Part 1 Asking myself what do I really want is a very good question because I then get to ask myself if what I want in life is really what I need. From what I have learned from Dr. Neal Deroo speech is that we always have to try and push harder to always go for what we want. These wants or desires we have can be seen as being selfish by other people, it actually could be the opposite. Dr. Neal Deroo said that “Some things are so much a part of us and our environment that we don’t even realize it’s there”, there are times where there are things that you want and you haven’t prayed for it yet not know that God is part of our everyday life and we should make it a challenge to always add God

Dr. Neal DeRoo also made mention that “We live our lives trying to get what we want this is an act of faith, of worship, not because it says something about what we believe but because, deep down we are more driven by our desires than our beliefs”. What do you do when you desire to have or to do something? You mature to be able to get or do it. What does life desire to do? To become bigger, to grow faster, and to excel. This drives evolution to bring about creatures to fill every society life can imagine, there for creating new societies. We develop new desires derived from the fundamental desire to expand. Those desires are fulfilled by what’s in our DNA called genes, which make a body capable of achieving what we have learnt to desire in life.

In this life the reason we live is to achieve goals we have set for ourselves, these goals are things that we want and our ability to look up to these goals and go after them is because we have faith in God that through hard work he is going to grant us these wants and desire of ours. every day we live to get what we want, and that is what is known as faith. The Kings university would help me to achieve this faith desire of mine, because of the philosophies and conducts that the school holds. This philosophy is present amongst the students and the teachers. Although some professors who may seem to come off as strict world actually help students when help is needed. The way the professor has a close relationship with the student is the type of relationship I would like to establish between Myself and the consumers that buy my

    I recently just watched a clip of Dr. Oz on Jimmy Kimmel. I know Dr. Oz is very commercialized, but watching this clip and him discussing surgeons and their relationships with nurses and their patients stuck out to me.

    According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, desire is a “conscious impulse toward something that promises enjoyment or satisfaction in its attainment.” Whether what we want is bad or good, we are constantly attracted to being in a state of satisfaction. There are times where we struggle with making the right moral decisions because we know in the back of our minds that it is wrong.

Bryan Spinks mentions this sensation in the perspective of a church.…

Therefore, it is pertinent to analyze the strengths and the weaknesses of Bragg’s speech to learn from the good techniques he applied and to understand the weaknesses.…

Within the beginning of her speech, Kelley repeats the phrase, “while we sleep” to target the guilt of those responsible, as well as the sorrow of those against child labor.…

When Wolpe brings up the discussion about these hybridized animals, he conveys to the audience what could possibly happen if bio-engineering continues to evolve and especially if it is used in humans.…
