and took me away from her. I never could understand what my parents meant when they said it was for the best to take me away, that she wasn’t raising me properly. When I look back now, I think she did a wonderful job of teaching me the ways of living fully, and giving to others for nothing in return. I grew up knowing that having things was a great luxury, but giving things is a wonderful feeling knowing you are doing something to change the world. So I became a farmer and I would take veggies and

Imagine if the cruelest person in the world became the kindest. This happens in A Christmas Carol after Ebenezer Scrooge is taken on a remarkable journey through time. Although A Christmas Carol was written in the 17th century, its messages and themes stay alive today. Scrooge started changing his personality and life-style throughout the novella.

Bethany did teach me one thing, though.No matter what happens, you can find some good out of it. Life isn’t very easy but look for the good out of things that come at you. Fitting in was not the easiest thing

Greetings to all in this wonderful auditorium. Today, I am addressing you all on behalf of most of the school and students who care about humans and I am sure that every single one of us seated here does, and if you don’t, you have issues. Recently, we have come together and collected over 5,000 pounds to be given for charity, and it would be great if we all get a chance to use it on the poor.

After watching the video featuring Dave Ramsey regarding leadership I was left with a lot of useful information and ideas. Mr. Ramsey and his friends sat and hashed out issues they have come across over the years while in the business world. They put a new perspective on leadership for me.
