Topic Ideas of “This I Believe:”
I’m not really sure where I want to go yet with my statement, but I do have two topics that I think are good. The first: finding where your “home” is, even if it isn’t a specific house or place. The second: taking the time to slow down and enjoy the little things that life brings you.
Passion Blog:
I think that it’s time to start a new topic for my passion blog. My last blog was little boring and kind of dumb (I think that’s what I’m looking to say?) and not really an engaging topic. For this new passion blog, I kind of want to model after the writer who does Humans of New York. I think it would be interesting to talk to a multitude of Penn State students and share a little piece of who they are.
Civic Issues:
Two issues that I could see myself looking further into and writing about U.S. foreign policy, especially with Russia at the moment, and LGBTQ rights in the United States.
My words do not bring affection to those who suffer for love. Yours do not bring food from Mcdonald’s menu to those who are hungry. We write to disguise and sublimate our own failures and impotence, but mainly to try to feed at least the soul and disturb the spirit of someone so that they can see their ‘beyonds’.
While it is true that many people simply can’t afford to pay more for food, either in money or time or both, many more of us can. After all, just in the last decade or two we’ve somehow found the time in the day to spend several hours on the internet and the money in the budget not only to pay for broadband service, but to cover a second phone bill and a new monthly bill for television, formerly free. For the majority of Americans, spending more for better food is less a matter of ability than priority.
