...that the youth of today is the driving force of tomorrow, Rizal even quoted that “The Youth is the hope of our future, but most of the adults nowadays call them the “lost generation”. Are today’s youth really a lost generation? Let’s face it, they may give them that label because it is true that young people are struggling in record numbers to find work, leave home, and start a family, according to a 2010 census figures recently released by the US Department of commerce United States Census Bureau. Today, I’d like to discuss the nature of the youth nowadays, the role of government in honing the youth of today, and if the youth can really make a difference. Today’s youth is a different generation to any of the youth generations that have gone before. Yes, there has always been a youth market, but the 21st century differs in both a neurological and emotional manner from previous youngsters. The radical shift has occurred most rapidly over the past decade, as technology continues to advance at an exceptional pace. These children live and exist in a digital dominion which they find as natural as the air they breathe. Well, it is true that young people are a crucial segment of our society; they are the basis for future development. Young people are social actors of change and can serve as a pressure group to lobby governments in defining their priorities. It has been clearly stressed that youth are not only the leaders of tomorrow, but the partners of today. Youth have some responsibilities...

...Live Life to the Fullest Albert Einstein says, "Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow." Albert Einstein was one of the greatest scientists, who ever lived; later on in his life he also became a philosopher, who gave inspirational quotes to the world. This quotation has personal meaning in it to me. The things I have been through in my life have brought me to where I am today and make me have hope for a better future. My thoughts are if more people lived by this quotation that there would be less chaos in the world. I agree with Albert Einstein and I will share my own perspective and personal experiences for the reasons that I agree with this quote so much. First “Learn from yesterday,” second “Live for today,” and finally “Hope for tomorrow.” “Learn from yesterday” can be perceived in so many different ways, whether a person learns from their own experiences or that of others. People are always trying to make things bigger and better than they were before, and that can all be done by learning from the past. The major experience I have learned from is going to prison and not ever wanting to repeat that journey. Some of the things I really missed like taking a hot bubble bath, watching whatever I felt like on television, eating when and what I wanted, sleeping all day, and the hugs and kisses from my daughter. Although it has made me wiser in the choices I make in my future, it is a time that I surely do not want to repeat. Not everything learned from yesterday...

...Threats of Nuclear War and Terrorism Living in the United States of America can be a great opportunity for people all over the world. However, there are many historical and current events that people need to be aware of. The United States has been considered one of the greatest places to live however is not well liked by some countries. There are many countries in the world who want to conquer the United States for power and for wars that have happened in the past. The United States is currently a very big nuclear threat in the world even though other countries have nuclear weapon capability. In reality, only two nuclear weapons have ever been used in the course of warfare, both were by the United States near the end of World War II. On August 6, 1945, a uranium device that was code named “Little Boy” was detonated over the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Three days after on August 9th a plutonium device named “Fat Man” exploded over Nagasaki, Japan (How Americans Lived. Aug. 2013). The popular consensus was that these bombs helped win World War II. The situation changed when the soviets acquired atomic bomb capabilities in 1949. With this new threat brought the Cold War and the age of Civil Defense, and Nuclear Fallout. (How Americans Lived. Aug. 2013). During this time Americans lived in fear of an atomic bomb striking the United States since they had seen the destruction it was capable of. The entire nation put emphasis on training citizens on what to do in the event of an...

...Transcendentalism states that there is an inherent goodness in all of us. Everyone has a certain philosophy, but it does not mean that one is required to think the same as another. Centered around the environment, self-trust, non-conformity, and intuition, the ideals of transcendentalism continue to thrive in modern day society. Personal experiences, readings, and an individual’s thoughts can be conjointly used to describe different ideas of transcendentalism such as self-reliance, confidence, and nature. The tenet of self reliance and confidence can be seen widely throughout pop culture and readings of the transcendentalist era. Emerson wrote, “Accept the place the divine providence has found for you, the society of your contemporaries,...

...This week has definitely been one to remember. I have been living the fat kid’s dream these past four days. Every morning since Monday, all I’ve had to do was work out and come to my dorms and do nothing. This has truly been the definition of living. I have not done anything but sleep this entire week. Something I haven’t quite enjoyed though is the whole campus being closed down. I have not had anywhere to go and eat. That has sucked. I’ve been eating these T.V dinners that have absolutely no taste to them what so ever. Then on top of that the store that’s in my dorms nearly ran out of everything the first day so we have really been in poverty, but I mean who cares? We haven’t had to go to school so I highly doubt anyone is complaining about being a little hungry. Then top of that our basketball team beat Alabama. Want to talk about putting the icing on the cake; I don’t think I could be any happier than I was after that game. Well, maybe one thing could have made me happier, no school tomorrow either! All in all, this has been a successful week. I have been able to get a little stronger in the weight room, and then go lie on my butt all day and rest my legs. Can you say the American Dream? Though, as fun as this week has been, it must come to a halt. Tomorrow, the grind starts once again and if I must say myself, I do not look forward to...

...times I have looked back on my life with regret for one reason or another. I have made promises I never intended to keep. I have hurt those I cared about the most. I have sinned against my Lord with something I have done, or not done. I have not lived as I should at all times. I would do or say something stupid or wrong, and I would tell myself, “I’ll fix it later.” But James warned us not to fall prey to that attitude. We are told in James 4:13,14 that we should not say we will do this or that tomorrow, for we don’t even know if tomorrow will come. We are not promised our next heartbeat, so why do we put off until tomorrow what needs to be done today? Why do we put off until later something that needs to be done now? What would you do right now if you were told the world would end in less than an hour? Would you run to the temple to get things right with God? Would you run home to make amends with your spouse or your children? Or would you be able to say, “I am living as I should. I shall finish the...

...HSM230] Tami Gannon [Patricia Reid] HSM230] Tami Gannon A Brighter Tomorrow A Brighter Tomorrow Once a child in foster care turns 18, they age out of foster care. Many of these teens have neither any one nor nowhere to go. About 20,000 teens will age of foster care every year. When most of these teen are forced out of the system, they don’t have the skills needed to live independently. They lack education, life skills, job skills, and coping skills. Pera,E. (2009) A Brighter Tomorrow (ABT) is a nonprofit residential program, which will provide these emancipated teens the skills needed to live independently. ABT offers educational classes that will assist the teens with getting their high school diplomas, or their GEDs. The facts show that 50% of foster children drop out of high school and on average, only 7-13% of foster youth enroll in higher education. ABT will also provide life skills courses, job readiness skills, and skills needed to run a household like how to pay house hold bills, budgeting and how to balance a check book. A Brighter Tomorrow will also provide counseling to help identify and help with any issues the teens may have. A Brighter Tomorrow will also offer Planned Parenthood and parenting classes, because the statistics show that by the age of 19, girls who had been in foster care were two and a half times more likely than were girls nationwide to have become pregnant and nearly three times more likely to have had a child. These classes will...

...programme about orphaned children in Ukraine in 2006, and Paula went there to help for three months. 2. The first text, “We must change the organ donation system” by Denis Campbell, describes (as the title implies) how Britain needs an update of their organ donation system. Three people die in Britain every day, due to shortage of organs, so his solution would be to adopt the “presumed content” system, just like many other European countries have done. The presumed content system allows surgeons to retrieve the organs of a dead citizen, unless said citizen has already refused permission for them to do so, or if their family members object. The second text, “The Ethics of Organ Donation by Living Donors” by Robert D. Truog, describes three categories of organ donation by living donors to be distinguished: directed donation, nondirected donation and directed donation to a stranger. He describes the ethical issues of each category. The issue with directed donation, in which a donor donates an organ to a loved one, is the pressure on the family members or friends. Those who are reluctant to donate an organ will feel coerced to donate an organ....

...Humanistic and Existential Personality Theories Paper Humanistic and Existential Personality Theories Paper Abraham Maslow introduced the holistic-dynamic theory, which suggests that a person’s actions are constantly being motivated directly by one need, or another (Feist, 2013). The holistic-dynamic theory also suggests that a person has the potential to grow towards what Maslow deemed self-actualization, or reaching full potential. In order to achieve this goal of self-actualization, you must first satisfy all of the other needs on a pyramid that Maslow created (Feist, 2013). The hierarchy of needs starts at the bottom with physiological needs, like hunger and sleep. In order for one to move to the next tier of the pyramid, they must obtain relative satisfaction in this level. If someone is constantly hungry, maybe because they are homeless, they will never move past the motivation for their next meal. The second tier is safety, third is love and belongingness, fourth is esteem, and the final tier is self-actualization (Feist, 2013). In the case of personality development, Maslow’s hierarchy of needs gives each individual something to strive towards. In the end, the goal is to be self-actualized; the best person you can possibly be. The hierarchy affects interpersonal relationships, as well, in that each level deals with how you deal with another person, or community. To achieve safety, you must be in a place you feel safe, with people that you are safe around...

...That which is accepted as knowledge today is sometimes discarded tomorrow”. Consider knowledge issues raised by this statement in two areas of knowledge. School Name: The International School Candidate Name: Muhammad Jamal Teacher Name: Syeda Sobia Haleem Candidate Code: 001307-0019 Session: 2012-2014 Word Count: 1234 “That which is accepted as knowledge today is sometimes discarded tomorrow”. Consider knowledge issues raised by this statement in two areas of knowledge. If today, someone came up and said that the universe is motionless, he would be considered a lunatic. But in 1917, it was a common phenomenon widely believed that the universe was static. Until Einstein presented his theory and explained how the solar system worked. This example raises a knowledge issue: “Can we say that the knowledge attained through reasoning and perception is immutable”? Because the aforementioned example completely refuted this idea. What is knowledge? Knowledge is a combination of random information. This is systematically arranged through different ways of knowing specially reasoning and perception. Knowledge is classified as a factual belief. It is indispensable that the statement is considered to be true by all- which is objectivity. Having said that, we cannot ignore the role of Subjectivity in the formation of knowledge. After taking the limitations of ways of knowing...
