Sore Loser -- Prompt 34

I thought the article about Arelia M. Taveras with her gambling problems was messed up. She can't blame her trouble on casinos. She's to blame for her doleful fate.
I think she has no right to sue the casino at all. It's not their business if she wants to gamble for four or five straight days without sleeping. They don't care. Infact, the casinos are benifitting from it anyways.
Personal responsibility ends with herself. It's not the casinos' duty to take care of her and mind about her help problems that she didn't sleep at all. It's not their problem. She was suppose to be responsible for herself and should have controlled her gambling habits.
The advice that I would like to give Arelia Taveras is that she stop gambling or else she has to learn to control herself. I would like to tell her that everyone is responsible for themselves and their own life and problem.

Welcome Back Friends -- Prompt 33

I was on Mission trip the past three weeks and it was an awesome experience.I had also grew spiritually which is a very good thing. I didn't wanted to go the first time but now I don't regret going to Nicaragua at all. I had tons of fun there even though we had to edit our sermons almost every single day. It was a great blessing to actually be able to share the gospel with the people in Nicaragua knowing that you must do your best because they might not hear it ever again. Being up there in front of all those people was very scary. The people there was sweet, caring, and very humble. I fell deeply in love with Nicaragua and the people there. I miss Nicaragua and I was glad I went. On this mission trip, I learnt that there are actually thousands of people out there who wants to know more about God and get closer to Him. I also learnt that mission trips are amazing!
