Everybody has a different perspective on life and what they are thankful for. I think this means that the everyone in the world is not the same and they are unique. Everyone is special on their on ways and that is how God made them to be and this is a good thing about everyone. I am also very fortunate to have such an amazing life that couldn’t top anything in the world because I am grateful for everything that I have in my life. I am thankful for many things, but I have the top three things I am thankful for. The top three thing I am thankful for are my family, friends, and school.
My family is the biggest thing that I am thankful for. The reason I am thankful for my family is because they love and care for me. I wouldn't know what I would do if my family didn't love and care for me. The reason my family loves and cares for me is because I am there baby and they don't want anything to happen to me. They hug me and kiss me everyday before bed and before school. They try to spend

I am thankful for school because I can get an education that some kids in other parts of the world can't. I am very thankful and fortunate to get an education because I can become smarter and without education, I wouldn't be able to get through life because you use the education that you have learned from all of your teachers. You use it in the real world when you get older like your parents do. I am thankful for all of the teacher that have given me the education because without the teacher that have given me the education that I know, I wouldn't get through life. The teachers have a big part in my education because they taught me everything that I need to know for the real world. I love all of my teacher that I have or did have. I am very thankful for what my teachers have taught me so far so I wouldn't be a blank mind when I get out to face the future. All in all, my teachers have made me who I am today and what knowledge I know for the
The Punic Wars left an impact on Western Civilization because it was a turning point for Rome. Rome used to be a tiny city-state that had no potential to become an imperial power, by the time the Punic Wars are won, Romans would have dominance over the Mediterranean power. Rome’s survival was challenged over and over again, but Rome thrived on their victories. But one by one, city-states joined Rome. This was allowing them to gain more power. Carthage was fearful of Rome and it escalated into a conflict, which led to the Punic Wars. (Frankforter & Spellman, 141) The Punic Wars are made up of three different wars. The Carthaginians lost all three wars. The cost of the first war was that the Carthaginians lost Sicily and they had to pay reparations. The cost of the
When one thinks back to all the school years between kindergarten and high school, they will not remember the name of every teacher they have ever had without hard thought. There are always going to be the teachers that stood out from all the rest for one reason; they connected with their students. When asked about school, students will not reply with an undoubted love for all the time spent going through it. It is simply something we must all go through to get on with our lives and be an active member of society. I get the strangest looks from my peers when I say I like school. Now obviously, I have not loved every second spent behind a desk or all the time required to be spent with every teacher, but overall I do enjoy school because of the
My parents, love to do things as a family, they always wanted to do things, with me and my sister, we are a very close family and its so great because I know that my sister will always be there like she was been for the past 16 years, I know she's always just a phone call away.
Many people would say that education is not important to who you are and that it does not shape you. Although a countless number of people believe otherwise, the determining factor is that personal knowledge is going to shape who a person becomes. A boy in the Philippines sends his American sponsors his report card every year so that they know their money is being used to create his identity, so they know, they are helping that little boy. To be a part of something so profound as creating an identity, is why teachers are so important and why learning is so important. To help a child become more than what society would ever expect of them on their own is a gift. So thank the teachers because without them “we couldn’t be” (Angelou). Be grateful that there is a free education, a free identity, for everyone, it just has to be found.
Thanksgiving for my family probably looks a lot like the thanksgiving for most families in the United States. My family always does their best to remember to give thanks for everything that we had that past year and everything that we have in general. From each other, to the house we are in to the food and the cars we drive. It is very valued in my family to give thanks before we indulge in the delicious meal that was prepared by so many different
My family is the most important people in my life. I can always count on my family to be there in my time of need, and someone that is always there to laugh with me and make great memories with. Even though I am ten hours away from home, I know I can still call my mom and dad anytime, day or night, just to simply say “hey what’re you doing?”, or to talk about things going on at Union. I encourage you as you move forward in life to always make the most of the little things in life. You never know when the unexpected might occur, so never take your family for
Words cannot express the gratitude I have in my heart for my past, present, and future teachers. This includes those teachers that I have met in and out of the classroom. Teachers are the pillars of our society. They prepare the future generations to assimilate or to challenge our world. In my opinion, teachers have the most important role in society, next to the role of being a parent. They are so influential. Essentially, they control what a student is learning. They control whether a student learns the history of the violent war heroes or the history of the heroic peacemakers. Teachers have the ability to provide inspiration to drift into the background of society, or to stand up and challenge society. That is why I would like to be a teacher. I want to change the world by empowering children to change the world.
Those are just a few reasons why my family is my greatest accomplishment. I have finally realized something with age. The more I care about someone the more I manage to live myself. When someone’s life truly depends on whether or not you hit the snooze button on the alarm clock once or twice you realize your accomplishment may not be what you ever wanted for yourself. Yet somehow you feel accomplished simply because that person is here tomorrow to bring a smile to your face and a tear to your eye. Always remember that tears are not a bad thing. As my philosophical child Lena would put it “Tears are just your feeling trying to say hello.”
...teachers, and other students have helped me realize that my destiny is to become a teacher. My whole life I have been surrounded by teachers and the teaching lifestyle. Knowing that it is possible that someone may look up to me someday the way I looked up to my teachers helps me know that teaching is what I really want to do. I am very thankful for the great teachers I had over the years who only fueled my desire to stay focused on my dream. Teachers may not get the best salary and may not be considered one of the most challenging professions around, but I do not know of a more perfect and rewarding profession for me. I consider myself lucky that I get the chance to be a part of such a special group of people, and feel fortunate that I get to spend my life doing something I love. I want to be looked at with respect and be considered special. I want to be a teacher.
When I look back to my young developing stages in life, I always ask myself where would I be today if it wasn’t for my teachers? Teachers are the ones who build our future generations. Preparing children and teens for higher education. Also playing a huge part in shaping children’s lives, enlightening them, and educating them about society and the world around them; the types of things that a parent doesn’t have time for, or just lacks the knowledge of. I think teachers are what help make this world go round.
When the word “family” is discussed, most people think of mothers, fathers, and other siblings. Some people think of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and even cousins and more on the pedigree tree. Without family in people's lives, they would not be the same people that they grew up to be today and in the future. When people hear the word family they think about, the ones who will help them in any way they can whether it’s money, support, advice, or anything to help them succeed in life. Family will forever be the backbone of support.
Another reason why I am thankful on Thanksgiving is my friends. They are nice and always fun, we are always happy, and we always play together at recess or at our houses.
In the end, my family as a whole is the reason that I am the person that I am today. It’s the way that different personalities all come together as one, the way my family handles hard situations, and the closeness I have with them that has really impact me and my life. I know that I would not be as cheerful, hardworking, or positive without seeing all these qualities around me for a majority of my life. It’s astonishing how just 6 people can change you for the better. I know I would be in a very different place in my life if it wasn’t for my family. Family is different for everyone, and mine is truly the best people for me.
My family is a love I have. My immediate family consists of six people: my dad, mom, and three sisters and me. However, I love these people on a different scale than I love books. Whether it is a hand to guide, a tissue to wipe away tears, or simply a smile to make my day better I can count on people to love me and so, henceforth, I love them in return. I love my parents for many reasons. They are always there for me when I need help or am need of anything.
I don’t know where I’d be without my family. We’ve been through thick, and thin. I’m very glad that I have them for moral support, and can depend on them for advice. They’ve taught me almost everything I know about life, whether it’d be household chores, manners, morals, cooking, etc. I’m pleased to have a very caring family that would do anything for me. I feel safe and secure with them. They provide me with the basic necessities such as food, water, and a roof over my head. I would consider all of the things they provide me with as luxuries, because not everyone has a comfortable place to reside in, or food to eat. If I didn’t have these basic necessities, then it would be another thing I would have to stress about in life. I like to joke around with them a lot, and it brings a smile to my face when I see their reaction. Having a loving, and supportive family is what makes me
