Grief Grief will not trap us, but that day. . . . The rain was pounding on my window. I stayed in bed, not wanting to get up. “Lilith Alice Smith! Get out of bed right now!” my mom barked. “Fine,” I groaned. I got up slowly and I put on my outfit. I dragged myself to the washroom, then I heard the phone ring and someone pick it up. Then, a painful scream rang around the house. I hadn’t thought much about it. This scream was different, but I didn’t notice. I just continued brushing my teeth.…
I would describe She Kills Monsters as hilarious with a twist in the story that also is depressing at times. I laughed until my stomach hurt at some parts and held back tears at others. The play is about Agnes and her younger sister Tilly. Agnes always would ignore Tilly because she was weird and nerdy. Agnes graduated from college just to find out the news of her family being in tragic car accident and dying. After college Agnes became a school teacher. One day she was clearing out Tilly’s…
The three religious faiths by the name of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity are very similar religions and yet very different religions. All three have similar aspects but eventually diverge to become completely different faiths. Judaism, Islam, and Christianity all share a few similarities and differences in the aspects of their creation story, their views on the role of Jesus, and their overall teachings as a whole. The similarities between the creation story of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam…
Able not Angel Women are the mother, the wife, the object of infatuation, a symbol for something else, and a villain. She has been marked with the original sin, forever doomed to repent. She is to be ashamed off, brushed off, controlled. This is what the role of women has been written of as in a multitude of literature, but this is also how she is treated. She is never to be the hero; she is the only there to assistance him in his journey. There have been the occasional defiant of these tropes…
This expository essay will discuss the topic of women’s rights in Jewish history and whether there was a struggle or a commitment of faith. There are different views and standpoints from Western civilization in the post-modern era on women’s rights, but one must remember the time and place in which the texts of the Hebrew Bible were written. The women’s rights movements that have taken place since then somewhat blur the meaning behind how and why women practice their faith in Judaism. For one to…
goals and aspirations. In fact, in traditional Jewish Folklore, “Adam’s first wife Lilith is depicted as independent, strong, and demanding. She and Adam had evidently already discovered the act of sexual intercourse, but Lilith refused to allow Adam to dominate her in the so-called ‘missionary position’ and insisted that she, too, should be able to hold that position. Apparently, both Adam and god were furious with Lilith for her insubordination, so God banished her” (Lawless 242). This…
Romanticism is something of a constant play, the pieces to me always seem so foreign given the leagues differences in what I am used to. Romanticism also seemed to me like it should be foreign to the vampire. Being a twenty-year old kid from America, I already had a preconceived idea on what a vampire should be, how it should act and look like etc, so seeing and reading these things act like a bunch of overdramatized bunch of actors I honestly couldn’t take many of the stories seriously. Nothing…
Twenty-five minutes later, I arrive at my home the cab parks in the driveway of my house. “Welcome home, maim. Thanks for choosing Yellow Cab,” He says, boastfully. “Oh yes, I enjoyed being choked to death by the goddamn air freshener, asshole.” I leave the cab, taking my bag and the cab drives off. He doesn’t say anything he just stares at me in disbelief. I sit my bag on the driveway and look around my neighborhood that’s illuminated by street lights. I stretch both my arms out all the…
