One of the worst injuries that has ever occurred to me was having my fingers burned by extremely hot water. It was a cold‚ dark day at 7:31pm‚ and it was just me‚ my older brother‚ Gideon‚ and my younger brother‚ Theodore. I was 9 years old‚ Theodore was 2 years old‚ and Gideon was 12 years old. Every day I would drink some hot tea‚ because I tended to be extremely sensitive to the cold. And when I say sensitive‚ I am talking about that if I was drinking regular temperature water‚ I would be shivering

Growing up‚ I always kept to myself and never got close with many people. My PFO experience has changed this about me. Being able to work with everyone in PFO in a different way this past year has allowed me to build a unique relationship with each person. One of my most memorable experiences was from Night of Gratitude. For this show we rehearsed for only a total of 24 hours before we put on the show. In the 24 hours‚ 20 teens‚ including myself wrote songs and poetry to perform in honor of 10 people

mother. As a young black teenage mother‚ I have learned to grow up quick. The things that I have learned the fastest were to nurture‚ care‚ and to protect my son‚ Jaylen. These were the three basic instincts that I have had since the day I first saw him. As far as I am concerned these instincts will not go away until my soul is resting.

It was a Saturday morning in the fall when Adam’s life changed forever. He had been working as a hit man for the Russian Mafia for a little over 12 years now‚ one of their best workers. He had always desired to have a family‚ but the life he lived was too dangerous to have anyone to look after besides himself. He had been associating with a local woman named Maria. They met at a farmers market about four blocks from Adam’s home. After listening to her aspirations and values‚ he was almost certain

didn’t know heartbreak until June 28‚ when my dad told me that he had stage 4 cancer. I didn’t know fear until August 13‚ when I found out that he would have to undergo radiation to combat a tumor in his brain. I didn’t know weariness until August 24‚ when everyone at school talked about how great their summer had been‚ and I had to lie and say that mine had been fine. I didn’t know how deep my love for my dad ran until June 29‚ when I wiped away my tears‚ stood a little straighter‚ and vowed

“Run! You got this Hannah!”‚ shouted my dad. Hearing him cheer me on urged me to play tougher‚ run faster‚ kick the ball harder. I passed to one of my teammates‚ she scored‚ and the crowd went wild. I turned towards my dad and saw his smile explode across the field making me feel like the utmost adored person in the world. This was my junior year. It has been three months since my father abruptly died. I spent time with him on Sunday and he was gone on Monday. I felt desolate‚ heartbroken‚ and resentful

Sometimes changing the way you view a situation can make all the difference. Even through times where I have had every reason to give up‚ I have chosen to keep a positive attitude. I have found that when I decide to do this‚ it makes me significantly happier‚ and I take much more away from the situation. For a soccer tournament in sixth grade‚ my team and I went

Woken by my father‚ I started rambling barefooted towards my family’s tribe as usual preparing for the day. It remained a typical luminous day‚ you could witness my people carrying out their own roles and their tribes. I for one was with my mother who was trained how farming works and become one day the dominant role of the tribe someday. Consequently‚ I wandered off walking around‚ and I did not notice going quite distant from where I should have been until I was all on my own. In addition‚ I could

My grandma’s condition wasn’t anything but hard for me and my family to deal with. Everyday with her was a roller coaster that held many twists and turns and couldn’t stay on the track. If you didn’t hold on tight‚ you’d thrown off. You never knew what she would remember each morning that she woke. Some days she would know the date and she was aware of her surroundings‚ while other days (which weren’t so great)‚ she’d be back in time when her husband was alive and she’d call for him. Then she’d be
