My Thoughts On My Life
I closed my eyes and pondered my next move. Was I in a dream or what? After two hours, my eyes shot open. I woke up realizing that I fell asleep. I
was breathing short, heavy breaths. I looked around the room with wide eyes. I might have fell asleep while thinking about the problem I had
with my mom a while ago. I couldn 't believe of what was happening between me and my mom. Tears slid right down my cheeks from my warm,
butterscotch eyes, followed by another one, and another one, until soon, a steady stream of salty tears flowed it 's way down my pale cheek,
releasing the sadness and sorrow that has been held inside of me for all this time but still I did not make a sound, and just thought to myself. I
couldn't take this anymore. I was being pushed, I sat up gasping. I was thinking on how I was going to resolve my conflict with my mom. I didn't
know what to do. I felt like my heart had been ripped out. There was an aura of grey around me. It was a mist that wouldn 't rise. A state of
depression that I couldn 't see myself through because of remembering that my mom kept telling me about "invisible strength", and how I should do
better in all the chess tournaments and pushing me to be the champion. My mom used me to show off, and that wasn 't what other moms did. I felt a
terrible weight on her shoulders. It was as if a giant boulder was laid on me and the fact that I couldn 't straighten up or catch my breath entirely. There
were butterflies in my stomach, fluttering madly

Essay On Life Of My Life
Topic (Biographical Essay): We are interested in learning more about you and the context in which you have grown up, formed your aspirations,
and accomplished your academic successes. Please describe the factors and challenges that have most shaped your personal life and aspirations.
How have these factors helped you to grow? I was born and raised in South Florida around Fort. Lauderdale, one of the state's largest cities, to very
religious parents. My parents founded and pastored a Christian church before and after I was born, so much of their finances were put into and
centered around it. My dad had a degree in Theology and my mom in communications but she soon left it for nursing as an LPN. There were many
complications with my mother's womb and she always told me the story of how every doctor she went to said she would never be able to have a
child. After starting the process for a hysterectomy (womb removal) however, they noticed a speck (me!) and ended the operation. My mom was
elated to hear the news as she always wanted to bear a child and referred to me as her little "miracle." The first 10 years of my life were relatively
nonchalant but had interesting aspects in its own right. I lived with my half–brother (from my father's side), my sister, and parents. When I was young
we moved into a pleasant community in a city called Coconut Creek. During my first few years of elementary school, my Mom and teachers noticed
that there was something a little "off" about me. My

Essay about My Life
My Life
I was born in San Jose, Costa Rica, and moved to California when I was very young. Before I moved to California my dad traveled back and forth for 2
or 3 yrs from California and back to Costa Rica. He spent most of his time working in the Fresno area, in the cities of Tulare, and Visalia. He says he
spent his time working in any available job including some farm labor jobs and went back to Costa Rica to spend time with us. After the second time
he left Costa Rica to come and work he did not go back. At that time, amnesty was given to immigrants in California, and he moved up north to the
Bay area to find a steady job. That is when he saved enough money for my mother, my two siblings, and I to join him in California.

I was in ESL programs until I entered junior high school. Learning the language, and trying to keep up with the class work was a challenge for me.
Having friends who spoke my language, and the English language as well was an advantage I had. Having that extra help and support really made my
school experience challenging, but exciting as well.
Remembering the support I received from those friends creates a need in me to do the same for other people. I don't only believe that the support that I
can give to migrant students as a Mini–Corps student will help them in succeeding in school, but I believe that an appreciation for school can be
gained as well, and hopefully bring insight for continuing their studies beyond high school. As I improved in my English I also grew an interest in
writing. I enjoyed my English classes, along with my math classes too. My interest grew and grew, and I joined summer girl programs. After
participating two year, I became a mentor to those new peers coming into the program. I worked with teachers in Science, and in Math classes. I also
participated in the volleyball activities, and group activities. This is when I realized I wanted to work with youth my whole life. My interest in
English, and my interest in being a role model to youth made me decide to become an English teacher, especially working with students whose first
language is not English.
Now, I am a college student. I first went to UC Santa Barbara, where I dealt with more

My Life Is My Message Essay
"My life is my message." –Mahatma Gandhi
No matter what nationality, age, gender, or status in society you have. We only have one thing in common, and that is "Life". A gift everyone
possesses. This quotation speaks about, your life describes what you are and who you are. Words don't describe anyone, but it is their deeds that
define them. As another saying goes, action speaks louder than voice. Don't tell anyone who you are, don't ask for respect, and don't beg for them to love
you. Let your life be a description for who you really are, show them that you deserve to be respected, and most of all, make people fall in love with
you without insisting it. But most of all, make your life so meaningful to be able to become an inspiration to other and become a model for everyone.

Our face may shine, but our heart will glow brighter. Our attitude is more remarkable than our appearance. Same thing in knowing people, never do

How disappointing right? "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." –Gandalf (Lord of the Rings) Time is a precious gift,
it can never be turned back. Once it is gone, it will forever be. A chance may come to you once or a opportunity may knock to you very rarely. Time

continuously get along with it, but once you decided to stop, it will surely be a regret. Cherish every moment, grab every chance and use time very
wisely. "For God so loved the world,

My Views On My Life Essay
During the course of my life I have had many encounters with people from different walks of life than my own, this comes from me moving
between different homes due to the joint custody my parents shared over me. Due to the constant change of the surrounding environment I was
always in constant flux of having to reacquaint myself with those around me, this led to it being easier for me to accept those that had differing
personalities and views from me because I was looking for a type of comradery, however in recent years while I'm not that quick to seek out
comradery in such a fashion it doesn't mean that I've become any less accepting of those who have differing views in fact I appreciate it when
others have differing views from me for that gives a chance to learn and become more personally invested in another person since it requires
learning more about them to get a better understanding of them. When it comes to being nonjudgmental personally I have a policy about being
judgmental that was instilled in me from the moment I was born which was further enforced from the constant bullying and teasing I received for
my size and odd nature during my youth. My mother used to tell me not to judge anyone for I know not of their home life or what they may be
going through at any point and time so I made that a rule to live by. Another example I have of being nonjudgmental was over the summer when I

Essay On My Life Experience
On the other hand the first statement I choose that exemplifies my life experience is "I feel attracted and drawn or called to a spiritual journey"
(Atchley, 2009, p. 64). There may be a stage in an individual's life where they can be unfulfilled with the direction of their personal trajectory. I
genuinely believe that the contemporary main–stream society we reside in places too much emphasis upon the pursuit/accumulation of material
possessions, endeavoring to maintain a youthful appearance, the acceptance of self–indulgence and completely removing God from our daily lives. I
perceive that without engaging in God's will and by assisting one another an individual can attain meaning and purpose in their life. In addition by
aiding other people who may need assistance an individual is not primarily contemplating upon their problems but instead placing the cares and
concerns of others before their own. The class literature articulated that: "something happens to create an opening, an invitation that may come in
many forms: an experience that suggests we are not who were though we were, feeling homesick for a place we don't recall being before or an
experience of an alternative universe in our consciousness" (Atchley, 2009, p. 64). Therefore people that have converted to Christianity may perceive
that this physical plane is not their long–term residence and that it is a temporary destination and our permanent home is residing with God in heaven
for all eternity. I believe

Family Experience Born in December of 1977, I was an early Christmas present to a young couple. My parents chose to adopt because they were
told that they could not have children. I was adopted as an infant and my parents were able to take custody of me almost immediately after birth. I
was actually the second child that my parents adopted. I have an older sister that was adopted as well. My mother always wanted a large family and she
got her wish. My mother went on to give birth to two more children despite the earlier information from her doctors that stated she could not have
children. Since I can remember, my parents have told me that I was an adopted child. My baby book has photographs of me in the arms of my mother

Now that I am a husband and a father it is a goal of mine to ensure I keep my work and family life balanced. I strive to focus on the quality of time I
spend with my family when I am not able to get the quantity that I wish. I have a challenging career that requires a significant amount of my time
and going back to school definitely makes it more challenging. I know that investing my time and energy in my education will allow me to spend
more time with my family in the end and enable me to become a better provider. Educational Experience I was raised in a private Christian school as a
child. I attended this school until I was in the sixth grade. In the sixth grade, my parents transitioned me to the public school system. I believe the
lessons and faith I learned in the private school system have helped me become a better person. When I was younger, I took a great interest in school
and did well. After transitioning to the public school system, I lost interest and my grades began to decline. School was never a priority for me and
I put very little effort into studying or getting good grades. I have always seemed to retain information rather easily and did well enough on tests to
pass classes despite not turning in many assignments. It seemed I always did just enough to pass. In fact, my GPA was just enough for me to
graduate. As I got older, I realized the value of education and had flashbacks of all the educators of my past that said, "One

Making An Impact On My Life Essay
Making an Impact Whether or not a person admits it, everyone on the planet has the desire to be remembered. They want to leave an impression on
the people around them and leave those people with fond memories of who they were and what they did. For me, the idea of making an impact on
someone's life was my ultimate goal. However, it took me a while to discover how exactly that goal would be achieved. Looking back on my
sophomore and junior years of high school, I had a very difference idea of how my life was going to turn out. I worked three days a week on my
school's radio station, WBMT, and played guitar during my free time. I was going to major in business and minor in communications and hopefully
pursue some career in music production and management. From middle school until late high school, that was the way I was going to affect
people, through music. While I had worked as a camp counselor, and had experience working with children, it just wasn't a path that I thought I
could turn into a career. As I grew up and had new experiences, I began to reevaluate my plans for myself. My junior year, I began to consider other
options for my future. In high school I loved working with others and giving back, and I was very involved with multiple organizations that benefitted
the community. I worked as a student council representative, a peer leader for a group of freshman, and a member of the Tri–town council, an
organization of volunteers that worked for the community.

Robbie because he was one of those kids that had that natural athletic ability. Robbie could run faster and throw better, do everything better when
it came to sports, but the real reason I was mad at Robbie most of my childhood life was because every time something went wrong, I always got

My sister and I have always dreamt of backpacking through Europe. I would like to share that experience with her. So that someday when we are old

Eiffel Tower. I want to travel. I've been to many places, including Australia, Russia, and Costa Rica, but there are still many places that I would like

busy anchorage airport was full of boxes of vacuum sealed fish and people carrying fishing rods. I leaned over and whispered to my dad "Hey look at
that lamiglas G1200, that's a $340 rod!" I was very overwhelmed and excited throughout the whole airport, but my sister didn't seem amused. She
wasn't the biggest fan of any travel or airplanes, specifically. She liked to draw, and draw, and maybe draw some more. Oh and did I mention she liked

In another short story we read, everyone was forced to be the same and people were punished for showing their uniqueness, Ayn Rand said in the

these stories. Sometimes I ask myself who I am and what makes me, me. I mostly think it's my personality that makes me so unique from others ,
or the way I choose to dress and talk. Maybe it's all of these thing put together to make up who I am, but I am so much more than just my choice of

My Life Experience And My Outlook Essay
At this point in my life, as a person retiring out of an industry, and going back to school for a second career, my outlook is certainly different than it
was when I was in college 23 years ago. I think that is primarily from life experiences, and having particular life experiences along my journey. I loved
the philosophy class as it seemed to help me answer some of those questions that were lingering in the back of my head for years. And if it did not
answer the questions, it certainly gave me the tools to dig deeper into my own thoughts, and ideas, and challenge them. I start off with what philosophy
called metaphysics, the study of existence. Growing up in a fundamental religion I always had questions about our beginning, or arche', as a human
race. I was taught the preverbal Adam and Eve idea, but that brought about so many other questions. Who was before them? What if there was an
alternative? Can we trust the historical data in the Bible? Where is God? Why is God "above us"? How do we know? All of these questions I had put
away, thinking I must have been the only one that must think this way. Don't misunderstand me there are elements of my religion that I cherish and it
will provide me the ethical structure for my being. I understand that if society understood in the arche' of our religion, we would find that we have
more similarities than differences. During the time we studied Plato, and his ideal forms, I saw how not only my

My Views On My Life
Everyone has their own unique beliefs and motives that push them through their lives. I have many different beliefs instilled in me that mold my day
to day life. These beliefs have been formed either by learning from my parents, or by personal experiences. One major conviction of mine is the pursuit
of happiness. There are many ways to strive for happiness, and all people are unique in the fact that no one shares the same goals. My happiness
comes from a core of beliefs. Religion is an extremely important part of my life, and I can thank my mother and father for that. Another belief of
mine is that hard work pays off; in many situations I have been shown that a good work ethic goes a long way in being successful. I also believe in
being an optimist throughout life's trials and tribulations. Many things can upset me in day to day experiences; however, I believe it to be crucial to
obtain a joyous attitude. These beliefs have become priorities to me and carry me through my life, and help me to succeed.
To begin with, religion is one aspect of my life that I could not be happy without. My brothers and I have formed this conviction in the Lord from
being taught the right way. My father is the minister at Sims Hill Christian Church and he has always taken us to every church service held as long as
we were able. It has always been a priority in the Jones' household to read the Bible and to present ourselves in the correct manner. Without God, the

Yes. I always thought that that the baby was mine. Just as I entered the York Central Hospital, now known as Mackenzie Health, I catch my dad

My Interest In My Life
Over the course of my life, there has been a diverse multitude of work areas that have sparked my interest. Between military based careers to more
technical and business related workplaces, it's rather difficult to narrow a broad interest. College is a go to of course for a degree, with it being public
relations, it would make sense that I may be interested in a career involving this. I still am troubled regarding exactly what I might be interested in
regarding the future.
Growing up I was raised in a military family, I was exposed to quite a bit of things, subjective and educational. Throughout that time, my parents were
deployed at certain points and this taught me how to better take care of myself mentally and physically. While I never had permanent friends, it never
stopped me from forming new relationships with new people all the time. Living in areas from throughout the world was a nice perk that I have been
able to experience, witnessing different culture and the way things are just kept completely original in every single place i've visited and lived.
At times, there were hardships that had lasting effects on myself and my family, but I view them as learning experiences, I feel like I may have

Reflective Essay On My Life
God's calling on my life was unclear before I came to Evangel, I said many prayers asking God what his plan was for my life. While I still don't
know the whole plan he has slowly confirmed and revealed more and more of it throughout the time I have been attending here. Along with my
"calling" God has revealed what it means to be a Christian and he has done that through people, sermons, and through the books I have read in Essential
Christianity. While I may not know all of the answers, I know God will reveal more of it when the timing is right. Throughout my life I have always
been known as the "sensitive" one. People labeled me that and sometimes it would be a positive but most of the time it was not. I always saw it as a
negative quality and I never understood why God made me this way. However, as this semester has progressed I see being "sensitive" in a different
way now. One of my strength is empathy, this means that I am able to sense other people'sfeelings by imagining myself in the same situation. While
the description sounds like a positive, the way this comes across in my life has not always come across in a positive light. When people tell me
stories, positive or negative, I can feel my heart rejoicing or breaking with them. This is when I would be accused of being "too sensitive" because I
would get upset when I see these heart breaking stories or I saw those commercials that involved neglected animals or abused children. However, since

My Thoughts On My Life

  • 1. My Thoughts On My Life I closed my eyes and pondered my next move. Was I in a dream or what? After two hours, my eyes shot open. I woke up realizing that I fell asleep. I was breathing short, heavy breaths. I looked around the room with wide eyes. I might have fell asleep while thinking about the problem I had with my mom a while ago. I couldn 't believe of what was happening between me and my mom. Tears slid right down my cheeks from my warm, butterscotch eyes, followed by another one, and another one, until soon, a steady stream of salty tears flowed it 's way down my pale cheek, releasing the sadness and sorrow that has been held inside of me for all this time but still I did not make a sound, and just thought to myself. I couldn't take this anymore. I was being pushed, I sat up gasping. I was thinking on how I was going to resolve my conflict with my mom. I didn't know what to do. I felt like my heart had been ripped out. There was an aura of grey around me. It was a mist that wouldn 't rise. A state of depression that I couldn 't see myself through because of remembering that my mom kept telling me about "invisible strength", and how I should do better in all the chess tournaments and pushing me to be the champion. My mom used me to show off, and that wasn 't what other moms did. I felt a terrible weight on her shoulders. It was as if a giant boulder was laid on me and the fact that I couldn 't straighten up or catch my breath entirely. There were butterflies in my stomach, fluttering madly Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Essay On Life Of My Life Topic (Biographical Essay): We are interested in learning more about you and the context in which you have grown up, formed your aspirations, and accomplished your academic successes. Please describe the factors and challenges that have most shaped your personal life and aspirations. How have these factors helped you to grow? I was born and raised in South Florida around Fort. Lauderdale, one of the state's largest cities, to very religious parents. My parents founded and pastored a Christian church before and after I was born, so much of their finances were put into and centered around it. My dad had a degree in Theology and my mom in communications but she soon left it for nursing as an LPN. There were many complications with my mother's womb and she always told me the story of how every doctor she went to said she would never be able to have a child. After starting the process for a hysterectomy (womb removal) however, they noticed a speck (me!) and ended the operation. My mom was elated to hear the news as she always wanted to bear a child and referred to me as her little "miracle." The first 10 years of my life were relatively nonchalant but had interesting aspects in its own right. I lived with my half–brother (from my father's side), my sister, and parents. When I was young we moved into a pleasant community in a city called Coconut Creek. During my first few years of elementary school, my Mom and teachers noticed that there was something a little "off" about me. My Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Essay about My Life My Life I was born in San Jose, Costa Rica, and moved to California when I was very young. Before I moved to California my dad traveled back and forth for 2 or 3 yrs from California and back to Costa Rica. He spent most of his time working in the Fresno area, in the cities of Tulare, and Visalia. He says he spent his time working in any available job including some farm labor jobs and went back to Costa Rica to spend time with us. After the second time he left Costa Rica to come and work he did not go back. At that time, amnesty was given to immigrants in California, and he moved up north to the Bay area to find a steady job. That is when he saved enough money for my mother, my two siblings, and I to join him in California. My first...show more content... I was in ESL programs until I entered junior high school. Learning the language, and trying to keep up with the class work was a challenge for me. Having friends who spoke my language, and the English language as well was an advantage I had. Having that extra help and support really made my school experience challenging, but exciting as well. Remembering the support I received from those friends creates a need in me to do the same for other people. I don't only believe that the support that I can give to migrant students as a Mini–Corps student will help them in succeeding in school, but I believe that an appreciation for school can be gained as well, and hopefully bring insight for continuing their studies beyond high school. As I improved in my English I also grew an interest in writing. I enjoyed my English classes, along with my math classes too. My interest grew and grew, and I joined summer girl programs. After participating two year, I became a mentor to those new peers coming into the program. I worked with teachers in Science, and in Math classes. I also participated in the volleyball activities, and group activities. This is when I realized I wanted to work with youth my whole life. My interest in English, and my interest in being a role model to youth made me decide to become an English teacher, especially working with students whose first language is not English. Now, I am a college student. I first went to UC Santa Barbara, where I dealt with more Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. My Life Is My Message Essay "My life is my message." –Mahatma Gandhi No matter what nationality, age, gender, or status in society you have. We only have one thing in common, and that is "Life". A gift everyone possesses. This quotation speaks about, your life describes what you are and who you are. Words don't describe anyone, but it is their deeds that define them. As another saying goes, action speaks louder than voice. Don't tell anyone who you are, don't ask for respect, and don't beg for them to love you. Let your life be a description for who you really are, show them that you deserve to be respected, and most of all, make people fall in love with you without insisting it. But most of all, make your life so meaningful to be able to become an inspiration to other and become a model for everyone. You only live once, don't waste it, but instead, be a statement to be remembered and be a...show more content... Our face may shine, but our heart will glow brighter. Our attitude is more remarkable than our appearance. Same thing in knowing people, never do judge a person from their looks. What do you feel if you receive a beautiful present, and as you open it, you found rotten wastes and animal corpse. How disappointing right? "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." –Gandalf (Lord of the Rings) Time is a precious gift, it can never be turned back. Once it is gone, it will forever be. A chance may come to you once or a opportunity may knock to you very rarely. Time tic–tacs continuously and constantly. Life is full of decision to make. Spending time is the most important decision we will ever make. It will either be affected you positively or it may just pass through as you wasted a biggest chance in your life. Always remember that time runs fast, you may continuously get along with it, but once you decided to stop, it will surely be a regret. Cherish every moment, grab every chance and use time very wisely. "For God so loved the world, Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 5. My Views On My Life Essay During the course of my life I have had many encounters with people from different walks of life than my own, this comes from me moving between different homes due to the joint custody my parents shared over me. Due to the constant change of the surrounding environment I was always in constant flux of having to reacquaint myself with those around me, this led to it being easier for me to accept those that had differing personalities and views from me because I was looking for a type of comradery, however in recent years while I'm not that quick to seek out comradery in such a fashion it doesn't mean that I've become any less accepting of those who have differing views in fact I appreciate it when others have differing views from me for that gives a chance to learn and become more personally invested in another person since it requires learning more about them to get a better understanding of them. When it comes to being nonjudgmental personally I have a policy about being judgmental that was instilled in me from the moment I was born which was further enforced from the constant bullying and teasing I received for my size and odd nature during my youth. My mother used to tell me not to judge anyone for I know not of their home life or what they may be going through at any point and time so I made that a rule to live by. Another example I have of being nonjudgmental was over the summer when I worked as a day camp counselor at the YMCA I worked with a lot of children and most Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. Essay On My Life Experience On the other hand the first statement I choose that exemplifies my life experience is "I feel attracted and drawn or called to a spiritual journey" (Atchley, 2009, p. 64). There may be a stage in an individual's life where they can be unfulfilled with the direction of their personal trajectory. I genuinely believe that the contemporary main–stream society we reside in places too much emphasis upon the pursuit/accumulation of material possessions, endeavoring to maintain a youthful appearance, the acceptance of self–indulgence and completely removing God from our daily lives. I perceive that without engaging in God's will and by assisting one another an individual can attain meaning and purpose in their life. In addition by aiding other people who may need assistance an individual is not primarily contemplating upon their problems but instead placing the cares and concerns of others before their own. The class literature articulated that: "something happens to create an opening, an invitation that may come in many forms: an experience that suggests we are not who were though we were, feeling homesick for a place we don't recall being before or an experience of an alternative universe in our consciousness" (Atchley, 2009, p. 64). Therefore people that have converted to Christianity may perceive that this physical plane is not their long–term residence and that it is a temporary destination and our permanent home is residing with God in heaven for all eternity.

  • 7. My Life Essay example Family Experience Born in December of 1977, I was an early Christmas present to a young couple. My parents chose to adopt because they were told that they could not have children. I was adopted as an infant and my parents were able to take custody of me almost immediately after birth. I was actually the second child that my parents adopted. I have an older sister that was adopted as well. My mother always wanted a large family and she got her wish. My mother went on to give birth to two more children despite the earlier information from her doctors that stated she could not have children. Since I can remember, my parents have told me that I was an adopted child. My baby book has photographs of me in the arms of my mother and...show more content... Now that I am a husband and a father it is a goal of mine to ensure I keep my work and family life balanced. I strive to focus on the quality of time I spend with my family when I am not able to get the quantity that I wish. I have a challenging career that requires a significant amount of my time and going back to school definitely makes it more challenging. I know that investing my time and energy in my education will allow me to spend more time with my family in the end and enable me to become a better provider. Educational Experience I was raised in a private Christian school as a child. I attended this school until I was in the sixth grade. In the sixth grade, my parents transitioned me to the public school system. I believe the lessons and faith I learned in the private school system have helped me become a better person. When I was younger, I took a great interest in school and did well. After transitioning to the public school system, I lost interest and my grades began to decline. School was never a priority for me and I put very little effort into studying or getting good grades. I have always seemed to retain information rather easily and did well enough on tests to pass classes despite not turning in many assignments. It seemed I always did just enough to pass. In fact, my GPA was just enough for me to graduate. As I got older, I realized the value of education and had flashbacks of all the educators of my past that said, "One Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. Making An Impact On My Life Essay Making an Impact Whether or not a person admits it, everyone on the planet has the desire to be remembered. They want to leave an impression on the people around them and leave those people with fond memories of who they were and what they did. For me, the idea of making an impact on someone's life was my ultimate goal. However, it took me a while to discover how exactly that goal would be achieved. Looking back on my sophomore and junior years of high school, I had a very difference idea of how my life was going to turn out. I worked three days a week on my school's radio station, WBMT, and played guitar during my free time. I was going to major in business and minor in communications and hopefully pursue some career in music production and management. From middle school until late high school, that was the way I was going to affect people, through music. While I had worked as a camp counselor, and had experience working with children, it just wasn't a path that I thought I could turn into a career. As I grew up and had new experiences, I began to reevaluate my plans for myself. My junior year, I began to consider other options for my future. In high school I loved working with others and giving back, and I was very involved with multiple organizations that benefitted the community. I worked as a student council representative, a peer leader for a group of freshman, and a member of the Tri–town council, an organization of volunteers that worked for the community.

My Life My Journey Essay As a very small child I don't remember too much, but the things that I do remember were seen through a child's eyes that has made me the person that I am today and I will always have those memory's with me until my last breath on this earth. In this essay I intend to show how my childhood and adult life to this point has influenced my life, my journey. By utilizing the adult development theories from this class I also intend on showing how they relate to my Life experiences and where I am today as an Adult student. Its funny how as a child you look at things. As time passes, those same child memories become life experiences as an adult.

Robbie was taking down a C.B. antenna and it struck a high power line that ran into the local General Motors plant. Robbie was killed instantly. As Erickson's stated in his psychosocial development theory, "which refers to the development within the social environment in which a person lives, primarily focusing on relationships with other people" (Simanowitz & Pearce. 2003). This had brought back memories of how my relationship was when we were little. I was always kind of upset with Robbie because he was one of those kids that had that natural athletic ability. Robbie could run faster and throw better, do everything better when it came to sports, but the real reason I was mad at Robbie most of my childhood life was because every time something went wrong, I always got the blame and in trouble. Mom would say "You're older you should have known better" Yes she was right most of the time I did know better. I was the middle child and I was always the one that got into trouble even though Robbie might have done it first.

  • 10. Essay about My Life Road trips make for great writing, especially if you are driving alone. All you have is the road and your thoughts. Even the radio is turned off eventually, as silence takes precedent. This was my experience a few weeks ago, driving home from a pseudo–family reunion. My first thoughts were basic; what I had to do the following week, how great it had been to see all my friends, and how good Jordan had looked that weekend. Yet, as my drive progressed, my thoughts began to wander. I began thinking about my life; what I had already accomplished and what was still waiting for me. I realized that there are so many things that I want to do before I die. I quickly sorted through them in my mind and this is what I discovered. I want to...show more content... Just once, I would like to see the smile on a child's face who is receiving a Christmas gift for the first time. This would be an exceptionally humbling and rewarding opportunity. My sister and I have always dreamt of backpacking through Europe. I would like to share that experience with her. So that someday when we are old and forgetful, we can make inside jokes about the beautiful men we flirted with in Prague and smile at the memories of brownies in Amsterdam. I long to spend my honeymoon strolling down the Champs–Elysee in Paris, standing in the corridor of Notre Dame, and kissing my husband on the top of the Eiffel Tower. I want to travel. I've been to many places, including Australia, Russia, and Costa Rica, but there are still many places that I would like to visit. I want to stand in front of the Lincoln Memorial and feel pride for my country. I would like to walk on a glacier in Alaska. Someday I would enjoy the pleasure of walking through the tulips in the Netherlands and scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef. These are the places I've seen in my dreams. There are so many things I want to learn how to do. I want to learn how to take photos. Not just simple pictures, but those masterpieces that make people stand back and admire them. I want to learn how to sail; someday standing on the bow of a boat, staring at the horizon. Just me and the water. Someday I want to be able to play the great pieces of Mozart and Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 11. Descriptive Essay About My Life I walked to the car, and spotted a dead mouse on the porch "Looks like steve got another one" I said to my dad "He sure did." He replied as he took a closer look. The bone chilling Oregon morning had us shivering until the heat blasted on in my family's 2006 silver seqouia. We loaded up the car and suitcases filled the whole third row as I dozed off in the dark leather back seat. 30 minutes later I recieved an onslaught of pokes and prods from my older sister Chloe, informing me of our arrival at the airport. "Sam! Sam! We're Here!!" She said. "Yea whatever," I snapped back. My eleven year old self did not want to be awake at 2:30 in the morning getting on a flight to the land of the midnight sun, but I didn't have a choice on where my...show more content... My head hurt and I was confused. A stewardess rolled up and said something to my dad but I nodded off before my snack order could be taken. I awoke again this time with a thud, as we touched down on Alaskan soil. The local time was about 8 AM and the sun was shining like it was noon. The busy anchorage airport was full of boxes of vacuum sealed fish and people carrying fishing rods. I leaned over and whispered to my dad "Hey look at that lamiglas G1200, that's a $340 rod!" I was very overwhelmed and excited throughout the whole airport, but my sister didn't seem amused. She wasn't the biggest fan of any travel or airplanes, specifically. She liked to draw, and draw, and maybe draw some more. Oh and did I mention she liked to draw? So that's what her life consisted of while I was obsessed with fishing. She wouldn't have been awake by this time even back home, so she was quite tired. Smiles creeped onto our faces as we realized we were actually in Alaska, the 50th state, the last frontier! The wait for luggage to pop out onto the snake–like conveyor belt was like the night before christmas to me. The first bag came around, "WOW! Look at that!" I exclaimed whilst trying to go for a ride, only to recieve a "SAM GET OFF!!" from my mother. She isn't the type to yell or get mad but boy was she angry. The rest of the time in the aiport consisted of me throwing a minor fit and not talking to my Get more content on HelpWriting.net

Everyone has different aspects on what the true meaning of their life is, some may say that the true purpose is to work hard, by setting goals that you should achieve. Honestly, I feel as though this is most of the world's aspect on life, very seldom does anyone want to do things that makes them truly happy, they do things that they believe that would please society.

In another short story we read, everyone was forced to be the same and people were punished for showing their uniqueness, Ayn Rand said in the book Anthem , "Nobody was smarter than anybody else. Nobody was better looking than anybody else. Nobody was stronger or quicker than anybody else And everybody was really, really boring." everyone's life has a different meaning, if not then we would be just like the people in these stories. Sometimes I ask myself who I am and what makes me, me. I mostly think it's my personality that makes me so unique from others , or the way I choose to dress and talk. Maybe it's all of these thing put together to make up who I am, but I am so much more than just my choice of words and what I wear.I am vulnerable and strong, I'm liberated and goofy, and I'm not always right. I am a positive person, and I try not to judge people for the choices they choose to make in life. I try to uplift and encourage my friends to do the best they can. I treat people fairly, as how I'd like to be treated. I'm extremely awkward and shy around people I don't know. People that know me well would say that I'm funny and loyal. But I feel like some of this might change in the future when I am more matured than I am now. As I get older I will continue to surround myself with positive people.

  • 14. My Life Experience And My Outlook Essay At this point in my life, as a person retiring out of an industry, and going back to school for a second career, my outlook is certainly different than it was when I was in college 23 years ago. I think that is primarily from life experiences, and having particular life experiences along my journey. I loved the philosophy class as it seemed to help me answer some of those questions that were lingering in the back of my head for years. And if it did not answer the questions, it certainly gave me the tools to dig deeper into my own thoughts, and ideas, and challenge them. I start off with what philosophy called metaphysics, the study of existence. Growing up in a fundamental religion I always had questions about our beginning, or arche', as a human race. I was taught the preverbal Adam and Eve idea, but that brought about so many other questions. Who was before them? What if there was an alternative? Can we trust the historical data in the Bible? Where is God? Why is God "above us"? How do we know? All of these questions I had put away, thinking I must have been the only one that must think this way. Don't misunderstand me there are elements of my religion that I cherish and it will provide me the ethical structure for my being. I understand that if society understood in the arche' of our religion, we would find that we have more similarities than differences. During the time we studied Plato, and his ideal forms, I saw how not only my Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 15. My Views On My Life Everyone has their own unique beliefs and motives that push them through their lives. I have many different beliefs instilled in me that mold my day to day life. These beliefs have been formed either by learning from my parents, or by personal experiences. One major conviction of mine is the pursuit of happiness. There are many ways to strive for happiness, and all people are unique in the fact that no one shares the same goals. My happiness comes from a core of beliefs. Religion is an extremely important part of my life, and I can thank my mother and father for that. Another belief of mine is that hard work pays off; in many situations I have been shown that a good work ethic goes a long way in being successful. I also believe in being an optimist throughout life's trials and tribulations. Many things can upset me in day to day experiences; however, I believe it to be crucial to obtain a joyous attitude. These beliefs have become priorities to me and carry me through my life, and help me to succeed. To begin with, religion is one aspect of my life that I could not be happy without. My brothers and I have formed this conviction in the Lord from being taught the right way. My father is the minister at Sims Hill Christian Church and he has always taken us to every church service held as long as we were able. It has always been a priority in the Jones' household to read the Bible and to present ourselves in the correct manner. Without God, the pursuit of happiness Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 16. The Most Important Day Of My Life Imagine spending the first three years of your life alone. No one to play with. No one to talk to. No one to have fun with. I was alone majority of the time because the only people I had, my parents, went to work. My daily life consisted of sleeping, eating, watching cartoons, and playing with toys, as my mom came from work and my dad went. This continuous cycle lasted until August 7th, 2002, the day my sister was born and the rest of my family moved to Canada. The day I gained the most excitement in the world. The most important day of my life. One would say that being kid, how can one be lonely? Well I never had anyone to play with because as mentioned before, my parents went to work. When my mom came home she would make me sleep...show more content... It was the month of August; thus, the weather was warm and hot. As I got into one of my dad's friend's car, the smile on my face was huge and my face was filled with euphoria. My mom was at the hospital already as was my dad, so I went with one of his friends. As the car drove, the fresh early morning summer breeze pushed against my face. I remember telling my dad's friend how excited I was because I was going to 'own' a baby. Yes. I always thought that that the baby was mine. Just as I entered the York Central Hospital, now known as Mackenzie Health, I catch my dad standing there; I run into his arms and hug him. My excitement is over the roof, so I jump off and drag him to take me to the room. As we started making our way to the room, I spotted a gift shop and stopped my dad. We walked in and I picked up this small monkey plushy and told my dad "I want to give this to the baby." My dad bought it and we continued making our way up the stairs. Finally, the moment had come. As we reached the room where my mom and new born sister were, I ungripped my dad's hand and ran inside; delighted and thrilled to meet her. My mom was sleeping and beside her was a little box in which my beautiful baby sister was. Being strictly told by my dad to not make any noise, I sat beside him and continued to stare at her. She was the so chubby at the time and I just wanted to squeeze her cheeks. My patience was soon starting to wear off and my eagerness to Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 17. My Interest In My Life Over the course of my life, there has been a diverse multitude of work areas that have sparked my interest. Between military based careers to more technical and business related workplaces, it's rather difficult to narrow a broad interest. College is a go to of course for a degree, with it being public relations, it would make sense that I may be interested in a career involving this. I still am troubled regarding exactly what I might be interested in regarding the future. Growing up I was raised in a military family, I was exposed to quite a bit of things, subjective and educational. Throughout that time, my parents were deployed at certain points and this taught me how to better take care of myself mentally and physically. While I never had permanent friends, it never stopped me from forming new relationships with new people all the time. Living in areas from throughout the world was a nice perk that I have been able to experience, witnessing different culture and the way things are just kept completely original in every single place i've visited and lived. At times, there were hardships that had lasting effects on myself and my family, but I view them as learning experiences, I feel like I may have learned a bit more about the world and people in general than the average person who might be raised in the same spot all their life. I feel like I may have become quite a bit more accepting of others and for that reason exactly, I have become much more interested in a career Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 18. This Is My Life Essay It is indeed true that the finer things in life are free, but what most people fall short to notice is that the greater things in life, however, come with an enormous amount of sacrifice, hardship, persistence, hard work, and determination. Everybody takes advantage of the finer things, after all, they are free and easy! Not everyone, however, takes advantage the greatest things life has to offer. I do not blame them, in all simplicity, It is extremely easy to be indolent. Why put elbow grease in one, when the other is easy? I will tell you why. This is a story of hard work, sacrifice, devastation, confidence, hopelessness, perseverance, and determination. My name is Maria de Los Angeles Delaz, and this is my story. I was a regular...show more content... To the fifteen year old Maria; life could not be better. October thirtieth two thousand and seven at eight thirty at night, my Father barged into our home, walked into his room, grabbed a few clothing items and stormed out into the night. An hour later he returned, gave me a kiss on the forehead, told me to tell my sister and brother he loved them very much and left. It is tremendously difficult for me to describe what I felt. It was as if my heart broke in half, my stomach was being punched by a two thousand pound gorilla, and my breath...well my breath was missing in action. To this day, I still believe the pain I felt that night, is greater than the pain in giving natural birth. I recall hurling myself onto my bed and bawling until my mother came home, with my brother and sister in tow. It was the hardest, most devastating time I have ever gone through. A couple of weeks after my Mother told us that my Father and her determined to finalize the divorce, Mom told us that she had decided to share her life with Stacie, a close friend of hers. I am a very opened minded person, but the change from seeing my Mother hug my Father, to seeing her hug a woman, was something I needed more time to adjust to. Stacie was and still is astounding with my family and I. Stacie helped us fill the void the divorce had caused inside our hearts with love and new activities the family began to Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 19. Reflective Essay On My Life God's calling on my life was unclear before I came to Evangel, I said many prayers asking God what his plan was for my life. While I still don't know the whole plan he has slowly confirmed and revealed more and more of it throughout the time I have been attending here. Along with my "calling" God has revealed what it means to be a Christian and he has done that through people, sermons, and through the books I have read in Essential Christianity. While I may not know all of the answers, I know God will reveal more of it when the timing is right. Throughout my life I have always been known as the "sensitive" one. People labeled me that and sometimes it would be a positive but most of the time it was not. I always saw it as a negative quality and I never understood why God made me this way. However, as this semester has progressed I see being "sensitive" in a different way now. One of my strength is empathy, this means that I am able to sense other people'sfeelings by imagining myself in the same situation. While the description sounds like a positive, the way this comes across in my life has not always come across in a positive light. When people tell me stories, positive or negative, I can feel my heart rejoicing or breaking with them. This is when I would be accused of being "too sensitive" because I would get upset when I see these heart breaking stories or I saw those commercials that involved neglected animals or abused children. However, since the day in class that we Get more content on HelpWriting.net
