    made by the Windows has not gone unnoticed and thanks to Abbot Suger for his love of stained glass we can continue to rejoice in his vision. Suger noted in his own words, “Thus, when --out of my delight in the beauty of the house of God-- the loveliness of the many-colored gems has called me away from external cares, and worthy meditation has induced me to reflect, transferring that which is material to that which is immaterial, on the diversity of the sacred virtues: then it seems to me that I see

    bag for Raelynn's house,”my mother said as she grabbed her purse. “yes I know. Bye!” I said once more. I heard the two bright headlights turn on and the old rickety car engine start. As i bounced on the couch and watched them leave from the front window I had the house to myself. Of course as a teenager I was gonna invite a friend over so I invited my best friend. She came over around nine thirty. We sat around the fireplace and watched some cartoons as we munched on salty popcorn. The both of us

She seemed to be beckoning to me so I did the

I had been working on my computer for around three in a half hours before I heard people in the hall outside of my office . I went to go make sure everything was ok.

    retirement home, many thoughts began to swirl in my mind. I started thinking of the years that have flowed by me like a bullet slicing through the wind. All the years of fun, enjoyment, sadness and grief. All the moments of desire and hope I can still feel until this day. My experiences in life through the years have helped me to view the world today; in a new perspective.

    somewhere. All of the action of the people are described in passive voice, instead of active voice. This at first give me a little wondering whether the author meant to do that, to put the human somehow become weaker and inferior than the moths. The author and his group had to sit inside, while the moths were freely flying outside. Also, the word phrase "seated at the table" reminds me a lot of school and workplace, where people are assigned a desk or table and do what others told. As I read through

    nothing. A sigh of relief comes out of me as I force my eyes to adjust to the darkness in my room focusing on my bedroom window trying to remember if I locked it. My first night living in a new neighborhood was going fantastic! I have never been so scared in my life. My family and I had lived in trailer homes before, but not one with this type of neighborhood. I remember my grandmother would warn me about the house being broken into several times before which gave me caution before she accepted us into

    Sunlight was just barely sneaking through the bamboo blinds of my light pink room, leaving my bed in a shadow of deep purple as if it was afraid to pull me from my dreaming too soon. The room was still chilly and the floorboards a frigid slate of ice as I pulled on the slipper-socks that my mother had set beside my bed, and sleepily padded over to the window. With a soft yawn and a stretch, I slowly tugged on the fraying, yellowed string controlling the shades, fiddling with it slightly as I pulled with
