My life's tone

 I think that my life's tone has changed over the years. It would have started as a happy, bright place. This was through my childhood with many great things happening and many opportunities ahead of me. This later would change though after leaving the military. After my medical separation life began to come down around me. I had many challenges ahead and struggled with mental issue more than I can begin to explain. From losing ones that I loved, to to overbearing pride that kept me from getting help, it all took a dark turn. I am happy to say now though that my life's tone is back on the up. I am very happy where I am at and I believe this shows in everyday life. I was able to get the proper help, overcome the challenges I was facing both mentally and physically, and surround myself with true friendship again. I think that our tone in life constantly changes though because bad things happen and we fight to secure happiness again. We just have to remember to keep pushing and always find a way out.

    Thank you for sharing your story with us. Going through what you went through and being able to find happiness again and share with others, shows bravery and that you are rebuilding your life back to the happiness, you once enjoyed. I agree with the part, you talked about how in life our ton changes because different things in life happens. I can definitely understand that. Life i not just full of happiness and joy. We face death and sadness, and anger too. Great blog post!

 "A Doll's House" was set in 1879, In the 1800's women were not treated the best. They really had no rights and were considered only to be home makers. They did not work unless it was on the farm with the spouse, and were expected to do what they were told with no complaints. compared to modern day women that is the complete opposite. Women now have the same freedoms and liberties as a man does. They are no longer "property" and should be treated as such. Women can now vote, own weapons, work jobs, and so much more. They are not defined by their husbands or fathers like they were in the late 1800's

Post 10: The Lone Wolf

 "They say the wolf on the hill is never as hungry as the wolf climbing the hill. Always be that wolf climbing the hill. It does not matter if you have to walk alone for a while, it is much better to walk alone in the right direction, than to follow the heard going in the wrong direction." (Fearless Motivation 2017) The lone wolf is the leader, the strong, the protector of the heard. They are what holds them all together but they go through the biggest challenges and the biggest right. This is the image in my life, is the lone wolf. They may have the worst struggles, but it is because they are the only ones strong enough to handle them. While the wolf is still dangerous alone they know together they can stop anything. This is something I have always aligned myself with definitely in the military. To me the wolf is an image of struggle, strength, perseverance, and sear will to overcome. I will also link the speech that was quoted in there too, it is a great thing to listen to ...

It is a long drive to the Middle Georgia campus, but it is the road leading to Adam's dreams. He drives through the night to get to class an hour before it starts and walks up the stairs to the class room. Professor Allan comes in and gives the days lecture to the class. After class Adam walks back to his car and starts the long road back to his children. It is a task that becomes more overwhelming with time, but he keeps the thought of what the rewards will be in such a short time. This is what keeps him going through this every week.
