Family and Respectful Young Man
Essay 15.2 – What do you think is the best part of being a grandparent? Why?
15.2
I myself, am not a grandparent so I can not say I know from experience the best parts of being a grandmother. I know my mother is always saying if I think I love my son, wait until he has children. It Is like having a child other than you only have to have them when they are in a good mood or when you want to have them. Atleast, that’s what I hear. The best part would probably be having someone you love so much yet they arent your full responsibility. You helped create them yet, you do not have to go through the troubles of having them or fully providing them. And the main thing is, when they start crying and need changing, you can hand them right back to their parents.

Essay 16.2 – What do you want to be most remembered for after you die?
16.2
My friend Joseph died a year ago in a week, and he was not forgotten. He lives on through the changes he helped made, and good person he was. He helped change lives along with showing what a respectful young man was. When I die I only hope I can have the response that he did. Hopefully, when I die I am remembered for being a fantastic mother, friend, and family member. All I ask for is to be remembered as a good person who helped others. But I know, in order to be remembered as that person, I have to be that person while I can. And I will try my best, and do as much as I can not taking life for granted.

    The journal entry that I chose to write about is based on the article “Weighing the Grandma Factor; In Some Societies, It's a Matter of Life and Death” written by Natalie Angier. I chose this journal entry in particular because it brought memories that I enjoyed to the forefront that I haven’t thought about in a while. This article also discussed the impact grandmothers have and unique role they play in our lives, from birth to the transition off of breast milk and beyond. Through reading this article I gained some new insight into myself and the impact that my own Grandmother had on me. Also, through keeping a journal and reflecting on these readings provided in my English class I have discovered and unveiled distant memories once locked away…

    If you knew you were to die tomorrow, what would be the chance you wished you had taken? Or the moments you let slip away? Would you be happy? Would you be sad? Or would you die at peace knowing that you lived life to the fullest potential? The biggest regret that people have on their deathbed is that they lived the life expected of them instead of a life true to themselves. We need to fulfill the journey this life grants us without being close to the end of life and regretting not doing the things that we should’ve or could’ve done.…

    If I was to die today, what will my children have to say about me? Would my family cry because of the pain of losing me today? Perhaps for the pain of not having me tomorrow? Maybe it would be both, only if I was so lucky to have acted good with them, continuously. How long will it take my wife to remarry? Will that other person be better or just different? On and on through different tangents, the main point is this: I cannot let tomorrow be the starting point of my actions. Any action, word or expression, need to be done today while I am still alive and able to tell my family that I love them, that I care for them, and that they will be in my heart and soul, throughout time and…
