Bowling / Metaphor

I am…
I am a tree.
I am a tree because sometimes trees like to bend and go the other direction. I feel like I am kind of like a tree because I curve around stuff a lot of the times. I love to curve around a mess and not help out other things and situations. I feel like my life keeps going around instead of helping thing out. If my friends go through tuff stuff I just curve around it so that I don’t ave to deal with the mess, instead of helping my friends to have a better relationship. I think that curving is not really a good thing because you don’t to keep avoiding things you want to help people out in there struggles. Curving can be a good thing because sometimes people just want you to not help or if you do help you might get in trouble. I have gone in to help someone and just got distracted and got in trouble because I followed what they did. So in that case curving would have been a goo thing.

Another way I am a tree is because when you look at at a tree you see leaves. Leaves do help you breath better and clean the air. So in other words a try is a helpful thing in our lives. I feel like this fits me because when someone is having a pretty terrible day I just come on in spruce up there day a little. Maybe crack a joke or invite them to come play outside and pay football, or soccer, or anything that will make them for get about what was happening and have fun. For example I rember when a good friend of mine heard some bad news about his grandma so I went up to him and talked about football and everything he loved to do. He completely forgot bout his grandma while we were playing catch and then video games and then a bored game. He felt all good for a hour or two but hey you know taking to hours off thinking about your grandma is really good thing. I love making people love there life and it is fun to see that in my life when I make someones day.

The third way I am like a tree because the leaves on a tree blow all around in the wind so I am like the blowing of leaves on a tree because sometimes in my faith it feels like I am about to fall off of the tree by the wind. For example sometimes it feels like I am not very close to god and feel like I am just flying around not knowing where to go. I am not attached to the tree if the tree is God then I do not feel safe. “ Looking up he saw the big green leaves blowing in the wind, and he was amazed.” He was amazed at God’s creation and how he made leaves an how they don’t fall off so quick. So God likes to keep me hanging free but he wants me to find him so I can get closer to him. Its almost as if the wind stopped and I could rest with him.

The last way I am a tree is because trees as they get older and bigger. As they get bigger and older there roots have to get bigger and go deeper into the ground so that t can hold the weight and mass of the big tall tree. I feel like roots are me and the ground is God then I want to keep getting closer and have a better relationship with him. Roots are the main part of a tree even tho u don’t see it from on top of the ground. I feel like thats me and I want to get closer to God and know more about him. This is the last way that I am a tree.

Yesterday on November 12 we as 8th graders went for a fall break kind of. I did terrible but we had fun we did a bunch of funny things to just have fun and not care much. We kind of owned the joint so it was really fun. We were all really crazy tho but that is kind of a normal thing for our class.
