These are the qualities that I feel I express as individual: passion, trust, loyalty, energy, joy, happiness, enthusiasm, creativity and gratitude. I also possess some not so good qualities: criticism, defensiveness, extreme introspection, and sensitivity. As I seek to understand why I get so critical at times, I reflect on a question that Narayani asked, “Are you an empath?” “Well, I am empathetic, if that is what you mean.” I have never studied the term ‘empath’ as a state of being or genetic…

of Two Cities I noticed an abundance of conflicts which arose can be traced back to the female characters and the lack of education for them. The main conflict of the story and the root of all problems that occured in the book was caused by the sexual abuse of Madame DeFarge’s sister from Marquis Evremonde who was a rich french aristocrat. She is an example of a girl living in France during the Revolution who would hugely benefit from free education and empowerment. After her sister’s rape…

He ironically was a childcare expert. What makes this specific story so extremely disappointing is that he was in a position of utmost authority over these boys.
