the process of the tattooing is more important than the beautiful result. “ If you want to tattoo your whole body, there will be a person spending time to tattoo you and it is really hurt. Also, this process is telling you that there is no way back”, said one of the members from Yamaguchi- gumi. In the Japanese gang culture, tattoo means you pass through the first stage, and there is anything difficulties coming in the future, you can still go through and deal with it. The tattoos have four…
Social norms are rules that are usually not written or explicitly stated and yet govern behavior within a society. The social norms vary from one society to another, they are the product of uses, customs and traditions. They are formed over the years and also vary from one generation to another. There are different social norms depending on the groups to which they belong. Social norms in a professional setting differ from those governing relationships in friendly settings. Also the social…
Positive Mindsets are Positive There are many reasons why positive thinking is beneficial such as it maximizes potential, allows new skills to form, and can help people have more success according to the article “How Your Beliefs Can Sabotage Your Behavior” by James Clear. Positive thinking is a mental attitude in which people expect good results and a fixed mindset is the opposite where people think they can’t get better at something.

conflict; both positive and negative. It's not hard to react angrily to conflict, but it is hard to respond responsibly and respectfully even if the person or thing causing you the conflict isn't showing you the same courtesy. To respond to conflict in a negative manner would mean showing a lack in self control toward the source of the conflict without first trying to fix the situation. In a book I am reading “Things Fall Apart” there is a character named Okonkwo who is known for having a quick…
Censorship is the act of blocking or cutting something out in order for a certain audience/viewer to feel comfortable or unaware of what is being blocked out. Censorship is wrong. It stops people from learning about what is going on around them and doesn’t prepare people for the real world. Many people think that it is wrong for children to hear swears or foul language, but if they never hear the word and are told not to say it, they won't be mature to the word and they will think it is funny.…
The authors Carling-Jenkins, Torr Iacono, & Bigby, (2012), analyzed three detailed case studies which were created from multiple data sources and found that individuals from this associate are currently the maturing era of individuals with Down disorder, and the rest to get by into center and more established age.

is untrue, the average person living there often feels that they are not unique. Pablo Neruda is a famous Latin American poet and his poems “We Are Many” and “Too Many Names” show this feeling through just their titles. One theme that is pervasive in Latin American literature is the lack of individuality. A lack of individuality often causes stress and unease, resulting in some level of conflict. Latin American authors use person versus self, person versus person, and person versus society…
Describe how Li can use the skill of assertiveness when communicating with Kate about their relationship. (What could he say and how could he say it?) Consider both verbal and nonverbal components of assertive communication. Li could sit her down and lay the subject out nice and slow to show that he is not pressuring her and then ask "I think it's time to go to the next level in our relationship" without hesitation but not being forceful about it either. He could use good eye contact to make…
Religion is an outlet that grants individuals the opportunity to convey themselves through their beliefs and behaviors. It is perceived as a crucial aspect to many people’s lives, as it regulates actions and teaches individuals to abide by specific rules and morals.
