My wife and I have noticed many changes in our daughter, Maya, over the past 5 months. Babies seem to change every day, not only in their appearance, but also in their abilities and mannerisms. I was thinking that we must change a lot more as babies, and less and less as we get older. However, then I realized that changes are not just physical changes that we can see in our appearance. Changes also occur in our personality, habits, ideas, and thinking. These types of changes are happening all the time. Sometimes they are things that we are trying to change on purpose and other times they seem to change on their own, sometimes without us even realizing it.
As I think about some changes that have happened in my life recently I would like you to do the same and then evaluate whether or not the changes occurring are "moving you in the right direction" (good changes) or "pushing you down a path you'd rather not go" (changes for the worse).
Recently, my life has changed drastically in that I have become a father. This is most definitely a good change, although not always an easy change. I have more responsibilities and less freedom, but I get to watch and guide the growth of a child. My life has also changed and become more busy, and with that comes stress. This is a change that I am not so excited about. I would like to get better at dealing with stress so that I don't become angry with those around me. I am also trying to remember that relationships (people) are more important than "doing things". This is a change I am hoping to make in the way that I think.

Hi! Ok so some changes that have recently happened to me were meeting a boy named Jordy. He has changed somethings in my life for example I get along with my mom more, we talk more, Jordy also brought someone out in me. He brought out the real me, because I used to be really shy and and ever since I met him I stopped being shy! Another change in my life was when I first stared going to Gresham High School because I didn't know everyone. I was new to the school and I was kind of shy because I didn't want to be alone and I was scared of what people were going to think about me. Well those are the only changes that i have had in my life so far. I hope to find more and more changes in my life because sometimes they're for the good!
Well the changes that Im doin are cuz my mom and my girl are checking on me. Thats the only reason why Im try to do good in school and out side of school. What i would like to change about my life is ummmmm nothing .Oh wait to try to pay attention in class because i get distracted to fast oh and I need to try to stop skipping school. Wait a change that i need to make is to have good attendance, get a job, and try to stay home a little more because i aint at home that much no more.
people change a lot. they change siezes like me in 1st grade i was a little girl. when i look back i look way bigger then i was. when i was little i use to be be fat. and now i look different.i go though good changes and so do other people. there are some changes that i want there to be like not getting fatter or staying the same. they way i look now and never changes. but there has to be changes thats the way that our body works.

The changes that I'm going through is that I'm doing my homework more then I use to, and that I'm going to school and not skipping. I'm also getting better grades then I did when I was in 6th and 7th grade. I also pay attention in all my classes and I'm actually on time and not late to classes. I've also changed by the way i act in front of teachers.
I want to change by doing my homework and work in school. I want to go to college and stop getting trouble. I want to do everything for my girl veronica that will make her happy and not make her mad. What i want to change in my life is get a good job.
Some things that i been noticing are that i been doing better in school this year. i've also noticed that my perants trust me more then last year. what i want to change in my life is get a job and have more fun.
changes well there are millions of stories any one can say the ones that are noticed are the ones not thinked about. I've have never noticed how i have changed because i change a lot. one second I'm me the next I'm trapped in i cell. good well I'm getting there step by step I'll get there. junior high impacted my life really bad and really good.mastakes meat more than just lunch detentions it leads to who you are and want to be in you life and others.
Well some changes happening in my life are that I am getting lots of homework and that being in 10th grade is not as fun as it looks. I am also helping more at home by cleaning up and helping my sister with homework. Now that I am 15 years old I have more responsibilities and less free time which is not fun. One thing I would change in my life is to have more time to do things that I like to do. All these changes in my life are good because these changes are helping me to become a better person and to be more responsible. Also all these changes have showed me that life can be hard but you always have to make it the best you can.
Starting this school was really had for me because i had forgotten all the work that i had done so far! But my teachers helped me a little bit naw i have harder classes it`s hard for me too keep up with everything thats going on in my life right naw.All this stuff that just poped up that i wish that never did happened that really made me made but i`m trying so had to get over it i`m geting some help with my family it`s mostly about ex-boyfriend stuff.
