Rain streamed through my hair and down my body. Soaked from warming up in the downpour, runners stood at the starting line—Not all as excited as me. After tearing a ligament in my foot a month prior, my foot healed enough to run Sectionals. I wore the “space” boot until my warm-up when I switched to training shoes. As soon as the team and I started running, sharp pain told me that my foot demanded more time to heal—I neglected the pleas of my foot. Why the excitement in such a painful situation…
other hand Achilles won eternal glory by declining the option for a longer, more comfortable life. Fighting in battles proves the honor and integrity of the individual. Evading war exhibits poor priorities and fear. However the Iliad does not ignore the consequences of war. Men die horrible deaths and women are taken from their families to become slaves. “My mother Thetis tells me that there are two ways in which I may meet my end. If I stay here and fight, I will not return alive but my name…
but rather a simple recollection of the forms we viewed in heaven. The immortal soul departs from the body upon death, ascends to the heavens where it views the forms and then re-enters another body. The forms themselves are immutable, perfect and eternal ideas which earthly substances try to imperfectly mimic, and are the primary reference for all things. The philosopher holds this view that one must know the forms through the forms, explaining why he believes we all possess some latent memory…
"tranquil," "calm," and "sweet", the scene is described as "fair". In the second part of the stanza, the tone is more depressed and more inconsistent. For example: ...“you hear the grating roar of pebbles which the waves draw back, and fling, at their return”... The words "grating roar" is not a calm or peaceful sound anymore, it indicates the image that…
All the wicked individuals who deliberately commit the undeniable and unforgivable sin of disposing of their pure recyclables into the devil’s snare of the landfill shall be cast into the fiery inferno of hell. The burning fires beneath them shall smother them with toxic fumes of burning plastic to cleanse them of the terrible sin they have committed before God. The devil’s snare grows deep and wider as the sins of the human race claw at its edges. The sinners look down before it with no remorse…
is impelled by your actions. It is the end of samsara and is achieved by overcoming greed and desire. When moksha is finally achieved, your atman returns to its source, Brahman. Atman is loosely translated to soul. Each living thing has an eternal soul that came from Brahman, the cosmic soul and the source of life. When you reach enlightenment your eternal essence becomes one with Brahman once more and you are liberated from the suffering and impurities of the…
In the lecture, “Why I Am Not a Christian” Bertrand Russell delivers his thoughts on Christianity and the belief in God. Russell makes several claims and reasons on why he is not a Christian throughout this speech. He presents many theories and arguments about how God couldn’t possibly exist. Many of these reasons he gives have even been “proven” by a multitude of scholars and scientists. Although Bertrand Russell makes some compelling arguments he makes many illogical fallacies within his…
Same-sex relationships have always had a difficult time being represented properly in the media. Society seems to naturally resist change, so this lack of acceptance is likely to be encountered. Until recently, homosexuality has been widely considered unacceptable by the general population. Even though today society is far more accepting of the practice, there is still considerable resistance to it. Despite the fact that the media seems to have a difficult time properly representing same-sex…
science fiction writers to be influenced by Nietzsche theory of eternal recurrence. Nietzsche’s explains the theory of eternal recurrence in “The Gay Science” as; “ This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable amount of times more; and there will be nothing new in it, but every pain and every joy and every thought and sigh and everything unutterably small or great in your life will have to return to you, all in the same succession and sequence.”…
