a special moment essay

This semester, I completed my service hours with the Special Olympics where I kept score and ran the scoreboard for basketball games. The most important thing I learned from the articles I found was that athletics play important roles in people's lives. Athletics help build self-esteem and promote physical and mental health. Special Olympics connects with the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes because helping the disabled athletes is doing God’s work through including people into the sports community

This picture captures a very special moment for my family and I. In this moment, my dad whispered into my ear, “You did it, it wasn’t a easy journey, but you did it.” One thing a lot of people don't know about me is I'm legally disabled, and I've been part of disability services since I was 6 years old. The way my brain is wired to my ears is messed up, and I cannot process information in the same way as others can. As a child, I could not read or write, and I talked extremely "funny”. To this

There’s nothing like witnessing a person have a light bulb moment, especially when you are the one teaching them. I was blessed to witness 20 lightbulb moments all at one time last summer at Camp Sonshine where I volunteered as a camp counselor. This was the moment that I was completely convinced to become a teacher even though the idea of it has been in the back of my mind since my preschool years. This lightbulb moment for all the children that I was teaching was the most impactful leadership that

Everyone has something special that they cherish, whether it came from a loved one or a loving memory. Something that I treasure the most is a picture of me and my friends in an eighth grade event taken in a photo booth. I would say that this object would be in the class of a souvenir. It came into my possession during the winter ball from the man who ran the photo booth. Under the circumstances of an eighth grade activity/trip. I still remember that day, it was the winter ball, or the black and

There are many beautiful things in the world that attract your eyes. It could be the mist on the grass in the morning on your morning jog, to the sunset you see as you lie on your roof and wish upon a star. There are so many things that someone can think that are beautiful that others may not. Someone that I find beautiful is my friend, A. Whenever I see her, my day gets 10 times better. What makes her beautiful isn’t just her looks. It’s the way she acts when we are together; she can be her true

stadium as if they were dealing with a gigantic wild animal. Some of the players couldn't fully focus on their soccer match due to their divided attention, and some of them were terrified by the fan’s unnecessary acts. Whenever I think about this moment, I cry and smile at the same time because we finally understood the meaning of fair play of soccer, and happy ending of our game occurred as a result of that.

This advertisement focuses on an older man, and a small child who is learning to walk. The two of them are in an attractive summer outdoor setting, presumably on a warm day.

She asks the questions is it rare, or does it take a special talent. My response to this is I think it takes someone who is willing to connect on a deeper level with life. I think the real connection can happen daily if we let it. We have to learn to let go of control, and just be. I would say this connection
