Currently it is feburary and most people in my life are having the winter blues and seeing these people everyday has caused me to feel some what blue. But after a pointless day coming home to my parents cheer is what keeps going when my friends and family are down.

all these kids are icebergs
[This one is from a set of 300 Common Core aligned writing prompts that I put together.]](http://24.media.tumblr.com/90f96ac3e172a8c2304ffa6599c10e9b/tumblr_mi2wqfhYP91qee12to1_1280.png)
I believe that kids and even adults are like icebergs they hid to much of themselfs to fit in even if it evolves changing who they are. I try to show who i really am i do not try to hid who i am. Most of my friends are the same they are not afraid to show who they are inside. Same goes with my family they do not keep secrets from me they tell me the reasons behind their actions if asked. As for my teachers i believe they tell me and my class as much as they need to know about themselfs, but as with all of these people including my self do hid some opinions and beliefs do to them being scared of how other people with react mostly in the teen age group. So overall i think that the prompt kids are like icebergs you can only see the top is very dead on with most kids.
Hi Jordon,
ReplyDeleteI really like your strong voice and sense of honesty in your writing! It is really difficult for most people to show others their true self and what is "inside." I think that as we grow in confidence (and experience) we tend to allow others in more often - only then can we grow and develop in ways that we need. Thanks for your insights!
