...society that has made an image of what they consider a perfect male or perfect female. God has made every human on this earth have distintive features. And in his eyes they are all beautiful. If you are one who deals with self esteam issues, every morning look yourself in the mirror and say God does not make mistakes. Our first and last love is self love. The second step is accept what it is. There is only so much that we have control over. If we are presented with a situation that we can not change or affect then just let it be. "It is what it is" is something i like to say. For example say your going to be late for work becasue there is traffic and there is only one route to your job, instead of getting stressed out about being late for work understand that you can not physically pick up the cars and move them so just let it be. Obviously there is nothing you can do about traffic so don't think about it just wake up alittle earlier the next day. If you practice this on small situations, as big obstacles come in your life you will have a stressless approuch to alot of things. Finally never lose hope. Hope is what gives you a path to peacefulness. If you get to a bump in the road, feel in your heart that everything will be ok. Struggle is always only temporary. Knowing that whatever your going through will be over soon lifts all the negative energy off of you. There...

...MY PERSONAL LEADERSHIP PHILOSOPHY “To Lead with STRENGTH” My ultimate purpose in writing this is to share to everyone my personal leadership philosophy – what I believe to be important as we go on with the service. I believe that in imparting this set of guidance, you will come to understand who I am, what rules I live and work by, what you can expect from me and what I expect from you, and how I will evaluate your performance. In view hereof, I hope you will learn to trust my actions and know where I am heading. As I round up my values in life, I found out that the foundation of all my feats as I go up the ladder of my career is my STRENGTH. It always gives me the direction; it serves as my compass. The STRENGTH that I’m referring to here is neither physical nor psychological, but rather the energy to organize myself to effectively and efficiently perform my tasks, and the power to unite all of us so that we are able to attain the Army’s Vision of becoming “a professional, capable and responsive Army that is a source of National Pride.” And being your leader, it is my primary duty to impart this STRENGTH so that each of us here will have a moral compass to guide us through the maze of intellectual, philosophical and emotional issues that encompass our lives and the Army. STRENGTH outlines my character and translates to: Selfless service, Trust, Respect, Empowerment, Nobleness, God, Teamwork, and Humility. Selfless Service: When I speak about selfless service, it...

...1. What are Jim’s options? a. In this situation, Jim has a couple of options before him. He could request the meeting be postponed due to the absence of his partner, without whom he cannot complete the presentation. He also could let it be known that he saw Sara at the gas station on his way to work this morning and discredit her. Another option would be for Jim to pick up the slack and put together a presentation with the material he has. 2. What does he actually know and what does he think he knows? Does it matter? b. Jim knows that Sara called out sick and that he does not have her slides for the presentation. He also knows that he is to give a big presentation to the CEO today. He thinks he knows that she isn’t actually sick, but rather skipping the presentation. This matters only if Jim lets it distract him from the task at hand. 3. How could he apply the character qualities you’ve learned about so far (persistence, enthusiasm, optimism, and self-control) in this situation? c. Jim could be persistent and enthusiastic by putting together a presentation with the time he has so that the meeting will not have to be rescheduled. In doing so, having optimism, perhaps the CEO will see that Jim had pulled off the presentation even with his coworker being absent, which could potentially lead to a promotion. Jim needs to show self-control in that he should not mention seeing someone who looked like Sara at the gas station. That information is irrelevant...

...Obama Inaugural Address 20th January 2009 My fellow citizens: I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition. Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents. So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans. That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet. These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics...

...Everyone should know the specific guidelines and rules which should be highlighted. Everyone should agree with their part in the assignment. There should be a meeting set weekly or emails sent and everyone should be updated on the project. Any problems should be addressed and taken care of beforehand. When it is close to time for the project to be turned in there should be a final review. Mark and Betty should have been more proactive by taking a stand on their position in the group. There weren’t taken seriously because they didn’t make it known that they were just as important. I think the team would have reconsidered their position if Mark and Betty would have stood firm. In order to get people to acknowledge how important you are you must let it be known. They were too scared to voice their opinions so they were...

...My Birthday Slip This was my seventeenth birthday and I couldn’t wait for it, although I was going to be in school for it. I was looking forward to all of the birthday wishes, hugs, and gifts. It always happened that way every year, so I shouldn’t have been that much excited; I guess it was because I was turning a year older. The morning of my birthday, I had gotten up and picked out my birthday outfit. I picked skinny leg khaki pants, a white collared aeropostle, shirt, and brown baby doll shoes. To let it be known that it was my birthday, I added a pink birthday stash that read “Birthday Queen” and a pink and silver crown. I made my hair so pretty, with little tight curls and even did my makeup a little. I like to go all out, so of course I had a brand new brown and cheetah print backpack that was similar to my brown baby doll shoes. I was ready to go. By time I made it to my bus stop down the street from my house, I had already received 3 different sets of balloons and a couple of gifts. The whole ride to school I got phone calls and text messages, so I was beyond happy! All of my balloons were in the aisle and in everyone’s way so it was also a difficult ride to school. Still, I didn’t care because it was my birthday. I couldn’t wait to get to school for two reasons: first, to get off the bus with all of my balloons because I started to get a bit annoyed with them and second, to get more birthday wishes, gifts, and attention. Finally, I had made it to school. I was...

...John Brown’s Address John Brown Primary Sources Lesson To the Virginia Court, when about to receive the sentence of death for his heroic attempt at Harper’s Ferry, to give deliverance to the captives, and to let the oppressed go free. [Mr. Brown, upon inquiry whether he had anything to say why sentence should not be pronounced upon him, in a clear, distinct voice replied:] I have, may it please the Court, a few words to say. In the first place, I deny everything but what I have already admitted, of a design on my part to free slaves. I intended, certainly, to have made a clean thing of that matter, as I did last winter when I went into Missouri, and there took Slaves without the snapping of a gun on either side, moving them through the country, and finally leaving them in Canada. I designed to have done the same thing again on a larger scale. That was all I intended. I never did intend murder, or treason, or the destruction of property, or to excite or incite Slaves to rebellion, or to make insurrection. I have another objection, and that is that it is unjust that I should suffer such a penalty. Had I interfered in the manner, and which I admit has been fairly proved, -- for I admire the truthfulness and candor of the greater portion of the witnesses who have testified in this case --had I so interfered in behalf of the Rich, the Powerful, the Intelligent, the so-called Great, or in behalf of any of their friends, either father, mother, brother, sister...

...quotes of a protested poem, how America isn’t what it used to be. Everything will revolve around a poem called “Let America be America Again”`, by: Langston Hughes. “Let America be America again. - Let it be the dream it used to be. Let it be the pioneer on the plain. - Seeking a home where he himself is free. Let America be the dream the dreamers dreamed - Let it be that great strong land of love Where never kings connive nor tyrants scheme - That any man be crushed by one above.” In this section the author is introducing the idea that America isn’t what it used to be. America was simple a great dream like pioneers on the plain. It seems like the author is saying that America has changed to something that is unfamiliar and new to society. America was a place of love and romance; a place where no king was up to schemes or no man was better than another. “O, let my land be a land where Liberty - Is crowned with no false patriotic wreath, But opportunity is real, and life is free, - Equality is in the air we breathe. (There's never been equality for me, - Nor freedom in this "homeland of the free.")” By the author saying “let my land be a land where Liberty – Is crowned with no false patriotic wreath”. The author is saying give everyone the opportunity to live the American way and not have double standards for certain race or groups of people. Let Americans live the good American way without judgments or harsh radical. The opportunity for freedom is available...

...Search Enoch Arden by Lord Alfred Tennyson Published 1864 Long lines of cliff breaking have left a chasm; And in the chasm are foam and yellow sands; Beyond, red roofs about a narrow wharf In cluster; then a moulder'd church; and higher A long street climbs to one tall-tower'd mill; And high in heaven behind it a gray down With Danish barrows; and a hazelwood, By autumn nutters haunted, flourishes Green in a cuplike hollow of the down. Here on this beach a hundred years ago, Three children of three houses, Annie Lee, The prettiest little damsel in the port, And Philip Ray the miller's only son, And Enoch Arden, a rough sailor's lad Made orphan by a winter shipwreck, play'd Among the waste and lumber of the shore, Hard coils of cordage, swarthy fishing-nets, Anchors of rusty fluke, and boats updrawn, And built their castles of dissolving sand To watch them overflow'd, or following up And flying the white breaker, daily left The little footprint daily wash'd away. A narrow cave ran in beneath the cliff: In this the children play'd at keeping house. Enoch was host one day, Philip the next, While Annie still was mistress; but at times Enoch would hold possession for a week: `This is my house and this my little wife.' `Mine too' said Philip `turn and turn about:' When, if they quarrell'd, Enoch stronger-made Was master: then would Philip, his blue eyes All flooded with the helpless wrath of tears, Shriek out `I hate you...

...feelings compared with the feelings about mindfulness before I attend the course. During those practices, I got some reflections from them. Mindful eating is the practice that help me to discover my habits and notice about the food I eat. When I had the first mouth of one meal, I ate more slowly and I could feel fuller. I started to chew it slowly which is different from my previous eating habit that eat food quickly and take other one at once. However, I can still feel hungry when I doesn’t practice mindful eating. I think the reason behind is that I just chew so fast and then swallow them quickly. I started to know that I consider what I am doing when I am eating but not just rush to put the food into my mouth and eat all the food on the plate. Knowing what I am eating and doing can help me to eat in a proper size of food and prevent I feel too full. Although I didn’t weight my body weight, I believe it can prevent overeating and thus may help weight loss. Since it can let me know and notice how much, how quickly I usually eat and whether I am full or not. From an unpublished study, it discovered that people that in mindful eating course lost weight an average of around 10 pounds over a year which more than those used weight loss drugs. Moreover, there was a greater reductions in cardiovascular risk factors in people that have mindful eating. (Hobson, 2009) Besides, it let me enjoy the food I eat. As I love listening to the sounds when I am chewing and biting the food...

...exercises for 3 hours (two one and a half hour sessions) will make trainees comfortable and eliminate stressful fear. The dead man’s float is easier for beginners. Relax your body; stand in waist deep water with your stomach pulled in. Stretch or elongate the neck and tuck your chin back. Take a deep breath; hold it in and lean forward, putting your face in the water while you extend your arms forward. Allow your legs to float to the surface one at a time while looking at the bottom of the pool. Stay relaxed. Being tense will not keep you on the surface of the water. Once comfortable in the water at waist or chest deep level, trainees can move on to the next stage of kicking and using kick-boards. Grab hold of the edge of the pool and let your legs float out behind you. Kick your feet up and down in the water keeping a constant motion. Hold your breath and put your face in the water. Once you’ve relaxed doing this,...

...Pedro Torres Pj Clark English Comp. 1 December 3, 2015 Start Over I have made many mistakes in my life, from saying the wrong thing to someone or just being an ass, mistakes are common. If I had the opportunity to start over and fix mistakes I have made I would do it in a heartbeat. I would change the time I hurt the people I loved, how I acted and approached high school, and last I would have focused a lot more in staying in shape and doing good in sports. It’s often said we hurt the people we love the most and that couldn’t be more true. If I could go back and change how I handled past relationships I would have the weight of the world off my shoulder. I was a big cheater I literally had a different girl for everyday of the week. I would have sex with a girl then never talk to her again. I’m pretty sure there are some little ME’s running around the world right now. Am I proud of that no, but that’s the life I chose. I also would have changed how I spoke to my mother. Getting an attitude and being disrespectful to the women who did so much for me. I would come late and totally ignored the rules. I would tell her how she was a bad mother and often say things I didn’t mean. If I could go back, I would do good for her. That includes doing what I’m asked to do and doing well in high school. When I was in high school I did not care. I played sports and to stay in sports all I would have to do is not get any F’s. I could get all D’s and go on to the next year without a question...
