To get on the brighter, opposite side of it, I must surpass it with the outlook of all I could achieve. Every second of it holds a meaning, as I’m constantly learning about myself and

In life a person will go through ups and downs, good times and bad times. When they are down or in a slump it may seem like the world is fighting them everyday; bearing down on them. Within these periods a person may start to lose hope and fear that life will not get any better for them. These periods do not indicate failure because it is only temporary because whenever life gets down it only means the future is due up to get back on track.

Everyone experiences stress in a different way: some shut down while others cry or become frustrated.

When I get too stressed, for example, my immune system drops which causes me to get sick sometimes even three times in a month. Other times, I just have to take breaks from my responsibilities to prevent myself from breaking down or becoming so exhausted that I cannot finish the task at

     Native Son by Richard Wright is a piece of literature that is meant to demonstrate how fear in the white community drives society to label blacks as dangerous, immoral, and subhuman. The main character, Bigger Thomas, embodies all of the preconceptions and secret fears that people associate with black Americans. He lies, he steals, he is violent, and by the end of the story he is a rapist and a murderer. The first time he is given an opportunity to improve his family’s life, he tries to adapt, but because of a turn of fate he has to throw his chances away. Bigger wants to evade all of the stereotypes of “people like him.” Eventually he realizes that he has become what everybody fears most: a nigger. His

And sometimes in this journey there arises various situations where one is unable to deal with these turns, let alone have the energy to face the ups and downs.

Everyone experiences adversity. Challenges that everyday people experience can potentially shape, improve, or destroy one's sense of self and personality. Through all these hardships and seemingly impenetrable obstacles, the most pertinent component of one's ability to overcome can only be shown in actions taken despite the odds. People have one of two options; to let those obstacles overwhelm them and keep them from pursuing all that they were destined to accomplish, or to march forward, fight harder and push past the seemingly impossible circumstances to become greater than they ever expected to be, but until they take the step that enables them to be successful -- they are stranded. All of our actions, mistakes, successes, and behaviors shape our person and what we can or cannot become, but what will always matter is our individual decisions and actions not those of the people around us because at the end of the day, we are the ones who have to deal with ourselves.

Have you ever heard the saying that goes “place yourself into the shoes of others”? Let’s analyze and take a deep look into the phrase. By placing ourselves into somebody’s shoes we develop a feeling of connection with them, better known as empathy. The question is, what is empathy? Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of others. People often confuse empathy with pity, but it is actually aiming the understanding of people’s feelings and perspectives. And by understanding them we learn how to use them to guide our actions. I believe that in order to change our society, people should be able to learn how to feel empathy or compassion for others. The Bible tells us in Romans 12:15 to "Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep.”
