  1. She staggered through the halls, attempting to ignore the pain throbbing in her thigh. If she wanted help, she would have to move fast. “This is the worst damn present I’ve been given for my birthday” she thought.

    Kirsten Kueser
  2. Given by somebody. Sometimes you can take that which has been given to you, or you can reject it. Many things can be given. ANYTHING can be given. Life, names, gifts, houses, anything. God gives us eternal life. Sometimes you can take what has been given then give it away again.

  3. What the world has become. The earth. It has given us everything, and we have nothing to show for it in return. What we have given the earth is trash, pollution, and death. We should take what the world has given us and turn it into something beautiful.

  4. Given the opportunity, I was sure he could kill me. I was, after all, at his mercy. Though as we stood there, him pressing a knife against my throat, I had a strange sense of calm. It was as if we were not standing precariously on a rooftop, having just finished a deathly battle, still trying to kill each other. No, I felt as safe and calm as I would if I were sitting with him in a diner somewhere, talking about the weather.

  5. I have given you all that I have. I love you so much. You don’t even know. I have given you my heart, my soul, my love. My first love. I hope you to be my last love as well. God, I love you and would give you the world if I could. And I am so blessed and grateful that you have given me all of this in return. You have given me so much and I am forever thankful that you are in my life.

    Given oppurtunity

  7. It’s given that I love you. I couldn’t have given you anything more than everything I have. That just wasn’t enough for you though, was it? I wish I could say I could have tried harder… but I couldn’t have.
    Now I just miss you. I love you and I’m sorry… anything that you thought was missing, I must not have showed enough. I love you.

  8. Given, i would think of the event as someting out of a book i read as young. Nothing like that ever happens as you grow .

  9. hm… really have no clue what to write on this one…. except for “Well THAT’S a given!!”

    the end. :)

  10. given the opportunity to make everything better, he wont.
    given the chance to prove to you everything you found wrong, he wont.
    given the moment to steal your heart for the greater good, he wont.

    but you keep giving him everything he asks for, and you wonder who will be there when you’re crying..he wont.

  11. it’s a given people have committed atleast one sin in their life. whether they like to think so or not.

  12. Ive given a lot of things , Given up . Given in , Given hope. love. its said that a soul is born attached to another.
    that you are ripped apart and forced to spend the rest of your life searching for them. I disagree. A person . A soul is born completely whole. its finding that person that rips you in half.forces you to give your heart , give your soul and mind to another. The best you can do is find somebody who will give it back to you. make you whole again.Give you hope. Dont give up

  13. You’ve been given much. The computer that allows you to read these words, the education that allows you to read these words, the spare time in your life that allows you to read these words, the food you ate that (indirectly) allows you to read these words; these are all things that many people in the world have not been given. I am not a philanthropist, just somebody with good luck.

  14. Your marriage is a SHAM! I refuse to respect it. You and I both know that the only reason we can not be together is the fact that I have no money. Your ever present father…he does not respect my position. I refuse to pretend that your ‘husband’ is above me. I know the truth. I know who deserves you. I refuse to measure your worth…or mine…by our possessions. How can you be given away for a handful of gold?

  15. last night i was given a hug.
    it meant the world

    you recive and give all the time but sometimes you just need a hug, not a gift

  16. its a given that it’s all just sh-t its all sh-t and the ONLY thing in life that is certain, the only real given we get is that we all die. She said with such clarity, and it made such sense that that is the only certainly, and we don’t talk about it nearly as much as we should, we ipad pod touch and whatever else but ultimately we-die. idie.

  17. into my hands a glass full of light is given to me. a chalice from which i can drink. i put it to my lips and sip the golden-scented dreams that quench my soul this starborne night. i can’t image any greater gift than this. it is exactly what i need. i light up from within, sparkling

  18. Given

    the situation we have, humans can really do a lot. While some of us may be born in a war-torn region of Africa, and some of us find ourselves in the lap of the luxurious first-world, we all manage to adapt to and survive despite the conditions we are

    given.

    I'd rather not this time
  19. i have given my heart to many, and kept it within ones grasp for very long. longing for her to notice i am available, that what i have given before is available for now. love is given, and i rarely give it away…but she just won’t take.

  20. It’s a GIVEN that I should be able to write about this word, but it’s not as simple as one may think. So I’m gonna write about lamps. Lamps are so cool! It’s like portable light, man. Who thought of that? I mean, really. Who? That’s so awesome. I mean, a lamp. C’mon! That’s amazing right there. Amazing.

  21. At any given moment I will confess my feelings.
    At any given time I will explode, unable to contain all the things I carry inside my heart and my head
    At any given second I will gather my courage, walk up to you and tell you I love You, because you inspire me,
    You make me want to be better,
    You give me hope for the future
    You give me wisdom to carry on,
    But most importantly you support me from day to day just by being you.
    At any given moment…
    As in…
    Right. Now.

  22. Given. We have gifts every single day. A friendly face. A smile. A warm sunny day.

    Do we ever give back?

  23. Kore wa Haiku-tatsu no kuchi kara hanashita:

    Few things are given
    Intellect, rights, and pride
    are never those things

    Such as former said
    All must constantly strive for
    Earn them- or die now!

    HaikuTatsu
  24. I’ve given you all I could. Everything I had to offer, I gave to you. But it wasn’t enough, now was it? All you did was take me for granted and went crawling right back to her. Well, guess what. I’ve given up on you. I tried my best. And I don’t think I could ever trust you again. Never.

  25. I’ve given alot of thought to what I write and yet it often feels fruitless. Is this talent real or just imagined?

    Are my instincts correct?

    On any given day, can anyone be a writer?
    People have given a lot for a little; people have gotten a lot from others giving little.

  26. You’ve given everything for me, your son & his life all for the benefit of not only me but everyone. You sacrificed something so that we could live as we do and have a way out from all this sin. You’ve given & are still giving.

  27. I have been given a lot of chances during my life – some of them great opportunities, some of them really sucked…But it’s the choice that you make that matters

  28. You were given three days to complete the task. Three whole days. And you failed. Miserably. What’s wrong? You used to be able to complete this all in five hours. Really, I’m disappointed. Can you give me a reason? Anything? Did you even start? Do you even care? This is all you have for me.

  29. They stood in front of each other. The little crevices in her dimples he knew like the back of his hand. The way his hair would fall she knew as well as the alphabet. And they knew that they loved each other, from the way they looked at each other. It was a given.

  30. My given name was given by my parents who chose not to give me a middle name. My given name is special and I feel like I have to live up to it at all times…..

  31. Given. Whenever I hear this word, the first thing that comes to my head is math. Geometry Proofs in fact. Ya know, you get the proof and the given information. Then you start the project. Those proofs only make me think of proof camp in Mr.Ryan’s freshman class. All the snapping. All the yelling. All the hate. What memories, right?

  32. ima ninja with a great ball of glory and i love cheese with crackers and i dont wanna go swimming cuz people will call the cops on me for being so amazing. i’m hungry
    my dog is adorable
    my friend is walking
    my boyfriend is texting me.

  33. Given. Whenever I think of this the first that always comes to my mind is math. Ya know, in geometry…you get the proof and the given information. It’s such a weird thing to relate it to. I wish that it had a little bit more meaning, but I will forever think of the walls of Mr.Ryan’s pre-calc class and how much he snapped. And how much I hated that class. Oh high school memories…

  34. i have given many things to all the people i know and love. i have given my intelligence, i have given my love, i have given my happiness and i have given my hope. giving my hope to everything and everyone that i know and love gives me a reason to live. it makes me feel like i have inspired many people in my life no matter what. i will always give people my thoughts and my love, no matter what.

  35. I was given the chance and I didn’t take it. Fear – of failure, of success, of what others would say, of what others would think… These all stopped me. I was so young then. If only I’d realized what I’d really been given. If only I’d taken the opportunity presented. How different would life have been?

  36. we have been given the most beautiful shapes, the most beautiful colors; the most beautiful fruit. it took me a lifetime before july to realize that the perfect skin on an apple does not constitute the sweetest flesh.

  37. Given, something recieved, to give… to love, to hope, to trust…

  38. A gift…. <3

  39. I am thankful for all that I have been given, and I have been given a lot. God provides for me always, sometimes through the help of others, and it never ceases to amaze me. I hope I give a fraction of what I get in return.

  40. things i have given
    have been sometimes delightful
    sometimes an embarrassment
    these days
    i don’t give gifts very much
    but when i do
    it is something special
    and very carefully given
