TOUGH DECiSiON

Well a couple friends and I had to go to the mall one day. But one of my friends had to be at home at a certain time.So we walk over to the light rail, and we're about to get our lightrail ticket, all of a sudden our lightrail pulls up. So we thought ok we gotta go because my friend had to be home at a certain time, so we just got on the lightrail without paying. I don't think it was that bad of a decision because I had a good reason.But now that I think about it I guess I did go against my religion (stealing) and my society.


Forgive me Lord!

WOMEN WRITERS

I don't think theres much of a difference between men and women writers. Its mostly about their own individual styles. There is some women who make other women to be sensitive, and men make them as to be more superior then women sometimes. But there is still some men and women who make there sex to be more superior than the other.
