Utopia

"All my writing is about the recognition that there is no single reality. But the beauty of it is that you nevertheless go on, walking towards utopia, which may not exist, on a bridge which might end before you reach the other side."
Marguerite Young

In a utopia, there is no future or past; there is nothing to desire or hate. There is only here and now. Age does not matter. There are no secrets, therefore no greed and no longing to know. Money is the cause of inequality, starvation, labor, war, greed, death and crime; so none exists. Food is evenly distributed with no one counted out. Utilities, only existing if needed and recreation is fair and everyone is included. Racism and bullying is eliminated, and everyone lives in peace.

If I could change this world, the two things I would eliminate are desire and hatred. I would do this because hatred fulles war, crime, murder, etc, and it spreads faster than any known decease. Desire gives hatred reason and causes greed, war, crime, murder, and so on. To do this, any forum of currency would be stopped; therefore there would be no greed, and greed causes war, injustice, poverty, crime, labor, etc. No secrets would exist and knowledge would be shared among all who wish to know. Therefore stoping war, death, injustice, greed, desire and hate. Peace would be held as Albert Einstein said, "Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.".

This I belive

I believe that babies should be cared for. Every year millions of babies die because they don’t get vaccinated against deadly diseases. People should have the right to ensure a safe delivery in a good hospital with many trained doctors who have the right medication and vaccinations for the newborn baby.

My sister is 1 month old and I love her a lot. She was born in a hospital with lots of doctors and nurses. She is very lucky that our family has enough money to pay for all the hospital bills. However other families are not as lucky as ours and can’t afford to go to a good hospital. They might have to give birth in an unclean hospital with doctors who are under trained and who don’t have the right vaccinations that babies need. The babies could die of a disease that the right vaccinations would have prevented, or they might put something in their mouth that is unclean, which would make them extremely sick because their immune system would be too weak to even kill the slightest bit of dirt.

I think you should be able to get the right medicine for babies poor or rich. Every town should have a hospital with trained doctors and a large supply of treatments and vaccinations. I hope that there will be a time when every baby gets all the help and care they need. Babies should be cared for, just like my sister. No baby should be left alone to die as many do.

Babies need help. They can’t walk or talk and they can’t take care of themselves and need somebody who cares for them. Babies must be given medicine and a family that cares for them. Babies are the most important things in our world yet people would rather buy something useless than donate that money to a family that could use it to save their baby.

I believe babies should be cared for. After all, they might end up taking care of you in the future. So why not help them? Don’t just stand and watch when you can do something about it!

Kristallnacht

Kristallnacht or night of the broken glass happened in 1938. 1,668 synagogs were burnt down by Nazi soldiers. Many jew-owed stores and companies were destroyed and about 100 jews died that night. Afterwards, Hitler blamed it on the jews and said they had to pay 1 billion marks for the damage that they didn't cause.

Propaganda was believed to be one of the reasons that triggers. these showed Germans strong and powerful and showed Jews as fat rich people. Soon any jew who tried to fight back was sent to a concentration camp. They were forced to leave Germany. However, they were rejected from all bordering countries and the other countries would only let the fewest amount of Jews in.

Many Aaren Germans had a hard time deciding whether or not to take part in Kristallnacht or not. Some took part, some left Germany and most just ignored it, and thought that the Jews deserved it.

When I learned about Kristallnacht, my first thoughts was 'Why?'. Why did the Jews deserve this? Why didn't anybody stand up? Why did people even join in? These are only a few questions that I had about Kristallnacht.

I chose this picture because it is a world war two propaganda poster. It shows how Hitler was seen as a god. This scares me because it shows how much people loved him and how many followed him.

A Is For Awesome

Since I am an A profile learner, I am both a visual and verbal learner. When I am stressed, I lose patience with everything and I try very hard and I won't understand questions, I will not get any answers and I will lose all enjoyment of anything. Since my dominant hemisphere controls all my dominant body parts, I can learn in any way, even when I am stressed.

One of the only ways to reconnect my two hemispheres is to have somebody sit down and talk to me until I am no longer stressed. Unlike other profiles, it is nearly impossible to reconnect my two hemispheres by myself.

I learn best doing a variety of different learning strategies. Some of the best ones are like watching a movie, doing a skit, and brainstorming. It is easiest to learn when I do activities in small groups.

It can be hard for me to be able to connect to others socially and emotionally. It is hard for me to agree upon others ideas, however it is much easier for me to back up my ideas than other people can.

I chose this picture because it shows how it is hard for me to understand questions and other peoples ideas when I am stressed. This also shows how it is hard for me to know what to say in a conversation.

Freedom From Fear

Aung San Suu Kyi has been finally released from home imprisonment and is reunited with her family. Although she is free, she considers herself lucky because many others have been jailed for much longer than she has. She still fights for democracy and wont stop in the foreseeable future.

I think that she will never give up in the fight of democracy because the Burma's military rulers only put her in house arrest to try to shut her up (to stop fighting for democracy) but all the way though out all the 21 years she spent in house arrest and even now, that she is released, she still fights for democracy. I think that she relates to Fatmire Feka because they fight for what they believe in. Even after a group of people come and attempt to crush their souls and what drives them to be leaders, they both have come though, alive and even stronger than before.

The Domino Effect

I think that this relates to The Blokes. I think this because once the blokes punished peter, many were effected and as others became victims to the blokes, everyone becomes effected and fear the blokes. It is sort of like dominos. Once one topples, the rest fall as one hits another. An example of this that relates to the poem is that if everyone was a town in a continent, everyone would depend on each other to help in battles, to supply with food, ect. If one town were to be wiped off the earth completely, then some other towns might have depended on them for food or water. Another town might need help for a battle that they don't have enough troops for. After that those towns would get destroyed and the domino effect would start.

4 Letter Word Story 'Death Of Animal'

from cats view

I was on my bed when I felt pain in my left arm. It was like fire in my body. More and more pain hit me. Then; no pain. I did not know where I was. I was high up in the sky. I saw a dot that was sad so I went to help her. She was tearing up and I felt bad for her. Then I saw the rock. It had my name on it. Then it hit me. From then on, I knew, I was dead.
