inspirational picture

I think this in very inspirational picture. In my opinion it shows a beautiful part of the world. The picture looks so peaceful and perfect that it shows there is good in the world. At times when the world seems so cruel I would like to look at a picture like this because it shows the world has good in it. It seemed to be such a peaceful picture that it has an instantly calming effect. This is an inspirational picture to me because it shows the world at its best. In my opinion a sunset is one of the most beautiful things to see and this sunset is one of the best.

Lent

For lent this year I decided to do extra things in my church, so I am helping with our parish' Passion play. It is a lot of fun, but it involves a lot of practice time. Most of the play is based off certain songs so the timing of everything must be perfect. I am really enjoying being in the play with other teenagers from my parish. We will perform the play on Palm Sunday at put church, it should be a lot of fun. I think participating in our Passion play is a great way to celebrate the Lenten season.

Future Career

When I grow up I want to be a teacher. I would like to be a math teacher at a high school one day. I know... weird, but I have always loved math. Math has always been my favorite subject and then one day I decided that when I grow up I want to be a math teacher. I had some great teachers in the past who loved the subject they taught and were enthusiastic about it. The enthusiasm they showed made me want to be a teacher later in life. They inspired want to become a teacher and show the enthusiasm they had when teaching.

Service Project

Right now I am helping out with my church's CCD program to earn service hours.  I am usually with the older kids, the 7th and 8th graders, but I think it would be a lot of fun to help out with younger kids too. I have helped out with it before but this year is different for the 8th grade confirmation class (the class I help out with.) To be confirmed they made more requirements for the kids, such as participating in our church's youth group, and moved confirmation to September.  I try to encourage the kids to go to youth group and to get into it because they are will have to participate in it anyways.
