difficulty. Her mother and grandmother exposed Marji to reality at a young age, so she would not be afraid of it when she grew older. Both radiated love on her, always making sure that she knew how important she was to them. They raised her in such a way that allowed her to keep an open mind, but to always be conscious about her ancestor 's fight for freedom. A sense of pride was instilled, a pride in her heritage and the country in which she was raised. This allowed her to remain true to…

Others also approved of Miller’s criticism of the American dream, and felt that Miller’s plays constitute “some of the most devastating comments ever made on the American way of life” (Riley 332). Critical acclaim from fellow peers and critics aside, in an ocean of praise there are bound to be currents flowing in opposite directions.

Being the youngest in the Sober Living, I live at, it’s like I have six moms and/or older sisters. All of the women have inspired me with their recovery and learning a new way of life, as so am I. One of the ladies I live with Tiffany P. (for anonymity reasons can’t write her full name; she is in a 12 Step program as I am) is a Hawaii-born lady, straight from Honolulu, Hawaii. The reason why I’m writing about her and not the other five ladies, is because our story starts in Acton Rehab almost…

In his essay “People Like Us,” David Brooks acknowledges that American society as a whole does not really embrace diversity and equality.

When the mills first opened in the south in the early 20th century, they opened a new world and a new way of life but not a new amount of money.

A weakness that they have is that they feel as though they do not have any creative sort of gene in them. Having a negative mindset won’t help you…

I learned that once I actually started to acknowledge and care about my bad habit was the only way I would be willing to change it. Working on my time management was hard but not nearly impossible. I had to change my outlook on certain things so that my mindset would be prepared and ready for change. I believe I was successful in working…

During my visit to the Memorial Art Gallery, they were and still are showing M. C. Escher: Reality and Illusion along with other exhibitions. Many of his artworks seemed to correspond to the topics discussed in class. There were several artworks that stopped my eyes. Out of those artworks, Stars created in 1948 is a wood engraving portraying two chameleons in a hollow octahedron 3-compound with other similar, smaller figures colored in yellow, blue, and pink in the solid black background.
