Making History

It brings me so much joy and excitement to witness history in the making. Who would ever thought, that we would have a black president. It really moves me to see how many people that have participated in this presidency. People thought that this day would not come for years or even if it would come at all. Barack Obama has put faith and hope into so many hearts and have should people that anything is possible. This presidency has given our nation the push it needs to work for a better future. I truly believe that Barack Obama will lead America into it greatest point in history and rebuild our nation.

"You don't appreciate what you have until its gone."


"You don't appreciate what you have until its gone."This quote is recited over and over again by many. Many take for granted what they have. Many don't realize that they have everything that they need and just act upon things that they want.Today in society, we act as if we have nothing but really we have everything. During December school break I experience a horrible tragedy. I will not explain what happen but it change my way of thinking. Everything that I had is gone. I have realized now how spoiled I was. I should have been grateful for what was in front me but instead I was blinded by greed and now that I have clear sight it is to late. My eyes have opened and my mind had broaden to a higher level of recognizing that children, teenagers and adults never accept what they have is all that they need. I Believe that everyone should take a step back and really think about what they have whether its a physical objects, someone important in there life, or just what makes you unique, and what you have to offer to the world even if it may not seem that special. It can be anything. LIFE is a mystery so be grateful for today and what you have because tomorrow it may not be there or neither could you.
