Positive mind, positive vibes, positive life. This was the trilogy of sentences that Amelia repeated constantly in her negative-thinking mind. Thinking positive was Amelia's biggest goal, but at the same time, it was her greatest fear. Such a simple task, yet it was nearly impossible for Amelia. All of her family, friends, teachers, and therapists gave her the exact same seven-letter word; believe.
Believe. Amelia had studied this word hundreds, possibly thousands, of times. To have faith or confidence in the existence of, its definition read. The existence of me Amelia often thought. Sadly, it was both faith and confidence of which she lacked. Faith and confidence were the two things that formed a towering brick wall in Amelia's mind. And this brick wall blocked all positive thoughts from existing.

Only was thing remained; believing in herself. The most difficult task, but the most necessary. In order to be positive, Amelia had to believe. Now she understood why people kept repeating this word; it was the single thing standing between her and the positive her.
She started off small, with words of encouragement. "You got this" and "You can do it" were the two most spoken phrases Amelia had said. Amelia's mom, Brooke, searched on the internet for a more effective saying, but none Amelia took particular interest in. Brooke spent weeks searching and hoping to find the perfect motto for her daughter.
Ever since the diagnosis had been announced, Brooke blamed herself constantly. She thought her daughter's depression was brought on by her, which it was not. Amelia's depression wasn't caused by anything, that's what the doctors informed Brooke. She sat up late at night thinking, "Where did I go wrong?" After Amelia starting smiling and wearing more colors, Brooke calmed down. Tears of joy filled her eyes, she believed Amelia could overcome this gloomy
When you sit down to write an I Believe Essay, the first questions you have to ask yourself is, “What do I believe in?” It’s one of the hardest questions to answer. I for instance believe in patience, the power of seeing the big picture, and people’s power to help you become a better person. After you have figured out what you believe in, you then have to pick one of these beliefs to write about. My problem is that I couldn’t write about just one of these things. I wanted to write about all of them. I then realized what all of these beliefs have in common, a single person. I met a truly amazing person about two months ago. She’s taught me so much about life and myself. Once I saw that it became clear that the only thing I could ever truly write my essay on was her. Therefore I believe in the amazing girl who is Hannah Bourque.
Amelia Earhart is a major figure in American history. She broke many of the gender barriers that existed during the early 20th century, becoming the 16th woman to be issued a pilot's license, the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic, the first woman to be awarded the National Geographic Society’s gold medal, the Distinguished Flying Cross, and the first woman to fly nonstop from coast to coast.
After she shared her story, the mood drastically changed and the partially paralyzed woman, Jacey, was able to trigger emotions, while getting her message across. She shares how her parents were both killed in the accident and how she didn’t have her daddy to walk her down the aisle when she got
Amelia Earhart's disappearance, a story that nobody really knew what happened, until now. Amelia died not from running out of gas and didn't get captured, she died from disobeying the Gods. Amelia tried to look like a God by flying around the world, but the Goddesses didn't like that. After Amelia set off for flight, Pincus the Goddess of Air and Gillian the Goddess of the Ocean began to get angry, they didn't want a human to have power like this, so they stopped her. While Amelia Earhart was flying over the Pacific Ocean Pincus made a giant storm to try to stop her, but it didn't work. Amelia laughed and pointed at the Goddess, which just made her madder. So she made a plan, her plan was to strike one of Amelia's wings with lightning
As of 2017 the United States has invested over forty million dollars in Amelia Earhart's disappearance. There’s many theories out there of where she went or how she died. While many scholars/scientists believe that she crashed and was captured and held by the Japanese, all credible evidence reveals her plane crashed on an island, Nikumaroro, and she died there before colonists discovered the island.
Amelia Earhart endures as one of the more endearing characters in American history. In a time when women played a largely secondary role in American, Amelia Earhart took a leading position in the developing field of aviation and, in doing so; she displayed an adventurous spirit that proved to be inspirational for several generations of Americans.
When approaching the subject of Amelia Earhart’s disappearance, it must be looked through carefully and thoughtfully. Research started with the first indication that she had gone missing, research is still going on today as well, which can be overwhelming with so much information.With the compiling of the information and looking at the straight facts instead of opinions of what others thought of the situation, the facts helped me come to the conclusion that Earhart and Noonan had mechanical problems with Electra. Then they actually ran out of fuel when flying to Howland Island and they crashed in the middle of the ocean. From the start the Electra had flaws, but those flaws were never quite perfected when Earhart decided to make her trip around
Long ago, on July 24th, 1897, in Atchison Kansas (Amelia Earhart: Life and Disappearance), a baby girl named Amelia Earhart was born. Neither her nor her family could have predicted that this girl would become a wide-known myth, legend, and legacy all over the world. Ms. Earhart would earn enough money for flying lessons, and then go on to become a famous female pilot that would break many records. Amelia was not only one of the greatest female pilots to ever fly, but she was also one of the bravest.
Life for women was rough in many time period but along every time line there has been a woman to raise her voice against this and prove time and time again that women matter and deserve to be treated equally. Today I will talk about the one and only Amelia Earhart. She was one of the first female pilots therefore a huge part of history. I will discuss her early life and the events that lead up to her deciding to be a pilot. Lastly I will discuss her disappearance which has been a very sought after topic for many decades.
Amelia Earhart was the first woman to defy the odds and fly over the Atlantic Ocean. If not for her, and her defiant nature against the superiority of men, she would not have become one of the most remarkable people in United States history. She paved a path for all future men and women alike to continue their journey to an astounding victory.
Amelia Earhart’s career was filled with success and her life was an inspiration to many women until it was victimized by a stroke of bad luck in which she was never found again. Although her idea of a career started out rocky at first, she thrived when she found her passion. Amelia was the first woman the fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. She set many flying records and was a role model of many women. She unfortunately was never seen again before she turned 40. She disappeared in the process of attempting to set a record for flying around the world. Despite her disappearance, which many people still disagree as to what happened; Amelia Earhart’s life was lived to the fullest and she is a
A pilot, lost over the Pacific Ocean, thousands of people searching for her. But the reason why so many people were searching for her is what is truly interesting. Amelia Earhart was one of the first female pilots in the world. Everyone knew about her from her many accomplishments and how they allowed her to travel the world. But there is much more to her than just being a pilot. To what extent did Amelia Earhart prove that women can do what a man can do through determination and dedication, as well as through her many feats, and encouraging gender equality?
In July of 2017, the History Channel debuted its newest documentary, “Amelia Earhart – The Lost Evidence.” The documentary claimed to be investigating new, shocking evidence that purports that the famed pilot and her navigator, Fred Noonan, were in fact captured by the Japanese following their crash in the Pacific Ocean. However, the History Channel halted promotions of the show as it came to light that the picture, which FBI official Shawn Henry claimed to show Earhart and Noonan at Jaluit Atoll, was taken in 1935, two years before their disappearance. The documentary even further dilutes their claim by incorrectly presenting documentation they claimed held information stating that Earhart and Noonan were Japanese prisoners. Considering this revelation, Ric Gillespie, founder and executive director of TIGHAR (The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery) uses sufficient reasoning and analyzation of data in his argument to discredit the claims of the documentary in his article, “Crickets and Corrections.”
Amelia Earhart was a living legend in her own time as documents attesting to her legacy can be located in books, videos and articles written by scholars. Her actual disappearance is noted, but the details concerning all aspects of her flight is still open for publish opinion. The personal testimonies of Japanese civilian assist in validating conspiracy theoretician belief that Amelia Earhart was on a mission for the US Government during her endeavor to make history by flying around the world. Several Japanese women were interviewed and made statements that a women resembling Amelia Earhart was seen with Japanese soldiers and was kept captive in their camp.
Belief - having an affinity in believing something is true. This single word, vague, and short. As submissive as it is, Belief tends to get on roads that it never means to. The road diverges into two, and a choice has to be made. Manipulation passes, and it takes a hold of Belief. Without any knowledge, he willingly follows. This is the basis of a belief. I love the manipulation angle. Usually I think of “belief” as such a positive, hopeful word. But you are right… it is equally dangerous. Good.
