Statement of Intent My first piece is a creative writing that shows a character being present in a slum similar to, from the characters present in the poem ‘The Blessing.’ Through this I have shown his struggles.

Creative writing The drops from a leaking container fall on my face and awaken me. I wake up laying on the ground and I’m unable to recognise my surroundings. In my…

One of the finest blessings of solar energy is that humans are by no means going to run out of this large electricity aid even for millions of years. That is not something we possibly can say for oil, coal, petroleum, and different fossil fuels that humans have been dependent on for thousands of years. If people need to save the earth from raising carbon-emission gases, pollutants of water, and even global warming, they ought to change the electricity sources they use at present. Seeking more…

The Industrial Revolution has been described as a mixed blessing. I agree with this statement for many reasons. When it says “mixed blessings” it's saying that it had both good and bad effects on people and ways of living. Some good effects/blessings it had were how it increased the production of goods, raise the standards of living, provided hope of improvement in peoples lives, included healthier diets, better housing, mass produced clothing, and expanded educational opportunities. Some…

Socrates gave the argument that there is hope that death is a blessing. However, saying that there is just simply hope that death is a good thing/blessing, is not saying that is absolutely is a good thing/blessing. If someone believes that death is a blessing, then the natural fear of death may disappear and they could live a better, happier life.

honor my parents. I pray that I may walk the narrow road, soften my heart and grant me wisdom. Comfort me with your love, allow me to obey your commands. Guide me oh shepherd, so that I may walk in your ways. Amen Month 1 Day 1 Pray a prayer of blessing We can so easily think of ourselves, that we only pray unto God to bless us. We can so easily be focused on our own needs that we don't consider to pray for others. We can become so self-centred that our prayers become selfish, when we…

with him. Guilty, because all I cared about that day was drinking some Martinelli 's. My dad was dying--I didn 't know it at the time--and I was being a selfish twelve-year-old. The Blessing of Death Over the last fifteen years, my life has had its ups and downs. This might sound strange, but there are huge blessings that came from my father 's death. My father was a man of great faith, and his death taught me to take risks, live in the moment, spend as much time as I can with the people I…

only reach into our pockets and peck at tiny keys to gain access to a world of data”. It takes us less than a millisecond to come across information on a topic that interests us. But is the internet more of a blessing or a curse? Many people may argue that indeed “the internet is a blessing”. However, I believe that since the internet was created, the world has…

curse or a blessing? It can be argued that intelligence can cause problems and in return fix problems. Intelligence and knowledge are a curse and a blessing at the same time. Intelligence and knowledge can make someone feel unjustly superior and they can even begin to “play God.” Power can easily go to a person’s head. They have different effects on a person, and they can cause suffering and happiness, depending on the situation. However, intelligence and knowledge are an incredible blessing…
