speech about how I have to work as hard as I can so this does not happen again. What he told me really hit me because I started working as hard as I could so we did not have that feeling the next
Because of the injury I will never run, surf, stand for longer than 10 minutes, or hike again. These use to be my favorite things to do but the outcome far outweighs what would of happened if the clerk would of just filed my shot records correctly. Because of this injury it has saved my life a couple of times that I know of. The day I had my hip replacement surgery is the day that my unit left for Iraq. Of course I was upset to not be able to go and be with my brothers and sisters but the injury held me back and that’s life not much I could do about it.
I strived to succeed, so when I didn’t do my best I would get very upset with myself and try harder until I was the best. I hate the feeling of failure especially when I knew that I had tried my very hardest. My parents always told me try your hardest or don’t try at all, so anytime I lost at something I felt like I was letting them down. Like I said before the best feeling in the world is when your parents show pride in you, well how awesome that feels is coinciding with how horrible it feels when they are upset with me. Through the years I have learned what I am good at and what I don’t excel in.
