Nothing can stop her

Would you let cancer stop you from living up your dreams?? A teenage girl 17 years old Carley Allison has found out that she has a rare type of cancer called malignant melanoma. She has a passion of singing and she has been singer ever since she was little and she started taking guitar lessons. Whenever she found out that she has the cancer she went online to find out more about it but as soon as she had looked up some of the things it made it worse for. She is very positive about it now and she thinks everyday that she will get through it and it will not affect her singing. If I was her I probably would not have been as strong as her. I have a passion for singing as well but I would not be able to be able to cope knowing that I have cancer that might cause me to lose my singing abilities. In my opinion she is a very very strong young lady. So would you let the cancer affect your passion or from living up your dreams?

A young woman aborts her baby to avoid the social stigma of being an unwed mother. I think that she should not be forgiven because there are other option that she could have chose from. She could have chose to put the baby up for adoption and she could have also kept the baby and just deal with the people talking about her.  There are several people that are going to criticize you for what you have done and how you have dealt with things. Abortions are the wrong thing to do because in my opinion you should not kill a baby just because you do not want the baby. You should not have done anything if you do not want to have to deal with a baby or if you don't want it because of the baby having special needs or just because it would cause you social stigma. You can put the baby up for adoption that way people that can not have kids could have the opportunity to adopt a baby. Whenever you do not want a baby or if you want to avoid social stigma you should not do anything with anyone until you are actually married. I understand that there are several people that believe that they should not have a baby until they are married because of their religious beliefs. I just think that if you do not want a baby in the first place then you should not try anything before marriage.

Do you think that philanthropy should be a moral obligation? In the article What should a Billionaire give and what should you it talks about how billionaires will use their money for things that they don't really need and there are people that have nothing that they need or nothing for themselves. The people with more money could be giving money for the people that have nothing. There are several billionaires who give money just to make them look good so that people would like them more. I really think that it is wrong to give money to a charity just to make you look good. People should give money willingly because the people need it and they actually want to help them out. I think that if you have things that you no longer need or if you have enough money to give then you should give it to a charity for people that need it.

The article that I read was about two males and they were on a boat heading from Kiribati to Maiana to fish. They only packed enough stuff for that day and they fell asleep on the boat and the drifted away from their original destination. The older guy had gone days without water and eventually passed away, the other guy eventually found land. Several days later a shark had come to the shore and woke the guy up by hitting the boat he was in and led him to a ship nearby. This article is interesting to me because normally we thank of sharks as mean, killing creatures but in reality most of them mean no harm at all. I think that people give the sharks a bad name just because of people that had been killed by them or have been injured by them but sharks do not always realize what they are biting into. Whenever they are biting into human flesh they think that it is their normal food that they eat. Most sharks have never bit a human so they would not know what the difference from their normal food is until the bite into the flesh. This man was very lucky that the shark actually led him to people on a ship. I truley think that God was watching over this man.

The picture represents Narcissus and Echo. Narcissus is looking at his reflection in the water and has fallen in love with himself. He is so amazed at how handsome he looks that he doesnt he see the half naked woman beside him. "He can not move, for so he marvels at himself, and lies with countenance unchanged, as if indeed a statue carved of Parian marble."
