What Does My Mom Mean To Me

From a young age I have looked for ways for me to positively affect any area of society. For example I was a member of the boy scouts this organization helped found my basis of leadership, service and character. In this organization I first encountered the positive actions one person could have on their community and how a proper leader can rally for a righteous cause. Continuing from fourth to eighth grade I devoted my extra time to volunteering at the Mays Landing Library. Here I was able to make a positive impact through facilitating the spread of knowledge to the younger generation including my sisters by helping in activities that encouraged reading and instilled a desire for world

I am an active member in my community. I do community service with my sorority and on my own. With my sorority, I have organized events supporting victims of domestic violence, gotten to know many different women from many walks of life and have helped them realize who they are and have helped them settle on their own path while following mine. I was able to use my own obstacles, my own challenges to help and inspire others. I have regularly participated with the Incarnate Word church choir and have expanded my faith. I have learned and accepted that there is a higher power than myself and that that higher power has an ability to work miracles and help you find strength in the deepest parts of yourself that you never knew

I experienced childhood in a three-room duplex with six other individuals, my mother, father, older sister Claire(17), and three younger brothers Colin(13), Cody(10), and Cason(8). Life was entirely typical for me when I was younger, aside from me breaking a bone on a play area zip line, however next to that, I would state I was normal. My dad was and is still an extremely giving individual, I mean we could be penniless, and he would in any case attempt to help everybody out. I figure that rubbed off on me in light of the fact that as I got older I began volunteering at places like Ivey Ranch since I loved horses and the nearby schools. I started to understand that I cherished the sentiment helping individuals and it soon turned into an energy of mine. I think it is the sort of person I am, a person who loves to help when there is nothing to be given in return. Alongside this, I'm a person that is continually changing and learning things, what I mean by this is I am continually attempting to better myself, and the community that I live in by utilizing my background and advice from others.

After that day I wanted to do something good for someone because it could encourage kids to do it. I went to school one day I was playing I was playing basketball with my friends. This one kid wanted to play but the picker of the game didn't let him. I said to him "if he can't play I won't either" and then I left with the kid to go play another game with me. We had so much fun that the kid who didn't let him play wanted to play with us. I want to keep on encouraging kids to do nice things for other

To this day, I always try to help someone when I can, even if it’s with the smallest task. For instance, when I’m at the store and I notice that someone is struggling to pick up items that fell, I will rush over to help them and make the process easier. Not only this, but I will place things where they should be when I find them on the floor, so that this cuts

I have always taken great pride in my ability to bring myself out of poverty and to become a well-rounded person. I have suffered through many obstacles along the way, and with great determination, I have been able to overcome them. I know that I have been fortunate and I never take that for granted. Friends and family are a great support system and I am blessed to have the best of both. I work very hard to instill strong beliefs into my children and their friends. It is very important to me that I give back to the community. Understanding social culture and economic provides and even greater sense of wanting to help those that need it. I volunteer through my work with Habitat for Humanity and the Houston Food Bank. My daughter also volunteers

Mark Girouard strives to give the reader an in-depth look into the values and ethics of the upper and sometimes the middle classes during the Victorian Era. In his article, he begins by stating it would not be possible “to select one group as quintessentially Victorian,” and because the upper classes values differed so vastly, they could not be classified as only “upper class” (Girouard 49). For simplicity purposes, the “upper class” was then separated into three distinct categories to better help organize the values of the time period, in particular, they were as follows: “earnest Victorians, Victorian swells, and Victorian gentlemen” (Girouard 50). To be considered an earnest Victorian one would need to be serious, religious, and committed

I do not mean literally give what you have to the less fortunate, although donations are very important to do. I mean sharing happiness and experiences with other people, giving the less fortunate a moment of joy. The consequences are feelings of great satisfaction, which nothing can replace. Learning to do good for other has made me a person that is open, who shares, and feels good after doing so. I have taken these values as part of my own, and plan on maintaining them for the rest of my

I volunteer at a clothing and food bank. While volunteering my peers and I provide service of passing out food and clothes to those in need. While passing out the food and clothing items I realized the dignity and worth of each person. Majority of the people that come to the clothing and food bank are not homeless. These are people who have jobs but are just struggling. It humbles me a lot and let me realize that could be me or one of my family members. My peers and I treat each family with respect like we would want to be

When my family and I went to Cali we had a lot of fun with our family. We were there for 2 weeks and a half weeks. We witnessed many different environments like the ones that nobody talks about that changed the way I look at things I have and do. Especially, the ones my parents give and I never thank them and so while we were there I wanted to take a day to give back to the people that did not have as much as I did. So we gave out toys to kids the day before christmas, and food so they could enjoy a meal with their families. And almost all the people we helped were so thankful and it really touched me.

Growing up I was taught to plant good seeds, share knowledge, and skills with others that may need it. When you spread positivity and people follow your wisdom and views then you will be recognize as someone who made an impact in their life. For example, if my parents demonstrated or explained

If you have ever met an Eastern European woman, you immediately figure out that her disposition tends to be small and angry, like a soda can that has been shaken too many times. She will also have a glare that can make your arteries turn into blood popsicles in a matter of seconds. This all depends on whether you have committed an enormous crime like not cleaning your room or doing your homework or something less heinous like not answering the phone in the first to three rings. My lovely mother happens to be as Eastern European as they get, from Haskovo, Bulgaria, and I am reminded of this fact every day. Every time I complain about a test or how I only got six hours of sleep, she brings up her struggles being a Turkish minority and seeking educational opportunities in a Communist Era. The truth is, although I have faced many challenges being an immigrant in this country and in some ways have raised my parents more than they have raised me, I would not give up my culture or background for the world. My mother serves as a constant reminder.

As I was doing these deeds, I found that most of them came naturally; however, it was partly due to how I was raised, but most importantly, because I was lead by the Holy Spirit. Whenever a need must be met, I fill it if I am able. I find that anytime I do something good for someone else, whether in secret or publicly, I benefit either way because it makes me "feel good." I try to get honest and introspective with myself asking, "Why do I/we do good deeds?" What is the motivation behind it

My mother always tries to help people in need. She showed me this recently with my half brother, Alec. My dad lives in a different town than both of us. One year for Alec’s birthday, my dad was supposed to spend time with Alec, but he was too preoccupied. Whenever I called Alec on the phone and shouted “Happy Birthday!,” he explained to me what happened. I repeated the story to my mom, and she threw a quick birthday party for him at my brother’s house. With her actions, I learned to always try to help people when they are feeling low.

To achieve rapid economic development, many countries resort to various activities to exploit natural resources. One of such activities is mining which is an important economic activity with the potential of contributing to the socio-economic development of an area.
