It revolved around the materialized world and did not involve nature in the mix. Life will be whisked into abomination and soulless without the nature aspect in one's life. 
In Dead Poets Society, the boys that follow through with their lives being stripped away and following what they aspire is what is great. Although the ending is not what at all anyone hoped it to be, life does not consist of happy endings, but to be ignorant of the wrongs and having the eyes glued on the rights in life is torture within itself. ]]> 2023-10-19 17:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/362530_/3jzcb17y4wovwob/wish/2754953095 362530_ https://padlet.com/362530_/3jzcb17y4wovwob/wish/2754957406 Carpe Diem!]]> 2023-10-19 17:14:59 UTC https://padlet.com/362530_/3jzcb17y4wovwob/wish/2754957406 362530_ https://padlet.com/362530_/3jzcb17y4wovwob/wish/2757498139 The Green of a Distraught Mind

Its always a gloomy time when the shows on my screen have just been a rhyme. A big waste of time. The park is only so far but my eyes are glued to the pictures that are running on the screen. The house is empty and my mind has been craving the green. Waiting and waiting is hard when it has to be done away from the meditation that lies outside. To have to hide. Torture of the mind is growing and lurking. The Devil down in the depths smirking. The smile of death that runs over the time  needed to relax. Except... sometimes it seems like paying a tax. 

The tax that the mind plays is not expensive. It only seeks what has become defensive. The deafening voices of needed the outside, has become a burden to what is important in the mind. The green outside, though, seems so lovely. Maybe a peek won't do any harm. The peek that will change my life so vastly. I can only thank those who pushed me to leave the comfort of my burdened mind. The green etching is a smile creating a final dimple on my left cheek. Finally, the trees and nature itself sent a warning. I am finally free from the horrible things I have been avoiding. ]]> 2023-10-22 06:04:11 UTC https://padlet.com/362530_/3jzcb17y4wovwob/wish/2757498139 362530_ https://padlet.com/362530_/3jzcb17y4wovwob/wish/2757503878 Children are having fun. Oops! They got hurt and something had to be done. Here comes Sara with a bandage! The children leave with smiles on their faces. 

I will become a pediatrician and help children who have had unfortunate circumstances. The children of this world are our next generation and they need good role models of those with different professions. To have medical professionals children can trust will allow them to have a chance to think about what they want to be when they grow up and want to do something to help people as well. Kids growing up with the inspiration to help others is what the world needs and I aspire to become someone that cares for the children who are going to become something great.]]> 2023-10-22 06:23:00 UTC https://padlet.com/362530_/3jzcb17y4wovwob/wish/2757503878 362530_ https://padlet.com/362530_/3jzcb17y4wovwob/wish/2757552684 Bo Burnham "Content"
