Resolve: The Negative Effects of Arts and Entertainment on American Youths

Okay. I know I have been off for a while now; I've been busy, so let me start by saying Happy New Year to everyone. Now to the issue of today. I just want to know the true and unreserved opinions and thoughts of people out there. I know this happened slightly a while ago, but I just stumbled on it... Sign in to see full entry.

The Call

THE CALL From the rivers and oceans, The nations and continents, The planet and globe, Comes a call of freedom from the jeopardy of nature, evident in global warming, pollution and human exploration of wildlife, In the hearts and innermost feelings of the poor, The spirits and souls of the...

The Break of Dawn

THE BREAK OF DAWN At cock crow it begins, With sunrise, each morning, it starts up, And the beginning of a new day, it marks, The sorrows of yesterday, it drowns, The travails of the past it washes off, And the problems of yesterday it erases, Into our world, the light of hope it beams, Our hearts...

Struggles

STRUGGLES A part of life, they are, A vital ingredient of our existence, Always they juggle us, and better they never cease to make us, More reasonable, our mental struggles make us, Out of us, experience, the physical struggles bring, And more disciplined, they make us, At different points,...

Dreams

DREAMS They are the blessings to our world we give, The purpose of our existence, They are the reasons we live, They come to the hearts of the determined, They befuddle the minds of the great, And they flood the reasoning of the successful, They are the definition of success, Sometimes though, our...

Be Careful I

BE CAREFUL I As you climb up the success ladder, Be careful not to fold your arms, Because that may mean failure, Be careful as you try to be a Christian. For hypocrites are all over the place, Be careful as you try to fraternize with the girl next door, For prying eyes are all over you, That you be... Sign in to see full entry.

Memories

MEMORIES They sojourn the mind path from the past to the present, They we either revere or cast away, They either build or tear us down, Make or mar us, Stagnate or prosper us, We can either use or abuse them, They either overcome us, or we overcome them, They either prevent future loss, or future...

Deep Within

. DEEP WITHIN Deep within lies the seed of greatness, Not on the hills we lay hold or across the skies we mope, Deep within lies the warrior’s strength, Not on the arms we rely, Deep within lies the origin of true love, Not in the pretence we show, Deep within lies the art of friendship, Not in the...

The Vow

THE VOW Living in a world so mentally depraved, So socially perverse and morally degraded, A world drenched in debauchery and promiscuity, There rumbles within me, a pressure; A pressure to compromise and join the lot, As I sit on the balcony each day, Beholding the sight of ravishing maidens,...
