Coming Home Years ago, a long time before somebody wrote the song, I read a story about a boy who had caused his parents a lot of heartache. He had done just about everything possible to bring grief to the hearts of his mother and his father. Finally, he left home and moved from one place to another until he was a great distance from home. For several years he lived a rebellious and low life. Then, one day he came to himself, and began thinking about home and those thoughts were pleasant
should accept the skin ... ... middle of paper ... ... We all have a purpose in life, and whether it’s good or not, we must go through what we go through, and once we finish we’ll notice that it’ll pay off. I go through many things in life every single day, but that doesn’t stop me. I must keep pushing forward without looking back. I have dreams, and so do you. Chase them. Go for them. No one should stop you from doing what YOU LOVE. It’s your life, “if you don’t grind, you don’t shine”; meaning
Ethics is basically a set of moral values and principles of one’s own or an organization. It is diagnosticating between right and wrong matter. Ethics is derived from a Greek word ‘ethos’ which means character or habits. ”Ethics is not definable, it is not implementable, because it is not conscious, it involves not only our thinking, but also our feeling.(Setzar 1709-1784)”.However, ethical values could be different among different individuals or personalities as everyone has their own precedence
Standing on tip toes on an old stump was a troll. Not a mean, fierce, drooling kind of troll ... more of a gentler and wiser kind. He was trying to peek in the kitchen window of the house next to the woods where he lived. The house was really not all that special. It was a two story colonial with country blue paint that was peeling slightly. It was a warm morning in late July. Mrs. Sagal was cooking breakfast as her daughter, Lucinda sat at the kitchen table looking at a magazine. “What do you want
You said it wasn’t working because I wasn’t happy, but you already knew that. I have depression and it literally blocks my happiness. Since you already knew that, why did you wait so long to break it off? And why didn’t you come up with a different reason? One that hurts less… Did you really think that you could cure me, fix me up, in one month’s time? That’s not how mental illness, nor life itself, works. You said I didn’t have enough time for you, but you didn’t have time for me either. Our schedules

Can you tell her that I miss her alot and her delicious apple pie. I have some good news for you guys, I am coming back home really soon and I can’t wait to see you guys again. Anyway
(Revan's AN): Hello, I'm glad this got a lot of positivity, I wasn't exactly nervous about this story, but I did worry that no one wanted to see something like this. Anyways, some of you commented on pairing, and it's not that I don't have a girl in mind, it's more of me not being able to make that choice. There are tons of girls I like and want to try, but I just can't make that choice. It's a somewhat tedious task, and probably will take me some time because I'm still deciding on what kind of pairing
Sacrifice is inevitable in every aspect of life; therefore, in order to become successful, one must be willing to give up time, money, and in some cases relationships in order to become a successful person. As humans, success is an expectation many can reach while others struggle to give up the right things to make it. Athletes are known for sacrificing so much to become good at what they do. Many athletes wish to be successful and go on to a bigger and better careers. To do this, one must be

Overcoming Fear of Heights: a Reflection on the Will to Power Life wants to build itself up into the heights with pillars and steps; it wants to look into vast distances and out toward stirring beauties: therefore it requires height. And because it requires height, it requires steps and contradiction among the steps and the climbers. Life wants to climb and to overcome itself climbing (The Portable Nietzsche 213). Traditionally we have associated climbing heights with reaching God. An example of
can into what you do. The more you push to improve, the closer you come to your goals, which can be long-term like graduating, or as short as going to sleep at a reasonable time. Everything anyone strives for comes down to self-improvement. Every single thing you do can either advance you in life or set you back. If you are not searching for ways to improve, then you will end up behind the people that are looking to be better. If you are not putting full effort into your activities and in your life
Kael ran. He pumped his legs willing them to go faster. Chin tucked against his chest, a handkerchief tied around his mouth and nose he sprinted, his feet pounding across the dry, desiccated land, cutting his way through the howling wind. Even with all his tireless training he was feeling the strain of the toxic fumes. Fire raged through his lungs spreading burning heat through his limbs and muscles, threatening to consume his entire body. They knew the time was coming. Their hours had been numbered
As I sit here in my quiet cubicle, watching our pictures flash by on my screen and staring at our wedding photos, I reflect on our relationship and my actions. I know, by any measure, that I am not perfect. I know that at times I do or say things that are hurtful and belay your trust in me. I know that for most of our relationship, I have been the negative one. The one to pick out faults and errors, to cause fights over trivial things, create isolationism and have the skewed mental image of the one
Lou knows that I don't sleep soundly because he doesn't need a music box to doze off. He finds comfort in banter. I like to bury myself in poetry and riddles. Words that are spoken only to fill the void in the light of sun become grandiose by nighttime. The things we do that drain our energy during the day are glorified by the moon. He was sitting to my right at the bus stop. I figured I probably needed to join a support group for the way I was continuously let down by my tendency to fall in love
The large crowd attending the Edmonton Metcalfe County Chamber of Commerce Christmas Banquet enjoyed a delightful evening.

“I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.”-Larry Bird. I believe no other quote better reflects my attitude of life. Giving my 100 percent in everything I do appears to be the primary means for success given the scope of challenges in my life. I grew up in Chinatown, an immigrant community in which resources are quite limited. Just as the majority of the residents in Chinatown are immigrants, so too is my mother. When my mother first
How often do you make excuses to yourself that you can’t do something? Some people say maybe twice a day, but if Kyle Maynard from the book: No Excuses can achieve his goals, then anyone can if they believe and put in as much heart as he did. The book is about a young man who grew up with no limbs. He might have the disability, but he still will achieve anything that is placed in front of him. People need to push their self to receive what they want and not just expect it to happen so easily. When
