Random violence



Work hard, study hard, be good hearted, good comes to you. You succeed in society and go to Heaven. That is the ideals of Protestants, and to me, is just common sense. You work hard, you succeed. That isn't true so much anymore. Innocent people are getting gunned down on a daily basis now. I come home from school today and see that to college students were shot to death in the East Coast. The Police aren't sure if the shootings are related, and now to young women, educating themselves to better the world, are dead. Eve Carson, pictured to the left, was the student body president at UNC. Lauren Burke, not pictured, was at student at Auburn University. I have to be honest, my head turns everything I hear something when I walk on the street. My eyes and ears are open constantly, wondering if I will make it home. The world is a different place then when my father was my age. But I am determined to not let it affect me. I promise I will succeed and better myself and others.
