Write about something that you believed as a child.

 When I was a child, I believed that the moon followed me wherever I went. I thought it was my personal guardian in the sky, watching over me and lighting my way. No matter how far I traveled, the moon always seemed to stay right outside my window. As I grew older, I learned about how distance and perspective create this illusion, but it didn’t feel as magical. Even now, I sometimes look up at the moon and remember how comforting that belief was.

Today we took a benchmark.

I think I did real good.

Accepting this truth was difficult, but it ultimately brought me peace and a stronger sense of self. Reflect: Today we did a NewsELA. Summary: I actually have already completed the NewsELA.

  Near-death experiences (NDEs) are fascinating because they make me wonder if there’s something beyond this life. Some people describe bright lights, feelings of peace, or even seeing loved ones who have passed away, which sounds spiritual. Scientists, though, say these experiences might just be the brain reacting to trauma, like a flood of chemicals creating hallucinations. I think there could be truth in both views—maybe NDEs are our minds trying to make sense of something we don’t fully understand. If they are real, they could mean there’s an afterlife, which is both comforting and a little scary. Either way, NDEs remind me how mysterious life and death really are.
