How to Help Prevent Bullying
In the United States, more than 30 percent of teenagers are victims of bullying. 160,000 children stay home every day in fear of going to school due to being bullied. And that number grows daily with teens fearful to tell their elders for fear that the bullying activities might somehow grow worse in some way. I personally feel that bullying has grown way out of hand and is a very serious topic that should be addressed within our homes as well as the local school systems.

Love Will Save Our Society
Why can't we all be friendly towards one another? It sounds cliché but I would genuinely like to know. Many humans cannot resist causing misfortune to others. Why can't people discern that we are all simply trying to live our lives as we determine? Everyone has issues in their lives so why make it difficult for someone else? We are all part of this non compos mentis society, so why not begin loving one another in order to ease the pain of the madness which surrounds us? If we all showed compassion along with wisdom and appreciation, society would be much better off.

The Three Kings
Prologue: Ordinary People “Heroes are ordinary people who make themselves extraordinary.” -Gerard Way ♛ The night howled with strong gusts of wind, threatening to knock over trees that had been standing strong for decades. Despite the weather, a boy no older than thirteen took cover behind a hedge as another burst of wind shook the branches above him. He untied a sweatshirt from around his waist so that it wouldn’t drag in the dirt, then got down on one knee.

8 Manners You Should Be Practicing
Growing up in the South meant one thing — manners were instilled in me from the time I could walk and talk. I try my best to remember the things I was taught and shown throughout my life and to use them as often as possible. It seems as though many people, especially in my [millennial] generation, have forgotten what their mommas taught them! Remembering your manners allows you to make a good first impression, and to come off as someone who has their life together and who really cares about the people around them. Practicing these common, but often forgotten, manners will make sure that you come off well to anyone and everyone.

Life
Do you ever have moments when you look at a little kid and see the excitement on their face over a new toy, pots and pans, the first snow fall or even a paper origami boat? Something that can be completely random, yet, they still have this twinkle in their eyes and a grin from ear to ear.
