Personal Narrative: Science Or Almost-Winter-Doldrums

I've been feeling lost lately. I used to do a tarot card reading every morning. I haven't wanted to lately. In fact, I haven't cared to touch my cards AT ALL. I keep chalking it up to the fact that work is stressful and beating the life out of me. But I don't know. Maybe it's the blahs. Or Almost-Winter-Doldrums. Could also be that I'm so freaking exhausted that I keep hitting snooze until it's practically time to be out the door. It's difficult to reach a meditative state in the morning when you're shooting out the door like a rocket. Might also simply be a lack

    He quoted a man by the name of Hugh Ross, an astrophysicist who founded a religious ministry that “seeks to show that science supports Christian scripture.” Ross made an agreeable point in stating that “It’s just planet Earth that has spiritual beings in need of redemption. … That doesn’t rule out dolphins or grass or bacteria on another planet. … It’s not Jesus Christ dying on 1,000 planets.” These quotes point to a different spectrum of Christianity, one where the belief system is not quite as biased or critical as the…

    The feel of 80 degree temperature, the sound of splashing water, and a super long car ride? Everything but the car ride was awesome! On my spring break this year we took a very long and boring car trip down to Arizona. It was a 18+ hour car trip just going there! I mostly slept and read the way there. First, we visited Arizona state and Arizona University. Then, we stayed at my Grandma and Grandpa’s house. But, what I mostly liked about my spring break was in Arizona there was 80-90 degree temperatures!…

    There has been many cases in which I have helped an outsider feel welcome. One time in particular is when I played tag with this little boy at church since he was new and no one else played with him. Originally, I was outside eating candy and talking to my friends at church. I noticed that this little boy was standing all alone watching all the other little kids play without him. I thought that maybe he was upset so I went over to him and asked if he wanted the rest of my gummy worms. He seemed nervous at first, but eventually he started talking to me. I learned that he was five years old and he was visiting his grandparents for the weekend. His older brother was outside playing basketball with some of the other older boys at the church, and…

    Two days. Two days was how long the break between training for track, and training for cross country started. As a team our goal was to have the top 12 guys run 500 miles each, which at the time seemed to be an unreasonable goal. However Coach Hampton was confident that this was a reachable goal and encouraged not only the top 12 guys, but the the JV guys as well, to join in and train with the top 12.This was the summer of 2016, I had just had track state and made it to finals for the 4x8 only to get my relay disqualified because I cut into the inside lanes of the track before the cut off line. This had been our goal all season, make it to state, get to finals, and see what happens. Causing my relay to get disqualified is one my worst moments…

    I remember, when I was younger, that I wasn't fond with the idea of writing. I remember after writing out paragraphs upon paragraphs my hands always hurting and my brain exhausted from all the mental thinking and processing of writing. However, I would have this feeling; this sensation when I would write with thought, with passion and I carved it. However, it was hard to find a place that was felt the same kind of passion that I felt for writing and could help hone my writing. Then, I found out about BISFA that could help me with my writing, but my English teacher, who was supportive in my decision, told me a question all writers should always themselves, Why do you write? I figured that I would have an answer, but it I didn't. However, it…

    At the age of 12, I was scrolling through the channel guide looking for something to watch like most bored kids do at that age, when I finally gave up. I ended up randomly turning to channel 62 where they were showing an episode of Storm Chasers. In my opinion, it was a show about crazy people risking their lives in pursuit of their passions. As I continued watching it, I developed a sudden interest in how nature could create something so beautiful yet hazardous.…

    I walked on a thin layer of ice in high school; every time someone judged me, I could hear the ice slowly cracking under my feet. My life was in a fragile and brittle state during my junior year. I didn’t have the support of my parents, nor of my closest friends at this stage of my life. My own parents, teachers, and classmates had lost faith in me; to them it seemed as if I had ruined my life and that I would no longer succeed. On the contrary, I was determined to be successful because now I had someone special looking up at me as their role model.…

    I have had to opportunity to engage in several group and individual sessions with Residents over the last several weeks. The individual sessions that I have had with my resident has thus far relied heavily on visiting, getting to know one another, and building trust; however, we have done a variety of activities along side that as well. The first session was simply an introductory session where I shared about myself, and sought to find out about her. The next session, we interacted with cards for a few minutes, looked through sale ads, read the newspaper, shared memories of farm life, and visited. The following session my resident and I put together a puzzle, shared memories, and visited. The most recent session, my resident and I played Go…
