How You Remind Me

to be involved in a nursing mission trip to Honduras. I was able to serve multiple underprivileged villages throughout Honduras. What lead me here, is wanting to join others in the challenge of providing the upmost care to communities less fortunate than us. It all starts with a love that pushes you endlessly to care for your patients. This experience lead me to building intimate bonds with children and their families that I will cherish for a life time. On this trip I got to educate families on…

The quote/saying “Shoot for the moon; if you miss you'll land among stars,” is great. It stands out and is either good or bad. I think it’s more good than bad. I believe this because I think it means to give it all even with risks. Lastly it reminds me of a song which is called you're the best around. To me this means that if I try my best and I don't succeed i'll still get something out of it. This is when ill land among the stars comes in, which to me means I will get knowledge and an…

frequently with envy as well. In one sense, I think envy is slightly more specific than pride; for this reason, this chapter caused me to focus less on the big picture and to consider instead how envy impacts my relationships with particular people. After reading Guinness’ insights, I realized that I can harness envy as a tool for self-evaluation; in addition, I learned both how envy can evolve from healthy desires and what this sin reveals about my attitude towards other people and God. An…

1.What did you find most interesting about the case? The most interesting thing about this case was the fact that it was about grandparents raising grandchildren. For me when I think of family taking care of family it is more along the lines of a child taking care of a parent who is sick. It was interesting seeing this from a different view. While this was the most interesting aspect of the case, it was also interesting how little policies there are out there to help grandparents raising…

things in nature. This reminds me of the movie of Pocahontas were she would listen to the spirits and she taught John Smith about them. She showed how in their culture you respected the earth. To say nature is full of spirit can be a way of affirming the presences both universal and essential. Particular objects can have great spirits like a rock, tree, or river. Yoruba of Africa believe that great storms are controlled by Shango, a king with great heavenly powers. This reminds me of Greek’s and…

Vanitas art represents the swiftness of life, decline and to end with: death. They remind the viewer that death is inevitable and human life is fragile. My piece specifically represents whether we are in the 17th century or present day; death and the passage of time is certain. Nothing is ever promised in life, no matter how young you look or your earthly possessions. Life is not constant and predictable, and you’re only constant in life is death. I used skulls in my collage because they…

the ones that cause pain. I agree that you not everything is going to be happy things and that running away from the situations will only make things worse. In order to have a rainbow you need sunshine and…

his grandmother as a life that happened long ago. However, he discovered that she a person “And then you find out that she’s a person. She’s somebody.” and also that they have difficulties in their life too “They exist outside of their relationship to me.”, so he learned that his grandmother isn’t just his grandmother but a mother, wife, and a person who had problems in her life. This reminds me a lot of my experiences when I think other people…

Have you had a friend that you can tell anything to with no fear of judgement, shaming or them telling anyone? Maybe a friend who will go on a road trip in the middle of the night to a fast food restaurant you thought was 24-hours only to find out it wasn’t? How about a friend who would drop everything at 1 o’clock in the morning to pick you up from a party because you thought it would be a good idea to experiment with hallucinogens? Well, I have, Seven years ago I met a crazy beautiful,…

My first impression when I viewed Mouth (for L'Oréal), New York, by Irving Penn, was wow, it’s so beautiful and colorful. When you look at this picture, you see a person’s lips with several different lipstick colors on them. The subject of this painting is obviously the lipstick, the colors in the pictures are different shades of red, purple, pink and brown, they are the focus point. The lipstick makes texture on the lips, creating a beautiful three-dimensional effect. I see several lines in…
