Experiences in our lives, good or bad, make us into the people we are today. If it were not for those experiences, we would not have the knowledge and understanding that helps us get through our current troubles and celebrations. Like everyone, I’ve had experiences in my life that have changed the way I view things, and people for that matter. Three experiences I’ve been through involve; owning a pet, seeing the aftermath of a hurricane, and dealing with a fractured wrist. All of these things altered my perspective on certain topics, in ways it wouldn’t have if I hadn’t gone through such experiences.
Owning an animal was something that really changed my normal day routine. I had to revolve around my pets’ schedule, and gradually learn over time what was best in caring for my two guinea pigs. Owning my pets taught me a sense of responsibility and patience. I’ve never had another living thing rely on me before, and they had to gradually get accustomed to me, which took some time, but paid off, in the end. In a sense, owning one of nature’s creatures taught me two very valuable life lessons.
You never know what you had until it’s gone. Popular words often associated with losing a loved one, or possibly possessions. I didn’t know the full meaning of these words until I visited my aunt and her family in New Orleans, Louisiana, after hurricane Katrina. Luckily, I didn’t personally lose anything precious to me, but seeing family members in that state was close enough. I saw how they had lost their house, and ended up living in a very small, cramped trailer parked in what once was their driveway. Knowing the house I live in, and even the bed I sleep in, was still in the same place it was when I left it, made me feel grateful and appreciate the fact that nothing like that had ever happened to me.
Having a broken, fractured, or even a sprained bone is no fun. Especially, the distasteful time I fractured my wrist. My mother, sister, and I were all lying in my mother’s room watching television. I had decided to leave, and in the process, fell backwards over my sister’s shoes thrown recklessly over the floor. My wrist had pressed against the dresser, causing it to painfully pop. A little less than a week later, I was on my way back home from Emergency care, solemnly holding the casted, fractured wrist. Even though this experience wasn’t so appealing to me, it actually gave me reason to put up my stuff. This led to organization, and eventually, a cleaner room. What more could you ask for?
In conclusion, whether the situation was something you could favorably look back on, or even deem displeasing, you have most likely learned something from it...
Yeah, I has no title, and the conclusion is stumping me. /dies from exhaustion.

...
I like...
love that. o.o'
Dayum gurl. I think it's perfect. However if you need to ad more meat to the conclusion I'd recommend adding about how life can be drastically modified from thiose kinds of experiances. Think about it, if you hadn't fractured your wrist, you probably wouldn't have started organizing your things more. Ya know? c:

The red is what i would add or change, and the strikes are what i would take out or replace.... This is just me, do what you want.  Experiences in our lives, good or bad, make us into the people we are today. If it were not for those experiences, we would not have the knowledge and understanding that helps (to help?) us get through our current troubles and (triumphs?) celebrations. Like everyone, I’ve had experiences in my life that have changed the way I view things; and people for that matter. Three experiences I’ve been through involve; owning a pet, seeing the aftermath of a hurricane, and dealing with a fractured wrist. All of these things altered my perspective on certain topics, in ways it wouldn’t have if I hadn’t gone through such experiences. (changing the way that I viewed them. I never would have seen things the way I do now had I not had those experiences.)?Owning an animal was something that really changed my normal day daily routine. I t now had to revolve around my pets’ schedule rather than my own. And gradually I learn ed over time what was best in caring for each my two guinea pigs.

In a sense, owning one of nature’s creatures taught me two very valuable life lessons. (What were those two lessons? Restate them.)Another valuable lesson that was taught to me was one of thankfulness.

Though it is not as horrible as losing your home, and it heals far faster, physical wounds can teach lessons as well. Having a broken, or fractured bone, or even a sprained bone is no fun. Especially, when it happens at a bad time, such as when I fractured my wrist. the distasteful time I fractured my wrist.

In conclusion, whether the situation was something you could favorably look back on, or even deem displeasing, you have most likely learned something from it... Even the saddest things in our lives can teach us if we look at them the right way, There is an adage that says that every cloud has a silver lining, and in a way that is true. No matter what happens, there is always something that we can learn from it.
