Pent Up Feelings
By Tabita Cioloca, 17, Romania I’m puzzled at how people can keep their emotions so well hidden. Imagine the buildup pressure due to the suppressed feelings.

Going For The Prize
Every March, the Iditarod Trail Race is held in Alaska. Sled dogs and their drivers, called “mushers,” race across a 1,049-mile route from Anchorage to Nome. The competing teams cover this great distance in anywhere from 8 to 15 days. In 2011, a record time was set by musher John Baker who covered the entire route in 8 days, 19 hours, 46 minutes, and 39 seconds. The teamwork between dogs and driver is remarkable, and those who compete are tenacious in their efforts to win. The first-place winner receives a cash prize and a new pickup truck. But after so much perseverance in extreme weather conditions, the accolades and prizes may seem insignificant and transient.

Escape From Reality
By Josh Yap, 22, Australia Feeling down, I reached for my handy music player, hoping for some music therapy. Then Boston by Augustana popped up in my playlist. The chorus echoed my melancholic thoughts: You don’t know me And you don’t even care, oh yeah And you said, you don’t know me And you don’t [...]

Can’t Do Everything
Four-year-old Eliana was helping her mom pick up some of Eliana’s things before bedtime. When Mommy told her to put away the clothes on her bed, Eliana hit her limit. She turned around, put her little hands on her hips, and said, “I can’t do everything!”
Sing, Play, Shout!
By Eugene Seah, 23, Singapore “Sing to him a new song; play skilfully, and shout for joy.” —Psalm 33:3 (NIV) Have you ever felt nervous during praise and worship?

Jesus’ Eyes
