Here I am at the end of my reasearch and I finally have the answer to my question which is " what can someone do to help someone who just losted a loved one". There is just not one answer to this question there are many answers to this question.The first thing that I learned is that the most important thing that you can do for someone who just losed a loved one is to just be there, that is what everyone who just losed a loved one is to know that someone is there that understand then and the things that they are going though.I also learned that everyone loses someone very important in there life so everyone in the world looses someone who they really cared about.
Although my research was very sucessful I though that there was more out there to my question yes my question was answered but i feel that the articles was telling me the same thing over and over again. But indeed the articles did answer my question which is a very good thing.
The second thing that I learned from my research was that everyone deals with the loss of a loved one very different. One person may shut down from the world and stop talking to everyone.Then on the other hand many peolpe may get out of control and start doing things that they would have never done before that person passed away.It really alls depends on #1 how close you was to that person and how do you deal with that person being out of your life.
The third thing that I learned from my research was that things get harder before they get better. Just keep your head up and it will all get better.

Okay here I am again trying to find a answer to my question when I came upon this article that really was just what I was looking for the article title is called "How to help someone who has just lost a loved one" this article talks about the steps that you should take as being a friend of a person who just lost a love one. The first thing the article talks about you should do is tell the person that you are very sorry for there lost and ask the person if there is anything that you can do at that point in time.The second thing that you should do is act the person if they need any financial help because there is a lot of people out in the world that do not have life insurence which means that there surviving family will have to pay for all the funnel expenses out of there pocket so that would be a good thing to do is offer financial help.The third thing that you so someone who really care about the person who just lost a loved one is to bring food to the persons house.When someone looses a loved one the last thing that's on there mind is food and trying to cook to eat. On the other hand you may call and ask them if they need anything and they say they have enough food that means that people ave already brough food for them.Sending the family a sympathy card would also be a good idea.Maybe you could send flowers to the funeral home before the funeral thats a good idea to.The number one thing that you could do is be there for the person no matter what the situation my be they need. Dealing with the death of my grandmother all of these thing \s that I just mentioned made my griving process a little better do not get me wrong it was very hard dealing with the loss of my grandmother but knowing there was someone out there who was willing to make easier for me was a great thing.It takes time but it does get easier.

How does being in a greek orginization positively influence the actions in daily life?
For this post i kept searching the Internet and came upon a school website for Johnson and Wales University which offers a number of greeks at their campus. Johnson and Wales University lists a plethora of positive aspects that the greeks at their college offer such as opportunities to create special, life long friendships, develop leadership skills, participate in community service activities, and apply classroom learning to real experiences within an organization.It also states that greek members feel a greater connection to their University and build strong relationships with alumni and network with other fraternity and sorority members across the country. Also, many of today’s corporate, political, social, and religious leaders are alumni members of fraternities and sororities. (Johnson & Wales University )
Although college greeks are taken a lot more serious than high school greeks we still endure some of the things that college pledgies go through. So, to further ma research I asked a few junior greek members a few questions to get their point of view on my topic. First, i interviewed Terrell Leslie, a member of Iota Psi Youth Alliance. He stated that "by joining a greek organization he was introduced to new things such as college and also he states that it matured him as a person." He also says that he doesn't regret pledging because it gave him a sense of lifelong brotherhood. For another opinion I went to my sister Kearia King, a member of Kappa Lambda Gamma Junior Sorority. She explains how by joining a organization she had the chance to meet new people and take on new experiences. Kearia states "joining Kappa Lambda Gamma Junior Sorority has made me a way more outgoing person overall".

How does being in a greek orginization positively influence the actions in daily life?
As i continued my research on the Internet I came across an article by Katie Potzick. (The Beat) She wrote an article on a student at University of Louisville in the fall of 2005 named David Scholla who asked himself "to pledge or not to pledge"... Well he ended up pledging and not regretting his decision and he says "it has made him a more round person". He also states that it has helped him strive to achieve his personal best in all areas in college life: scholarship, leadership, teamwork, and community service. The article also included a interview from Lauren Hansen, a junior accounting/computer information systems major and Phi Beta Phi member. She states "It is a great way to meet new people. Joining Greek Life gives you a support system and lifelong friendship... you have service opportunities and can participate in intramural sports, hold leadership positions, and are able to become very active in campus events."During the year the Greek organizations also sponsor different fundraising and charity events such as the Chi Omega Chili cook off, the Kappa Delta Shamrock and 5K run, the Triangle Thanksgiving dinner, etc... The events help Greek members fulfill their goal to reach out to the community and create positive change. Throughout my blog I wanted to show and give you examples in which people joined a Greek organization and how it changed their lives in a positive way.

The affects
When teen girls get pregnant they never think abou the negative things hat could occur.being a young girl and not fully developed anything could have went wrong with the delivery.I asked my mother a quesion and she began telling me a story of when she was in gammer school.She said that her friend got pregnant in the seventh grade and while giving bith she was paralyzed in the process because her body was not totally developed.That made me think of all of the youngs having babies and taking the situation for granted.Another thing that can be an issue is mental disabilities.Nobody is guaranteed to a healthy breathing baby,so from my knowledge of the whole situation i talk to many young girls and encourage tem to wait as long as possible to have kids.

Wondering when I will find the right answer to my question I came upon a artile that really shocked me like this is what I am really looking for.The aricle is called "Steps Dealing With Grief" this article really hit the point that I really wnat to be at. It talked about the steps with dealing with grief such as the first that someone who just went though the loss of a oved one is to understand the grieving process that everything is not going to be easy there is going to be a long road ahead.There are several stages of grief including denial,anger,bargaining,depression and acceptance. In my opion I believe that the hardest step in the grieving process is acceptance, dealing with the loss of my grandmother the hardest thing for me was really accepting that she was gone and was never comming bak that was real hard.Hten on the other hand some people deal with grief very different for example some people may withdraw themselves from the world, friends and family. The most important thing that people can do to help is ask the person what they loved about the pesron and why the loved the person. Maybe that will help.....Until next time
