Moving On In Life

We are all in positions right now where we are facing possibilities and our lives beyond high school. Our lives are shifting and it can be both exciting but extremely terrifying. Change is frightening, but it is also good. The natural course in our development is to break free and experience our lives through the judgement we have been raised with. Our time is now, whether we are ready or not. How do you feel about your preparedness for next year? Are you excited, scared, a mixture of both? In what ways have you been set up to excel with your future endeavors? How do you feel about making your own decisions?

Mother's Day

Today is Mother's Day in my eyes a very important day for moms but also for their family's. I would say I agree it is a very important day for the reasons of we are celebrating the life of our mothers and all they have ever done. I want to hear some of the reasons you feel we have Mother's Day. What makes Mother's Day so important in your life? Everyone has a special something that they remember about their mom when they were younger. What are some memories you have made with your mom? I know with my mom when I had just became old enough to go to kindergarten she would take me and drop me off. I would last only a couple minutes without my mom and I would start crying till I threw up and my teacher sent me home cause she thought I was sick. Then I was able to return to my mom. I was a mommas boy how many of you are mommas boy or girl? What are some important lessons your mom has taught? Has your mom had an impact on your life?

Hardships in Traveling

As we have recently read, the Joads lost their grampa to a stroke and their dog to a car while on the road to California. Travel in previous centuries and decades seems to have been more perilous than it is now. Do we face some of the same hardships on the road, or different ones? What has changed in recent years that helps negate some of the hardships of traveling for us?
