Blog #6 Hope

I found a decent poem about hope and i would like to talk about it. And i think what i got from this poem is that this girl is imagining what it would be like to be a bird and have the hope to fly and be free. Like, she describes in the poem, "the sun rises on each new day bringing new options and greater opportunities to spread my wings and fly". I think she wrote wonderfully and really has the imagination to become a bird and fly. Hope as it grows gives rise to courage leading the hoper to new possibilities.

Blog #5

I read an article about the religion, Judaism. The article was titled, Description of Judaism and it was all about the religion of Judaism and more. Jews have many beliefs and many of their beliefs are similar to the Christians. Like, the both believe in god and Jesus Christ. But, they only believe in the old testament where Christians believe in the old and new testament. So, the Jews dont believe that Jesus died on the cross for our sins. They also use the Torah a book of spiritual writings that they have strong beliefs for and use.

It was about how a fast pace of elementry school are desiging a program for fathers that recruits dad to voleenteer more and provide more male role models. Like, Todd Page a father, spends a day working at his kids elementary school and it also gives him the opportunity to talk to teachers.

I read an article today that is about a religion different from mine and i found a great article about Islam religion. The beliefs and laws of Islam that are quite different and similar to my beliefs. First, Orgins Islam is the religion of allegiance to God and his prophet Mohammad, he lived around 570- 632. The religious book of revelations that they use, and is meditated by the prophet is the Koran. Also, the word Islam mean peace. Mohammad is said to have received his revelations over a period of 23 years from Gabriel, who was relaying the word of god.

Facing A Difficulty

I read an article about how these students are facing a difficulty in Canada. Canadian students are facing a increasingly difficult time funding their education as the ongoing financial crisis which makes credit and financial aid in the form of pre-approved credit cards, bursaries and scholarships increasingly difficult to come by. So, there will be fewer additional funds available to students through the economic crisis. Which pretty much stinks for them.

Blog about Natural Disaster

This article that i read had to do with a natural disaster. I got the article from Science Daily.com entitled Sumatra Earthquake Three Times Larger Than Origional Thought. The earthquake set off a deadly tsunami throught the Indian Ocean. The article was about how a Northwestern University seismologists have determined that the sumatra earthquake on Dec. 26 was three times larger than there origional thought. Which makes it the second largest earthquake ever instrumently recorded. I think that it is amazing how some stroms can be so agressive, huge, and worst of all destructive and dangerous.
