I wear the mask that laughs and smiles,
But it hides my real face,
That is an unfare disgrace.
Inside I am angry and torn
And I yell to my love I am worn.
He makes me wear the mask.
He is estatic but I am not,
I feel as if I have been bought.
He makes me wear the mask.
Someday I will break away,
To a land and will be born.
Until then I wear the mask.

What St. Patrick's Day Means to Me...
Every St. Patrick's Day a little church in Sydney, AR has a parade that my family always helps with. I have been going and helping build the float and ride on the float the church makes ever since I was little. They always like when I come so that they can have a young person on the float.
Mostly elderly women and men go there so they have seen me grow up and they are like my family. Everyone there is important to me. The ladies are especially nice, but isn't every elderly lady nice? I think so.
The parade has always been a tradition and in someway is a part of my childhood.

Call of the Wild book review...
Harsh, Brutal, and Strong, Jack London's Call of the Wild, captured my interest in his tale of Buck and the harsh Alaskan sled dog life.
In this book, a dog named Buck will have to test his strength and courage. This book teaches you that you can survive tough conditions, even when sometimes you want to lie down and quit. The book is saying that when there is no hope you still have to be strong.
Buck is the main character and at the beginning of the book he is not sure what is going on. He does not really know how to adjust to this weird climate and conditions. Along the way he finds himself and who he really is as a dog.
Buck is an ordinary dog until one day when his master's gardener traded him to some strange men. These men were looking for gold and they needed Buck to be a sled dog. Buck was once a house dog, but now he has to adjust to the harsh Alaskan climate and become a tough sled dog. He has to gain his new senses and fight for his survival. Along the way, he will encounter wolves, crazy men that beat him, and even some vicious dogs that try to kill him.
I recommend this book to anyone who likes an adventure. This book is interesting and has a good moral.

Characteristics of a Winner
People can consider winners to be the people that beat everyone else or the people that get the most out of what they are doing. What do you think? I think winners are the people that do their best all of the time no matter what.
Sometimes the people that we think our winners are the people that strive over everyone and are the best. Usually these people are stuck up, rude, arrogant, and even hateful. They are just winning for the glory of themselves and not for the glory of God. When those types of winners lose they are definitely sore losers, so that makes everyone else not like them. Even though they are winning everything, I would not want to be this type of a winner.
They other types of winners are sweet, respectful, good doers, and kind. Even though they might not be magnificent at everything, they still have a good heart. They strive to do their best even though their best is sometimes not good enough. These people are truly winners because they have a smile on their face and they feel good about themselves.
Neither of these winners are bad people. One is just nicer and more content than the other. What kind of winner are you?
