  1. Compassion

    March 5, 2014 by hopev227

    During the “Phantom of the Opera” we learned at the end about Christine showing compassion twords the Phantom by kissing him. She shows him that not every person in this world is horrible. Watching these dramatic scenes in the movie are just heart wrenching. I was crying as I watched. Compassion is a very important and very beautiful thing in life. If we don’t have compassion twords people or things we really don’t care. In my life I’ve been shown so much compassion. When I was born my mom couldn’t take care of me and put me up for adoption. She did that so I could have a better chance in life with a good family because she knew it took a mom and a dad to raise a child. Without her doing what she did, who knows were I could be right now. I’ve also been shown compassion by many of my friends. Last year was a difficult year for me and instead of leaving me and going you’re on your own 2 of my clostest friends made sure I was ok and that I was gonna make it. They didn’t run away and hide. They made sure that nothing was going to happen to me. Without them my life would be not even close to as amazing as it is today. Compassion is a beautiful thing that we all need to have. Because if we didn’t have compassion we wouldn’t know what love and grace is. Compassion is one of the most important things in this world and I hope in the years to come more people would be shown the compassion I was shown and more.


  2. FOCUS 14

    February 4, 2014 by hopev227

    FOCUS is a weekend church retreat at my church that is for middle and high schoolers. I went last year and my life really chanegd and this year was moving again. FOCUS is a way to unplug from your life and just have fun with your friends, and college leaders. I had a blast Saturday night with Dylan, Christina, and Felicity. It just was so nice to just be my weird, outgoing, crazy self around them! I had real fun and not like normal fun. FOCUS just was a great time and I cannot wait until FOCUS 15!!


  3. Music in my Life

    October 27, 2013 by hopev227

    Music has always played a big role in my life. Without music I don’t think I would’ve made it through some really tough times. I am a metal head. What I am constantly listening to is my “Riot!” playlist. My favorite bands are all featured on that playlist. I’m in love with A Day To Remember, Pierce The Veil, My Chemical Romance, Escape the Fate, Mayday Parade, Green Day, Asking Alexandria, and Black Veil Brides. The music they play I can really relate to. It’s about not conforming to society and just being you. You aren’t judged in the metal community. I honestly don’t care if people think I’m a freak. My music doesn’t define me as a person! Sure I wear black but I’m not always in black. Im happy with myself and I’m happy with the music I listen to.
