Dare To Be You

     We live in the times where there is a constant demand for energy. The planes we fly in, the trains we travel, the electricity we use...each and everything we do we are using some kind of energy. Basic thing as water coming to your house is pumped up by pumps to bigger water tanks so that it can reach you. The gas in the nearest gas station to fuel up your car comes in tankers that in itself are driven by fuel (how ironic). But there is always a question that one day we are going to run out of the fossil fuel that we heavily depend on (Gas). What will we do then? Scientists started looking into alternate ways to generate energy and we have various ways of doing that for example, Geothermal Energy, Hydrogen Energy, Tidal Energy, Wave Energy, Hydroelectric Energy, Biomass Energy.  They are all different ways to create the energy. But one very interesting and different source of energy is Wind Energy . It uses the wind to create energy.       There is a controversy if we should o

Optimism changes lives!      Optimism is a character trait which many people have. Some people are pessimists, this means they will find a problem with every situation. While many choose to be in the dark, optimists choose to see every challenging situation in a new light. The world gains an immense amount from optimism… From people to technologies to hope there is no sight for what optimism can bring.  Being optimistic is the key to life!     Optimism and world peace go hand in hand. We always need optimistic people to change the world. If there was no Nelson Mandela, Abraham Lincoln, Mahatma Gandhi, or Martin Luther King Jr. this would be a very different world right now. For example, let's take Martin Luther King Jr. he was so optimistic, and he kept fighting for African-Americans rights. If these people were not optimistic we would not be living in the world we are living in right now. All these world leaders fought for a cause, and they changed the lives of generations t

  Were you born here? Your father? Your grandfather? Your Great Grand Father?  Almost everyone is an immigrant in the United States. Some people came from Europe, some from Russia, India, some from China and many from many other countries. That is why the United States is called the melting pot. This means America is filled with many different people and cultures. Immigrants face many different problems when they come to the United States. Immigrants come to America to live freely, find a job and practice religion freely. Immigrants face problems like learning English, racism at work, racism at school, and especially employment. There is no end to what immigrants face in the United States. For immigrants who come to the United States from none English speaking countries, it is not easy to learn the language quickly and this has its own challenges. For example getting a job, filling out forms, or even basic tasks like communicating to people for basic things. America is also not

      "Sweetie come downstairs, you do not want to get late for your first day at your guitar lesson," said my mom.  "I will be there in just a minute," I said as I put on my clothes. As I sat sluggishly in the back of my dad's car I thought of how great the guitar lesson might turn out to be.        "Honey, are you excited? I have heard your teacher is very friendly," my dad said.  Once we got there I struggled to put a smile on my face. For some reason just looking at the place made me feel like I didn't belong there at all.  "Hi my name is Mr. Bowman and I will be teaching you the guitar," said my guitar teacher in a very fancy way.    "Hi my name is Hayleigh," I said trying to lift my hand to shake his hand. Looking at his hands I saw bristle and line marks. He said those marks were from the guitar strings.  Once we got started  I felt like I could doze off,  but it will show my dad that I never wanted to play the guit
