My Passion is my word. Words are used everyday, I am even using words now. You know a lot about word don’t you? What they mean? When to say them? What you did not know was, once you give someone your word you are bonded to it and going back on you word would break that bond, I never go back on my word, I never did, and I never will. the only reason is, I never want to become the most atrocious monster known as a.... liar, and becoming that monster is my biggest fear. You could say it's what drives my passion. But also the bond does not just apply to your word, it also applies to people, and when you break your word you also break the bond of trust you have with the person too. Honesty is the most important policy.
Words are very powerful. A few words can change the life as we know it, and it does. Wars, violence, and hate all start with the same thing: words, but they can be stopped with them too. “You can change your world by changing your words... Remember, death and life are in the power of the tongue-Joel Osteen” This one of the reason people say think twice before saying it out loud. Words just don't come with power, they come with fear if used wrong, if used as threats. “Words should be used as tools of communication and not as a substitute for action - Mae West.” So you should choose your words wisely because our words will have an effect, that could mean a lot, good and bad. Like making a friend happy when their down, or causing problems for others.
“Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill - Buddha.” The words we say has effect on people small or large and there is nothing we can change about that, but we can change the outcome by cha...

...studying then you have to do them or like I said earlier breaking your word breaks the bond of trust. But you also have to be responsible with your words to because you should not say I will jump off a cliff for obvious reasons. You will always be responsible for what you say and misusing words, well then you would have to face the consequences. Most people don’t want to face them because of fear, which is ironic because that same fear that pushes those people away from consequences, pushes me to my passion.
In the end you can really do almost anything with your words, along with your actions, who knows maybe you can take over the world with words. And my passion really can affect the world, because words have the power of influence people, the effect might be small or large but it has an effect so we must be careful with our word. words are the core of our world.
The characters throughout the novel get impacted tremendously by negative comments. Most of the main characters in the book get torn down one way or another by a hurtful comment. However, words aren’t always used negatively. They have the power to teach new things which can increase one’s intellect. Liesel, throughout the book, was impacted the most by words because she started out knowing nothing and eventually she became very smart. The last positive thing words can do is make a person's dreams become reality. Max’s stories were beneficial to both him and his friend Liesel. They were an inspiration to them and allowed them to follow their aspirations. Words, and how we speak to one another can be very impactful. The Book Thief provides numerous examples as to how important it is to have a positive command of language, and we see how rhetoric has shaped the lives of many key characters throughout this
He also makes reference to the long history of religious intolerance and persecution within the Christian tradition, brought about by greed, mistrust, and ignorance. He emphasizes the need for continuous practice, prayer, meditation, mindfulness, and personal growth within individual religious traditions and cultures. We must make the spirit of the Buddha and the spirit of Christ part of our everyday lives. He explores the “Five Wonderful Percepts of Buddhism”: reverence for life, generosity, responsible sexual behavior, speaking and listening deeply, and ingesting only wholesome substances; comparing them to the teachings of Christ. These precepts are without a doubt, very similar to the principles thought by Christ and his apostles. Each precept or teaching works with the next, interconnecting and building upon each other toward the same goal to end suffering, bring about personal and worldly understanding, world peace, and spiritual
For my passion project I made cookies, but not just any cookies, I made cotton candy cookie. There were many ups and a downs while making these cookies, but they all payed off in the end. I learned many things during this passion project. For example I learned why I wanted to make these cookies, I made three of my own recipes and learned some really cool facts!
After reading “People First Language” by Kathie Snow, the first thing that came to my mind was the saying, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” I have never agreed with this saying because words can inflict pain just like sticks and stones. Words really do matter.
Words have the power to affect people in many ways from empowerment or to taking upon action. Words are able to make huge changes in the lives of many and can make good or bad changes. In history, people used words in both good and bad function from making a promise to a nation or even manipulating multitudes of people within a nation. Words definitely have the ability to take situations a far distance but despite the fact that evil can manipulate the majority of people, individuals too can realize the true actions and evil buried inside the perpetrator. People can be both ugly and beautiful at sometimes with weapons along their sides. A novel called The Book Thief illustrates the power of words in a multitude of ways, showing the potential
Words hold great power and when used correctly can influence what people believe and how they act.
A wise man once said “Man is only great when he acts from passion.” When you hear the word passion, the first thing that might come to your mind is something related to love, and you’re not entirely wrong. According to Merriam- Webster’s dictionary, passion is defined as a strong feeling of enthusiasm or excitement for something or about doing something or a strong feeling (such as anger) that causes you to act in a dangerous way. All in all, it is a strong feeling, be it happiness, sadness, anger or liberality. You can be passionate about many things such as love, sports, food, or intimacy. However, it can also mean having a strong yearning for something.
However inconsistent or consistent every individual’s worldview is, we all have the zeal for one strongly held desire or another that keeps driving us in the midst of daily challenges, and keeps pushing us to do better in achieving this singular desire. One thing I am strongly passionate about is helping people in every way I can so that in the end God can be glorified.
I’ve always had a passion for helping others and I love the idea of being considered a dependable person. I enjoy when others come to me to talk about the hardship they are experiencing and being able to provide them with feedback or helpful advice. To do this I learned that you need to have the characteristics of a “people person”. You must be patient, which from my job experience of working in retail and the fast food industry, I would consider myself to be a highly patient person. I also posses the the skill of being outgoing and friendly. I allow myself to be comfortable when speaking with different types of people and I let myself open up so I can personally relate to them. By doing this I believe that others will return the comfort that I created and will want

For example, when you come in your math class and tell your teacher I am going to pass the test from today with a one-hundred. Your teacher probably won’t care that you said that, because the words are meaningless if you don’t commit to what you said you would do. But if you had not said anything to your teacher and just done it, the outcome probably would have been better. Because you’re stupendous grade would have been more of
Words are powerful tools of communication and interpersonal skills. Having the ability to communicate effectively is the most important of all life skills. This life skill is most important because it is very essential for building relationships, whether it personal or impersonal; be it verbal or non verbal. It’s a way in which to express ones feelings, thoughts, and
I have acted on my passions several times throughout my youth. Sometimes it paid off to act on my passions and other times it did not. Every year, month, day, hour, and second I must make a decision whether or not I wish to act on the passions burning inside of my body. My passion is a part of my being as much as it is a part of your being and Frederick Nietzsche in his argument “Morality as Anti-nature” displays this concept beautifully. He believes that our passions make up who we are and they are a sign of how deeply we feel our emotions. He believes that “we are never satisfied merely to state the fact that we feel this way” (723). As humans we feel that we must express the degree’s to which we feel our emotions/passions through our words, expressions, and movements.
Passion for Family, Community, Business, Technology and Intellectual growth are what motivate me on the daily basis. These are vital parts that have contributed to framing me into the person I’ve become. They have also shaped my short-term and long-term goals in life. It’s critical for one to have a vision for their life and what they anticipate to accomplish. Without a vision or desire there is no hope for one to continue and to purse anything. My experiences with in my passions have helped me aligned my vision for my life. They have given me the valuable knowledge that have set me up for success to get to this point in life.
Most of us in today’s society do not realize how powerful words can be and how huge of an impact they can have on our lives. I remember the day when my son said his first words,
