Journey

By

Kaitlyn Walsh

Student of Averill Park -Freshman

Stepping into the halls of a new place

realizing this is where you will spend the next few years of your life;

preparing yourself for your journey through the future

a part of high school is being involved in sports,

making yourself a part of the school;

a true warrior.

So much to deal with and stress put on you

the point in your life where drama is the worst,

rumors that can tear you apart, unbearable to deal with.

Peer pressure, drugs, drama, all contributing to a point where you worry

too much what people think about you;

afraid to be yourself

constantly meeting new people

some you never may have thought you would have talked to.

Your friends are a major influence in many of the decisions you make

not every decision made will be the right one

as long as you learn from the mistake

this is all just another part of your life,

the journey through high school.

The Fires of Europe  by Author Phyllis Harrison (iUniverse, Inc.). 

Teenage rebellion is not an option in the France of 1640.  The King and Cardinal Richelieu oversee a network of priests who set snares for those not following closely enough to their rules.  Gilles Montroville tries to live the life his parents have planned for him but he is launched into a world far away from his protected childhood.   And a second novel from Harrison...

Plowshares in the Palatinate

During the 17th century religious struggles in Europe, French Protestants or “Huguenots” are obliged to flee their Catholic homeland or face execution. Although it has already been ravaged by the many battles fought in that region during the Thirty Years War, one small German state, the Rhenish Palatinate, offers refuge to anyone who wants to try and live there. After fleeing France and living for a time in Holland, a young Huguenot tries to reconnect with his former countrymen and his heritage, bringing his growing family along with him as he joins a group of French colonists who have come to this rural outpost seeking religious freedom. Establishing a viable settlement on the banks of the Rhine River proves to be a greater challenge than anticipated, threatening collective as well as individual survival. The hardships that they endure take the pioneers to the limits of their mental and physical capacities, testing their faith in their god and their faith in themselves.
