my english 101 class was assigned to write an explanatory paper on something we believe in. simple enough, right?
wrong. i know the general idea that i want my paper to follow: that people should live everyday like its his/her last, life moves too fast to live with regrets, just LIVE life without worrying so much.
the problem is, i can't think of a specific thesis statement to sum all this up. if someone could help me come up with this, i'd appreciate it. or, if anyone has any suggestions as to whether i should make one of the statements above the thesis, then use some of the others as examples? anything & everything is appreciated!

English 101 was my favorite class. Anyway it sounds like you are wanting to write about people not following through on their decisions because of worry. So maybe you can use that as a thesis statement and then give about three examples(job choice, returning to school, etc) of how people do that within your opening paragraph. Finally you can expand on those examples in the body of your essay. If you want, once you are done or if you have any other questions during your assignment, you can email me back and I will help you. [ kclark21's advice column | Ask kclark21 A Question ]
