Personal Narrative-Am I M Jewish
I’m Jewish
And sometimes I don’t know why the hell we do this
All this hatred between religions with different visions
Leaves me clueless

Yo Ken believe me I know what you saying
Seen fire in the streets
Hearts no longer beat
But listen to what im sayin

You can fight fire with fire and blood with blood
But only when you diffuse the rage you have peace will come
My soul is soaked with pain and perpetration
Your soul is cloaked in rage and indignation

I don’t see the light at the end of the tunnel
Am I blind? Or just realistically inclined
I try to open my eyes but the wider they get
I only see more fighting and blood shed

Morals taught by a government of corruption
With leaders that sit on thrones of lies and disruption of peace, yet there’s no place id rather be
…show more content…
So I wonder what do I do as a member of man kind
A club that idk if I wanna be on its

    After I took the MCAT in June, my life became a little hectic. Besides for completing applications, my parents decided to move to Israel. I was the only child living at home, so they desperately needed my help. We had to empty the house, get rid of all the clutter, and pack the rest of it onto a container. The house needed to be sold, so while packing, we had contractors work on the house. Personally, I was moving to Brooklyn and had to find a job and a place to live. There were many challenges. For Example, the contractor painted the bathroom door, but would not take responsibility when it didn’t close. As of now, I am sleeping on my sister’s floor and trying to finalize a part-time teaching job. I have learned how to remain calm though stressful…

    Religion is one of the factors that help to maintain balance in the world. There are many religions in this world. Every religion has its own beliefs and ways of following it. Religions may vary in many aspects. While some religions may have the same beliefs, some will have the exact opposite beliefs. I come from a place where even though there are many religions found I get to observe and practice only my own religion. Even if people are open about different religions, one religion being involved in another is not acceptable for my society. This is one of the reasons why I have always been curious about other religions and their ways of following and practicing it. This is why when I got a chance to go to a Jewish Synagogue as a part of a religious service…

    I am a Jew! Due to that very important fact, some parts of my life were harder than it would have been if I was a Christian or Catholic. But using my faith in myself and my religion I was able to persevere myself. A good quote that describes myself is from a Kelly Clarkson song “What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, Stand a little taller, Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone”. I always think of that song whenever something bad happens that makes me question myself, my friends, or my beliefs. I believe that simple words and beliefs don’t define a person, but their actions towards others do.…

    When I was assigned this assignment I was skeptical, but this assignment really helped me understand myself. There wasn't much information to go off of besides, show who you are, so this is who I am. This picture displays me hanging from a tree, with water behind me, and it's featuring my BYU hoodie.…

    My family and I hear banging and yelling at our door as we know who are visitors are, the Nazi’s. We are violently being pushed around as the soldiers yell into our ears making me feel almost deaf. I’m pushed away from my family as I see their faces of fear. I can see children crying and begging to soldiers for their parents as parents yelled and screamed back. We are taken to the camps that will be our new home for now. I finally get to meet up with my mother again as she puts her hands on my face. I hug my mother as we then are taken to get our new looks. My mother and I are taken to get our new clothing. Then they shove us to get our hair shaved off. A buzzer turns on and soon we are shaved. It’s so hard for me to look at my mother cry…

    I don’t know how to begin to define myself in order for you to understand who I truly am. I believe there is more to a person than stories that mould us into who we are today; like when one asks, “Tell me your story," I don’t think about that time when my family broke into two or that time I was diagnosed with my mental illnesses. I think of coffee, because coffee is bitter and bitter people drink coffee, sad people; people with heavy hearts and heavy footsteps, with tangled thoughts, people with anxiety and words left unspoken, people like me. Lonely people drink coffee. I think of the world map I have in my room with thumbtacks marking every country I want to visit. I think of foreign languages, and how beautiful it sounds when words form…

    Culture is an important and vital component that defines who and what we are as a person. We interface with cultural difference on a daily basis. So what exactly is culture? Good Question! I will attempt to identify my own cultural and explain what cultural means to me. So, lets start by defining the term culture. “Culture is a particular society that has its own beliefs, ways of life, art, etc.”. (Merriam-Webster Dictionary, 2015) My cultural identity consists of several parts. I am most foremost a female that has a variety of racial genetic makeup of African-American, Native American, and European descent. I was raised in a Christian religious household and in a primarily single parent home. I have a sister and a half brother on my father’s…

    I love big people, they can be so cute. I remember when I first arrived. The bright lights, the welcome committee, with their ear-to-ear smiles beneath their surgical masks — magical — however, I did think the slap on the butt was uncalled for, but bless their hearts, they get so emotional.…

    It is a feeling that is indescribable. A feeling that makes you feel like you belong. Because here, I know I belong. This feeling is so overwhelming. Not the kind of overwhelming that makes you feel anxious or stressed or fearful, although those emotions are not abnormal here. As I am sitting at the usual welcome circle, which is how we start every event, I sit next to the people, my friends, who I have grown to know over the last three years.…

    Being Jewish in a non-Jewish world can be a struggle, especially for a teenager. There are times when you have to make choices between celebrating what makes you unique and special and trying to fit in with everyone else. To some, it might be easier to just be like everyone else, to conform, and to ignore their Jewish identity and the Jewish values that go along with living and being Torah, but is this right? Personally, I feel that in a world with rising anti-Semitism, increasing hate crimes against Jews, and negative sentiments expressed towards Israel, that it is my role to be more active as a Jew. It is important to me to embrace what it means to be a Jew in today’s world and to be comfortable representing this amongst people who are different from myself. If the Jewish message is that everyone is…

    As a young child, I never really understood the concept of having a healthy racial identity. Racial identity was not a topic of conversation in school; however school and other factors have had major effects on my racial identity. I was not even familiar with what it meant to be a Black individual. When I was younger, I did not focus on being black or white, I solely focused on playing with other children. However, it was not until racist events began to occur did I begin to question my identity. Anyone would think that a child whom was raised in a family where racial pride is prominent would evidently grow into an adult that also projects this racial pride. However, distinct racist events, micro-aggressions, and other events have a major impact on how children and adults contract their racial identity.…

    I’ve had difficulty talking about my religious history, not out of any sort of embarrassment, but simply because my explanations never seem at all accurate. I tend to organize my past into stages. It makes sense in normal life, usually stages come naturally. For example I just finished my college stage and have recently entered my unemployed stage. Simple and accurate. I usually try to describe my religious history in a similar methodology, I have the stage where I followed my parents, my agnostic stage, my hyper-conservative christianity phase, and my current stage. Although I have used this description every time I tell anyone about my religious history, it has always felt… off.…

I was going to do something but I was confused on what to do.…

    Unfortunately people of different beliefs and religion started to dislike each other. It started form way back in history. The Muslims had fights with the Jewish, Protestants with the Catholics and so on... Yes Religions say, "there is no other god" but they also say, "do not kill" and sadly people often forget about that very important 2nd part. During the ruling of Queen Mary in England a lot of Catholics and Protestants were killed in a war between the 2 religions. In Russia the people believed in Christianity before Vladimir Krasnosolnishko didn't change it to be a different kind of Christianity and killed many people who believed in the old form. In the Middle East many wars were fought between the Jewish and the Muslims. Now days some people still dislike each other only because of the Religious Beliefs. Kids get beaten up after school, or workers fired in many countries outside of the US. But "why not just let people differ about their answers to the great mysteries of the Universe? Let each seek one's own way to the highest, to one's own sense of supreme loyalty in life, one's ideal of life. Let each philosophy, each world-view bring forth its truth and beauty to a larger perspective, that people may grow in vision, stature and…
