Personal Narrative: The Caring Place
During this season of giving, help turn a child's frown upside down this Christmas. The Caring Place is now collecting new toys and gently used bikes for the children in our neighborhood. With the trend towards simplifying gift giving for our own children to what they want, what they need, something to read and something to wear this year, please consider buying a 5th gift for a child in need. Kids will be smiling all over Silverton, Kennedy Heights, Pleasant Ridge and Golf Manor!

    Learning from mistakes is a key part of life. I myself have had to learn from my mistakes. Over the summer I cut my foot outside. I spent the whole night in the worst hospital, then I got 18 stitches in the bottom of my foot. It also set back my ability to play football. My mistake was going outside without shoes, now I wear my shoes all the time.…

    Time is winding down and the past thirty nine weeks has been nothing short but amazing. It has been full of different emotions and feelings. From the stretching of the skin to the sudden movement I have never felt before. It was all a new experience, but the feeling was indescribable. After a restless night, the sunrise appeared before I knew it. The pain was unbearable, but after several hours and a couple of good pushes you were here. I was extremely exhausted, but the relief was absolutely amazing. At first sight I fell in love with you. Not for how you look, just for who you are. I never thought I could feel affection like this. What is this? Is this how it's assume to feel or even resemble? It's kind of insane how you, only one individual,…

    “Blessed are the weird people. Poets. Misfits. Writers. Mystics. Painters and troubadours. For they teach us to see the world through different eyes” stated by Jacob Norby. Learning about the world through poets and writers inspired me to become a writer, myself. Students are able to interpret the world in a variety of styles performed by poets and writers. Writers and poets expand students’ knowledge upon the world by teaching it through different perspectives and styles.…

    On the second day of school during my sophomore year, I realized how much Wahlert meant to me. It had become my home, the place where I felt like I belonged; school almost even seemed like a break from summer. Over the summer, I had become an empty shell and spent my time at the computer wasting the time away; the only interactions I had were with my family, and on rare occasion with my best friends, when we had sleepovers. To see the people I had missed over the summer was great. All of these things felt so true in that moment.…

    Samantha was my savior and protector till the struggle of social life took over our compact minds. I remember when Samantha and I first met in Kindergarten; I had just back to Fort Hood from Germany and hardly spoke English. I was the middle of the school year, kids had just come back from winter break and everybody knew each other by then but me. My new teacher had seated me next to Samantha and Sam welcomed me warmly. Sam would help me with assignments and talking to other kids and stood up for me against cruel kids when no one else would from kindergarten to third grade. I saw her as not only my best friend, but also my hero. However, Sam became more distant throughout the years and started talking to me less, but I didn't think anything…

    Friends who knew me in my childhood tell me I was a very strange little boy. Judging by my memory and the stories, I lived in a world of my own. I was a dreamer. I reminisce climbing trees in the forested area behind our home and just sitting there, ensconced on a limb thirty feet above the ground, rocked by a gentle breeze. I noticed early on that when I immersed myself into that world, surrounded by nature, and didn’t move a muscle, birds and other wildlife never noticed me and would go about their own business as if I was not there. I enjoyed the profound solitude of those moments, away from all the hustles and bustles of life, where it seemed there was a level of busyness that took me too far out of myself. Years later, I felt that the appreciation for sumptuous luxuries of solitude were too often neglected in the frenzy of…

    October 31st, 2013 in Bloomington, Illinois. It is around three o’clock in the morning. A man decides that, after having numerous alcoholic drinks, he is still in the right mindset to drive himself home. He thinks he is driving just fine – making it down the highway safely. Before he knows it, though, he plows right into a police car, T boning it, and immediately killing the officer and his service dog that were inside of the car. This man is now facing not one, but two charges of murder and a DUI. If he ever gets out of jail, it will be almost impossible for him to get a job and his insurance rates will skyrocket because of the accident. For these reasons, and simply to prevent terrible accidents like this from happening,…

    One of the earliest times that I remember committing an act of kindness was the one that made my mother the most proud. I was in the fourth grade and considering that I had just moved to a new school, I wasn't exactly the most extroverted person in my grade level. Maybe that was why everyone was so shocked to see me, of all people, standing up against a bully.…

    People are like clay in the process of being sculpted, always changing and never be the same afterwards. We age, learn and grow everyday of our lives. Sometimes we experience events that change us in some way and we can look back on that event and recognize a difference before and after that moment. A life-changing experience that greatly contributed to forming the person I am today occurred during a three day confirmation retreat. I was born and raised Catholic, so it was expected that I would do Confirmation, and up until that point, I had been mostly passive about it before, seeing it as simply another after school activity.…
