Experience is the instructor that literature can never be. Everyone is different, created uniquely with gifts andtalents that can not be taught in a book. A person that ventures off after something that has nothing to do with their inner desire, can easily be taught to do something that they have no skill to do. What experience provides however in contrast the what you read, is the enlightenment that comes with getting your hands dirty. To physically interact with something can tell person that there are a million ways to do a task, whereas a book tells you of one way; which limits your creative capacity. A perfect example is how children think so much further out of the box than many adults. When children grow olfer, they are less creative, unless they are put in an environment that stimulates creativity. I’ve ran into “Can’t” so many times, there is so much logic with can’t, safey precuations and regulations put in place so that you remain secure. Those very securities introduce us to the dangers that we face, the dangers that we do not acknowlege as such. If a mother was afraid of her child to trip, she would never teach her child to walk. It is through our experiences that we face different trials meants that stregthens us and reveal our capabilities to us. There is alot that we can do and achieve, because The Lord made us outstanding regardless of our shortcomings. We are outstanding because through Christ we can do all things.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
