I told her about my mom. I told her about my past and my outlooks on the future. I told her bout how I felt and I was confused. She was the first person to know about my sexuality and how for a part of my life I found myself falling in love with a girl. This was hard for considering I grew up in a Christian family and I could never tell my mother. Latisha made it all seem so easy. She mad all my doubt and all my fear seem so pointless. She told me that any god that loved me would want…

where they lie is a reoccurring theme in Shakespeare’s Much Ado about Nothing; be it alliances between gender, age or couple groups. In this play we see the effects of loyalty- and the lack thereof- in love through Benedick and Beatrice, as well as Claudio and Hero. Although both pairs claim to be in love at the end, Beatrice and Benedick’s relationship is built on much more solid ground than that of Claudio and Hero, as they had known each other for quite some time and remained loyal to one…

emotions. Addressed in “More Human than Human” written by Chung Chin-Yi, clones, although created artificial, have their own original and unique emotion. He even states, “…it is the clones who are capable of emotional depths and compassion as well as love while it is the humans who commit atrocities and are inhumane,” (Chin-Yi, 1). Chin-Yi claims the clones do in fact have souls, and are more human than the humans although they are mere copies. While Ishiguro does paint the clones as soulful…

Crawford is not a ‘new black woman’, rather she represents a black identity that continues the tradition of fighting for freedom. For Janie those freedoms are: of Romance, of Voice, and of Beauty. The dream for Janie, at the age of 16, was love; that through marriage, love would come naturally — but that was not…

There is a deeper meaning and a more direct use of the word, and the idea. Nothing is more important than love, and no subject than it is so often misused. In its deeper sense love is often looked upon as a Christian or moral viewpoint and not something that can or should be applied outside of that to the common…

poem explores on the theme of love, religion nature; love being the central aspect, but the poet does not address the poem to any speaker, rather it explores on the reasoning of love as a concept. The second poem of analysis will be on Elizabeth Barrett’s poem: Sonnet 43. Barrett was born in 1806 and was recognised as an English poet of the Romantic Movement and was a very prominent poet during her era, both in the U.S and the U.K. Barrett also shows the theme of love, nature and religion in her…

short stories The Moment of Conception and Fifty Ways to Eat Your Lover preserves and capitalizes her consistency to deliver grotesque, surreal parables that mask the simple attributes of the human condition to love, understand love, and the surreal journey as well as the destination that love can take one person.
