You may be strong, but you are never strong enough. Your will to complete a desirable task may be deliberately strung with effort and hope. But how strong are you? You can never be too sure, but one thing you do know is that your will, will always be stronger than one who wishes to help. You’ve never seen anyone that suffers so much for you. You’ve never experience the compassion directed toward your emotions. You wish you can reciprocate, but you’re too strong for this person. What you get out of what you do, is what you put into it. You wish so badly you can show the one who cares so much the same respect that has been given. You’re so strong in this task you attempt to complete. Overall, that person is stronger than you are. Can you ever be so strong to do more than what you ask yourself? You don’t need a miracle, you need a guardian. A person that is nice to you no matter what you know has been done wrong. Where can you find one? Or are you even strong enough to handle one?

     Of course, no one wants to anticipate their death. But if need be, its hard to think of 10 great things to come up with before death may come upon me, for I do not have much experience of this fantastic world we live in. But as an inexperience teenager, this is how mine goes:

1. Play baseball at a professional baseball field under the lights at night.

2. Give back to my parents in compensation for all they have done for me.

3. Collaborate with NASA, and attend a boarding school.

4. Go Skydiving

5. Travel to Italy

6. Meet famous musicians, preferrably pianists.

7. Write my own music, and publish my own novel.

8. Get married, and raise an athletic son, and well-rounded one.

9. Fly into Space

10. Save a life

These ten things would mean a lot to me. Life-long Dreams can happen at any given moment.

       Components to kindness are very different. Many people have the perspective that patience is the best way to show kindness. Some people think that showing compassion to some one’s feelings is the greatest way to show kindness. Personally, I think to be a true person filled with the kindness characteristic you must have all components. Kindness is not a simple characteristic. It means a lot to people, and that’s how you should treat it. The will to be kind is also a key component. Many mature people can see the attempt to be kind, and many people appreciate that. Be who you believe you should be. You can’t force anything on anyone, and I believe that a discussion of kindness should be within yourself, not projected in different opinions, because you are who you are and changing may not always be the proficient idea.

       I wasn’t completely happy about what was being presented to me in class, for it did not have much interest to me. But I was later presented a conversation with my teacher, Mr. Bogush. He explained to me that the essence of failure is the unprecedented characteristic that helps success to present itself. I was very glad he shared this with me for before then, I wasn’t quite sure to do anything above the normal in his class. He showed me a video consisting of Michael Jordan sharing his failures. He explained that he missed over 9,000 shots, lost over 327 games, and that he failed at making the winning shot when everyone expected it of him. Those are the reasons he has been so successful. This definitely planted a perpetual perspective in my mind, and I appreciate it.

    Wonderful places are all around you, you may not even realize a strong emotion to this specific place. However, a wonderful place to me isn’t always the peaceful beach with the skim boarding, or the nice baseball field or basketball court; sometimes its a feeling that is stirring within yourself. A prime example is the winning of our basketball game today to win conference title and go undefeated, 13 – 0. I never wanted that pure moment to end. It was a wonderful place. The incessant feeling of victory and pride for you and your teammates is a true thriller. How great it was to be in that position, a champion.

             Take me somewhere that I have never been before. Take me somewhere where the light is the emotions that light your way. Take me to the place the forever holds a spot of comfort. This would be the perfect wonderful place. Sometimes its my bed. Sometimes its the baseball field, alone, with nothing but my thoughts, and the lights that seem like they shine forever. One day they will stop shining, and my personal esteem may be inhibited. This is my personal room. Four walls trap me in, and no one shall be let in. The only way out is the test of another day in a wonderful life. Sometimes, this wonderful place changes when you don’t want it to.

            Only one wish for someone else is very hard to complete a task that you desire for another person. My one wish would have to be, “I wish for a happy and healthy life for my parents.” I would want this, because living every day life can be truly stressful for a parent and is not healthy to go through. My parents are the most important people to me and I would not want to lose them over the hardships of our world. They need this wish, because, like all of the parents, they are going through a very hard time with this world and raising five children, boys at that, all at once. I want them to stick around as long as its meant to be.
