THis I believe by callie louks

I believe that life is not fair.

I believe that life is not fair to any person. If life is fair to a person I would like to know "why it isn't fair to me?" My life was not what it used to be before all the bad things started happening.
The first thing that happened in my life was my grandfather dying. I was very close to him, and I was not around when he passed away. What made it worse was that it was the day before my birthday. Now every time I have a birthday, I think about him and it makes m… Continue

This I Believe

The Opposite Of Love Is Not Hate, But Indifference

After recently hearing this statement on a television show, I began to think to myself how true this really is. If we hate someone, we're putting our heart into it, aren't we? We feel something. We're thinking of this person; even if our thoughts consist solely of hatred, we're still thinking of them.

So, if they're in our hearts, if they're on our minds, if we spend time out of our lives feeling something for this particular person, what kind… Continue

This I believe
I believe sickness is an opportunity to take a break from life and have a look at things. Most people go through life without stopping every once and a while to just view life at a different perspective.

They do not see what they are missing, and they tend to just zone out of the world and they forget what life is all about, and what is important to them and after a good long look than they re… Continue

This I Believe Everything Is Forever

I believe that everything and anything is or could be infinite. Infinite itself is a boastful word. What’s the thought that comes to mind when you think of infinite? The meaning is forever. Have you ever picked up a flower and looked at? You probably don’t think anything of it, rather than its pretty or smells good. Though time and space is infinite, and therefore looking at a mere flower could be looking at an entire world. In that case the germs that surround the room your in could have a worl… Continue

I Believe in Sports

I believe that the four main sports, Soccer, Football, Baseball, and Basketball are the greatest endeavors to men. It’s the feeling you get watching them from your living room recliner, or behind the grill outside. It’s the excitement you get when your buddies are there sharing every moment with you, and knowing that you could be seeing history at any point. It can even be the emotion you get when your team loses a big game or your favorite players get injured and miss weeks of action. Sports ar… Continue

Tanner, You have a few errors in wording that are distracting in your This I Believe. Read it aloud and see if you can catch the mistakes. Correct and re-post. Mrs. Seale

Justin, You need to proof-read and re-post your This I Believe statement. You have several errors that take away from what you are trying to say: run-on sentences, misspellings, etc... Read it aloud to see if you catch the mistakes. Before you re-po…

Callie, Believe is spelled wrong in your title. You need to fix it because your readers will discount you immediately for misspelling it. Let me know if you cannot edit the title, and I will help you. Mrs. Seale
