Forgiveness is Growth in Love. There are three kinds of forgiveness, all interrelated. There is self-forgiveness, which enables us to release our guilt and perfectionism. There is the forgiveness we extend to others and receive from them, intimates and enemies alike. And there is the forgiveness of God that assures us of our worth and strengthens us for this practice.

Chau uses the repeated caesura to show how disrupted his life now feels. However, Chau adds a sense of comedy through the similes she uses. Comparing the fish’s heart to a fish creates humour in its simplicity. Furthermore, stones do not drink and so the second simile is illogical. Chua also creates humour in the context of the poem, making the male fish’s despair seem even more dramatic.

Measure for Measure is considered a comedy, which is sometimes misleading. Some critics consider the play as being the "dark" element of comedy for its bitterness and cynicism. The play certainly raises important moral issues in its detailed descriptions of Christianity. Measure for Measure can also be called a problem play, because it brings up a difficulty and then seeks to solve it. However, the difficulty lays in misunderstandings and hidden identities as it the moral question of the play.…

which is in turn a compliment to the audience as most of them would live in this city. He then makes a joke about Rick Perry, who was sweating early during his speech. This humour humanises Trump as it shows he can make jokes. This could however be perceived as an attack on Perry instead. Immediately after this he turns his humour towards Lincoln Chaffee and his less-than-full audience. As Trump makes these jokes towards fellow candidates he shows his confidence and that he is not afraid of…
