Speech On Divali Celebration

Hinduism practiced by individuals, certain groups, mass festival, and at the temple. In the beginning of the film, the narrator’s guru confessed his devotion to Kali – meaning that individuals can choose certain god which fits his will. interesting thing is that people having primary god means Hindus categorized into different sections depending on their gods. Those categorized people could experience tension between one another in my opinion. However, the existence of millions of gods decrease the tension between the groups. The festival of Saraswati was the perfect example to practice the religion for certain groups. The students celebrate the festival to refresh their motivation and seeks higher will to learn. Yet, there was another form of practice – mass festival like other religions. The example was the Ganges River cleansing festival. The river was considered sacred, pure, and has a power of cleansing sins of whomever bath himself/herself. To me, the catering of thousands of people trying to cleanse their sins off shows the power of the religion and devotion of Hindus. Also, the most common form of practicing religion is temples. Hindu temples have its own architecture and art forms to amaze people.

The Iowa State Fair Queen is, in my opinion, one of the most influential women for the State of Iowa. She serves her state proudly and represents the youth in a way nobody else can! The State Fair Queen is the heart and soul of Iowa, and proves to be an outstanding role model for the youth and all communities. By being selected as my county’s Fair Queen, I am beyond grateful to be able to be in the running for the 2015 State Fair Queen. I adore being there for others and lending my hands wherever I go. I am constantly on the go as traveling is a love of mine, as well as public speaking. In the future, I plan on going into Communications with the intentions to help others and being someone they see as someone to go to. The Iowa State Fair is a

Thank you very much for sharing your testimony, what an amazing way to accept Jesus Christ as your savior, another opportunity to become even closer with your daughter. God sure does works in surprising and mysterious ways. When I read what your father told you not to forget that you were Jewish, it reminded me of what my mother told me when I broke the news to her that I was going to a protestant church. My mother raised me Catholic, but I always knew there was something missing I just did not know what it was. A year before I gave my life to Christ I began to talk to God and asked questions such as What I'm I doing here? Was I born just for this? There's got to be more than this, but what is it? It wasn't until a year later

A hero to us is someone who influences the general public in a positive way even though they aren’t physically there. We consider Beyonce as our hero because she leaves a great impact on the music industry and teaches women and girls to not be ashamed of themselves.She also gives an image of self love and respect by not being ashamed of her body. Beyonce is the type of person that actually admits that she isn’t perfect and by doing this it gives something other people can relate with . This makes her of a more realistic hero to them. Beyonce is also a supporter of the LGBT community which tells people that she doesn’t judge.Not only that, through her music her she teaches young girls and women to be powerful and to know that they are are just

When I started doing this tribute speech I had the wrong definition of the word tribute. After talking about it in class and explaining to me I had a better thought process. The tribute speech I am writing about is about my father. I want to tell how important he has been in my life and everything he has done for me.

In Mexico, Dia de los Muertos is a celebration to honor the dead. This holiday was made for people struggle with losing loved ones, and celebrating it was found to be a good way to help them cope. Families can be seen in the cemetery bringing festive gifts to memorialize lost members.

I would like to propose a ceremony for the end of Kokoda. Kokoda was a thrilling and terifiying event that happened from July 21st 1942 to the 16th of November 1942. Australia, America, Japan and the people of Papua New Ginuea fought is this war. The Kokoda Track campaign or Kokoda Trail campaign was part of the Pacific War of WW2. The campaign consisted of a series of battles fought between July and November 1942 between Japanese and allied—primarily Australian—forces in what was then the Australian territory of Papua. Following a landing near Gona, on the north coast of New Guinea, Japanese forces attempted to advance south overland through the mountains of the Owen Stangley Range to seize Port Morseby as part of a strategy of isolating Australia from the United States.

Perhaps two to three times a year at most, members of a neighboring long house appear to spend time with the members of the other longhouse before returning by night to perform what the Kaluli people hold as the cultural and emotional highpoint of the year. The Gisaro ceremony tells a story of lost loved ones; it brings to the forefront of the mind the pain and anguish of nostalgic recollections of the past and what is longed for once more. The dancers arrive by night dressed in the most ornate of dress, like that of the Kalo birds with feathers and body paints constructed from ingredients from around the rainforest to perform the ceremony aimed at eliciting emotional and angered response from members of their neighboring longhouse. They sing out as though they were loved ones lost, taking on the identity of these loved ones reincarnated in the Kalo bird after which they are dressed. As they perform, the members of the group who have experienced the loss grow largely emotional and angry, taking out their anger by plunging torches into the shoulders of the dancers to get back at them for causing such heartache. Though the fired torches pierce their skin, the dancers do not react and continue their performance long into the night – often for hours at a time. The following day, almost as a peace offering or an apology for causing so much pain in the heart of their neighbors, these performers return to deliver food to them and no animosity is held. Though an incredibly painful

Thank you for joining us today as the City of Mobile participates in the Race for the Cure Walk in celebration of October Cancer Awareness Month. This is a special occasion for many reasons but the most significant is that we have chosen as a community to make a difference and to show our own ability to be heroes. People define heroism in so many individualized ways and the world is full of heroes that make a significant impact and have admirable traits of all kinds. Our own designated heroes affect our mindset and influence our thoughts and our actions. It is powerful and influential. To me, a true hero changes the world and provides hope and peace in the most difficult situations.
