My drive to be in education is driven around the moment my parents see what I have accomplished. I have always felt the need to please them and make…

How do I know what I should do? In this paper, I will argue that ethics require one to view one’s own life as a whole. Ethics concerns how we should act.

Dickinson was able to correlate everyday actions to much more profound meanings; with this mastered ability of hers, the reader could share the same obscure thoughts as the speaker. Even the core message of the poem itself can be relatable to all who have had to endure some sort of ungraspable stress, which in a sense is a real life nightmare, because it is always in one’s mind. The deeper the reader gets into the poem, the…

In Wonder, Palacio underscores two social values: the importance of kindness and of using life to positively impact people. Over and over again, Palacio stresses how much treating others with kindness will impact their lives. She even states through the character of Auggie’s teacher, “If you act just a little kinder than is necessary, someone else, somewhere, someday, may recognize in you, in every single one of you, the face of God.” Auggie’s struggles not only humanize the struggles of…
