I am a college student who happen to be not so good at academics. Hence, I only go to state university instead of Ivy League Univ. like Harvard, Yale, Princeton.
My parents often tells me that I won't get a good job or make good money if I don't go to top-notch school and make good grades. It always hurts hearing that as it is NOT my intention that I am not such a good student. Although they say it for my well-being, it sometimes makes me really depressed and even suicidal at times.
I know education is important. But I don't believe higher education always means mroe happiness. I wanna ask u guys. How happy are you being a Ivy Leaguer or Ivy League grad and making hefty sums of money and recognition from people wherever you go? I just wanted to hear from first-hand account. Because based on what my parents tell me, it must be a fantastic life every day. Thanks in advance for any insights.

Savannah Paradise
By: Eric Wyatt

The daylight shines on the African sand,
The trees, the animals, the eminent land.
The sky is a canvas for unpolluted eyes,
The shadows dance while the lion’s prey dies

As the sun rises, the sunlight paints another view.
The day starts again as if the process is new.
The same routine starts over once more,
This day’s no different than the ones before.

The elephant mother wakes up to the fresh, new day,
While the vulture’s feast maintains its decay.
The cheetah awakens to look for its meal.
To see which of the zebra is the most ideal.

All the plants and animals interact in a sensual art.
Everything coincides, they share one heart.
The opulence of it all quenches one’s thirst like wine.
Disturbing the beautiful balance would be an absolute crime.

The entire presence of such magnificent bliss,
Makes one wonder if it truly exists.

Hello. I would like to go back to college, but I owe my previous college a large sum of money, and they won't release my transcripts until I pay that money off. I don't have a paying job I am a full time mom. I looked into getting another loan, but no one will even help me out unless I am enrolled into school. But how can I enroll in school with no transcripts?

I am concerned about the Holy War your religion has started. I know that you proclaim the actions of a few, should not be taken out on all. Well lets look at this from a realist point of view. How would you react if every Christian church in America where to declare that "KILLING A MUSLIM WOULD GET YOU CLOSER TO GOD"! The out cry would be unbelievable. Yet your religious leaders call for just that. You want the world to feel the pain of the Lebanese people, yet you refuse to police yourself. You want everyone here in the States to be understanding of your plight, yet your brothers have declared a religious war on us.How would you react if a American were to take a muslim hostage, sacrifice a pig and then put the pigs heart in the body of said hostage, before beheading them. Now imagine that hostage was you son, brother, father, wife or daughter. You want acceptance here, police your own. and STOP this insanity. Or I do predict a Religious war will break out here in the states.
