In my birth story there is nothing really to it unless you count me just being born. I asked my mom, but, she said nothing really happened. But, one thing that she said was that she was craving some foods like burgers and red cream soda and some other stuff. But after months and months I was delivered at Good Samaritan Hospital and weighed 7lbs 12.8oz. She always had a name in mind for me, and it was Jackson because, she loved the name and it meant God has been Gracious. Do you know your favorite
certain thing for me is soccer. It’s my hobby, my biggest interest, and my passion. Soccer isn’t just a sport for me, it’s my life. It has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have played the intriguing game of soccer since I was four years old, and I have loved it ever since. I am known as a soccer player, which makes sense because it takes up most of my time, and that’s what I’m all about. I’ve been to Texas, Oklahoma, Iowa, Nebraska, and Missouri for soccer tournaments or games
experienced one of my biggest failures during the summer before my junior year of high school by being cut from the soccer team. Soccer is one of the things I love most and when I was told I couldn’t play anymore I was heartbroken. I thought that my dreams of playing were over and that it was time to find a new hobby. For weeks I searched for new things to do but I could never keep myself away from playing. Eventually, I decided it was pointless to look for something else to do because soccer is what I love
Ever since I was little I have aspired to be something great in life, a chef, a pro. soccer player, and an artist. I still hold on to those dreams in hopes they will come true. All of these dreams shape who I am today. I play soccer for “Charlotte Soccer Academy” and previously for the “Waddell Soccer Team”. Both have kept me being a team player and a stronger leader. I go to visual arts camp over the summer and try to use creativity at any moment possible. I love making cupcakes and baking which
amongst the stars.” My parents influenced me in many ways as a child, but one of the most significant lessons they ever taught to their children was to never set the standard bars for themselves. As a young girl, I always recognized that the only limits were the ones you created in your mind. In a metaphorical sense, I learned that rocket ships were made for launching beyond the boundaries in the atmosphere enclosing me. Looking back on life, at the age of 44, I know for a fact that my life has been successful
When people hear of the name Emmanuel Idowu; music, and sports come to mind. Without these qualities, I might be unrecognizable. From my youth, sports has been one of my hobbies. Growing up in Nigeria, a country where soccer is the national sport, that was the sport I played. When relocating to the United States of America, soccer was still the sport of my heart. I grew up wanting to become a professional, only realizing the difficulty it takes especially in the USA. Ultimately resulting in me to
In Argentinian culture, soccer (football) is not only a sport, but a common passion that supports social gathering and interconnectedness amongst people from different backgrounds.

I knew this was my chance to finally make not only

This paper will provide a brief look at Susan Wolf’s argument as well as my argument for why her contention is the correct one. First a brief summary of one of Wolf’s most notable pieces, “Moral Saints”. In “Moral Saints”, Wolf argues from example. She opens her piece by asserting that she does not know if there are moral

school subject, or a hobby. Recognizing any strengths or weaknesses and setting out to make them better are also a large part in one’s journey to becoming who they are today. Subjects such as language arts are especially helpful when doing this and help bring out the voices of writers and readers, young and old. For me, the activities and decisions I have made up to this point, including reading and writing, have made me the person that I am today. Reflecting on this and my personality, strengths
