More cases of Ebola.

Sadly, there are more cases of Ebola here in America. A nurse taking care of a patient in Texas caught this terrible disease.  Her name is Nina Pham. She caught this from taking care of Eric Duncan. Tragically, he died. Another nurse, Amber Vinson,  also caught this horrible virus. We should pray for the people in America and in Western Africa with Ebola. Let's pray that God can heal them and that God can protect the people taking care of them.

      I think it was strange that it took them so long to give the experimental drug to Eric Duncan. I think that racism may have been behind. I think that was strange because the other Ebola patients received the experimental drug quickly. What do you think?

Debate, have you ever wanted to do debate?

Hello fellow Wonder Teens. Have you ever thought about doing debate? This is my second year of debate with NCFCA, It has been a wonderful experience. If you are a novice and this is your first year of debate. I encourage you to hang in there. I only won one debate out of twelve my first. You are going to lose a lot but you must keep on going. Debate has taught me the lessons of the true meaning of success and perseverance. It has made me a better me. I an so grateful to all the people who were there to help me and guide. As a novice you will have people who encourage and give you the strength to keep on going even when you are months behind in research. Remember to keep on going. :) Never Give up.

The True Meaning of Sucess

The True Meaning of Success

By:Anonymous

I believe that success isn't always winning. People who don’t constantly win can be successful.  The world’s definition of success might be having it all: money, fame, or winning a gold medal at the Olympics. But even people who win awards, have millions, and are famous don’t always feel successful and content.

I learned the true meaning of success after a speech and debate tournament. After debating, timing, and giving speeches for three days straight, my brother and I were exhausted. We were reading our ballots in the car, when we discovered we didn’t win a single debate. At first I was really depressed about it. We had worked hard. We thought we would win at least one debate. We had done hours of research and practice. I even debated quitting debate. My mother said that even if I didn’t win I learned and I did a good job.  After all the research I knew  a ton about United States of America’s voting system.

But later at one of the speech and debate meetings, one of the parents spoke about success. She said true success was learning and pleasing God with your actions. She also said that those who do win are not necessarily successful.  Success is not defined by winning or losing.  I also heard something similar from my mother and other people. This was very encouraging.

Surprisingly, I am glad that I did not win. I learned a valuable lesson about success. It is not the trophies on your mantel that indicate your success.  It is not how many zeroes you can write on a check. It is what you learned and trying your very best. I learned also that I must persevere even when I do not win. I believe success isn’t defined by trophies. It is defined by perseverance, a great attitude, and growth. This is the true meaning of success. This I believe.

Remembering 9/11

This September 11, 2014 is the anniversary of 9/11. Although  I do not remember 9/11, I know it happened. It was a dark day in our history. That day when the twin towers crashed.  It showed how evil men can become. It was  a day that we should and never forget. We must always remember. The people that were lost. The chaos of that day was magnificent. Many people were injured. We must me vigilante so that something like that will never happen again.

Teenager shot by Police Officer

Sadly,an innocent teen, Michael Brown, was shot by a police officer In Ferguson, Missouri . There is an ongoing investigation with this case. If you have recently seen the news you probably know a bit about this case. What do you think? Some believe that this was a hate crime. I think that is a hate crime seeing as the officer was white and the teenager was African-american. What do you think? Due to this many people have been protesting. Although  the protesters during the day were peaceful. Riots began at night and the police shot tear gas into the crowd. Some people in the crowd were even arrested. But the main point about this case should be the search for justice. The investigators need to get down to the truth so that there will be justice.What do you think about this case.
