According to Johnson, the Hmong have three souls that clarify the relationships between the human body and spirit. (Johnson 130, 2002) These souls are: one that stays with the body after death, one that wanders but returns to the body after death, and one that protects from harm and death.

from plastic or metal that takes the place of the body part that was lost in order for you to maintain a proper functionality within society. I think a better solution is just around the corner.

Yorkshire Terriers, I have my hands full, but receive enormous amounts of love and companionship from my “babies.” On nights that homework was not piled up on the desk, all four of us took advantage of getting rest. I never needed a blanket because their body heat was definitely warm enough, but if I did have a blanket, I could forget about ever getting up. One on my left, one on my right, and one at my feet did not allow for much movement, and as a dog lover, you know better than to move a…

water, and shelter. The most important out of those three is arguably water. Unlike food you can only last without water for ninety hours, whereas you can go without food for weeks at a time. The reason the human body cannot last without water is simply because the body composition of a human is 70% water.
