Small Steps to Faith

Author's Note: This piece is my DWA. I wrote this relation to the book Heaven is for Real. When it seems like there is no faith, well there is. Throughout my piece you will see that God does care for his kids here on Earth.

You’re in the hospital, your boy laying on the bed. Doctors surrounding your little kid. You’re outside in the waiting room, trying to get a glance at him, but it’s just nearly impossible. At this point so many things are running through your head. That night you come out of the hospital and your son goes “Jesus really, really loves children.”Colton Burpo said while playing with his cars. That moment when he closed his eyes you could tell something was different about him. Having faith during a time like this may sound impractical, but we all should know that when faith is running thin you still should believe; know that God will take you through it.

Even though God doesn't sound or look like he’s there, well he will always be by your side no matter how hard the situation is. In the book Heaven is for Real, to get through a life like Colton Burpo you will need to have a lot of faith in God. In the 21st century, we haven’t quite understood the fact that you need faith to get through almost anything. With that being said, I was watching a YouTube video and it was talking about a rare cancer called osteosarcoma, that had taken a 17 year olds life. Being in a situation like this you would need to trust God, which is a hard thing to do because you don’t understand why this is happening to your child

Children are gifts of God, but when something bad happens to them; the frustration gets to the parents. Which causes stress and slowly losing that feeling of faith. Todd Burpo, Colton’s dad was extremely frustrated this happened to Colton. Todd wasn't sure how to express his feelings, he yelled and screamed at God “Why is this happening to my son?!” God has his ways of answering prayers, even though it may not be the prettiest, he is here for his kids. If God bring you to it, he will bring you out of it. Anonymous.

Having faith and still remaining to be calm is the greatest thing answered prayer God could give you, and even getting to see your child after any life threatening situation that is a bigger gift from God. God can show his love for kids in many different ways: like the way God answered Todd Burpo prayer.  God loves his children so much he sent his son to die on the cross. I don’t think anyone of your parents would be able to give you up just for you to die on the cross.

God does everything for a reason, even though it may not seem like it. With the Burpo family they didn't know why this was happening to Colton, but they realized that anything that God does happens for a reason. The older you get the more that you begin to understand that. Faith is a hard part of your life but you know what, we all have to go through it. God is there for everyone no matter how much you sin or bad is in your life. He also loves each and everyone of you no matter what; he loves his children here on earth. 

Even if it Breaks Your Heart

Author's Note: This is my Text Analysis piece. I did it on a county song because that genre of music has really gotten me through a lot. I hope this song impacts you as much as it did to me.

Way back on the radio dial,

The fire got lit inside a bright-eyed child.

Every note just wrapped around his soul,

From steel guitars to Memphis, all the way to rock and roll.

Ohhh, I can hear 'em playin'.

I can hear the ringin' of a beat up ol' guitar.

Ohhh, I can hear 'em singin',

"Keep on dreamin', even if it breaks your heart."

Downtown is where I used to wander.

Old enough to get there but too young to get inside.

So I would stand out on the sidewalk,

Listen to the music playin' every Friday night.

Ohhh, I can hear 'em playin'.

I can hear the ringin' of a beat up ol' guitar.m

Ohhh, I can hear 'em singin',

"Keep on dreamin', even if it breaks your heart."

Some dreams stay with you forever,

Drag you around but bring you back to where you were.

Some dreams keep on gettin' better,

Gotta keep believin' if you wanna know for sure.

Ohhh, I can hear 'em playin'.

I can hear the ringin' of a beat up ol' guitar.

Ohhh, I can hear 'em singin',

"Keep on dreamin', even if it breaks your heart."

[x2]

Keep on dreamin', even if it breaks your heart.

Keep on dreamin'

Don't let it break your heart.

For the longest time this song has always kept me going even through the more difficult times. Whenever I feel down this is the song to turn too. The first time I saw Eli Young Band, they performed this song and immediately fell in love with this song and the band. When things get rough you can always rely on this song to make you feel better. It has personally helped me with friends, family and my dreams.

Fix it Before it Happens

Author's Note: This is a redo of my old prediction piece. I really wanted to make you think, why take something that doesn't belong to you. Nothing good will comes out of it.

As Cody took the fortune that was never his, he began to realize that this wasn't the right thing to do, but before he could return the hook it would be too late. Before he even thought about the consequences he takes the hook and leaves. As Cody started to comprehend this situation he began to think that it is extremely wrong to take something that doesn't belong to you. He decided to sleep on this thought and do something about it tomorrow. The morning couldn't have came fast enough; Cody realized that he had to bring the hook back. He did it anyway. Just as he approached shed, that he took the hook from. He saw that everything was shuffled around; it wasn't in the same spot he left it in. By this time he knew something was up. Just as Cody set the hook down, the rightful owner took his life.

Fall of 1995

Author's Note: This was a creative piece that I wrote to show people that I know how to write a narrative beginning. This story will keep you waiting at the end of your seat to see what happens next in this horror story

It was the fall of 1995. Dark. Branches scraping across the side of the house. Rain falling like glass shatters as it hits the ground. Every night the rain came down and the branches scraped across the side of the house but, this night was different. This time there was a howl once every three minutes. As the morning awoke, the skies filled with darkness. Not a single crack of sunlight came shinning through.

I woke up from my sleep, I realized that my jar of lotion has been knocked over. At that point in time I didn't think anything of it but, as I went to go set them up again, I felt a cold breeze touch the top of my neck. I had no idea how to react so as my muscles in my shoulder tensed up on me, my only hope was to stand there without moving an inch. Before I could do anything, I felt another breeze, but this time it was hot air and the sound of someone breathing was slowly creeping up behind me.

Mid-noon was just around the corner. My stomach was starting to growl at me. I slowly began to walk down the stairs. Just before I reached to step on the second stair, I heard an extremely loud screechy sound. My foot wasn't even on the step as it made this sound. As I finished walking down the stairs, my mind started to ponder what had just happened a couple seconds ago realized that this house had to be haunted.

I thought to myself, that must be crazy. Ever since I was a little kid I had been living in that house. Both my mom and dad passed away in this very house. Could this mean something? Maybe the fact that they died in this house, their souls could be still here. But why would they haunt me? I’m their daughter. This couldn't have been true. But sooner or later I will get to the bottom of this.

The town I lived in for my whole life might have been just a big mistake. It’s a very small town; not a lot of people live here. The ones who do all have a story to tell, but if I were to get it out of them I could possibly get to the bottom of this. I decided to go outside to get some fresh air, even though the skies were just filled with darkness; it’s better than being inside. I knew with knowing too much that if I were to confront a cop they would all think I am crazy. At this point in time with everybody having a secret, nobody is safe. It’s one for all.

Not a single human being lived within a mile from of  me. I was surrounded by trees and nature. As I walked outside I glanced out and saw a shadow. From a distance it didn't look like anything, but as I walked closer to my car it keep creeping closer and closer. At this point in time I had to stick my key into my car to unlock it and my key wouldn’t go into the lock. Finally the shadow came closer and from that distance it looked like a shadow but, really it was a ghost.  I got the key into the lock and unlocked the car. I hopped into the car and started the engine.

Before I could get my foot to the pedal the ghost got into the car and sat in the passenger seat. My breathing began to slow down to a stop. The ghost got out of the car my foot was already “pedal to the metal”. I had to get out of here. There was no way I was going to go back to that house ever again. As I’m speeding to get away my heart couldn't be pounding  faster.

The rain starts to fall again. I sounds like glass shattering as it hits the ground. Dark clouds began to fill the sky. I knew that this day wasn't going to last any longer. I start to lose focus of the road but, regain it again. This point I have no idea where I am going. All I know is that something is going to happen to me, and at this point I have no idea when it is going to happen. I lose control of the wheel again. I can’t regain control of the wheel and ran into a tree. The impact of hitting the tree killed me.  My time was coming to an end. By losing my focus it ended up killing me.

First Snowfall

Author's Note - This is a creative piece that Mr. Graf's class did as bell work. I decided to write this piece on positive reasons of having snow. Since I love snow this was a really easy piece to write 

         Just until the snow fell, schools were even closing before there was a single snowflake on the ground. 6:30pm couldn't have came any slower. By that time we had buckets of snow already on the ground. That first step into the snow, almost feels like you are standing on a cloud. Kids running outside, building snow forts and running with joy. As the night draws near, more snow keeps on falling and for the kids it was time to heat up and have steaming hot chocolate before you go to bed. Before the hot chocolate could even hit my tongue; I felt the heat linger on to my tongue. It was finally time for bed, tomorrow is definitely going to be a snow day. The next morning rolled around with the snow just enough to call it a school day. 

5:45am my mom wakes me up to tell me that school has been canceled. I ran like a racehorse downstairs to get my snow gear, and bring it upstairs. I could have been happier that today was a snow day. I decided to gather the kids from around the neighborhood to play a game of hide and go seek. This day should never end.   

Just Before...

Author's Note: This is a creative piece with imagery. I tried to make this piece very descriptive because I want you to be able to picture yourself in this place

As the tiger roamed the city alone, as king of the town, people scurried far away from the town as they could.  “A wild tiger has escaped from the zoo,” the news reporter said.  Just as the tiger lurked up behind him, he jumped up and killed him, leaving one less person in this town now. Some people were still living in their homes while others evacuated as quicker than you could say There’s a wild tiger loose in this town. People couldn’t  leave this town, because as the king escaped, he let out more tigers. He used those tigers for killing other people and making sure that nobody else could leave. As the tigers watched and watched they didn’t find any movement whatsoever. The king of the town decided to look around and see what was up. He realized that nobody was in their homes, nobody was out in the streets, sooner or later the Animal Control came and stood directly across from the man eating tiger.

Once they were ready to duel, the other tigers came right out behind the king. The Animal Cop knew that he was out numbered but that never stopped him.  The Animal Cop called his other buds as they came out behind him. They slowly approached each other right before the tiger sprinted toward him, the others followed the king and took down the Animal Cops, along with his assistants. Anyone who enters will never get out; these tigers were kings of the town.

Love Will Find You

Author’s Note: This is a creative piece that we had to write and I decided to do my on love and tips and little things about it as you read it. I hope you enjoy this piece as I had writing this.

Your heart is a very strong muscle. But where do your feelings really come from?  People will always say after a breakup that their heart is broken and it can never be loved by anyone else the same the way.  Technically it’s not broken because your heart is a muscle that pumps blood throughout your body.  Having loved someone with all your heart and then saying you two can never be together ever again. That is really a heart break, but is it just a feeling that your brain has?

People will have relationships that will last 3 years and then they will eventually get married that’s how things are in the movies and sometimes like in reality. For my mom and dad it was that same exact way. They had dated for about 8 years until saying I do. Having loved someone for 8 years is a real relationship which shows huge commit and more importantly it’s something special. People who breakup after a couple of weeks isn’t right, but what it does teach you: to see what you want in a guy.

To find that prefect guy you are going to have to date people and see what you like and you don’t like. I can tell you that honestly I really don’t know what I want in a guy yet. If you were to date somebody and you really love then how would  if they love you back and how exactly would they express it. Love can hurt someone and love can make you feel like that guy will never let you go. That guy will be waiting for you just around the corner and there will be obstacles in the way so just keep your head up and keep moving.

Missing Pieces

Author's Note: I was shown a picture and this is what I came up with.

How many pieces does a person start with? Nobody will ever start will all pieces.  To be able to do that you have to accept your flaws; know what you are not perfect.. Everybody will make mistakes somewhere in there lifetime. Once you accept your mistakes you will have to find the pieces and keep building to find out what the puzzle really is.

You can’t judge someone without getting to know all there pieces.  Without their pieces you are only seeing half of them. The best key is finding a friend that will help you find out who they really are.  As we grow older you can lose pieces or gain pieces. If you are losing them you are letting people use you are letting people use your flaws against you. 

The more pieces you are slowly finding that means you are standing up for something in your life. As you gain pieces you aren’t letting people use your flaws against you.  If you find someone that will help you find out who you really are then they will become that person that will stand up for you when millions are against you. 

Is Love Worth Taking a Risk?

Author's Note: Take caution when you read this because there is a spoiler alert, maybe two. This would be completely different if it was in a different point of view. This is my take on it and I hope you enjoy it. 

Ever wonder what makes you fall in love? Dear John by Nicholas Sparks, tells his story in a first person point of view which is John. This book is all about love and romance, but what if it was told from a different point of view? The main character John decided to drop out of school and go back to the army, until he meets the girl of his dreams: she changes everything about him.

 “I say that I didn’t mean to fall in love with someone else.” Savannah wrote in a letter to John. Just imagine how it would feel receiving that letter, or even worse writing it. If the point of view changed and went to the third person which is Savannah's, how would it feel to have to be totally honest and say that you love someone else? Once it sent, she, couldn’t do anything to take it back. She knew that it would have been incredibly difficult for John to understand. Once John had received that letter he was extremely  mad and frustrated he didn’t understand what had gone wrong.

In the relationship with Savannah and John, it would have been different to hear Savannah’s point of view. Having to write the letter telling John she loved someone else would have been different to hear it from Savannah’s point of view. If would have been hard for Savannah to tell John something like this. How would John interpret that? Did he think that he could change Savannah’s feelings for someone else? When John, came home from being in the war he went over to Savannahs house just to see how things were going, but he really came over to tell Savannah he still loved her. When John arrived he asked if they could talk. Savannah was willing to engage in a conversation with John. When he said his dad past away from a heart attack, Savannah’s eyes started to fill up with tears and was about to let her emotions go. She knew that it was hard for John to go through something like this and then adding the engagement between Savannah and Tim, was challenging for John.

I know how it feels to lose someone who means the world to them. My great grandpa died from a heart attack. It was crucial to go through something like this, but I had super supportive parents that helped me get through something this tough. I know what it feels like to be in both Savannah’s and John’s shoes. Do you think Savannah had ever regret breaking up with John or telling him she loved someone else? Just to hear, I’m sure it was bitter for Savannah; if this would have been Savannah’s point of view, do you think she would have stayed with John or remained with Tim knowing how harsh it was for John?

Sometimes love is cold-blooded. It will always be a risk falling in love with someone.  Even though John didn’t get the girl in the end, he will always love her and Savannah knows that. Just because your love story isn’t like the movies, you can start your own story and still be happy. Nicholas Sparks has done a magnificent job describing love from a guys point of view. As John walked away and looked back with a tear in his eye he waved his last goodbye. Is love worth taking a risk or is the hurt worth loving someone again? Could John ever love someone like he loved Savannah and be happy? 

Love Changes Anybody

Author's Note: We had to write a theme essay. I had to think a little bit before I got my topics and that is love can change anybody and it takes place in the book the Hunger Games.

In many stories love can change a character's behavior. In the Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins has a very special way of showing that love. The love connection that Gale and Katniss was more like a brother sister love, but it changes Katniss while she was in District 12. Katniss did everything with Gale until the reaping that’s when everything between Katniss and Gale changed.

When Katniss volunteered for Prim, Katniss did know what was going to happen with her relationship with Gale; when she moved to the Hunger Games. It changed Katniss going to the Hunger Games especially with Gale not being right by her side. Having to make new friends was hard for her; when she isn’t the person to be social with others. As she grew closer with Peeta. (which was the guy that got picked for the other tribute in district 12) They started to have a connection with each other.

Once Katniss knew that she had a solid relationship with Peeta, she taught her Hunger Games experience would change with having that relation with Peeta. Throughout the Hunger Games Katniss’s love for Peeta changed Peeta and Katniss but also Gale. After the Hunger Games had finished Peeta thought that this love would last but Katniss told Peeta that everything will go back to normal once we get back. So what is Katniss trying to say? Is she in love with both Peeta and Gale?

How many books can you find that have a story plot like this? If you love to read romance books you will be able to find this with any book. I found a connection with the romance like Katniss and Peeta. The book is called Forgotten, Cat Patrick. It talks about love in a similar way that Suzanne Collins does. In the book Forgotten a girl like Katniss goes through decisions  that will change her life forever. Cat Patrick really does a good job taking Suzanne Collins idea of romance and put it into her own way. In both books it’s so neat to see that both of the main character learn to trust people unlike the beginning of both books; both characters didn’t trust people.Until they meet the ones that will love them for who they are.

Books like the Hunger Games and Forgotten has an incredible romance plot line to it. It’s amazing to see how a character can change just because love came into their lives. Throughout the Hunger Games, Katniss has two of these love experiences but one really changes her. That’s her love with Peeta during the Hunger Games. Love can change anybody as long as you are open to them.

Unconditional Love

Author's Note: I had wrote this poem just for fun and I was super pumped to write this because I love my mom and dad very much..I hope you enjoy it and if you have anything you want to say there is a comment box below

Mom, Dad, thank you for being there,

supporting me, no matter what.

I walk more closely with Christ because you care.

Words cannot describe the help you've brought.

 

Ups or downs, you show me unconditional love

and full support every single day.

No matter my choices, you still hold me above

any imperfect things I might do or say.

 

Every child of yours has a place and a part,

no matter the good and the bad we go through.

I love how you love us with all of your heart;

how you love ME, no matter what I do.

 

Appreciation so strong I don't have the words,

and love that never changes,

soars for you in my heart like the flight of a bird!

You can't imagine how great its range is.

 

Hopefully this gift will make you smile;

I do what I can in return for this love.

And over every smooth or bumpy mile,

this love is forever, with help from above.

 

What I think Will Happen...

Author's Note: This is my prediction piece. In the reading lab we had to write what we thought what was going to happen to Cody and this is what I thought. So I hope you enjoy this and leave a comment if you think I need to fix anything

I think that the story will end like this...As the boy is running away back to his house I think that he changes and realizes that he should do what the man told him to do. I think if he does this he will get good out of it or in return. If Cody doesn't put the gold hook in the cast it  I think something bad might happen to Cody (such as haunted and other stuff). When Cody gets ready for bed, I believe that something will happen to him and he will either put the hook in Clarence's cast it or he will not.

As Cody rushed home he still has that repeating thought pondering in his mind. He doesn't know what he should do. Cody has two different feels going on. In the inside of Cody he screaming "I am finally not poor I have money." 

Changes Affects People Too

Author's Notes: Katniss never really been the person to open up to other people. But this piece really make you think on how Katniss changes throughout her Hunger Games experience.

Katniss Everdeen has impacted many people within her district and the community. She has impacted people with her bravery, for volunteering for her sister. Katniss was well known for what she did to save her sister. When Katniss went to the interviews the whole audience had came up with a name for her “The Girl on Fire.” The name never left her side.

Katniss has changed throughout the story. She really has never been the person to be open to other people; she was more the type of person that was quiet and really wasn’t a social butterfly. She has a huge impact on the people because the more people that liked her  the more gifts that she got to make Hunger Games easier.

Inside Scoop of Your Founding Fathers

Authors Note: This is not that easy to come up with something to write about our founding fathers. So I really that to think and this is what I came up with . I hope you enjoy

“The harder the conflict, the greater the triumph.” George Washington. Imagine talking to one of the first presidents that would be such and honor.  Being able to talk with one of our 44 president would be such a privilege.  Especially talking to one of our very first presidents. 

For me it would be such a great pleasure to talk George Washington because he was a very first president.  In one case he was chosen to lead the Continental Army. That would be the most significant feeling in the world to be chosen to lead the Continental Army in war. In addition I would also thank you for being such a wonderful role model He got things done when they were supposed to get done; he just did everything he was supposed to do. You know what really catches me off guard is... how did George Washington get things done within a certain time period? As a president I think it would be really hard to do, because with all that pressure for being the first president. Just think how hard it would be trying to run a country but then having a meeting to worry about. I grantee that a lot of people can relate to this; I think that people can relate because there is a lot of pressure with having to get something done within a period of time.

With having that pressure to worry about might as well add some more because he had to keep his country safe from any harm. Personally I don't think I could make it in the office for 4 years as a president. I think it would be extremely hard, but I'm glad that we have a president like George Washington, if we didn't what type of world would we be. Mr. Washington did such a good job in whatever he did. He was a great role model for those around him. He set goals for him that he was able to achieve. If I was to have a chance to sit down and talk to him I don’t think I would be able to find any flaws that he has. As a president  he was honest. He did everything he was told.

Many different people would have different things to say to him or to ask him. That's okay. I know that in my own opinion that he was a great first president. I would have to spend a whole day with him just to ask him all my question and how much I appreciate his hard work toward his country. 

His loyalty, his hard working and goals that he set for himself made people realize that we need more presidents like this. The people will always remember George Washington as a hard working president. I really appreciate all the work and hard dedication that he put toward his country. Thank you George Washington 

Hunger Games: Cause and Effect

Author's Note: Mrs. Mundt gave us an assignment and that was to do a cause and effect, at first I thought that this would be a challenged. I thought it over and I was like I could do the book the Hunger Games so I did and this is what I said.

In the Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen's sister Prim was chosen as one of the tributes to fight; Katniss promised Prim that she wouldn't get picked as one of the tributes. To keep her promised Katniss volunteered for Prim. In the Hunger there are 24 tributes, 2 from each district all 24 tributes will fight until one is left as the victor. 

Suzanne Collins has made the effect extremely clear in this story. If Katniss won't have volunteered for her sister; Katniss probably wouldn't have never saw her sister again. I say that because I have seen the movie and read the book that the older tributes will kill the younger ones first.  

Conflict & Resolution: Forgotten

Author's Note: This book is started off with... At 4:33 am London's memory will be erased and she will not remember anything to help her with this she finds some friends and finds a boy that will help her and encourage her.

In the book Forgotten, at 4:33 am everything in London's head is erased . As she enters the day she can't even remember what she did the day before.  London and her mom aren't super close; which this means that it will be harder to talk about these things with her mom. On the other hand she doesn't have many friends to fall back on.

In the book she has to find some way to help herself remember things. To solve conflict every night before she went to bed she wrote in a journal to remember the things that she did that day. Later in the book London has found a guy that likes her for who she is and is willing to help her remember the things they did together and even just to remember what she did that very day.

The Truth With Being Wrong

Author’s Note: Will anybody know what the difference between right and wrong, a lot of people will think its wrong but who is to tell you it’s not. I wrote this piece because I really needed to get this story out. I think people need to know not everybody is going to think everybody is right. Many people will think that you are doing something wrong but you really aren't.

Right and wrong. What’s the difference? Some people may think you are doing something wrong, but at the same time you probably wouldn't care what the punishment is. Take it from somebody that might know what it feels like. I can tell you a little bit of my story that reflect right and wrongs and what your may be punishment.

My friend and I had gone to Fox Brook Park and it was around middle of March where the water was still frozen. My friend had suggested that we go on the ice with our bikes and at that point I did go but I knew that there was some type of feeling inside of me telling me not to go, Idid it anyways. My friend was already biking on the ice like there was no tomorrow.... then was that weird feeling in me that I knew that something wasn’t right, but instead I totally ignored that feeling. Then at that moment I hear my friend shout "Come on Maria, it's not like we will get in trouble for doing this" "Brooke shouted to me.

As I was waiting on the edge of the ice I heard Brooke call me again “Maria come on, nothing is going to happen.” I went on the ice not even thinking about what is going to happen. Just a couple minutes after I was on the ice with Brooke we heard something shout in the distance “You guys better get off the ice before I call the cops.” We didn’t think that she was going to call the cops, but we did as she said and got off the ice. As we were biking home we saw a cop driving through the walkways asking people if they knew who was on the ice. When the cop made it to us he first asked us if we were the people on the ice. I didn’t know what to say so I lied and said no we were not on the ice with your bikes. Then he asked if we knew the people on the ice and we answered no we did not.

Me and Brooke raced home, we didn’t know if the cop was going to follow us or not, we just didn’t know what to expect. When we got home we promised each other that we wouldn’t tell anybody this story. From that day forward I have not told anybody this story, until I wrote this piece. When Brooke left my house and went home I really didn’t know why I was that scared we couldn’t have gotten in trouble for doing something that we didn’t know that it was wrong.

How are people supposed to know that they are doing something wrong without knowing it is? That’s the problem, Brooke and I didn’t know that it was wrong until somebody said we were not supposed to go the ice. Even though we didn’t know it was wrong other people thought it was. Which is perfectly okay because not everybody will think it is okay to do things that we are doing.

Book Ad: The Hunger Games

Author's Note: This is a retelling piece about the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I really enjoyed doing this because I had a super fun time reading this book. 

The Hunger Games: 24 tributes fight until the death, until 1 tribute is left standing.  A young girl has volunteered to fight in The Hunger Games to take the place of her sister. In the battle she fights herself, other tributes and the forces of nature. In the battle she learns that she will have to open up to people.

What's Really On the Inside

Authors  Note:  Friends... there are so many things that can start a fight, even the smallest things in the world. It is okay to get in a fight with a friend once and while so whatever you do don't put the weight on your shoulders. It may turn around and help your friendship or it may lead your friendship to an end. 

 "Friends show their love in times of trouble." Euripides has an amazing point. It may seem to be the hardest thing in the world to understand but it is 100% true. Take it from somebody that knows what it feels like to be in a fight with a friend. In a best friend relationship it is perfectly normal to get in a fight with a friend, but in a fight it’s typical to team up on each other, that’s how my first fight began.

Most of the time, friends will tell the story to their other  friends eventually they will team up on you until you finally…break and you have to apologize for something that you didn’t even do. Every day I come home crying. This fight was not getting any better. Eventually we had finally ended our friendship because all we did was we got in fights with each other and we just couldn’t stand the fact that every time we turned around we were back at a fight, but the exotic  part was I still can remember the whole conversation word for word.

It was in the middle of 6^th grade and we were outside waiting for school to end and I was playing on the playground. My friend at that moment walks over and we were in a fight and she goes “If we are never going to get along, why be friends?” She says to me. Then at that very minute I knew that this conversation was going to go south rapidly . As she said that, a lot of things were floating through my life like what am I going to say to her question. Then when I had finished thinking I had to break it to her “I’m sorry but if we are going to keep on fighting I just can’t be your friend anymore.” I said to her while I was still on the playground

That year I had I found out how to pick out my friends with picky mind. When you are in a fight with a friends not only love will come through but friends may show their true colors. When I say your true colors may show, I mean they aren’t the same people as they were before you were fighting. Or just in general. Things may happen with friends that may put you relationship to the test.

Fighting can be the most annoying thing in the world because its everywhere. Tons and tons of people are fighting, whether or not it has to do with money or what clothes to buy at a store. It’s everywhere. There are many things to do  to resolve problems. Finding the right friends. But finding a friend may seem easy, couple months hang out with your friend may be the biggest nightmare you may have but not in all circumstances. I could very well be the best dream you have, but it all depends on your decision. 

So Love Really Does Never Fail

Author's Note: You know when people say "the best why is to let your anger out is by expressing it." Well I tried something new and I worked pretty well. The thing is I wasn't mad or upset. I felt love and by doing this, it was my only way of expressing it


You know that feeling where somebody says they can’t be together because of the “long-distance-relationship” I know that it is impossible to go through something as hard as that.Do guys always do you that just say that to make you feel better because they really don’t like you or is it really because of long distance relationships? Nobody will really know the answer...except for him.

Love could be the hardest thing is the world to get over. Especially if you think this could be your chance of finding that love that will never leave you. Guess again. Love could ever well be the hardest thing to understand but who will ever know that. Only you. Well it kind of depends, anybody can really feel it but who will ever know that you feel it.
