Euthanasia means “good death,” it is the act of taking one’s life. In a sense it is a “good death,” euthanasia is often a pain free death whether it is physician assisted, a poison ingested by one self or the rejection of medical treatment. Those who considering to be euthanized are suffering. They may be struggling physically, emotionally, spiritually or mentally, or a combination of difficulties. Throughout this semester I have learned about several individual’s battles, thoughts and opinions…

Loyalty "Never, never, never give up." - Winston Churchill The Greek word for loyalty is πίστη, which in simple terms means “faithful.” Loyalty in English means “the quality of being loyal to a person or thing.” Faith in Greek is πίστις and means belief, trust, confidence, and faithfulness. The two Greek words are very similar, but do not confuse them. As humans we look for loyalty in people, and though they may try – it is inevitable they will fail. When we place expectations on people…

Many people believe, that in the book “Lord of the Flies”, evil is stronger than good. I disagree. The evidence points to the fact that evil is not as powerful as good. The book shows good will always survive. The novel also shows that there is good in everyone. This doesn’t mean that everyone is good, but it shows that everyone has some type of good in them. What leads this to be true is that without darkness, light can’t overshine, but without light there isn’t any darkness to overshine in the…

Special Forces Operator “De Oppresso Liber” translates to “Liberate the Oppressed.” One must interpret the connotation of that phrase, and harness that feeling in order to make a positive difference in this world. In the words of Ellie Weisel, “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented” (http://holocaust.hklaw.com/essays/2010/Kirstin_Ney.pdf). Everyone should strive to help those oppressed as it is not…

"Life is full of fake people, trust no one".That is something that I have been told over and over again since I was little. All my life trust has never been an issue with me, I didn't think twice about it. Until last year I thought I could trust my boys with something that could put me away for a long time. But they taught me a lesson, I can't trust anybody. My mama said I'm "Cursed with a blessing". When I moved to Suffolk, Virginia I didn't have any friends, and I used to get bullied in…

Good and evil: simply put, every person on Earth has both sides. Although the two are complete opposites, they coexist as a part of human nature — under a pleasant exterior, everyone has another side. The idea of these two qualities is explored in The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (John W. Lowell Company, 1886). One day, while on their weekly stroll, the distinguished lawyer Mr. Utterson and his friend Enfield pass by a mysterious and unkempt house. Enfield then tells Mr. Utterson of a…

Good guys are they good or are they actually bad? In Cormac McCarthy’s book The Road, the son argues with the father about if the good guys are actually good or if they are bad. A good example of the boy and the father arguing is, you wanted to know what the bad guys looked like. Now you know. The good guys are an example of good guys that can be also portrayed as bad guys as well. The good guys are people that will take care of you, help you, and not hurt you at all. The good…

Courage is the rare trait that involves feeling fear but not listening to it. Courage is living by a higher ideal. It is living with a purpose that is greater than the fear. If there is no fear, then courage cannot be exercised. Wisdom without courage is weak, and courage without wisdom is dangerous. Beowulf is a perfect example of this. He acted on courage without wisdom and acted foolishly. He was more focused on furthering his own name and accomplishments. Pride produces blind courage,…

In today’s world, revenge is a popular solution to problems. We often want others to get what they deserve, often in retribution for something they did to us. Many people believe this is the best way to get even with someone who did us wrong. Despite this, revenge does not help us get even, and instead harms us. Due to this, it is clear that forgiveness is a much better way to move forward after being mistreated. As previously mentioned, revenge is harmful. However, this goes further, because…
