Almost drowning. I was 7 years old and defiant. My mother warned that the waves could pull me out but I didn't want to listen so I swam out far and by the time I realized I couldn't reach the bottom with my feet a large wave went right over my head. In shock at it I breathed in a large gasp of ocean water and frantically moved to the surface where my father was dragging me back to shore. All the while I coughed up the water and cried. Swimming out too far was an awful choice that I didn't understand the consequences of since I was very young.

Please help!!! I need someone, to be honest, to answer those question
belka [17]

Answer:

1. I show people I'm trust worthy by looking at them in there eyes and promising that I would never let a secret or anything trust worthy break my promise.

2. I feel mistreated and just shameful because I'd blame my own personality and insecurities to be the reason why that person disrespects me.

3. A time I found it hard to be fair with someone is whether I'm defending my brother or a friend. I just snippy think that I stand up for my brother more.

4.Good Citizenship that I have seen in my community was actually today. My Grandmother's fire alarm went off today while I was in the building and all the neighbors checked on eachother to make sure everyone's ok.

5. I show other people I respect them by agreeing to them in subjects that I also believe in. I respect them by being polite.

6. I think the only way you can truly see if someone cares for you, is if you put thin through hell. If you talk about really meaningful things going on in you're life and you see that person responding with Advice and care, I'd really appreciate it and think that they really do care about me and my problems. They don't shrug off any questions or beat around the bush. They always ask how ur doing and Always check up on you to see if you took there advice. But maybe I'm wrong. That's just what I feel and think when I saw the question.

7. Honestly I get into lots of arguments with lots of people. I've just learned to not care and just don't listen and I think that's really helped me with my Self Control.

8. Uhm something that I've had trouble persevering through is the death of my grandfather this past may. I talk a lot about my grandfather but sometimes and everytime I get into this type of question it bothers me because I cried all day and night and was truly lost. I did not want to do anything. I wasn't sure how to "move on" as everyone days when they lose someone. I just didn't want to do anything. Didn't want to see anything. And you know the rest. I guess this isn't a good answer to you're question because in the end I did kinda persevere and I did it only because I had a dream of him about a week or 2 after he died and he sayed "don't cry, I'm ok". That really helped me out and I just want to give him the rest of the world that we have left.

I hope I helped you . Good luck.
