And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.” - Eleanor Roosevelt. I feel Eleanor Roosevelt's’ quote really ties together the point of having responsibility.

It was then I felt my true power surge through me. I should back up a little in time and tell you how I got to this point. It all started right before I woke up. I met someone who changed my life.

Eleanor Roosevelt was a marvel piece at a time of The Great Depression.…

The theme in the poem “Eleanor Rigby” is how lonely people can be in a world full of people. The author is portraying how sad Eleanor is, and how the father of the church, Father McKenzie, might seem like the type that would not get lonely, feels the same way as Eleanor.

Being lonely isn’t always just about…

Franklin Roosevelt (FDR), admired his older cousin, and followed his…
