This additional quality relies on upon the symbol which it portrays; the more appealing the image is, the higher the additional worth is, which can surpass generation costs ten times and that's only the tip of the iceberg.

Global warming has been used in so many articles to show that the effects of emissions, and pollution are killing the earth. One of the scares I remember reading about was focused on the icebergs melting and raising the sea level. People were raising awareness that the ice was melting off little by little each year and if they continued the world would be submerged under water due to global warming. Is it true that the ice is melting? Undoubtedly…

many rebellious teenagers across America. BRING ME THE HORIZON’s lead vocalist and lyricist, Oliver Sykes, is one of the most recognizable rock-stars in the current generation for hardcore, punk-rock music. Sykes’ success was just the tip of the iceberg because underneath all the fame and riches, he was a heartbroken drug-addict in recovery.

However, the thought deepened further, when I first saw a close relative of mine getting a renal transplant, when I was 14 years old. I was amazed by the beauty of profession. My assumption was that only inanimate objects were repairable, however the thought of replacing a damaged organ was…

Everyone on Planet Earth is a liar; harsh but true. Every day we say “Yes, I am okay” or “No, I did not steal the cookie.” These are examples of the millions of lies told, big or small. In the short story The Ways We Lie, the author described ten types of lies: lies of delusion, lies of omission, lies of dismissal, or white lies (Ericsson 409-416). Upon reflection, I realized that I am guilty of telling many lies to save my image, to get out trouble, or to protect other people. The first lie I…

When you are finally seen, you are stared at, as if you are an animal in zoo. This might just be a tip of the iceberg of the everyday life that an autistic child is going through. I never had a chance to be genuine empathetic to them until I interned at Qingcongquan, one of China’s leading institute for autistic children. My first days at the institute…
