This I Believe 3 ( Inviting The World To Dinner, By Jim Haynes)

 
             To start this off it all begins in a salon in Paris that has been going on for thirty years, it is only hosted on Sundays. People come from all over the world and get to meet new persons as well as trying different meals. At this place the food is cooked by different persons and it is served as dinner, within saying this many friendships are made, as he states that a little six year old girl became friends with some one who was eight years old . He believes that anyone can tolerate anyone instead of understanding them but he also states that this can lead to even loving them in the end or at least accepting them for who they are. If this man could have his wish made he would introduce everyone in the world to each other, but at least he gets to introduce people from different nationalities in his salon.   

This I Believe 2 (Listening is powerful medicine ,By Alicia Conill)

 
      To begin with in This I Believe the woman was a doctor and she was attending her last patient of the day, she was in a rush so she quickly did what she needed to do then headed toward her patient to talk. Her patient was struggling to put on socks and asked her to help her, but she ignored her in that moment and went on talking about how she was doing with her health as well as telling her that she knew the that the patient was having company. As the doctor was speaking the patient interrupted her and told her a story that was one of the reasons that led to her health problems the doctor continued on to help her with her socks as well as asking if she needed something else and the patient replied No, but in that moment the doctor realized that listening is the key to bettering as well. Time passed by and she would always think about what she had learned from that patient as in truly listening and the importance of it. one day she got sick and was unable to keep being a doctor but she still taught med students and professionals but as a patient in a way where she would tell them how she believes that listening to her could heal her. 

This I Believe 1 (Finding Freedom In Forgiveness By Ronald Cotton, Jennifer Thompson- Cannino)

 
              To begin with in This I Believe a woman was raped, and an innocent man was sent to jail although they were both victims they still lived with either remorse or hatred for a while. The woman identified the wrong man as her rapist but at that moment she did not know that it was the wrong person, this caused the man to go to jail for eleven years. Within time she found out that she chose the wrong person and felt so guilty for what she had done, meanwhile the innocent man had plenty of time to think in his cell although he was very angry while being in jail he forgave her. He states that he understood her the fact that she was suffering, but that she was not the only one suffering he suffered as well as in missing his freedom but not only that his family too. The man decided to forgive her because he wanted peace in his heart he did not want to keep living the way he was, the woman was healing and learned from the man how to let go of the pain she felt. They became friends and also a new person in the way they healed their self.

Secret to college success

   
            I hope to be successful in my journey, but within that I can't just hope and expect for things to be easy I know it can get challenging, but how will I learn something new if I don't challenge myself. I think that I will mostly need to follow Exploring Strategies. I believe this because this strategy could help me think of my ideas for instance, Free Writing with Free Writing I can write what comes to my mind and not necessarily stress in that moment I can come up with different ideas, and after I've done that I can go back and read and notice where I touched a different topic that has nothing to do with my writing. In conclusion I hope that with that secret I can be successful in college.

What i want to learn

     
                I am aiming to have a good grade in this class, I know at some points it can be very hard but if I keep going then I believe I can do it. Anyone can actually do it you just have to actually want it bad. Like I want to improve as much as I can in this class I love to write although sometimes I get distracted but that is one thing I  want to really learn is being able to focus and concentrate on my work without any distractions. Hopefully I learn the requirements that I need for this class in order to get into my next English Class.

First Blog

   
                   To begin with my name is Selenie I am nineteen years old ,I graduated in May 2019 from George Washington Carver High school. I did not take time off of college i started right away for some reason I felt that, that would benefit me in some way. I am a very sweet person I like to help people in ways I can even if sometimes I am struggling. I think to myself that somehow we will get to where we need to be if we just keep going. I like to just lay back and chill, I really do not like to sit around and listen to people or drama if it is not beneficial to me. I believe if you mind your business then you can get very far in your life in live so happy.
