What makes me come alive!!!

What makes me come alive is my passion for Golf.  I started playing golf when I was four years old.  Throughout my life I have won over fifteen golf tournaments, played against some of the best golfers in the state, played on my high school golf team for five years, and was the Captain for the team and MVP.  Golf is my passion and makes me come alive.  My whole personality changes when I step onto the course and get into my element.  I also get away from all my problems when I get on the course.  I always enjoy the peace and quite I get while I am on the course.  Golf has been probably the biggest part of my young life and I am so happy I got into golf.

"I have a dream"

                 The speech Martin Luther King Jr. gave was probably the most influential speeches in the history of the United States.  This country has benefited greatly from his courage to stand up in front of the nation and fight for what was right.  For us in the Emerging Leaders program we need to have this skill to stand up for what we believe in and for what we know is right.  His leadership shows how just one person can bring together a whole nation and rally not just African Americans but everyone at the time.  The possibilities of the speech were endless because it could have gone in any direction.  This why MLK is such a great leader, for going into the unknown and still standing strong.  This speech was so effective because there were so many people thinking what MLK was thinking, but no one had the courage to get up and say it like he did in such a non violent way.
