My Experience At The Bethlehem Center

Life lessons: a personal story contributed by an up-and-coming young writer.

It all begins on Thursday September 11. I was sitting on the school bus. When Brittney got on the bus, well to make a long story short we started fighting and we all got expelled. Now I知 at the Bethlehem Center helping out.

While I was at the center I learned a lot of things. I learned that it takes the bigger person to walk away. I learned that if I want to make it in life I will have to learn how to ignore people. The most important thing I learned is that the way you act is the, same way people are going to look at you!

My experience at the Center was, that many people who act up, who end up in jail and who never finish school, are the same people who don稚 have jobs, who need to come to the center for food and help for their rent. And I know one thing is for sure that I do not ever in my life want to be one of those people. And I hope that the Lord blesses me where I won稚 be like that. I know that I don稚 want to be like all these people with messed up lives, so I知 going to straighten up.

I have plans for the future, (if I live to see them) and I知 not going to let anybody stand in my way or try to stop me. Because I know I can be whatever I want to be, and if I work hard at it I値l be where I want to be. I am very sorry for what I did and to prove this to people I知 going to change my life around. Starting, by choosing the right people to hang around with.

I really hope you liked my story. Because this is just the beginning of it I知 going to be a famous writer one-day. I really hope you learned a valuable lesson by reading my story. Because I learn a lovely lesson from my family, especially my mom, Mrs. Wiggs, Mrs. Monica, Mrs. Gordon, Mrs. Sarah, and, Mrs. lee. And I just want to say thank you all for what you did for me. And I just want you to know that when you think I知 not listening, I am. Like now!

Love,
B.J.
