Proverbs 10-12

Proverbs 10 begins to Proverbs of Solomon. It tells us to make our Father happy. He will provide for His followers. You need to work for everything you have. Evil brings violence. Do not stray from the path of righteousness. We need to get rid of the hatred and be full of love. It shouldn't take a hurricane for America to come together. Don't ignore your wrongdoing, embrace it and move on. Gossip is a terrible thing, and we should stay away from it. Keeping your mouth shut is the best way to live life. The Lord's love will make you "rich." If you fear your Father, you will live a long life. The Lord brings salvation to people. The followers of the Lord know what needs to be done, and they are working on doing it. Proverbs 11 tells us to get rid of our pride. We need to follow the Lord and be faithful. You will have righteousness after death. You mustn't be unfaithful. Trouble falls on the wicked. Prosper and you won't perish. Don't gossip about your neighbor, and be trustworthy. Our nation needs guidance. We need to be kindhearted. If you are righteous then you will be full of life. Whatever you do, don't be wicked. Do not be selfish and don't bring trouble to your family. Do not go searching for evil. Proverbs 12 reminds us that there is always room for improvement. If you are righteous then you cannot be changed into evil. The righteous cannot be overturned. Be who you are and be proud of it. Don't be lazy, and don't talk yourself into things you don't need to be in. Don't show emotions. Foul language is evil and it is important to avoid it. Make sure you always tell the truth and promote peace! The Lord detests lying, so always tell the truth. Keep quiet and keep to yourself. Don't be over zealous. Do not worry and do not have anxiety, give it all to the Lord. Remember, the righteous live forever.

"The Book Thief"

I just recently finished "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak. I had no idea what this novel was going to be about going into it; all I knew was that our 10th grade English class study it. Right off the bat I noticed that our narrator was not your average Joe. The narrator is death. When I realized this I said to myself, "Oh this is going to be good." The novel is all about the Holocaust and it is shown from a German point of view. Leisel Meminger's mother gives her away to a foster German family. On the trip to this new family, Leisel's brother dies. So right from the start death is there. I'm not going to give you a synopsis of it, because I think you should read it for yourself. Just know that a German family hides a Jew in their basement for a while, and death is around every corner. That last line of the novel really got me though..."I am haunted by humans."

Beowulf

“Beowulf” is a well-known Epic poem. There is one scene that I absolutely love to read each time I read it, which this makes time number four. Unferth is who you could call the king’s right hand man. When Beowulf arrives to Heorot, Unferth attempts to degrade him. Unferth only has one thing on Beowulf: the fight between Beowulf and Breca. Beowulf lost the fight and Unferth felt the need to say that Beowulf wasn’t as high and mighty as everyone claimed he was. Beowulf explained what happened during the fight and then he goes on to pick a bone with Unferth. The passage reads, “Now I cannot recall any fight you entered, Unferth, that bears comparison. I don’t boast when I say that neither you nor Breca were ever much celebrated for swordsmanship or for facing danger on the field of battle. You killed your own kith and kin, so for all your cleverness and quick tongue, you will suffer damnation in the depth of hell. The fact is, Unferth if you were truly as keen or courageous as you claim t...

Inside Out

I waltz into my master bathroom to draw herself a bath. I remove the blood stained clothes and sink into the hot, bubbly water. The suds around mebegan to fizzle and pop, taking me back to the Vilmart dinner I had with my husband just a week earlier. Two champagne glasses sat half-filled on a white tablecloth that reached to the floor. Candles burned in the center of the table. I had been busy staring at the menu while my husband stared at me. Every once in a while I looked up and studied his disgusted scowl. I finally closed her menu and said, “Are you really going to be mad at me forever?” “Do you not realized what you’ve done?” I looked around to see if anyone had noticed his angered tone, and leaned in towards the middle of the table. I whispered, “Nothing happened.” “Yeah? And pigs fly.” “Would you stop?” He leaned in towards me. “No, I won’t. Do you know what it’s like getting a phone call from your best friend at two a.m. saying that he went out and saw your wife in the sa...
