Love One Another
Number of words: 362 - Number of pages: 2.... what about how can I love someone that I do not know? An easy

planet" of Earth proved to have extremely hostile conditions. Scientists were
hopeful when they found traces of water vapor in the upper atmosphere, but were
disappointed when concentrations of sulphuric acid were discovered mixed with
the water. Venus has surface temperatur .....

Number of words: 616 - Number of pages: 3.... only take me about 2-3 minutes to get to the cafeteria from the Academic Building, but instead, it took me about 15 minutes with the walker. People were kind enough, however, to open the doors for my partner and I.
As we entered the cafeteria, I noticed people looking at us sympathetically and some very arrogantly. One person in particular couldn’t stop starring at me. The way he was looking at me upset me and made me a bit annoyed. In my mind I felt like hitting him with my walker, but my good sense told me it is not a good idea. By the time I got to the ca .....
