My English teacher is one of a kind. I find that often in her class she makes me use the parts of the brain I have never ever used. You ever have those moments in your childhood that you can remember every detail it seems? Well that would be my essay that I have to create for English 1. And let me tell you that I never really paid attention, in detail, to these moments. I just saw them as any ordinary moments that happened, but when you cannot remember many experiences from your childhood these are significant in many ways. I will write more from my essay as the time arrives... but I would not let things just pass you by. If you remember moments in you childhood, or even from last week, do not let them go unnoticed. It really could be a moment of "non-being" which is amazing.
Little example...
Riding around the streets of Thailand in the back of my Aunts Toyota Helix I noticed every detail that passee me by. The smells in the air, the posture of people, the color of the sky, the buildings that passed me by. Seeing the poverty around me that made me come to a realization. I am such a small peice that makes up the world. I knew that I was meant for something bigger that the world was mine. I knew in that moment of "awakening" that in the world I would leave something behind to be remembered forever... Life was not just meaningless or undefined. That death was not something to fear... for when I die I know that my life would have been fulfilled.
