The Importance Of Living In My Life

Of course everybody in this world has problems, but children with autism do not have the abilities to communicate their problems. Sometimes, it is even difficult for those children to understand mature concepts because of their difficulty in social situations. In my life, I thought having IBS or spraining my ankle before a dance concert was something terrible to happen. I thought waking up five in the morning and running five miles was absolutely terrible. After spending an afternoon with children with autism, I realized that my life problems aren’t that bad.

The lecture “Life on the Spectrum: Living, Learning and Growing as an Autistic Person” presented by Howie Jordan was given on October 27, 2015 at USC Upstate. This speech was about the struggles one with autism faces on a daily basis and the adversity they must overcome. Jordan tells the audience about autism through his eyes and the lessons he has learned through his struggles. Lessons such as how to overcome bullying, physical and mental obstacles, and educational struggles. Jordan’s purpose is to shine light on the idea that a person with autism is just that, a person. No matter what disabilities one may have they are still human and deserve to be treated like one in every part of life.

An event that shaped my life would definitely be becoming a lifeguard. Becoming a lifeguard shaped my life by not only teaching me how to save a life but also making me a more responsible person. To be completely honest in the beginning I was scared and wasn’t sure if I could do it even though I knew I am a good swimmer I still didn’t think I would be good enough.

Everyone has an event in their life that helped changed them in some way or stood out to them in some type of way in their life. Rather if it is, something like a birth of a child, a death of a family member or even receiving a job. A significant event in my life and helped me grow as a person was when I decided to pack up and move to Houston, Texas. My move to Texas may have been short but in that short period it helped me to grow to be more independent and to provide for myself and much more. When I made the moved to Texas, I moved with family members that I knew but I was not close with it.

An event that changed my life was when we won bayside South championship against Snow hill for soccer. It changed my attitude towards life and everything I have done so far to get here. It also changed my look on the way you should act towards people you may not like. It was probably one of the best things that happened so far. Winning that game was the best feeling in the world!

There have been a couple events over the past couple of years that have significantly impacted my life. The first one that came to mind was being convinced to and then agreeing to join showchoir. I had no idea how much this was going to change my life but by joining showchoir I found a friend group and also an activity that I enjoyed tremendously. It changed how I thought about friends and how I thought about priorities in my life. Another major event that, although is rather cliche, also greatly impoacted my life was the transition into high school. High school was such a big change from the rest of my life and changed most of the aspects of my life. As a kid I thought that once I got to high school I wouldn't be influenced by others but instead

Christianity is religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, who serves as the focal point of the Christian faith. It is the world's largest religion, with over 2.4 billion followers, or 33% of the global population, known as Christians. Christians make up most of the population in 158 countries and territories. Christians believe that Jesus is the saviour of humanity whose coming as the Messiah was prophesied in the Old Testament. The Bible, the sacred text of Christianity says, that good is when you obey what God says and evil is when teachings we follow to be good and live a good life are The Ten Commandments if we fall to temptation we can see by the story of Adam and Eve and the Bible uses stories in the Old Testament such as the 10 Commandments, The Beatitudes and most of all The Golden Rule. It is clear to see that Christians believe that for actions of good or evil God provides consequences, if we are good we will go to heaven.

Introduction: A daily life means a routine-bound disciplined life a routine-bound or a daily life is a must for everybody to reach his desired goal of life.

Arguably, I am the dumbest smart person I know. One moment, I am on the top of the world leading an organization of more than 800 members; the next, I have my head stuck inside the freezer for 15 minutes in a lost cause to retrieve an ice cream bar. My life is full of ups and downs and I try to do my best, but often events escalate to the worst of scenarios. Looking at it closely, I see that my life resembles a sort of ongoing comedy. I can almost hear the powers that be, laughing hysterically at my follies. While the fates pay me visits, I seek to know why my life is full of laugh track moments.

Death is never easy. It is difficult for the families that have to face it and even more so for the person going through it. I have been a hospice volunteer for about a year now, and as one, I visit patients that are near their lives’ end and try to ease them and their family into a smooth and peaceful transition. Originally I did it with the thought of simply getting community service hours to fulfill medical school requirements, simply visiting the patients once a week for an hour. But every time I leave, I am left with the feeling that I could’ve done more. Therefore, I started to go more often and stayed longer with the patients each week, from once a week to three time a week, and from one hour to almost 3 hours each time. And each time I visit, I like to think that I have made their life just a little bit better. Throughout this year of serving, my patients have taught me a great deal. One of the things they have taught me is lifetime.

Lives began to change when my brother August was born. My life was changing in

On the ceiling of my father’s room wall hung Albert Einstein's frame which had the inscription, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” Those words greatly inspired me as a teenager. Even in the most difficult moments, those words scream in my head not to give up. I grew up at a time or period in Nigeria when the military junta overthrew the civilian government. The political environment so tensed that it drove away investors. Consequently, the political instability created crippled the economy. The only people that benefited from the military government were their cronies. During this period, the popular middle class disappeared. The gap between the rich and the poor widened. Food shortage arose because the government stopped supporting the farmers through subsidies. Thus, it resulted in the inability of the head of families to provide three square meals for the family. The food scarcity affected my family as well. There were days I would walk long distances to school without eating. Also, on some days, I turned my hunger to fasting. I constantly improvised so I would not get discouraged. In all these, my father kept telling me, “My son, this is a phase in life we all have to go through, everything will be fine.” Despite the tough hurdles I had to cross growing up, I succeeded and became a role model to other teenagers in the neighborhood because of the moral and financial support from my parents, education

Life is what you make of it and you only get one, so make it count.  Not everything gets handed to you, go out and grab it.  Make your life the best it possibly can be, go out and take chances and make opportunities rather than waiting around for them to happen.  The best things in life take time and patience, if you dream up the possibility for something great in your life to happen you gotta believe that it can happen, then go out and make it happen!  Achieve your goals by going out there into that big, wide, beautiful world and take the chances you get to make it worthwhile.

Crouched under a mango tree trying to find shade from the scorching sun as sweat drips from my head to my feet, sizzling as it hits the ground. The temperature rises day by day in the summer I pray for rain to fall, looking at the stray animals on the streets in thirst for water. I stare off into the distance of barren acres of land, touching the dry, cracked soil and seeing lifeless crops die due to the boiling heat that I needed to take care of. As a boy living in the rural areas of India in a middle-class family, everyone in the village was taught at a young age to start working. Even though, I was the third child out of my four sibling it didn’t stop my parents from making me work out in the fields. It was tough having to do manual labor like doing field work to feeding and taking care of the animals every day. As the roosters crow I wake up immediately and lay out my school uniform and shower, I comb my hair slicked back, put on my shoes and run off to school with my friends. I stopped going to school until the 10th grade because back in the day my parents wouldn't care that much about education like today. It was more about harvesting corn in the summer to plant seeds in the winter. When I was around 20 years old my two older siblings got married and my family decided it was my turn. But my father tried to help me do something in life first and not sit at home and drink or smoke so he opened a pharmacy, but that didn't work out so long due to my obsession with alcohol and just being lazy which stopped the business from lasting and I continued to do nothing.

My life has always been normal. My usual week goes like this. On Sunday I get up bright and early and go to church. My whole family gets up at the same time then eats breakfast and talks about our plans for the week.
