When one thinks of a hero, he or she would likely think of a character able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, or a person with laser beam eyes.This concept of a hero is severely outdated. Heroism isn’t an elusive quality only found in our favorite comic book heros. Everyone performs heroic acts daily, whether it be on a large scale such as saving a life, or a bit smaller such as simply being a good role model to a child. Although the true definition of a hero is somewhat debated, the…

After taking a test I learned my Myers-Briggs Type was Introvert, Sensing, Feeling, and Perception (ISFP). I am actually glad I had taken the test because I think ISFP really fits me, which is great because when I was filling in the blanks I was worried I was not answering truthfully. I think knowing my Myers-Briggs has help me to figure why I study a certain way and why I’m more likely to enjoy certain subjects in school. While I couldn’t relate to everything that goes with being an ISFP for…

Throughout musician David Bowies career the artist discography has covered a large array of subject matter and themes. Noted for his chameleon like ability to shift through personas, ideas and subject matter, Bowie’s work can be sectioned into different thematic movements, from Ziggy Stardust to the Thine White Duke. Yet connections can be drawn and linked throughout his whole musical career. Themes presented in his early work are referenced and connected into Bowie most contemporary albums. A…

I think goal 1, 2, 4 and 8 have done a lot of work and have come a long way. I believe goal 1 has done a lot of work because poverty has significantly declined by more than half, in 1990 it was 1.9 billion and in 2015 it decreased to 836 million. Goal 2 has come a long way in improving education. In 2000 there were 100 million out of school children, and in 2015 there were 57 million. In Sub-Saharan Africa primary school net enrolment has increased up to 80% which is higher than what it was in…

The results of the Jung Typology Test identifies my personality type as being ISTJ. These letters stand for Introverted, Sensing, Thinking, and Judging. The percentage I received for each of the letters ISTJ were (I) 12%, (S) 6%, (T) 1%, and (J) 16%. After reading the explanations of these traits, I tend to see my personality described by some and not by others. You could not really say it “hit the nail on the head”. This personality type is described as having a keen sense of right and wrong,…

“Heroes are everyday common people, most of what they do goes unheralded, unappreciated, and that ironically is heroism”. Being a hero is does not always mean you have superpowers or you wear a cape, you can just be a common person and be a hero at the same time. You could just be the mom who helps their kid with school work or the kid who wants to do well in school. The mom and the kid who don’t want to do those things are not heroes, but they should try and be them. Heroism is helping others,…

I’m sure you’re wondering why my title is declaring that I’m an ISFP and not an INTJ since many tests I’ve taken so far through the years have confirmed that I’m an ISFP, but for the first time ever did I get INTJ which I think I can explain why. I’m almost 39 and have through the years unknowingly work on what we are learning as emotional intelligence through changing various aspects of my personality traits that I and others have considered as negative. I think because I have been studying…

Hero’s come in many different shapes and sizes. Oftentimes a hero is celebrated for the dedication and sacrifice that goes into being a savior to others. In the case of Martin Brody, his heroic actions were not appreciated until the end of his journey. In Jaws, Martin Brody is Identified as a hero because he follows all the steps in the Hero’s Journey. To be a hero there is many steps including, the Ordinary world, Call to adventure, Refusal of the call, Answering the call, Mentors, Talisman,…

My favorite song is Humble and Kind by Tim Mcgraw its topic is pushes out is to be Humble and Kind to all people. Humble and Kind by Tim Mcgraw explains to treat everybody with kindness and to be humble cause you will regret when you are older if you weren’t. In the song Tim Mcgraw says “Always stay humble and kind” what this line to me is that you need to be humble and kind no matter who you are because people notice that and being a good person can help you in anything. When Tim Mcgraw says…

It is true that the best way to understand society is to examine the people they choose as their heroes or role models, no matter what type of hero one considers, whether it is someone universally admired or someone who is supported by only a certain group. Heroes and role models reflect what society believes to be ideal, and even if that hero is not really what they are shown to be in the media, society picks someone based on the image they see. Acknowledging that ideal picture, even if it is…
