I believe in miracles. At a very young age I began to get an idea of what a miracle was. Dallin H. Oaks defines a miracle as “a beneficial event brought about through divine power that mortals do not understand and themselves cannot duplicate.” When I was six years old I had my first experience when a miracle took place in my life. I was in our small front yard taking golf lessons from my father in a small cul-de-sac. My father laid down the golf ball on the freshly cut grass. As he swung and hit

My Greatest Ambition‚ Lurie. Story written in 1st person in voice of young(?) narrator. Tone shows a wry humour – adult reflecting on youth seems more likely. Language is straightforward and relies on variety rather than image creating. Sentences vary in length and create a sense of conversation. Humour of opening sentence implies adult looking back with affection. Memory as narrative tool: memory is always unreliable. Narrator counters this unreliability by frequent corrections and apologies

Q. Do you believe that freedom of expression is fundamental for the successful working of a democracy? . I believe that the freedom of expression is one of the cornerstones of a liberal democracy. A democracy‚ in the well-known words of Abraham Lincoln is a way of government “of the people‚ for the people and by the people.” For this political system to be realized in daily life‚ the unhindered articulation of the will of the people is vital.

When Hope Gets Lost Imagine constantly being asked “Why can’t you just pull yourself together?” Being told “You have nothing to be depressed about‚ you have so much going for you!”‚ “But you don’t SEEM depressed‚ you were just laughing an hour ago!” For those struggling with many of life’s abundant obstacles‚ suicide seems like the ideal compromise for the self-destruction and agony to end. I believe that suicide is not the answer because I’ve overcome it myself. I’ve had to learn in the most difficult

I Believe in Camping I believe in camping. Just getting away from the real world for a few days‚ being with nature and loved ones. Being able to sit around the campfire roasting hot dogs and marshmallows and of course most important of all sharing stories. While I was growing up my parents and their friends loved going camping. By no means were we the type of people to drive hours into the deep forest and set up tents. Every family had their own RV and we would stay at an

I feel that one of my greatest strengths is not getting involved in other people’s cattiness and drama. I have always been one to listen when a friend needs someone to talk to and I always tried to be understanding‚ but I always hated seeing people others try to take sides in arguments. In my experience this is how a lot of people lose friends and how clicks are started. In high school I was able to be friends with all different kinds of people with no problem‚ whether they were jocks‚ preps‚ or
