Prompt: Describe a time when someone’s words had a lasting impact on you.

 Last year, my English teacher told me, “Your voice matters more than you realize.” At first, I didn’t think much of it, but those words stuck with me. I’ve always been a quiet person, thinking my ideas weren’t important enough to share. Her encouragement gave me the confidence to speak up in class and even join the debate team. Now, I see how sharing my thoughts can make a difference. Her words reminded me that even small voices can create big changes. 

Today for our virtual assignment we did chapter questions.

  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.
