Jesus is portrayed as the servant of God, but he is nonetheless the leader of the people on earth by virtue of his status as a prophet. Jesus being…

As I am writing this paper, I am transcended into memories of my childhood as I am climbing, for the second time already, the highest mountain of Albania; Mount Tomor. Now when I say climbing I mean mainly being in the back of a pick up truck with at least 5 other members of my family as we are covering us faces from the dirt of the unpaved roads.

These cultural make ups tend to set these cultures apart from one another or bring their daily lives into perspective for a deeper comparison.
