Life is Beautiful

By Anonymous
 I think the movie and what we have been reading and learning about are the same in the way that they're teaching us about the Holocaust and how it has affected the world. The movie just focused on one story of the Holocaust and what happened to their family but in the movie it shows us how the camps were like and how the Nazti army treated the Jews at the camps and even not in the camps like in public places. The readings and stories that we read about mainly focused on what they did to the Jews and what the camps were like, they thoroughly explained the process and how it all started but it didn't tell a story like the movie.

Times I've Felt Powerful and Powerless

By Anonymous
 I think the time I've felt more powerful was when I realized that I'm old enough to make my own decisions and not depend on other people most of the time.

I think I realized this when I was talking to my mom about some problems I was dealing with and she told me that I had to be an independent person and not rely on people and it's not being selfish but just watching over yourself. The time I felt most powerless was when I knew I was struggling with something that wasn't in my control but I was a part of. I didn't know what things would lead up after that but I just felt like I had no control and everything was getting worse by the day.

The Best Advice I've Recieved

By Anonymous
   6th grade middle of the year or so, while I was in a difficult place with myself in life I had gone to the hospital and while I was there this really down to earth mentor would come to talk to us and he noticed I stood out differently from the other girls there. After one of the meetings/discussions we had he came to talk to me and asked why I don't participate in the discussions and acted like I did and why I would isolate myself. All I would every say was I was just tired and didn't want to talk. Slowly I gained trust and started opening up to him but he would always try to stay objective about what I would say and any thoughts that I had that I would tell him. When my time was up at the hospital before I left he told me "Sometimes when you're going through something difficult in your life all you need is to talk and let everything out and not bottle yourself up and isolate yourself and act like everything's perfect because in reality nobody's perfect an...
