However situational the plots in which Shakespeare writes can apply to everyday life, such as in Hamlet it is very situational to be mad at his uncle about killing his dad and replacing him as king and his technically his step father? Uncle dad something like that, seems like it Hamlet would fit in just right in Kansas... But being mad at a step-parent is a very apparent thing that occurs on a daily basis, the child in everyday life is not plotting his revenge on the stepparent... hopefully. Hamlet like many teens in modern times feel disgruntled by his mother’s ability to simply pick up and carry on with life so closely after the loss of a parent, or even to consider moving on. Shakespeare using his plots to show social issues, even though around the time of writing Hamlet, he had left his family behind for a different life. Which is also a thing that is seen a lot in modern times that wasn’t standard practice in the 1500’s. In modern times there are themes in everyday life that come from Romeo and Juliet such as forbidden love and oppression from parents. Basically they were in love and their families hated each other. Simple as that, this is recreated in too many movies to count, but it happens in real life, not as commonly, but it is there. In small towns such as Texarkana, for example it is very plausible. A parent could do something to upset another in high school and this town not being large it is a possibility for the teens to wind up in a Romeo and Juliet scenario.…
As humans, we make choices every single day from the moment we wake up each morning. Some of these choices do not seem to affect our lives with much significance, such as what we choose to eat for breakfast. On the other hand, some may change our lives forever, like deciding where to attend college. The choices we make lead to the experiences we have. The texts of Antigone, Saint Augustine: Of Choice and Free Will and Into the Wild contain instances of decisions that led to experiences, which…

Terrible tragedies impact virtuous people every day, seemingly without justification. Although these horrific occurrences have no apparent cause—these people may not have committed a wrongdoing or any otherwise immoral act to deserve such a punishment—they occur anyway, subjecting the unfortunate victims to unfair tragedy. The inability of humanity to find reason behind these unjust events relates to the philosophical school of absurdism, and in particular, the amorality of the universe, a key…
approaching, giving a 110% performance, finding a role model, and most importantly, have fun. Good sportsmanship begins with the understating of sports principles, which present innumerable opportunities to learn skills that last a lifetime. Sportsmanship is a skill which is developed. Poor sportsmanship is learned just like good sportsmanship. We can see the type of sportsmanship a person has through their interactions with people. They can go up to individual from the other team, shake hands,…
The words “pizza taxi” may seem totally random to you, but to me and two of my best friends, Dani and Jaime, it’s a symbol of our crazy, unpredictable friendship. In the novel, How to be Bad, the three main characters, Jesse, Vicks, and Mel, resemble us in many ways; fears, personalities, beliefs, and relationships. My friends and the book crew of girls are perfect examples of how opposites attract. The resemblances start with Jaime, and Jesse being an uptight, thoughtful, “Christian Pants”,…
not the only person that cares about their reputation there is one more person that clearly cares about it. One more person that only care about their reputation is John Proctor. John Proctor is an actual good man who in my opinion was falsely accused of witchcraft. When he was trying to keep his reputation good, he was just trying to do what he thought was best for him, cause he knew what was actually happening. When they were trying to get him to confess he did not want to write his name…
more: exercise, get out, get up, do errands and socialize. Patients feel undermined by their family and friends who have no true appreciation and empathy for how bad it really is. As one Patient in Dallas said, ”I need to proactively complain so that people don’t assume I’m good and pass judgement on what I am doing or not doing for my family.” And so they largely feel alone as the battle wages on in their bodies and against their joints. Many shared that they felt depressed and just sharing…
I used to rely on his prayers to “get me through.” Praying when I thought about it. Totally forgetting those scriptures about the importance of prayer. That made me ignorantly bulletproof; ignorant and inexperienced at its finest. Let me digress for a moment about being an ordinary Christian. Back then, I did not ascertain that as a slap in the face to God. I did not smoke, I did not drink, I was not allowed to date, so I didn 't sleep around… I was just Reverend So and So’s daughter. Now that…
