Inner Values In Annelie

We all have two choices in life: to live life joyfully or despondently. The choices we make define our future, which

What do you want to be when you grow up? A question that is always asked to a young child or young adult. You never truly know until you grow up and experience life for yourself. You live your life in search of what you like or don’t like; what you believe in or don’t believe in. Growing up and finding your way is something all children experience, but what if your way of life is already planned out for you? What if you have no decision over your future? This life burden is evident throughout the novel Bless me, Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya, the main character Antonio Marez did not have the ability to search for what he wanted to do in life. Antonio

In the midst of everyday living, it was difficult to figure out what the correct choices were to ensure a gratifying future. However, life has an unexpected way of working itself out and pushing you in the appropriate direction that you need

Life is full of decisions. You have the choice to decide what you want to do for a career. Some may have jobs they wish they could change or made the decision before to have done something differently. The career you choose should be something you love, along with aspects that fit your values the best. Interest, skills, financially that you know you can excel in. A plan for life is important, so it’s best to know or have an idea on what you want to proceed in.

I must find my calling if I am to truly live my life to the fullest and to live out God’s plan for my life. God is the only one who can help me find my purpose. He has had a plan for my life long before I was even born and that God has a purpose for me that no one else could fulfill. “For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future, Jeremiah 29:11” (NIV). This means that no matter what I do as long as I am in accordance with God’s will, everything will turn out for the best in the end. God has promised to give me hope and a future and to bless my life. “For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do, Ephesians 2:10” (NIV). With this knowledge I know that God has created me exactly the way I should be and that he has given me talents and skills enough to do all he asks of me to do.

Even at a young age, people begin to ask you what you want to be when you grow up. Children’s answers will range anywhere from ballerina, to firefighter, to President of the United States. However, as you get older, the question becomes more serious. As a high schooler, you feel as if you need to know exactly where you will end up thirty years into the future. Since senior year began, I have tried my best to understand my strengths and goals in life so that I can prepare for my future.

If you get good grades in school, graduate high school, and go to college most likely your destiny will be you being successful. I think you create your destiny with the choices you make whether they are good or bad choices. An example from the story “Into the Wild” is that the main Character Christopher McCandless with a 3.75 GPA with twenty four thousand dollars remaining in scholarship money made a choice to go into the wild. Chris Left without telling his mom or dad which ended up with them being worried so they went down to his apartment

According to Melchizedek on page 49, your destiny is “what you have always wanted to accomplish.” He continued to say that finding one’s Personal Legend is easiest at a young age, because at that time the world hasn’t beaten a person down to the point where it seems impossible to complete their destiny. That being said, one can find their Personal Legend by simply recognizing what they’ve always wanted to do; what their lifetime goal is, essentially. As for what my Personal Legend is, I’m on the same boat as Santiago; I’ve always wanted to travel. I’ve always felt that there was more to life than the bare desert that is Arizona. As a child, my parents and I constantly moved from home to home, and for me school to school, so I’ve developed the skill of adaptation. That sense of constantly moving stayed with me, to the point where I don’t like to stay in one place too long. It’s also not just the world that I want to travel, but the entire universe. I used to get so upset that I wasn’t born in the future where space travel is possible and easier to achieve. However, I know that I can’t simply become a shepherd and travel like Santiago did, because it’s not that easy in today’s society. I wish for the day I become financially secure enough to fulfill my Personal

In some cases, fate can be a fairly good thing! Sometimes, a person’s fate is to be a rich, wealthy man or woman because their ancestors were very wealthy as well. In other cases, fate is very bad. A person or a family may be very poor; later on, a family of this descendant will most likely be poor too unless people fix their lifestyles. Fate is a tricky thing and make some people’s lives horrible or very good. It all really depends on how a person or family views life and how they

Destiny; that is where our story begins. In the novels, Of Mice and Men, The Pearl, and Cannery Row we see different destinies and dreams, but they all have the same goal, to reach them. It is the duty of every man, as far as his ability extends, to detect and expose delusion and error. Nature has not given to everyone a talent for the purpose; among those to whom such a talent is given, there is often a want of disposition or of courage to do it. The saying “you control your own destiny” applies to the everyday life of us all. The way you act will determine who you are as a person and what you chose to bring out of life. How you handle the lessons that life thrusts upon you will be completely up to you to decide. Equally important, the decisions

Fortune is another word for chance. The ancient view of human affairs frequently referred to the "Wheel of Fortune," according to which human life was something of a lottery. One could rise to the top of the wheel and enjoy the benefits of superiority, but only for a while. With an unpredictable swing up

As a society, we have a fascination with luck and how it creates better opportunities in our lives. Oprah Winfrey once said, “Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity.” I agree with Oprah Winfrey, and her message that in hindsight, we create our own destiny.

This proverb supports the ideal that one determines their own luck and ultimately their own fate, which is important in today’s society because it encourages one to work hard in order to achieve the fate they

Throughout your lifetime you will eventually have to decide on what career you want to begin your journey on. In the United States and around the world, many individuals will choose their career path very early in their lifetimes in order to attain the job position that they desire. With this being said, one must carefully plan and modify their lives to prepare for what the future withholds. For instance, in order for me to achieve my long time goals of becoming a software developer and/or a computer system analyst, then I would need to continue patiently walk along the bumpy path on my laborious, lengthy journey. Lastly, the following careers that I’ve set my eyes on will embark us onto a prolonged life excursion.

To choose your own future, destiny and life is very hard. Everyone wants to do something that makes them happy. But sometimes you take the wrong decisions or everything decides to go against you, which makes you stay in the box you were trying to escape from. When your dreams don’t get fulfilled, you will be in that box and wait for the light. It’s not always about what you want, but what you need. And to live a good life, and to do something productive, you have to work in a way that will make you happy, because that is what you need the most.
