So, my first TL Blog (I'm pretty sure it was an achievement ^^). ANYWAYS, for school, I was asked to write something that they can put into the newsletter they send out every month. I was not given a topic, and with the recent topic of the strikes going on in Ontario (Canada), a lot of people in my area, are getting really down, or overly saddened. So, since I've written it up, I'd like to share this with you TL community.

Throughout our lives, we will be met with disappointments. Not one or two, no. We will have to deal with an abundance of problems through our go through life. As much as these disappointments may happen, we have to pull through, and come out with a smiling face. Keeping yourself down, or avoiding problems, will just lead to even more further down the road.

It is a natural part of life, just like humans requiring to sleep, eat, and our never-ending quest to better ourselves. Because we yearn to become greater than what is in the physical reaches of what makes a human, and then inevitably fail, we start to beat ourselves down for not being able to do something, that was impossible from the get-go.

Not being able to achieve the impossible means nothing at all, but not being able to achieve what is in your grasp, what is given to you. Now that, that is something you should be worried about.

Definitely a very uplifting paragraph, but your use of commas is a bit much . Overall I haven't heard about the strikes, but that might be because I'm American and so my news stations just skip over canada all together.
User was warned for too many mimes.

The abundance of long sentences is a writing style. It's not inherently incorrect.

I hope you win! ^.^

This wasn't for a speech contest or anything, haha. Just felt like speaking my mind, and they needed someone to write for the "Student" spaces on the monthly newsletter

Nicely written. Though isn't it kind of strange to not be given a topic? Did they give you any idea at all the context you were writing for?

And I would have left out two of the commas

They did not give me any topic or context at all -.- Whenever I asked, I was told "anything you like" =/
