My Explication:

I know that you think what you are saying is right,
210 But what we often think, is wrong, Purpose is only held back by our memory, Of an excited beginning, but short lifespan, Like how unripe fruit will still stay on a tree, But when it ripens, it falls.
215 It is important that we forget To pay ourselves our debt. What we do while we have passion When the passion ends, we lose our purpose. Action can be caused by the strong emotions of grief and joy
220 End when the emotions are destroyed, so does purpose. Joy can easily turn to grief, And grief can easily turn to joy. The world is not for this, and it’s not surprising That our love changes with fortune.
225 It is still a question we have

    Analysis Of Adios Amor

    Throughout my lifetime, there has been moments of laughter as well as grief. But a moment in my life that was pivotal was when I first felt the love of my life, at the moment, fade away slowly from me and sort of detach from our relationship. The song by Christian Nodal- “Adios Amor” showed me how at times when the love fades between partners to the point where there is no love at all, you have to do your best to move on rather than spending time grieving the love that is lost. Therefore, the song “Adios Amor” gave me the tough realization that some relationships are best to let go of if they don’t work as a young adult, and will continue to guide me throughout my life.…

    Humans have always looked for the answer to finding happiness in life. For the majority of people, they believe that love will bring them this sense of happiness. In Barbara Fredrickson’s, “Selections from Love 2.0: How Our Supreme Emotion Affects Everything We Feel, Think, Do and Become,” she talks about how we see love in the wrong way and that we should start looking at love the way the body sees it. This change in perception of the definition of love allows people to have a better chance of obtaining love and having a better sense of self. With the conventional notions of love and relationships, love becomes more complex by giving people the sense of longing.…

    As an only child growing up in Clarence, Iowa, I at most times found myself playing alone in my backyard or sitting in front of my television, watching whatever we had on VCR. DVD players had already been out for years at that time, but with my father working as a mechanic in some random guy's garage, we could not afford to buy a DVD player. I had to resort to VHS tapes, but at least my mother would take me to the used game store(which also sold VHS tapes and DVDs)every once in a while. I became addicted to owning VHS tapes, even as a six year old boy and honestly, I still am to this day. My favorites were the movies from Tim Burton and the Disney films were my absolute favorites; I just could not get enough of Toy Story and The Lion King.…

    Exfoliate For Amazing Movie Star Skin Exfoliation is a simple idea and has long been a trick of the professional stylist’s trade, but only recently has exfoliation hit the mainstream. When you exfoliate your skin you buff away the dead skin cells that linger on the top of your face, thereby revealing a glowing layer of fresh, young skin. The layers of new skin that your face produces are smooth and soft, and are the perfect surface for flawless makeup application. If you are troubled by flaky areas on your face or if you find your makeup clumping rather than settling evenly onto the natural contours of your nose, cheeks, and chin, exfoliation may be the answer to your beauty woes.…

    The meaning of life is a highly controversial topic among humans; one that has been debated for centuries. A particular philosopher, Thomas Nagel, has a certain idea about what the meaning of life. However, I do not agree with his position. Essentially, he believed that life has no meaning and that there is no rationale that could be given to it in order to make it meaningful. Nevertheless, even if everything we do in life will be forgotten, that does not mean humans cannot find meaning in their everyday life.…

    In this paper, I will argue in that I agree with Socrates’s claim that the most important thing in life is to have the best possible state of the soul, and to have the best soul, one must have knowledge, virtue, and no fear of death. However, I believe love is as important as those other elements. Love is extremely crucial in any persons life. Just like food and water are important fundamentals for survival, love is important for the soul. Love is an intense and passionate feeling for someone else, and starting a new journey with them in hopes for a happy and beautiful life being committed to each other.…

    People often wonder what motivates them to keep getting up in the morning, to go through their normal routine day after day, and to always think about what they should do or say. They begin to ponder three essential questions: Does life have any purpose? Do my actions impact anything in the future after I die? What is the importance of my life?

    We are constantly striving to search for the purpose and meaning of the things we do in our everyday lives. I believe we need reason and purpose in order to do anything, just how some need a reason or reasons to keep living, or their lives may become “meaningless”. I believe the meaning of life is to find what is true to you by using your own personal experiences and dreams. Everything you do brings meaning, even if it brings you happiness or sadness or even tragic. Either the experience is good or bad, it still has…
