Challenges can influence the way a person thinks and understands a complicated situation. For example, Kohan’s article states, when going through a hard time, “embracing adversity is almost always discovered in the aftermath” of a tough challenge that may expose hidden talents. Obstacles can show a person their achievement in…
Everyone goes through rough patches and struggles in their lives. People go through grief, addiction, loneliness, pain and all kinds of hardships through important points in their lives. What defines most of us and makes us who we are however, are these tragic and painful moments of struggle. The Other Wes Moore by Wes Moore taught me that my own struggles and obstacles shouldn’t and cannot ever bring me down. In the introduction of the novel, Wes Moore says that “…our destinies can be determined by a single stumble down the wrong path, or a tentative step down the right one.” His statement has truly spoken to my soul, to inspire me to truly never give up and to never surrender to paths that will permanently pull me down.…
Thus the joys of God are fervent with life, where life itself fades quickly into the earth. The wealth of the world neither reaches to Heaven nor remains. No man has ever faced dawn certain which of Fate's three threats would fall: illness, age, or an enemy's sword, snatching the life from his soul…
If you see someone getting bullied for something they can’t help, you should say something. Making fun of someone for something they can’t help is wrong and you should stand up for that person. Helping someone out is the right thing to do. You wouldn’t want to be picked on and nobody stand up for you. Like in the story “Angel in Disguise”, it talks about how nobody wanted this little girl because she was sick.…
The bible is the mind of God in the hand of humankind yet, how one presents the the text is the question for the readers. Literary Analysis allows him or her to examine and share the pericope with a clear theological connection.…
William F Buckley quoted “If all difficulties were known at the outset of a long journey most of us would never start at all”. This quote relates to journeys, specifically to inner journeys with the intention that many journeys are difficult and if individuals knew how difficult the journey was going to be, then most of us would not even commence the journey. A journey is simply a movement from one place to another. Physical journeys are gateways to inner journeys, which is a journey of the mind and spirit. Inner journeys take place when an individual experiences events or is involved in relationships that act as a catalyst to gain greater understanding about themselves and the world. Inner journeys can be deliberately initiated, but is usually the result of new circumstances where the individual changes themselves or their perspective of themselves, others or the world.…
Good Morning fellow students and teachers. Journey is a vital aspect in our lives. Everyone in here will encounter a type of journey whether it’s physical, imaginative or inner, They happen to everyone, whether we want it or not. Life itself is a journey with many challenges to overcome, with many experiences to learn from and with many opportunities to explore. Journeys allow us to grow, to become wiser, and to look at life from a different perspective. As you can see in the stimulus Image, many challenges arise when going through a personal journey, we are unexpected of the challenges, we must overcome obstacles, we must face these challenges even though they might be seen impossible to over whelm. Today’s speech will focus on two different journeys, one from Louis Nowra’s comic play, ‘Cosi’ and the other from Ben Stiller’s movie, ‘The Secret life of Walter Mitty’.…
Block the bully. Treat others with…
Eleanor Roosevelt, Former First Lady of the USA, once stated, “Do what you feel in your heart to be right, for you’ll be criticized any ways.” I find this quote to be so inspiring because many don’t want to voice their opinion to not contradict other people’s belief. This quote also relates to me because I am a leader and have dealt with the issue of being scrutinized for my own beliefs. When I was younger, I was a bystander of bullying because I feared to be the next victim. I never stood up to the bully nor helped the victim. However, I soon learned not voicing my opinion lead to the bully becoming stronger and victimizing more people. I realized that if no one stood up there wouldn't be no change. So one day, I stood up to this bully. This small action lead to everyone else joining and putting a stop…
An equally prominent theme is the occurrence of the need for changing paths as obstacles arise and the effect such change has upon the arrival. These texts demonstrate how the intended destination is often not the final destination.…
Every day, somewhere in the world, someone is getting bullied and it’s your choice whether or not to do something about it. Most people choose to stay out of harm’s way if they’re not the one getting bullied and few people choose to stand up for themselves if they are the one bullied. I believe that helping or asking for help is the only way to solve a bullying problem. The reason why people choose not to say anything is because they’re scared of what might happen. The “consequence” of telling on someone is what most people think about first, so why put yourself in a place where you don’t need to be right? If it’s not your problem then it’s not a problem to you at all? These thoughts are the reasons why bullying is never stopped.…
Everyone in the world has had to overcome some kind of obstacles in their life. Obstacles can be a very small or even a very big thing in our everyday lives. For example, an obstacle could be if you have enough money to buy milk to having to overcome being homeless and struggling to get through life all alone. People typically learn from their own life obstacles or maybe even from reading about someone else’s obstacles in their life. Nobody wants to have to overcome any obstacles or have any troubles in our lives but it is just a part of making our lives better from what it was like before. I have learned about many obstacles from many books and movies such as: The Mighty, Of Mice and Men, and A Child Called “It”.…
“Everybody goes through trials in their life, but you gotta keep pushing” says Stephen when you ask him about his life now. Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once. No matter what obstacles get in your way never let them get you down. Continue to stay focused on what you dream of and never stray away from that…
