405 Entries for “given”

  1. I was given my necklace on my thirteenth birthday. I guess my parents were superstitious. It has a small stone turtle hanging from it, something symbolic I think; I don’t really know. To protect me, they say.

  2. to give. i wrote on this before, but it’s okay. because it’s still beautiful.

    hugs…have to be one of my favorite things to get in the entire world. people who love me hold me close and tell me that i’m beautiful and that we’ll make it through together.
    come to think of it, their presence and encouragement is the real gift

  3. there’s just that one time wen you are given the chance to do what ever you want or to believe that your right or what your doing is right but then at the end of the day you figure out that its all wrong and that you just gave it all away cause u didn’t pay attention to Her.

  4. Just take what has been given to you, they told me. I held this small thing in my arms, watched its eyes open, close, and open. And I didn’t know exactly what this was I was taking. The little girl cooed at me, and yet I felt no reassurance despite, or perhaps because of, its quiet eyes.

  5. I am thankful for all of the things that have been given to me. From the clothes and home that shelter me to the stories that my great grandmother tells once in a while. I know the things that have been given to me are one in a million because nothing can replace them.

  6. given. as in a gift.
    it’s not mine to begin with. you gave it to me.
    that would imply that we get along pretty well. no, you don’t have to be my best friend.
    but you’re there for me. i’m glad you are.
    you’ve given me something, I will cherish this gift. forever, I promise.
    i don’t care so much what it is that you’ve given me, but that you have given it.
    i’m thankful for it, and for you.
    i love you.
    let me know what you need, and I can give it to you, too.

  8. I was given the best gift in life, temperance and understanding. It is an amazing aspect that some people choose to over-look. But for me it helped me through situations throughout my life.

  9. Of all the presents I’m ever given, the ones I remember most are the hugs. I doubt my friends remember them all, because it’s an unspoken fact: You give and forget. I never do. Sometimes, the most priceless things are the things you can’t keep, but only barely remember. I guess that’s just a given.

  11. I have been given the unthinkable. The impossible. The most unbelievable gift I could ever believe. It is not freedom. It is not happiness. It is not family, not good health, not anything I could count in this world. It is a life that persists in Christ alone!

  12. Given to the young boy, the young man, was his grand father’s rifle. He had never known his father, and now he would never again know his grand father’s laugh. All he had now was his rifle, and he was adamant to make something of himself just as his forbearers did.

  13. The second time I have been given the word ‘given’, and my brain is sapped for ideas. I am uninterested. And I want a new word. There. That is all.

  14. Given the time I have to write this, ducks may be swimming in a pond without a care in the world. Meanwhile the gods of technology are given a new chance to expand beyond social networking into a new era of advancements for all to invent with.

  15. i have been given the same word twice. giving should be random and spontaneous. impulse breeds the best creativity. you were given a brain, use it.

  16. The thing that you take is something you may not think about in depth, but how about the person you took it from? One may wonder what they can be feeling right now. Are they missing their lost object? Pining for its return?

    Adrie
  17. whatever you are given can be taken away. there will be no questions and there will be no answers. to give it to receive. to those much is given, much is expected.

    chris
  18. Most times people give something away because they know it will give them something in return. Very rarely do you meet someone that gives something away without any expectations. Make them your friend!

    bard
  19. It’s a. That’s all I’ve got today, too cold to think.

  20. What we are given in this life is unimportant. It is what we do with what we have that makes our lives truly special. Everyone is given (by God) the ability to create, change, influence, and improve your reality, if you only believe they can.

  21. i am given many things in life and i feel like i take them for granted. i’m selfish. i wish i could feel like i give people as much as they give me. there are two types of people in life: givers and takers. at the end of the day, the givers win

  24. Wow this is a powerful word. I feel like God has given me this life filled with purpose and direction. And although He has given me a hard like, He knows that I can handle all of it. I was blessed to say the least. Thank you Jesus.

  25. given. many things are given to us. but to keep being to we have to also give in return.. be grateful for what you are given because you never know when it will be taken away whether it be a moment, an object, or friend ship cherish it all because this moment right now is the only moment you know you have for sure.

  26. She had given me her most prized possesion. A simple glass box with the words rejoice writen over the top. So she really did love me. She really did care. Turns out we had both given eachother alot of love over the years.

  27. I was once given a toy. It was the toy of imagination. sadly it broke yesterday. Not sure what to do about it now, however, I have a new toy. Love. Hopefully this lasts forever…

  28. and it was given. In then ame of the father, the son and the holy ghost. oh. well, that is what the preist said. My life was a testament to things going a completely different way. But then, there was no elements of blame, guilt, punishment. perhaps that is why my life is filled with such immense joy, bliss happiness and love.

  29. Given to living, we give in to living.

  31. How can write a word about given? No I cannot write something about given because I really can’t. It’s not a noun. It’s not a word I can describe. Given is not a noun! HOW CAN I?! Tell me that! How can I? Huh? Can you write something about the word, GIVEN?

  32. its a given, that im living on this earth to be seen and not heard.
    but i refuse to accept that, so i fight back with words in a herd.

  33. We are given eternal life thanks to Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. We are given freedom by the blood of Christ. We are given forgiveness even though we do not deserve it. We are given free will as a gift from God. We are given FREEDOM IN AMERICA!

    We are given love. Love that died on a cross because you and I are not perfect. Love that loved us before we loved Him.

  35. I was given piles. I was given heaps of… everything. I was given a home, friends, family, air to breath. But all so suddenly it was taken away. God can give and take… will you be happy with what He does give you?

  38. Everything I have and know has been given to me in one form or another. These givens forms my assumptions about the world around me. One cannot assume something if it is not also a given.

  39. It is a given that she will be late. So we compensate by telling her a time an hour earlier than the real time. “The show starts at 1:00” Then she will be on time for a 2:00 show. She missed her grandfather’s funeral because we gave her the correct start time.

  40. They were all dressed in red the litttle girls crossing throu the snow on their way to school – the teachers walked at the side or was it parents – women in any case – through the black pines and decaying buildings – a ribbon of coherence – in scarlet
