Vocabulary: Temporary- lasting, existing, serving, or effective for a time only, not permanent
Readers Response- Carrie Underwood "Temporary Home" 5 min.
This song makes me cry every time, it's just so true. Whether you're adopted and you are getting another house, it's not your true home, or you're in a rough spot in your life, it's not where you were made to be, or maybe you know that this world is are temporary home, we all have a place where we belong with our true father (God) in heaven. We just have to realize that our rough spots in this life aren't going to last. One day we will see God's face and every hard thing in our past life is gone forever. Earth is our temporary home

Readers Response and Vocabulary
Vocabulary:Peace- a state of mutual harmony between people or groups
Readers Response- Ronnie Dunn "Bleed Red"- 5 min.
This song really has a point about racism, we are all the same on the inside, so why do we have to be mean to each other. We all get fall down, we all get lost, we all bleed red. When we show hatred toward some body just because they look different, we are being mean. It's in these times that we need to remember that we are all the same, we all bleed red, we all fall down, but most importantly, we are all made by God. When we are being mean to some on who is "different" we are just being mean to our brother and sisters of Christ. "Love one another, as I have loved you" (John 13:34) We are made to love- not hate

Readers Response- Taylor Swift "Mean"-5 min
This song is the one I always think of when my sisters mean to me. You have a few choices when somebody is mean to you; you can be mean back, you can be mean to somebody else continuing the cycle, you can forget about them, or, if your Taylor Swift, you can write a million dollar song about it. Our world would be a lot less hateful if just one person forget and forgave the person being mean. By stopping the hate you stop this huge chain of hatred that would have spread hate to many other people. It's okay to be different and some one will make fun of you for it, but you just have to keep on doing what you love and nothing else matters.

827. Those who ignore the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them
I believe that this is one of the major reasons why we have a history class because if we know our past we can better control our future. If no one new about the Holocaust chances are that it would probably happen again, but it hasn't because we new how bad that turned out. Also if we ignore the lesson of civil rights we will end up mistreating people again. I'm sure there are many other lessons to learn from history, we just have to listen, cause if we don't we are surly going to repeat the tragic events, or perhaps not repeat the good events. Either way we should most defiantly listen and pay attention to our history lessons and teachers, for this is where the true knowledge is taught.

355. If YOU don’t say it, THEY can’t repeat it.
This truism made me think about the whole blog bully thing if ____ and _______ hadn't hadn't commented mean things on Garima's blog then Garima couldn't repeat to Mrs. Green and then Mrs. Green wouldn't have to have done a week long lesson on how to be nice to people. Also if you say some really bad words in front of a 4 year old then they are going to go repeat it to their friends who will repeat it to their parents who will eventually find out that you kid taught it to theirs and will be very mad at you. Just be careful what you say (or type) and then it can't come around and bite you in the butt and you won't be in trouble for it.

Vocabulary: Hapless- Unlucky or unfortunate
Readers Response- 5 min.- 1001 truisms #14 A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
I believe this truism is completely true, no matter what you are doing, it starts off with one step. Getting a degree in something starts off by applying for college, or to start a garden you first need land to put it on. It doesn't matter what you are going to do, or how big of a step you take, but you always have to take the first step. For my Language Arts Mythology Project, I have to take the first step of learning about it before I can actually do the project. It all starts off with one step. that's something that today's mind might not understand, we would think that to get there we would have to jump there instead of taking baby steps, but we do need bay steps to get where we want to go, no matter where we are going.
