We have been talking about different kinds of religion in the exploring the human spirit class. We have been learning about different cultures and different ways that people do things in their religion. They were all different with a small amount of similarities but we learned a lot of good life qualities and ways to succeed in life. While exploring the different kinds of religions with their different Gods, we decided that each of us is going to interview someone who is different from us in many ways. We talked about culture, religion, race,ethnicity, gender etc.

When i heard of this assignment, i was a little scared because i did not know how i was going to do it and transform it into a paper. However, i did not know that i am supposed to interview a student instead of a faculty. I prepared my answers for the professor that i was planning on doing until i found out that i am supposed to have a conversation with someone that i see everyday but do not really know things about. So i decided to interview someone that i see every day. The reason why i chose him was because i thought that he was friendly and i might be able to know him more while doing this assignment I did not think that assignment could be so interesting and i learned a lot about my friend. I am glad that i chose him and i was able to have fun while doing it too.

There are a lot of things that i did not know about people in general; with this interview, i learned a lot of things about life and they also made me realize a lot of things. You can be surprise of how many similarities that you can have with someone you see every day and not know about it. You will never know if the person thinks like you or he or she has different ways of thinking. I really enjoyed this assignment and i really hope that i get to do an assignment like that.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
