Lydia's Strengths

Improved Essays
One of Lydia's biggest strengths is that she is a fantastic listener. I have been friends with Lydia for 5 years and have always felt comfortable speaking to her when I need support. She always does her best to really understand my perspective and offer helpful advise or simply empathize with and comfort me. Another one of Lydia's best traits is her work ethic. She does not back down from a challenge. I have seen this particularly in the context of her as a student. Lydia studies diligently and always wants to do her best. The third character strength that comes to mind when I think of Lydia is her reliability. She takes her responsibilities in life seriously and I know that I can always rely on her to keep her word.

I would say that Lydia's

This is an opportunity that not everyone has the privilege to be a part of during their high school career.

    It is important for a young woman, especially one of Lydia's uncertain future, to marry decently; in the Bennet household, marriage is held as the uttermost goal by the lady of the house, if not her husband. And Mr. Bennet, if he has any true qualms about Lydia's behavior, does nothing to stop it. When Elizabeth confronts him later in the novel about his cultivation of Lydia's alleged frivolity by allowing her to go to Brighton, Mr. Bennet brushes her concerns off by saying, "Lydia will never be easy till she has exposed herself in some public place or other" (Austen 158). Elizabeth continues to protest his decision, arguing that her own respectability will be negatively affected by Lydia's conduct. Mr. Bennet only says that wherever she and…

    Although it is disturbing, try to envision what it would be like to live in a country in which the government took children and televised them while they were fighting to their death. The author of The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins, writes about living in this future dystopian country, called Panem, which consists of twelve districts and the capital. To maintain order and for cruel entertainment, the capital hosts the Hunger Games each year by placing two tributes, boy and girl, from each district into an arena to fight for their lives until just one is left standing. The story’s narrator, Katniss Everdeen, volunteers as a tribute to replace her little sister, Prim, in the seventy-fourth Hunger Games. In that moment, Katniss was only worried…

    Being reluctant to improvise could be a strength for me by my patients knowing that I will stick to the books and I would not do or try anything I was not comfortable with doing. Having the need to have constant acknowledgment is a strength in itself. I will always be trying harder and looking for that recognition from my superiors. Concerning the fact that I neglect my own needs, I will never have my doctors question my priorities because they will already know that I will be doing everything I possibly can. Having weaknesses isn’t always a negative in my case because this will only push me to be better and work…

    Most significantly, through Austen’s use of the character Lydia, readers are aware that women who break social norms are the subject to ridicule as their impulsive, passionate behaviour conflicts with Regency etiquette and are therefore frowned upon. Although Austen does include the reaction of Lydia’s family, it is the reaction of Mr Collins that best embodies a Regency response. In chapter 48, Mr Collins sends a letter to Mr Bennet addressing Lydia’s disappearance with Mr Wickham to Gretna Green. Mr Collins writes, “The death of your daughter would have been a blessing in comparison to this”. In particular, the use of the noun “blessing” is usually associated with the religious connotation of a gift from God, however the juxtaposition between…
