Life Events That Require Bravery
have so many life events that require bravery. I was on the phone with my mother and she was yelling at me because I didn't wash the dishes. I had to go to work and I was trying to hurry up and get off the phone, so everything she asked me was a yes. I wasn't even paying any attention to what she was asking. One the questions was did I have a ride to work, knowing I didn't. My mother had to go out of town to an event for her job so she wasn't able to come get me.

When I had got off the phone and started thinking to myself I realized that I said yes that I said I had a ride knowing I didn't. I was just trying to get off the phone. I said to myself that I was gone call one of my cousins to see if they could come get me. I went on break and me calling my cousins or somebody to pick me up wasn't even on my mind. I was too busy running my mouth and eating.

I was rushing to get off the clock because I didn't want my "ride" to be waiting on me. I started calling my cousins and haven't gotten an answer. Nobody wouldn't answer my phone calls nor text messages, and I didn't have any cash on me to take a cab home. I was so tired and just wanted to get in my bed! Being that I didn't have a ride nor money I had to walk home. It was so scary not because it was dark and a silent night, it was the creepy people you saw. Well it was creepy to me mama asked if I had a ride from work and I told her yea just so we could get off the phone , so I couldn't blame nobody but myself during this scary situation. My friends were outside but I barely stopped and communicated with them because time was getting shorter and shorter by the foot step I took. In the state of Georgia we have to be home at 11 or 12 for us teens. It was gun shots and people fighting I was so scared I wanted to

    Three Examples Of Bravery

    • 570 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Great movements start with bravery, whether or not it is for good. Bravery, as defined by Merriam Webster is “the quality that allows someone to do things that are dangerous or frightening : the quality or state of being brave.” This quality can be seen in nearly all reformists throughout recorded history. Three notable reformists who demonstrate that quality are Dr. King who gave speeches for black equality, Diane Nash, who organized protests for black equality, and Qutb who inspired the future leaders of Al-Qaeda. Throughout the last century there have been repeated examples of reformists using bravery and courage to enact change. Bravery is an important trait for social reform as seen in Martin Luther King, Diane Nash, and Sayyid Qutb.…

    what courage leads to

    • 1233 Words

    There is this simple saying; be your own superhero. Throughout a persons life, he will face many obstacles and some he will overcome, while others he may not. A person creates many relationships with others, some people will love and accept him for who he is, others will not. Often, one will not know why his peers do not like him, or if they even have a motif to. At the end of the day, it is how a person carries himself, and what he does about it that makes him a stronger individual. In the poem, “There Will Be No Peace,” W.N. Auden advises an individual who has been singled out to act with courage and honesty. I have noticed myself, on occasion, without any support but my own, having to be my own hero and how my own validation has helped me grow. Acts of courage can often develop and nurture personal integrity because when an individual has been singled out by a group, and must rely solely on himself to figure out his morals, he builds confidence and with that honesty, enforcing what he will stand for.…

    We were so happy, I started explaining to her where we were, how the place looked like and that there was a big garbage can, as I explain tears dripped from my eyes. We hugged each other, cried, and stayed put right next to the garbage can. We finally saw my mother’s silver BMW car. We slowly walked towards the car, making sure that it was my mother or one of our parents are in there. I then saw my mother did something with her hand, I know what that meant to hurry up, I told my little cousins to hurry up and get in the car, we ran as fast as we could towards the car and got in. Since then my little cousins and I learned a very big and important lesson that we will never forget, it to your pacings with your family, close and to tell them that you need a break if you are losing your…

    When I was younger about 12 years of age in Brooklyn, New York I felt like my life was coming to an end by a very neglectful man driving. It was a late night, mother and I were visiting my aunt who lived in Brooklyn while we're living in Long Island, New York. We left at 3:00pm on a Friday when I came home from school. We took the N22 bus to the train station and when coming of the bus it smelled disgusting. It smelled like urine because well we were underground and there were many homeless people. It was hot down there so we could smell person's sweat. We were walking through the station a long time because there were a lot of people there. We found that the train we wanted which is the Brooklyn 2 train just left so we had to wait another ten minutes. At this point there were many people standing around us that the…
