"A Million Lives"

A new song came out called "A Million Lives" by Jake Miller. In the song, he sings about how people have told him that he saved their lives. "It said and I quote, my name is Nikki and I used to be dancer
Til the day the doctor diagnosed me with cancer
So I said goodbye to all the hair on my head
And said hello to my hospital bed
Yeah see I was just a normal girl, it happened so fast
There were so many days that I thought would be my last
However the fight was tough, and the battle was long
But I felt strong when I listened to your songs
You were, always there for me, you helped my heart beat
You were my only friend, kept you on repeat
I thank God for you every single night
Cause believe or not, you saved my life" I connect this song to the world now. There aren't many new songs coming out today that are about saving lives or good deeds. They're more focused on money, hoes, and cars. "Inside was a journal and letter that he wrote me
It said my name is Dillon I'm in 7th grade
I'm ridiculed and picked on almost everyday
Yeah they push me in the halls in between my classes
Yesterday they took my books then broke my glasses
I got no one to talk to, its like I don't exist
Sometimes I wonder if I was gone, would I be missed? But lemme tell the real reason for this letter
You've helped me through it all, you've help me feel better
You're words gimme confidence, your messages inspire me You help me find my inner strength deep inside me
Through all the bad times, you helped me find the light
Believe or not, you saved my life." It seems like artist Jake Miller gets these letters and messages a lot. His music is inspiring to many. Especially those who may be going through a hard time.

Forgiveness

               A man that hijacks an airplace and flies it into the Pentagon, killing everyone on the plane and many military and civilian personnel on the ground should not be forgiven. If that man is twisted enough to do that, I would not forgive him. Why would you forgive someone that is purposely killing innocent people for no reason in the world? If you had sense, you wouldn't. A man that does that, is a man that deserves to be punished. The man should suffer for killing innocent people, not be forgiven.

Large, quarter-size mosquitoes to invest Florida

             
                        Have you ever gotten a big mosquito bite that annoyed the heck out of you? Well, if so, you would not want to be in Florida right now. Current.com says "If you reside in Florida or have summer vacation plans to head there, you are advised to be prepared for a potential infestation of large mosquitoes, the size of quarters." I go to Florida almost every year for a summer vacation and they're always horrible unless you're on the actual beach. Two years ago, a mosquito bite infected my entire body. They thought it was tick fever. Current.com also says "Gallinippers are 20 times larger than the ordinary mosquito and are native to the eastern half of the U.S. The insect is known to be notoriously aggressive with a vicious bite." If I ever see an army of mosquitoes the size of a quarter, I would proabably have a heart-attack.

Scared Out of My Mind

              I was sitting in the den, visiting my grandma. She goes in the kitchen to start supper and I stay in the den. I check my facebook amd I see my facebook friends writing on one of my best friend's Wall saying, "R.I.P". First, I think its a joke so I text him and ask him if he knows about it. I don't get a reply back. So, I start to freak out and obsessively call him. I didn't want to believe it was true!
              I got ahold of his cousin and his cousin told me that he had gotten in a wreck in Jonesboro and  passed away. I didn't know what else to do, but to cry my eyes out. Everyone believed that he was dead and I just couldn't believe that he was gone. Even though I saw the R.I.P. posts and he didn't reply to my phone calls and texts, it didn't feel like he was gone.
              I called his big sister and started to apologize for her loss and everything, and she told me that he wasn't dead. She told me that he had done something horrible and he had a friend tell everyone he was dead to keep people from trying to kill him for the thing they did. He called me a week later and explained.
