Regrets

What is regret? Where do regrets come from? Why do we have regrets?

     Throughout my life, I have had a lot of regrets. Some were small, some were big, but they are all still regrets. One of my biggest regrets is not being as close with my grandpa. Even though I was young when it happened, I still could have done something different, something more that what I did. It happened when I was 8, five years ago. It all happened so quickly, I didn't know how to react. Everyone was there to support me, and they all suggested to talk to someone, but I didn't know how to cope with it. He was all the way across the world, living in my home country. So, I couldn't just say my goodbyes. I didn't get to say goodbye, and although I couldn't have in person i could have tried. That is one of my biggest regrets. Every night, I think about him and how badly I miss him. Knowing I'll never be able to talk to him again, to hear his voice again, to see his smile again, and I don't even remember the last words we said to each other. Anyways, don't waste your words. Always remember to reach out to the people you love because you never know when your last words will be.

The Greatest Risk, is Not Taking One

     The title of this blog, is one of my favorite quotes. Once I read it, I sat down and just took a minute to analyze it. I knew from the moment I read it, that I would really relate to it. There are moments in everyone's life, where they question whether to do something or not. I know I do. For me, I'm more of a shy person, so I don't take the risk. Yet, I always wonder what would have happened if I had actually taken that risk. I will always regret not taking the risks in the past, because what if it could have changed my life in a completely different way? You see, taking a risk is something you should always do. If it is something you might be so scared of, take a moment, and look at the pros and cons. That's what I do. In the end, I always look at the cons even though there might have been more pros. I always find a way or a reason on NOT to do something, don't be like me. If I learned to take a risk, so should you.

Beginning of the End

     Over the past three years, I've really grown fond of heritage. Of course sometimes I hate having to wake up and go to school, but who doesn't? In the end, I'm grateful for all the opportunities heritage has given me. It's the beginning of May, meaning my middle school years are almost over. Part of me can't be more excited for the next chapter of my life. Then again, another part of me is more scared than ever to move onto the next part of my life. I'm basically one step closer to being out there in the world all by myself. I can't wait for that, and I want that to happen. I also kind of want to stay a kid forever though. There are two sides of this situation. One side wants to hide from the future, and the other side can't be more excited for the future.      This year has honestly been the year that changed me the most. It's made me stronger, more open-minded, and I've gotten more organized. I've been better with time management, whic...

Perseverance

By Anonymous -
      Now that we have summit, school has been so much harder. These focus areas piling on top of each other, it's like never ending. Summit has been very tough because, #1, I'm still getting used to the whole new platform, and #2, these focus areas need time and thought put into them, and it takes more than a day or two to get most of them done. I persevered because this is my education, and even though it is hard I'm not going to just give up. Of course I needed patience though, because to be able to have go preserve through something like this, you do need patience to get it done and tolerance to failure as well, because failure with this is not uncommon.      Some traits Nick Vujicic has is self-confidence, courage, and of course perseverance. How he had self confidence is because he doesn't let what other people effect the way he sees himself, and he also doesn't hide himself. He actually goes out. He also respects himself enough to not let anyon...
