The Ideal Husband In Disney's Mulan

Improved Essays
The challenge of finding a perfect husband may seem insurmountable, but focusing on several key characteristics can help narrow the field; however, the preferred personality befitting the ideal spouse may vary based on each individuals unique needs. An ideal husband, according to Disney’s Mulan must be “swift as the coursing river, with all the strength of a raging fire, with all the force of a great typhoon, and mysterious as the dark side of the moon.” In other words, he should be God-fearing, supportive of all endeavors (even Disney obsessions), and hilarious. The ideal spouse should be a devoted follower of God, growing in his spiritual walk, and encouraging growth in others. The godly man should display his passion for the Lord by being

    Week Three Devotional God is in the people business and the command is simple; go, baptize, and teach. Why? Because Jesus, being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God, said so. The slave is not greater than the Master and as His bond servants, our obedience is not optional but is a requirement. “Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” (Rom 10:17 KJV). It seems that as we get older we become our hearing diminishes.…

    Cotton encourages those seeking out a calling to seek out “the most homeliest and difficultest and most dangerous things his calling can lead and expose himself to,” (Cotton 71). This displays the importance of the bodily nature not only to exemplify obedience, but to persevere one 's faith. Cotton recognizes the importance of our spiritual nature and that the Lord is concerned about it and wants our faith and hope in Him, but Cotton simply depicts that it is evident that the best way to portray this spiritual nature is through our bodily nature and its willingness and responses to God’s calling. Cotton even declares that “faith with boldness resigns up his calling into the hands of God or man” (Cotton 73). This boldness that Cotton refers to is the spiritual faith that our bodily nature puts to work.…

    Many people highly regard Author C.S Lewis for his classics of the fiction and nonfiction genre. He wrote dozens of books over the course of his career. His faith-based arguments can be seen in his text, and he has captivated the minds of many a youth(including me in my youthful adulthood) in his landmark series, The Chronicles of Narnia. A lot of people, including Pastor #TimmothyKeller site Lewis's work as what helped them understand the gospel better.

    The Dash Project has allowed me to really think about my future and realize what things are important in life whether it has to do with cognitive aspects or social/emotional aspects or physical aspects. I am lucky enough to have a 93-year-old great grandfather in my life, and I was able to interview him for this paper. He provided a lot of useful information that I gained knowledge from. When I asked my great grandfather about the cognitive aspect of his life, he said if he had a do over, even though it was not expensive back in his day compared to today, he would not have worried about the cost of further schooling and sold himself short. Just like in the article “Lessons for Living”, he agreed with Sam Winston that you learn from experiences. My great grandfather also said that he wished he would have spent more time with his friends and would have been involved in the community more to make it a better place.…

    Marriage Interview Paper

    Marriage is more than a commitment, it should follow a quite enough history of a healthy relationship during which individuals have enough time to examine their desires and their significant other, analyze the rest of their life as couple and make sure they are ready to spend the rest of their lives with the significant other. As I have mentioned before, I value moral and traits more than any other factor in a happy marriage life. Therefore, most of the questions of my interview were chosen to know more about the couple 's’ feelings toward each other, qualities, behaviors, any family or religion background that might effect on their happy marriage. Through the questions that couples were asked, I realized how the ideas of understanding, compromising, caring, and prioritizing composed a big part of their happy life. I tried to include questions that carry material value as well, and I was able to see how little and sometimes no significant space they can have in happy married life.…

    The traits I would think my daughter Taylor would look for if searching for the perfect mate would be someone who makes her laugh, feel safe and loved. Someone who isn't necessarily a rebel but doesn't have to follow the crowd and can think for themselves. Inner strength. Someone who respects her opinion and freedom to be an individual and not have that be a threat to their relationship. He would need to realize how important her friendships are with others and allow her time to be with those people whether it included him or not.…

    During ancient Rome women were to be good wives. Being a good wife includes loving one’s husband, being loyal and obedient, doing duties, and being chaste, while not desiring freedom or being critical. Apuleius presents female characters in his novel The Golden Ass that both contradict and coincide with the positive and negative models of women found in ancient sources. The story of Psyche and Cupid within the larger novel reinforces the positive traits such as obedience and loyalty.…

    Marriage and Family One of the most difficult things to do in one’s life is to look back in retrospect at the experiences and growing pains as a child, adolescent, and young adult, and try to understand or analyze why we are the way we are, and how our life experiences have molded us and influenced our future decisions, including if not limited the choice to marry and my experience is no exception. My mother divorced my father when I was about two years old and almost immediately remarried my step-father when I was almost three. I had two siblings, an older brother and sister and my step-father who was also recently divorced had two children of his own that lived in Mexico at the time my mom and step-dad married. I can recall many years later professing the following statement many times, “I never want to get married because it will probably end in a divorce.”…
