Our Thoughts Struggles in Life Can Be with Ourselves
The lessons we learn affect our future

Some people may say the lessons that we learn today will not affect our future. In my point of view, I disagree this statement. The lessons are not only the lessons that we learn from school, on the other hands, their can be the lessons that we learn from society. I thinks most of us have been to be a volunteer. Being volunteer is a wonderful experience, is also a very good lessons that we learn from society. hose When I was in 9, my parents and I went to the orphanage to helped those orphans. At that time, I used to like a princess. I had loving family and friends. I can do what i want and didn’t need to worried about everything because my parents did everything for me. Compared with those orphans, I was a lucky girl. However, before I went to the orphanage, I never realized that.

We reached the orphanage, I surprised that so many children lived in one room, and the children from there just wore shabby old clothes. I was thinking about myself. I have a individual room, I have a comfortable bed and colorful wallpaper and etc. I never know how lucky I am. Then, I led them to the ground and played games with them. Some of them were so poor, they cannot played with us because they had some disorders. I was trying hard to make happy with them. During the break, I told the story that I read from my Green’s Fairy Tales. They were so focus on my story, and I were so happy that I can made them happy. After I finish told the tales, they were still immersed in interesting story. I were amazed that they listened the fairy tales hardly, so I decided to donate some fairy books for them afterward. Additionally, I had a lunch with those little friends. It’s time to went home, but I wanted to stay there for a while and showed them more interesting things. Finally, I promised them that I will go there afterward.

In the way home, dad asked me about my feeling of them. I said I realized how lucky I am and I won’t complain something.

    To be sure, no lesson provides an authenticity and durability as that gained through first-hand experience. However, if the world's destiny hinged upon the inevitability of personal experience learned through tangible performance, there would undoubtedly be a continuous recycling of mistakes, misadventures, and catastrophes throughout history. As a result, societal advancement would be limited to the knowledge gained and exercised in a lifetime. Imagine every generation being left to repeat essentially the same process in a perpetual state of affairs. In the 1993 movie Groundhog Day, the protagonist (Bill Murray) had to repeat the same day over again, scores of times, in order to gain enough information to break out of an inexplicable cycle…

    The room was so warm compared to the blistering cold previously endured by Jonas and Gabriel. The family unit was so generous and caring they quickly accepted Gabriel and Jonas almost as if they were part of their family. They even gave them presents of their own. The smallest girl with the pale eyes handed Gabriel a package while the male nurturer handed Jonas a vibrantly wrapped present with a red bow. At first Jonas didn't know what to do with it but soon remembered the memory.…

    Although "The Cask of Amontillado" and "A&P" are narrated by two considerably distinct types of narrators in very different situations, both of these stories by Edgar Allan Poe and John Updike take on a comparable meaning through the actions that these characters yield based on their reactions to certain events that lead them to make their fixed decisions. Two characters, Montresor from “The Cask of Amontillado” and Sammy from “A&P,” are the main focus of these plots and each of them is seriously affected in a certain way by their alleged enemies, Fortunato (Montresor’s respected acquaintance) and Lengel (Sammy’s uptight boss).…

    What is a lesson? A lesson means an experience, especially an unpleasant one that somebody can learn from, so it does not happen again in the future. And everyone probably had a lesson of some sort before. For me, I have had many lessons throughout my life already, from small things, like you should always bring an umbrella with you to school, never run with your wallet in your pocket, to something big like studying hard before a test. And these mistakes probably changed my life in ways.…

    After introducing myself to all the girls, the 12 girls dragged me to their room with so much excitement. Walking into their room, I had to stop and take a deep breath. I knew the orphanage wouldn't have much, but I never imagined how little they really had. Their room looked like it belonged to an old abandoned house. The ceiling caved in; it smelled of an old dusty attic and had nothing in it but 12 beds, 3 dressers and a couple dirty stuffed animals just lying around. Some girls had pictures of when they were babies, some didn't have anything. I stood there silent. Tears balanced on my eyelids because at that moment, I realized that I have been so ungrateful for what I have, while other young, beautiful girls around the world have nothing but a bed and a stuffed animal. I think about all my clothes, shoes, friends and family that…

    Through class lesson I have learned new things from my classmates, from newspapers and from my teachers. I have learned that we as a nation are too quick to believe when something is right or wrong without taking the accounts into consideration. With this, I have learned to question the details and being more involved to avoid blindly answering. My classmates have taught me that we can all help each other improve. I have examined students in the Wight Foundation helping one another out so we can all excel. There is always room for growth even when you think you are your…

    I was seven years old when I was first admitted to school. My father taught me at home. My elder borther was then reading in the local school. It was decided that I too should go to school with him. I was a bit nervous at first. It was a new and unknown world to me. I feared that I would be among strangers.

The teachers also were affectionate. At last I got over my fear and nervousness to some extent.…
