My Favorite Place: Destin, Florida

Destin is one of the most beautiful beaches I've been to. The water is turquoise blue, and the sand is a deep white and super soft. As you look farther into the ocean, the blue deepens and blends with the sky, creating a beautiful landscape. Every other year I visit there with my family and every time I go I am blown away of just how beautiful it is. I also like the fact that the beaches are not as crowded as nearby Panama City. I plan to take a trip there after I graduate!

I like to read, the most recent books that I read were "Beyond Good and Evil" by Friedrich Nietzsche, "The Alchemist" by Paulo Cohelo, and "Norse Mythology" by Neil ...

Week 2 Story: The Hare in the Moon

Source: Rabbit in the Moon . The Hare in the Moon And it came to pass the Buddha was born a Hare and lived in the woods. With him lived many friends, and he taught those friends–animals and humans alike–many wise things: that the moral law should be observed–that alms should be given to the poor–and that holy days should be kept. One day the Buddha said: "Tomorrow is a fast day. Feed any beggars that come to you by giving from your own store of food." They all consented. An old friend and Cheesemaker came to Buddha. "I have nothing to give, oh wise Hare. For I have nothing to myself. My goats and cattle ran out of good grass in my fenced fields, and I cannot let them out because a Tiger has been taking them. My animals are starving, and I cannot make any cheese."  The Hare, thinking in contemplation on the Kusha Grass said "bring them here. I shall feed them my own grass and protect them." To which the Cheesemaker replied, "oh great Har...
