“Ignorance is bliss.” In life it’s better to continue everyday without acknowledging the struggles faced everyday by others‚ yet as we stay ignorant we cannot help those who need it. Bliss does not create necessary changes within our world for those to live comfortably. When I visited my family in the Philippines‚ I grasped the struggle they face everyday.

Marathon of Words Writing is different among certain people. To me‚ writing is a marathon‚ slow and painful. I want to procrastinate the start of the race‚ but race towards the finish to get it over with. As I race towards the finish line I struggle‚ get distracted‚ and want to quit‚ but I know finishing the race is not only a relief but a sense of accomplishment.

A Hollywood Ending His backpack over his shoulder‚ my brother grips the paper tightly in his hand. While his feet shuffle across the hallway towards his room‚ a deep-rooted yell from the kitchen follows. Proceeding in reverse‚ he reaches our parents with curious eyes spotting his report card.

Of course it wasn’t very good at the time but it kept me occupied and brought me joy. Even when we got assignments‚ instead of doing

He began to take me hunting with him when I was just five years old. At that time I could not do much other than to sit and enjoy the view. Tagging along on his hunting excursions
