Growing up in a Christian middle-income home, I had never experienced poverty and I assumed that it only really existed in other far away countries. Everyone I prayed for, played with, and talked to was exactly like me. I had no part in dealing with those different or less privileged than I, but one day all that changed. Mr. Holder was in his 60’s, and he lived in a trailer with no running water, electricity, or windows. His alcoholism was apparent by the countless beer bottles broken and scattered across the small yard, which he had purchased with the little money he had.

Now he is on someone else’s route and I no longer get to see him as I often did. I hold on to hope that our influence and

They were a group dedicated to obtaining equal votes for women. She comes up with the idea of the use of militant direct-action tactics.

“Adolescence is like having only enough light to see the step directly in front of you.” ― Sarah Addison Allen. The brain, amass with neurons, acts as the body’s “control center”. It governs everyday life for all human beings on the planet. From adolescence to adulthood, the human brain goes through a variety of changes in its physical and chemical composition. The teenage brain and its lack of maturation results in a different viewpoint of life and as well as comprehensive decision making compared to adults. There are biological reasons on why life is so much more different for a teenager than an adult. The teenage brain is still in a developmental stage: the prefrontal cortex (part of the brain that control decision making) is still in its
