My biggest fear

                                                
   
        No matter how big we are, we all have fears. I have fears of nearly everything such as heights, the dark, death of loved ones, being alone, deep water and all reptiles. I know I sound like a little child but that's me. Failure is perhaps my biggest fear.

    My fear of failure has ruled my life. I always have a fear of disappointing my parents' expectations and those of others. When I finished high school, my parents wanted me to be a doctor. But I decided to choose my future path in information technology. I want to prove to them that I've taken the right path and made the right choice. Furthermore, I always try my best to be perfect in everything and have high standards. Because of this fear I never feel satisfied about what I accomplish.

    I have always let my fear of failure and not being good enough to control my life and to keep me from enjoying it. What I need is to believe in my self, in my capabilities and to have good thoughts as well. I'll change the thoughts of negativity and fear to those of optimism and positivity. It is impossible to please everyone. Therefore, I'll have my own expectations to fulfill.

Global warming





    There are a growing number of environmental issues. Today, global warming is the biggest and most serious problem our planet is facing. Global warming is on the rise, while it is too late to reverse its effects, we can try to minimize them.


    The impact of global warming can be reduced, only If people take the problem seriously and work together to make a difference. There are many ways of minimizing the effects of global warming. One way is to stop producing carbon dioxide, which is the main contributor to global warming.  Another is to stop destroying rain forests, which are responsible for absorbing carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere and release clean oxygen. A third way is using alternative sources of energy.


    Unfortunately, getting people to change their habits is not an easy thing to do. Many people don't seem to care about the environment. Others don't want to stop using oil and coal as they are cheaper. Farmers continue cutting down trees of the forests. Not body is ready to save power.


    Global warming is a major environmental issue. Simple changes in your daily habits and lifestyle can lead to serious energy savings. However, if we continue destroying the environment, the next generations will suffer the consequences and life on earth will be endangered.
