Policemen: Heros or Villains?

Over the past year we have heard case after case of how the police are mistreating people according to race or even just to do it. But are they all true? Not every policeman is an awful corrupt person like the media has made them out to be. Are policemen the heroes or the villains?

We know that doing the right thing can be hard, especially when everyone is already against you. Police have had it pretty hard lately, and more and more often we are not being being honest with ourselves. We are blaming them for things that they had to do. We are being unkind to them for something they had to do.

Often times the media only states the negative things that happen in the world,  and neglect the telling of good news. We don't get to hear the good things that cops do for us enough. Police are good people who make hard decisions and we don't give them enough credit for it.

To me, the police force is the heroes of today's world. They are what keeps us, the people, in order. They are good people who have to make hard decisions, often for our safety; so let them. Let these officers take charge, and let them make the hard decisions so we don't have to. Be kind to those officers in your areas, because we don't know what kind of crap they deal with as an officer.

    I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop as I read this. I thought maybe you getting pulled over yesterday would make this summary. Nicely done!

The Wall Flower Experiment

Wall Flowers. "What are these "wall flowers" you speak of, Hannah?" , you may ask me. Wall flowers are those people in the back round you never truly see or notice. They're the people that may be shy, or home schooled or maybe a little "weird" as your mind might categorize them. They're the people no one finds the need to talk to because, to us, they may seem too "uncool" for us. I'm writing this to tell you they're not. Wall flowers are not like that at all. Sure, we might be shy or home schooled, but that doesn't make us any less of a person, right? Just because we don't have a million friends surrounding us or are talking all the time, doesn't mean we aren't humans. Today I had the opportunity to go to a math class at my local high school and become the wallflower for the hour. I watched as one person went out of her way to talk to me, and I'm grateful for that. But I also had the opportunity to watc

Dare To Let Go

Cellular Devices and Social Media. Why do these two programs/objects consume so much of our time? Why do we let them? What's the point? I've mentioned in past posts about how important it is to recognize the beauty of the world outside of our devices. And I also know you probably don't believe me, but it's true. The thing with devices is this: When we are so involved in our texts, instagram and facebook posts we are  making it impossible to fully embrace the beauty of the world. We let the amount of "likes" and "followers" dictate what we do with our time. But the thing is when we put down our phones we can experience the beauty, not just see it. Life shouldn't revolve around our devices. Granted, they have helped us evolve in our sciences and medical department, but that's beside the point of this article. Anyways, back to the subject. I'm going to share an experience with you guys. This summer I had the wonderful opportunity to

Take A Deep Breath

Stress isn't easy, that's for sure. But when you look for the bright side in it all, it creates space to let you breathe. Yes, take a deep breath. Don't worry about the future, worry about you. In this moment. Not about what's going to happen if you don't understand this problem or don't finish this assignment right this second. Just breathe IN, and breathe OUT. That's all it takes. Can you feel your muscles relaxing just a little bit? Or even a lot? Can you feel your mind becoming clearer once more? Now hold on to that feeling. That same thought. Now that you're calm think about this: You have so much to live for. If you don't finish this one thing, you'll live. But you'll have a strong education in your future that can and will benefit your family in your future. You'll be able to get a job, and support them. You can do this. You are more capable than anyone. You just need to believe in your mind. You may not be able to
