Have you ever been around the world in one night? Obviously, not a lot of people are able to travel the globe throughout their lives, let alone in one night, but students at Terryville High School managed to become world travelers in their very own school walls.

She was a child with a naive mind. A little girl who saw no cruelty. Didn’t suspect bad in a single soul. Trusted everyone she’d meet. She was nine years old, still a kid. She was picked on by older girls. She was scared and cried every day. But she still had faith in the world. In fifth grade, she was more grown up. She crawled back up the social rope. Her teacher…

He told me, tan hands wrapping around mine, that “the sun and the moon are one in perfect balance.

When I first met him I was happy, I defined myself as content in the eyes of myself and others, I was content. I will say honestly that my life without him would not have changed drastically but he changed me, I was breathing before him, blinking, I was living before him. I don’t want to be the type of person to claim indifference, in fact I’m minimalist, without the desperate need for people like…
