Transforms Dreams into Visions and leads to Success

"And, when you want something,
The entire Universe Conspires in
Helping you to achieve it.”
Paulo Coelho (The Alchemist)
I wanted to start my blog with this wonderful quote of Mr. Coelho. This is not merely some ordinary phrase from the book “The Alchemist” but the truth of life. After finding an invitation from Phi Theta Kappa in my email, I felt the same that universe is conspiring in helping me to achieve my goal to be an attorney. From childhood, I was a dreamer, but was unaware of the process to transform my dreams into my reality. I even did not know about the fact that in between a dream and reality there is a one more step called Vision.

As I grew older, my dreams were also growing along with me. I am a girl who belongs to Indian Ethnicity and I was educated in my home country. I came to LaGuardia one year back. I always wanted to be a Lawyer because Law keeps on pulling me towards its and I fell in love with my future profession. So, I started pursuing my AAS in Paralegal Studies. One day, I found out about the PTK (Honors Society) and from that day on, I decided to be a part of PTK. PTK is my platform to transform my dreams into visions and my visions will become possible because PTK will support me financially with its tremendous scholarships.

PTK has so many scholarships and gives us incentives to keep us active in volunteering and ultimately it will look good on resume which is going to benefit us in the future. PTK not only provides this but may take us to the valuable conferences which will enhance our knowledge and for the nerds like me; this is a ‘cherry on the cake’. Law schools these days not only demands money but also recommendations, volunteering for some events and participation in the research projects too. PTK has so many opportunities for the fulfillment of those demands and requirements.

At the end, I want to say that my visions are clear and I am seeing myself to be in a right place in order to be successful. My journey for PTK is just beginning and it has already made me a blogger and I am waiting for more magic. I want to conclude my blog with the verses of famous poem “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost:

"The Woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep."

Morality?

By Anonymous -
By Luis K. Feliz Friedrick Nietzsche observes that “morality is the herd-instinct in the individual.” On the other hand, Alfred North Whitehead maintains that “what is morality in any given time or place? It is what the majority then and there happen to like, and immorality is what they dislike.” You should see these quotes as points of departure or teasers to goad your ideas. You don’t need to respond to the quotes above, simply express your opinion on the following questions: 1) What is morality? Where or how did you learn to be a moral human being? 2) Does the definition of morality change over time? 3) What is your definition of morality?

Art and Propaganda

By Anonymous -
By Luis Feliz The following quote is from the essay “Why I Write” by George Orwell: “What I have most wanted to do throughout the past ten years is to make political writing into an art. My starting point is always a feeling of partisanship, a sense of injustice. When I sit down to write a book, I do not say to myself, ‘I am going to produce a work of art.’ I write because there is some lie that I want to expose, some fact to which I want to draw attention, my initial concern is to get a hearing.” Is the function of literature “to get a hearing?” Please share your thoughts by posting your comments below and don't forget to write your name when you posts your response.

by Djene Keita, This is my reflection on one of the study questions about" Language and Communication" in the Honors Study Guide.  The Human species develops language to communicate and express thoughts. Among the many ways of communicating such as body language, spoken language is  singularly used by the humans and, that has distinguished our specie from other species living on the earth. The emergence of technology in the 17th century and its ongoing evolution has significantly improved our lifes and the figure of the world.  Thanks to technology, a huge progress has been made in different aspects of life. The creation of Internet, Television, Cell phones, etc… has brought convenience and added luxury to our life style.
