Secure Dwellings: Rejoicing in Hope Secure Dwellings continues to assist homeless children and their female caregivers throughout the state of Alabama and surrounding states. The program is currently serving 10 mothers and 22 children as of this board meeting date. I often wonder how they able to continue live with all of the unfortunate circumstances and experiences that have cause their lives to be in disarray, some situations due to poor choices and sometimes due to no fault of their own. The more I ponder that question the following scripture came to mind, “Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.”
INTRODUCTION An evil house, the kind of some people call haunted is like an undiscovered country waiting to be explored. Hill House has stood by itself for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. The walls standing straight, bricks neatly, floors firm and the doors sensibly closed; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.
When the author describes the house on page twenty to twenty-one, he states “They started up a wide marble staircase. . . . Lights outlined the white wall of a vast house above, with pillars and statues and doorways going who knew where. The maids opened a door to reveal the most beautiful room . . . . It had beautiful wooden beams on the ceiling and wallpaper decorated with hundreds of birds. [Matt] saw a couch upholstered with flowers that shaded from lavender to rose. . . .
It’s weird to think that a floppy stuffed animal can have such an important place in a child's heart, but it can. My favorite thing when I was a child was a stuffed elephant named Lumpy. He was named after a character in Winnie the Pooh. He was blue and flopped over whenever I tried to sit him up. I always had him with me when I slept.
The neighborhood I lived in had two different sides to it. One half was filled with old, dirty, ran down houses that looked abandoned, and the other half looked fresh, brand-new and clean. The newer houses all had similar structures and paint patterns on them. It was exploring this new part of the neighborhood where I discovered that there were other kids in my neighborhood besides me and my next door neighbor. At first discovering and meeting all these new people was exciting, some of the neighborhood kids even attended my school.
Writers can enrich their story in many ways. The use of conflict, foreshadowing, and personification can be used by authors to deepen their story. The short stories “The Open House on Haunted Hill” by John Wiswell, “The Chaser” by John Collier, and “The Veldt” by Ray Bradbury all contain evidence of these literary devices. Dispute, foreshadowing, and personification are all elements that enhance short stories.
Would we want to spend time there? We kind of think no. The house may have a personality, but it 's not a very nice one. It has an almost "mechanical paranoia," and it continues on "senselessly, uselessly" with its tasks. When a dying dog comes in, the house doesn 't think "oh no, we have to help the dog"—it 's just "angry at having to pick up
The view of the house from the outside and the meaning it holds to Vanessa, an inside member, both provide insight to how
My freshmen year at Indiana University was very much of a surprise for me personally. I learned several things about myself as an individual and what I want to do with my time at Indiana University. Bloomington is a buzzing college town that always has something going on. Most people associate Bloomington with Indiana University and never really look past that. My first few months on campus I never looked past the image of Bloomington as a college town but when I did it changed what I wanted to do with my time on campus.
We went all the way to Louisiana and got on a boat and went around the swamp looking at dirty messed up lake side homes, and looking for some alligators. We saw a lot of birds, and when we got to the turn around spot the guy who was driving the boat whistled and a bunch of wild boars came out and started begging for food. Well we didn't have any so we felt really bad, just as we were about to sit down the guy handed us some marshmallows to feed to them, we did and they tried jumping up on the boat and eating more, it was so cute. Once we were heading back some guy on the boat had noticed something on a log up ahead, well there it was an alligator, sunbathing on log to keep warm. Obviously New Orleans is a really nice place to go, yet also very
It was first day of middle school, my mother used to pick me after school but now wasn 't able to so I had to start riding the bus. I 've never road the bus to my house before so I was scared. Once the bell rang for school to get let out I walked outside along with the other kids to find my bus, 210. I spent about 20 minutes looking for my bus
Failure is inevitable through the thought of giving up. By giving up, the only option left is to fail, which can leave to abandonment. In the poem “Abandoned Farmhouse” by Ted Kooser, the effects of failure is present in the family that is torn apart by an unsuccessful career. Through diction, imagery and symbolism, Kooser conveys the damaging lasting effects of abandonment and failure. Neglect and failure to fulfill one’s expectations can lead to disappointment.
As I approach the house, I smell the old musty smell of the house. When I step on the front steps of the house, I hear a creak from underneath the floorboards. With every step, it seems like the creaking gets louder. I rap my hands around the dusty door handle and slowly pull open the unlocked door. The inside looks like what you’d expect.
