A Good Thing

Good thing about being in the army. My armed force class the speaker did really good of introducing himself and why he likes that job. His speech talks about why army is good and also talk about how much they get paid and how dangerous his job can be. It’s me that’s got to decide if I want to do that or not. He explains how being in the army can help pay for my college. Their responsibility was to protect the country from any bad thing that will come. After listening to his speech I learn that…

he’s sleeping forever: Characterization in “A Small, Good Thing” In “A Small, Good Thing”, Raymond Carver describes the events of a small boy, Scotty, getting injured and being hospitalized. His parents, Ann and Howard, then need to internalize the situation each in their own way until they finally accept Scotty’s death after meeting with a baker that has been giving the parents foreboding calls. Carver uses characterization in “A Small, Good Thing” to convey the idea of how Ann and Howard are…

Guilty by association is not necessarily a good or bad thing. It really just depends on the situation that the person was in. For example, if you had a friend that was a mass murderer but you had no idea, and you were with the friend before the friend killed the person, and left before the person was killed and you friend, you know, killed the person who is now dead, you would be guilty by association, I guess. You see, I am still kind of confused by what guilty by association means. I mean,…

Do you feel like bullying in schools is a good or bad thing? Well bullying in schools happens everywhere in the world. Bullying can lead to negative things. The negative things that it can lead to aren’t very smart, but when people are getting bullied constantly they feel like they have no choice but to do the negative things to themself. Me personally, I think bullying others is stupid, I mean really why would you want to hurt other people’s feelings, or make them feel bad about themself? Would…

I feel that organ donation is a good thing and I would be more than happy to be registered as an organ donor. I would feel forever grateful if I were to receive a new organ from someone who decided to be a donor and I don't see any reason why not to donate your organs in the event of a fatal accident. I think that if you are dead than you aren't going to use them anyways and as long as they can be used for good to save someones life such as a cancer patient then I would hope that I could at…

Thor truly pitied those who didn’t. It was nice though to spend some time with his Hveðrungrs when there wasn’t a battle to be fought. He’d left the little ones with Darcy for this outing however. Poor Pyrmja had needed the break and it was always good to spend time with just one of his Hveðrungr at once instead of trying and failing to give them equal attention when they were all together. Thor knew that the Raikou didn’t mind the lack of attention, but she was his oldest and most trusted…

as my own education starting at birth, or even pre-birth, and ending in the present. Now according to Plato, what the state defines as your education is merely a sliver of what your education truly is. One 's education is composed of every single thing or idea that one has come into contact with and even the ideas that one was not able to come into contact with due either to random chance or the intentional exclusion of said ideas from one 's education; a concept integral to Plato 's…

cleaned them off on his suit jacket. His baby blue eyes looked the same way mine did – worn out. He stuffed his sunglasses into his pocket, loosened his tie, then looked over at me. “Hey.” “Hey,” I replied. “Rough day?” “Sure was. Is there ever a good day in court?” He chuckled, but the quiet laugh sounded hollow. “My divorce was final…

with that. This to me sounds a lot like Sir Issac Newton's 3rd law of motion that states "every action has an equal and opposite reaction", so in terms of this theme you need to experience things in order to get an outcome. It makes me look at things in a different way because I have to "man up" and do the things I don't want to do because it will benefit me in the…
