When I think of all that I have lost, I mainly think of people. I have had many relatives die recently, and looking back, I realized that I barely knew any of them. I think the biggest loss is not the death itself, but the fact that I never got a chance (well I had many chances but did not use them) to actually get to know my aunts or grandmother. Don’t get me wrong, death is a terrible thing, but I feel that this is almost worse. Through these horrible experiences, I have learned that kindness is key. My shyness and lack of socialism kept me from meeting my family before it was too late, and in the future, this will not be the case. My thoughtlessness helped no one.
Last Topic of the Year, due by Sunday, June 7:
Perhaps its time to pick out some favorite memories of Pine Point. Let us know about three (or two, or one, or fifty) of your fond memories of your time at our school. Don't worry about choosing a favorite. Just describe a few good memories. (Feel free to do more than one post as memories come back to you.)
Remember to check the rubrics (to the right). Contributions to the forum can be brief, but must be well thought out and carefully written. No typos or grammar errors, please.
