Mighty Lion

 

You might think I’m just

a regular teenage girl

with red hair and blue

eyes but i know I am

more way more than that

not a cute panda

or a dual penguin

A mighty lion the

queen of the jungle

when I’m angry or

depressed I listen

to the calming music

of my soul

I am a mighty lion protecting

her babies

feasting on the threats

of my enemies

But when I am satisfied

with the work I have done

this mother lion starts to

nod off to sleep

when I come out of

hibernation I start over again

and again

and again

The red-haired, blue-eyed girl

is a mighty lion

a angry, satisfied, Mighty Lion ready for the hunt

Fear Affects People’s Lives

“Everything you want is on the other side of fear.” By Jack Cornfield. The other side Can give or take someone’s happiness.
Fear Can help or destroy a person’s daily life. Fear can cause a person to miss a great opportunity or even the right person in their life, for example, when Jason was going home he saw this bad wreck and his adrenaline took over and he saved Tisha’s life.
Sometimes people’s fear is not a good environment, for example, Zoey was scared that the bank was going to take her house away so she robbed hundreds of stores to get the money, because of fear. People go crazy because of fear it can make someone kill a person.
When people are scared the other side of them come out to protect them from what they are scared of, for example Danny was heading to his car after work he heard a noise and saw that a dark figure was coming towards him. The dark figure had a gun and was holding at him, out of nowhere he kick the gun out of the guy’s hand and takes him down.
People can do a lot of productive and unproductive when they are scared. Fear has two side good and bad make Sure to control it all depends on How that person let it affect them.

How music can impact people’s life today

Bands like Fall Out Boy, Rolling Stone, or even Taylor Swift have a big impact in people’s life today. These bands energize people with their upbeat tempo, their love, and their passion. Whether you’re happy, sad, or angry music is always the best medicine. Therefor, music plays an important role in our culture by killing all the loud noises around and inspiring people to get through the day.
People have to put up with a lot of stress everyday and when they find a solution it all just fades away. For example, Sara was having a very bad day and all she could think about was breaking her promise to herself and cutting, but when she got her phone out and put the earbuds in, her heart started to fill up with her purpose to live. Music helps people to get off their butts and make a difference in their lives. In addition, Jack is deaf, but he listens to music all day long it inspired him to be a music prouder, now he owns his own company.
Music was created 40,000 years ago and has inspired so many life’s. For example, Kelly had been listening to music whole life. One day she decided to go try out for American idol and she won. Music can turn your life upside down for the better. In addition, Blake a young country boy could only think about playing his guitar and sing, he put his videos of him sing on YouTube, the next thing he’s on his own private jet going to Europe. Music has the biggest role for our culture today. Similar to Benjamin Disraeli said, “Most people die with their music still locked up inside them.”

Extreme Emotion

Late Sunday night Zoey had just got done watching this sad movie called “Down to You” by Kris Isacsson. She wanted to tell her boyfriend about the movie. When she got done with the convection her heart had been broken by the one guy she thought she was going to grow old with. She threw her phone across the room and fell to the floor crying. She got out a sharp pain reliever, but she over power herself and flushed it down the drain. Whether a person is dealing with a breakup and throws a hissing fit or some other difficulty, extreme emotions must be effectively controlled because if we don’t great sadness or even fear can impact physical and mental health.
Controlling extreme emotion is important so that anger does not overwhelm us and lead to hurting someone or yourself. For example, Sam was in a hurry to get to work and this teenage girl hit Sam from behind and made him really angry. Instead of saying something he just pulled over and took a deep breathe.
Controlling extreme emotion is important so that sadness does not overwhelm us and lead to depression. In addition, Sarah had been bully her whole life because she is different then all the other girls. One day she took some sleeping pills. She never woke up. Therefore, talking to friends, listening to music, doing outside activity or inside activity can help with sadness or anger.
