My neighborhood was located in Delaware, Ohio, and it was a big subdivision. It was filled with color and diversity. Working Middle Eastern descent, Caucasians, and African Americans composed our neighborhood. Monetarily, our neighborhood was considered wealthy. Houses varied in size and color. The people in the neighborhood were friendly, and enjoyed getting the entire neighborhood together to talk about issues, or just hang out. Everyone had jovial and positive attitudes. Neighbors were always available to help another neighbor whenever needed. Collecting mail, watering plants, walking dogs, or putting trash cans away are just a few examples of what we and our neighbors did for each other. Neighbors were very observant and safety was their

Courage tells us a lot of things and makes us think because without courage we shouldn’t live and walk around others with our full emotions and not been not bad and nice but normal “courage is what it takes to stand up and speak courage is what it takes to sit down and listen” (winston churchill). And I think it is the best behavior that a human can have in his life. And there is more good things that we write or learn.

“people around here are willing to help their neighbors, this a close knit neighborhood, people in this neighborhood can be trusted, people in the neighborhood generally don’t get along with each other and people in this neighborhood don’t share the same values” (Sampson et al., 1997, 920).

Courage is speaking up and standing up for others while going out of comfort zones to do it. The book I read for book club is called Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. Speak is about a girl Malinda who called the cops at a high school and after that nobody speaks to her without knowing the real reason why she called the cops. Her life is crazy until she finally speaks up and the truth comes out. Being courageous is important because it helps people go outside of their comfort zone and stand up for others.

One of New York City’s most historic yet hippest neighborhoods, Chelsea has also come into vogue as a top business destination in recent years. Sandwiched between the booming Hudson Yards district, the Flatiron District and trendy downtown neighborhoods, Chelsea has much to offer businesses looking to relocate there. Although it has several drawbacks – namely a limited transportation network – its major selling points such as its trendy, creative appeal and diverse office inventory make it a solid deal overall for many companies.

At least once, every person has shown an act of courage. Stepping out of their comfort zone, doing something daring and risky, and even just doing an act of unnecessary kindness to an often rude person. True kindness is easy to try and accomplish. It may be scary, but it is doable and builds character and confidence. In To Kill a Mockingbird, Scout shows courage in a fairly terrifying situation. An angry mob is trying to get past Atticus and let their rage out on Tom Robinson, but Scout steps in and attempts to stop them. She was merely a little girl, yet she faced her fears of angry adults and did something right. When true courage is shown, it builds character and confidence. It lessens the fear of doing that act again, leading to positive consequences and a bright future.

According to the Chicago Tribune, “Neighborly relations have declined in the U.S. since the 1950s. Some 28 percent of us know none of our neighbors’ names, particularly pervasive among younger and lower-income people,” (Mildenstein). Why is it that our society has become less neighborly? In our society today, people are caught up in themselves and do not like to connect personally or physically with their neighbors. Because of this, they do not take the time out of their day to meet or socialize with their neighbors. Since the 1950s, our societies values and morals have changed dramatically. We now have the whole world at our fingertips, and feel like we do not need the physical presence of people in our lives. Consequently, good neighbors have become extremely hard to come by. However, when ones neighbor is cordial, cooperative, and gracious, ones everyday life can become a bit easier.

For example, the time that I felt I had courage was when i decided to try out for the Watertown Blue Revue Dance Team. I was a junior who, at the time, had no experience and was not the most coordinated person. I was going to be competing for a spot on the team against forty other girls and there was only enough room for thirty five. Trying out took courage because I was fighting a fear. I had to overcome my fear of public performance and step into the room with confidence. This ended up showing me that I could overcome almost anything. Once I made the team I had to continually remind myself to have courage so that I could go out and perform the numerous routines. Through this experience I realized that courage can really only come from within one. One has to be willing to overcome their fears and have the courage to challenge

A two story yellow tinted house that has been created into our own home over the past fifteen years, will soon be left sitting along the side of the ally on the right and the storage units to its left. In three short years learning to swim in the clear blue water that sits behind the house on Massie Street, playing Christmas games with family, and watching helicopters land will all become a part of the house that built me.

The book describes Bottom as a neighborhood atop the hills, overlooking the town of Medallion in Ohio. The time is 1919, immediately after WWI. The irony in the name of the neighborhood is that instead of being located at the bottom, it is actually above the town. The name came from a white landowner trying to fool a freed slave into thinking that this location was more desirable than the valley because it was the “bottom of heaven--best land there is.” (p. 5). The trick worked at the time, but after settling in, most residents realized the inaccuracy of the statement.
