Joseph,
This is something that every successful person knows very well. You’ve only truly “failed” when you give up on yourself. Anything is possible with enough determination and perseverance. I enjoyed reading your own stories of failure and success and I hope that people will be inspired by them.

Very powerful poem Maddie. I like how you combine the good and the bad when talking about something so beautiful. Also that picture of honey made me hungry.

Andre,
I enjoyed reading your review and I’m now considering taking my mother to Ozzy’s for mothers day. The food you described sounds delicious and much more tasteful than another ham and cheese sandwich. The only thing I would have liked to know is how crowded it was when you went there.

Without positive role models, kids can end up passive-aggressive, misguided, and suffer from a lack of confidence. Coach Cordova looks like a good guy, and your school…[Read more]

Malia, I found it fascinating how much a person’s mood can change after a few small changes to their appearance. But I personally don’t think it’s healthy to modify yourself with piercings or implants. I’m not saying its physically unhealthy, just mentally. If you can learn to love yourself the way you are, I think you’d be much happier than if…[Read more]

Aleksandra, I think you need to take a few deep breaths and consider what the worst possible outcome of this situation is. At the very worst you might be minorly inconvenienced, because out government has a system of checks and balances to keep anyone from gaining too much power. I would be more afraid of the gridlock in congress than a few bad…[Read more]
