Valentine's Day

February 14 is the day of Valentine's Day. On this day everyone likes to celebrate it as a gift giving holiday and its the day full of love. The most common gift that people give each other are roses and chocolate, but I don't really think that people know the real reason why we have a Valentine's Day and the real meaning behind it. The name "Valentine" came from a Christian martyrs and was established by Pope Gelasius. This holiday was meant for showing affection to your loved ones and significant other.

Animal Rescue

     Abusing and neglecting an animal is by far the worst thing you can do to an animal. Everyone has a voice and it's your choice to let it be heard or to continue to stand back and watch this negative things happen to a poor innocent animal. I don't understand way anybody would want to hurt and abuse an innocent animal! The abusers think that it's just an animal and that they don't have any feelings, but they're wrong.Every animal wants to feel loved and accepted, but when owners abuse them and use them it makes the animal afraid and lonely. For example, when people breed dogs, Pit Bulls to be specific, they train them to be fighting dogs and when dogs are brought up around that kind of environment that is all they know. When dogs are bred to fight and they end up getting rescued, they are less likely to be adopted and they end up having to be put to sleep, so when these dogs have to be put to sleep they don't have any chance to have the love that a lot of dogs have.

Paint the Sky by Tara Anderson

Waking up to the glorious multi-colors in the dark gray sky.
Looking far and beyond from what you can see outside your wide window.
The big clouds soak in the sun's heat while the rest of life stands back to watch.

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words

A ladder could be just a ladder. When you think of a ladder, would you think of build or construct? To someone else a ladder could lead you to a whole other world. To a small child the ladder is leading them into that HUGE, tall adobe building they have been longing to see, what's inside. Finally taking those first steps down into the unknown. Then stepping onto the warm dirt with their bare feet. Waiting so patiently for something exciting to happen. For someone who is older the ladder is leading them into the unknown descents of their people. Knowing everyday is a day to learn.
