Farewell

Saying goodbye to your family, to leave and live in another country must be one of the hardest decisions someone may have to face.

Ladies and gentleman, as you are all aware, the times we are living in are greatly depressing. We don’t have the money to provide to our wives and children an we are giving up on the things we favoured the most. We are in extreme crisis and President Hoover is leaving it up to us to solve the problem. We are all on our own but I say we shouldn’t wait for our profits to “trickle down” to us. We need government involvement in our economy that will recover our consumer demand, it will reform our…

14: John 14 begins a four chapter section (14-17), commonly known as the “Farewell Discourse”. It is primarily composed of Jesus' utilizing his final moments with his disciples to teach them and assure that his ministry will not fail upon his impending crucifixion. John’s theology here becomes dense, as a lot of what Jesus addresses here would have been relevant to the Johannine community in particular. The Farewell Discourse follows a basic pattern, as it was a recognizable genre at this…

In the Farewell Discourse, Jesus provides various examples as to what love can be displayed to be. John 15 provides an explicit example in which Jesus provides a reference of love in relation with both vines and branches. Jesus explains to his disciples, “Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit” (John 15:2). By Jesus expressing this statement, he simply states that by having a relationship with God, one…

phrase said by George Washington. The first president of the United States was an incredible man. He was an amazing leader that had courage. George Washington issued the Neutrality Proclamation, stopped the Whiskey Rebellion, and had a marvelous Farewell Address. Did he assure the rights of our people? I believe that George Washington protected the rights of our nation. The rights of citizens were protected by and important to, George Washington. The Neutrality Proclamation proves this…

Manzanar Final Write Up: Contrary to most people, I did not enjoy the book “Farewell to Manzanar”. The story itself was only partly interesting and I personally am not a fan of non-fiction. Real life is almost never as interesting as someone else's imagination. In addition, reading a non-fiction war story only made me sad since it actually happened. Jeanne Wakatsuki (the author and narrator) was the character I connected to the most. Just like me, she was the youngest in her family.…

Their relationship is like any other, therefore is it really love without some tragedy? When Frederic and Catherine first meet they really…
