Greatest Hits Vol. 1

When an true epiphany hits it's never a quiet or subtle event, it strikes you like an elephant falling through the ceiling. Surprising in its action, and befuddling in its reason. Its a very rare occurrence and should never be taken lightly or dismissed without pondering it for what it is. Spiritual folk will see it as a sign from on high. Less attuned people will view it as luck or serendipity. Whichever school of thought one hails from, the end result is the same, the presentation of a life…

On late Friday morning, Mr. Johnson left his house and talked to his neighbor Edward Nygma who had recently lost his wife in a car accident. “Good morning Edward,” Mr. Johnson said, “how are you doing today?” “I’m doing ok, I guess.” Edward replied, “just a little tired.” “Well here’s some cash to go buy yourself something nice today,” Mr. Johnson said Mr. Johnson then walked down the street a couple of blocks through the busy crowd. When he bumps into a…

At my best, I am driven and determined, working towards a goal. I am passionate about what I study and what I do, and I use that passion to drive my work ethic. My goal has always been to achieve to the best of my ability and to know that I am doing my absolute best in every situation, whatever the domain. I strive to reach my potential and to know that there was nothing more I could have done to improve. As one of my friends described, a large part of my best self is “your drive and ambition to…

If I was caring for Tom, I would call the doctor to inform him or her that I will not administer blood to Tom, just as Eliese did, because he expressed clearly he does not want to receive the blood. Although, it would be difficult, as the patients advocate I believe we must respect their wishes and beliefs. The only way his family member’s wishes would outweigh Tom’s, the patient’s, wishes was if he was mentally unstable, but that wasn’t the case during this scenario. No matter what beliefs we…

Hi readers! I would love to start off by saying I had absolutely no intention of writing about anything truly personal for my first post. But for some reason this was weighing on my heart to share with you. I'm gonna be talking about being broken. Just the other day Sabrina posted a beautiful post titled, Embracing the Broken Pieces, where she shared her brokenness and the love of God that a sweet woman showed her! After reading her piece I knew for sure I was supposed to share this. Because…

This essay looks to discuss my assumption that the best interpretation of a work of literature is the author’s intention for the work, as it is the basis for the work. This paper criticises this assumption as it does not allow for a sufficient understanding of literature and since there is no way to prove that there is a best interpretation. The paper offers a new assumption to alleviate these problems which states that a set of interpretations which have sufficient textual evidence are the…

I always wanted to be friends with Zoey. I remember in 3rd grade I saw her at recess. I went over to talk to her because my friend was over there. I thought she was really cool. We talked for a little bit, and she told me how she had to run extra laps in gym because she was talking. I laughed. I didn't really think that we would be friends, but I guess things change. When I was in sixth grade and she was in eighth we talked a lot. I remember at a school dance we had a slapping contest. We saw…

Often some of the greatest discoveries hold the greatest mysteries. Discovered by sponge divers in 1902, the Antikythera Mechanism, often thought of as the first underwater archaeology find, is no exception. Careful studies have dated this artefact to the first century B.C., but the artefact has the appearance and complexity of a much later time in history. Now believed to be an elaborate calendar and astronomical device, the Antikythera Mechanism harbours its mystery within its intricate inner…
