a gift I'd like to give

a gift I'd like to give to is for everyone to have continual happiness and joy in their lives. In order to have continual happiness and joy it would have to involve a lot of aspects. For one, everyone would have to have peace in their lives, in their homes, and everywhere in the world. To be at peace you would have to not be afraid of anything or worry about anything, which that would also entail everyone having enough food to eat and enough water to drink. there would be no hunger or poverty anywhere. In order to be happy you wouldn't have to worry about being mugged, or abused in anyway. you would be safe wherever you go. Also to be happy there could be no sickness or accidents to cause concern. We would have all the necessities that we would ever need like clothing, a home, warm and cold water, and we would have to have entertainment, like our televisions, phones, games, movies, or whatever else entertains you. We would have to have a good job that we enjoyed going to because I think you need to feel needed or like you contribute in order to feel good about yourself. In order to be happy I think you have to like yourself. which that in-itself is a hard one to fix with some people. You need to free yourself from worries and feel like you are doing good in the world. There is so much to being continually happy and joyful that I probably can't think of everything that you could possibly do to be continually that way. One way that I can contribute to others being happy is by helping when every I see that I can. I can help by giving to those in need for instance, giving to the food bank, giving to the desseret industries, really looking for those people that are in need of things. Not only food and clothing but help with the elderly when they need someone to bring them a meal or clean their house or just someone to talk to them. You can help others to be happy by listening to them, or even just a smile can help make someone happy. I can be nice to my family and help my mom maybe by fixing a meal or tending my little niece.I think just the little things that you do can help make so much difference in making someone happy.When I graduate from high school, I want to go to college and study sicology.. I want to become a therapist and mainly help troubled youth. help them to overcome the bad things in their lives I would like to help the kids who were abused or the kids that get hooked on drugs. I don't know how to do that at this point but I would like to go to college and learn how to be able to help these kids.There is so many things in this world that make different people happy I guess it will be hard to have total happiness and joy continually all the time for everyone. I guess that I would actually have to be magic or have some kind of power to be able to make everyone happy all the time and forever.The world peace and no hunger thing would make a lot of people happy though and that is something that we could all work on. I hear that there is actually enough food in this world always to feed everyone, everywhere, always. We need to be less selfish or quit worrying so much about ourselves and try to give what we can when ever we can.That would probably help in having world peace also. If people knew that you were trying to help them and not hurt them or change the way they want to live or worship or that kind of thing, I would think that if we could do this then there might be a little more trust and the trust would lead to less contention and then we might have peace in our world.Being happy for me at this time in my life would to be able to get through school with good grades and not procrastinate so much of the time. having the homework and test be easy for me. that everyone at school got along and were all friends. Being able to basically do what I want when I want to do it, and having the money to be able to buy what I want also. Going on a nice vacation somewhere where it is warm would make me so happy!!!(A Caribbean cruse would be the ultimate. on deck with a pina colada and the warm sunshine beating down on me. All my school work caught up. and all the money that we needed, and when your happy it is easier to make someone else happy! Although happiness and joy isnt just a vacation. but that can help to make you tempararily happy. I hope that all us people in the world are able to figure it out. And start by helping each other and not trying to be rude or hurt anybody for any reason. It would be nice if everyone could be polite and when they see that you or someone else is in need that they won't hesitate to jump in and help.To not have to lock your doors at home or doors anywhere If we could have that kind of trust where you could feel safe and even if you left somthing somehwhere you would know that you could go back and it would still be there. That would be a happy thing. It would be nice to be able to drive on the road without having people with road rage. Or it would be nice if when you signaled to get over that any one any time would just let you in and be courteous. It would make it a lot happier world if we could treat each other with respect and not be so selfish and selfcentered. I really hope that we can get to that point in my lifetime and that I am able to make a difference in making people happy and helping to make this world a more peaceful place to live.I know we have a long way to go but it would'nt be that hard to turn things around if we could all just put forth a little effort everyday It is possible and I think we could get there.

A Gift I'd Like to Give

Gifts that I would love to give…. Well… I would like to give the gift of a good example to my future children! But that would be a debatable thing to give. I mean different people with different opinions would differ on what they thought a good example was… So that would be a hard gift to give and it would be different with each person who gave it. If I were to give it, I would first teach my kids (through example) to be kind, giving, respectful, caring, to use clean language, share, helpful, hard working, honest, diligent, easy going, loyal, polite, personable, virtuous, basically just good moral type things. I would want them to learn from my example to watch clean movies, to use good language, to listen to up-lifting music, to keep their rooms and themselves clean, and to be honest in everything they do. If you think about it, if everyone gave the gift of a good example to their children then our future would look to be a bright one. But then again, that would depend upon the opinions of what the people thought a good example was, and if they actually followed through and sacrificed their style of living to live well for their children to do the same. I wouldn't want my children to do drugs, or to drink alcohol, or to be unresponsible. I would want them to know how to react well to different situations and how to be smart and stay out of bad situations. This would be a very hard gift to give becuase you would really just have to change your life completely to almost perfection to give your children the benefit of a role model and yet they still might not do as you do... they may still rebel and mess up as expected. Parents who try really hard to do this most likely will get very frustrated because kids arent perfect and they will eventually mess up somewhere, but the parents got to just stay strong to their example and go easy on the kids. Encourage them to do good, and make sure they know when they've done bad or wrong. Heck if I could have complete control I wouldn't want my kids to watch pg-13 movies or to eat candy or energy drinks or to date until they were like 20... But I know that just isn't realistic. I mean that's all stuff I do so yeah... I can't expect my children not to.

Love Poem

Your innocent smile draws me in
being near you makes my head spin.

Bad days, boring days, you're my personal cure.
You make me ecstatic, of this I am sure.

Your eyes lit bright, they sparkle and shine.
The feeling I get when your hand brushes mine...

Your angelic voice, deep from within
It feels so good I'm sure It's a sin.

My wantings, my desires, to you they all meet.
My heart like a drum, begining to beat.

Fluttering, Stuttering, pounding and more
my blood flowing hot, straight from the core.

Stuck in my throat, words I can't say.
You make me so nervous just looking my way.

Caught in your gaze
my mind drifts to a daze.

No painting more perfect,
no better select.

My Life

I help you through hard times, as you do I
But you really don’t know how much I hide
Even though we are the best of friends
I really don’t think you can understand

Always angry for no reason at all
Constantly wanting to end this brawl
Fighting with myself again, and again,
Sometimes I want this life to end

Too many friends are hurt as well
Thinking that their life is hell
Too many friends wanting to stop
Thinking suicide is the only way

Sticking through, the thick and thin
Never seeming to be able to win
Walking down this long dark hall
And that's the end, that is all.

Poem: I Remember

I remember sewing straight through the middle of my finger in the eight grade. I had to go to the emergency room to get the thread out of my finger. Blood was everywhere!

I remember accidently over dosing on sleeping pills and ended up throwing up four times that night. I felt hung-over the next day. And my sister was with me and told me all this crazy stuff I said that I don't remember.

I remember going to the (Boys Like Girls) concert last summer with my friends, it was awesome! Front row seats! Touched the main guys leg and we were in the mosh! It was fantastic!

I remember going Snowboarding to the Canyons every friday when I was seven, still do! Season passes, freezing cold, and hot chocolate! Snowboarding was some of my favorite memories of all time. =)

"My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all, the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all. And even If i could it would all be gray, but your picture on my wall, It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad...." (repeats) Dear Slim, I wrote you but you still ain't calling, I left my cell my pager and my home phone at the bottom. I sent two letters back in Autumn you must not-a got em.
