I am the color of my energy.
The warm amber hue glows in my eyes
The energy is a ball floating above my heart
Like the sun beaming out rays of warmth for all to enjoy
I pretend to have everything under control
But the ball bounces up and down
Gets away from me
And even changes its colors to things I am not familiar with
Long ago I was a bright yellow
Young and naive to anyone or anything that showed me a little bit of kindness
Absorbing wisdom and experience
My energy deepens
Like the richest sea of gold
I am the color of my energy.
Look closely, and you’ll see that I am much more than amber.
I am crimson reds of passion.
Bubblying vermilions of anger and frustration.
Festering purples of past pains and dismays.
Blushing pinks of the love I receive in my rose garden.
Lush blue-greens and turquoises of the forests and Highway-1 cliffs I explore.
Amber is the color of my energy.



My name is a wonder
By Katherine
Global Family School

Im a neat funny  and thoughtful person in the present time.
I feel great of my name because I have a deep feeling that feels like hope in my name and it has some sort of meaning behind it.
I pretend to be the most amazing person and dreaming I’m an Alpha in my imagination and how to help and explore places.
I was  a weird,messy little child that followed things like my toys in the dark hallways or scream and poop myself.
I chose to write the first sentence that way because that’s how I truly feel inside.
What I feel my name is that there is a voice in it saying “you can make wonders to this world
and you matter.”
I would love to be an explorer and help people who REALLY need it not just people who really need it but who want it and need it.
I want to forget when I broke my arm because that brings me pain and it make me intimidated to do anything that involves running jogging and other sports and active thong  and that slows me down from being a brave person.
The best thing that someone said to me was that “you are amazing and u deserve an amazing life that will let u change things that other people want to change” and “You’re worth it.”

Fears of Death
By Evelyn
Global Family

I am afraid of death.
I am scared of death because I might lose all the people I love and because I’ve lost a lot of people that I love.
Death is the reason Martin  Luther King isn’t here
a lot of people could’ve been alive and the world would be so beautiful.
I am afraid of ghosts and spirits because when people die they haunt you.
It feels like the world is ending you think everything you have worked for and have is gone you feel butterflies in your stomach.
I feel like if everything around me is collapsing and everybody in the world is sad and sorrow I feel like I’m falling through a black hole.
To overcome this fear of death and spirits. You can face it by thinking that everything is going to be ok if you just stay calm.
To defeat your fear of...whatever your fear is.
Is to just know that God will save you and you need to know that you don’t overcome your fear with violence but with calmness.
I see death just ending and everyone in this world would be happy in peace.
Something funny to think about when you are thinking about death is laugh about little puppies that are newborn and can barely walk and falling or making jokes.
Something that makes me feel powerful is God and my Family.

Darkness
By Katherine
Global family school

I am afraid of darkness.
It’s one of my fears because you never what could be lurking in there.
It feels like innocent souls in there screaming there pain and hiding under something so it could not get you.
To help me I would sleep with nothing and hope that nothing gets me.
Darkness will think, “Oh she/he is sleeping with nothing she/he is brave and not scared of me.”
If it doesn’t help you feel terrified on how you see it.When you look at it straight in the eye you might succeed in overcoming your fear and how it may not scare you again.
I also feel terrified but I also feel pain by how it has scared so many innocent souls but the pain goes away by thinking of something else.
By me overcoming it I shall dare mock it or stare at it until I’m not afraid.
Im defeating it by also chanting, “Darkness isn’t real”
That’s how I defeat it.
That’s my story on how I defeat darkness.
If I can’t I just laugh and say, “Your weak darkness you are defenseless.”
It makes me feel powerful by chanting a mean thing to it.
