If all the people you loved were taken away from you forever, what would you do? What would you do to keep those memories alive? It was about 6 a.m when the smell of burnt toast filled my room.

differences. I do believe people should not take life for granted, because we all have one life, and if we mess it up then that’s it. Some people don’t know the value of life, until it flashes before their eyes, just like Lance Armstrong did. In “It’s Not About the Bike: My Jouney Back to Life” by Lance...

because I thought it was pretty interesting how Duncan tells us not that you can't tell a book by its cover. From him saying this I compare it to Macbeth.

achieve than receive. By this I mean, to go out and help others will do far more for yourself than to actually have everything self-centered towards you.
