Projective identification is when a person project their negative emotions into someone else. However, I believe it can also be positive emotions as well. When a person is not happy with themselves, they tend to makes others unhappy by projecting on them. On the other hand, there are professionals that project positive emotions on to others.

"Hills Like White Elephants" is a very disturbing story by Ernest Hemingway about two characters that are arguing at a train station. I read this story several times and it pissed me off more, the more times I read it. The two characters are an American man and a lady known as Jig.

I think this is the best example of propaganda ever written to convince educated people that…

However, to present good fashion one must meet society’s beauty standards right? That is wrong. We should be promoting beauty on all sizes, colors and races. Models should not have a minimum weight limit because it puts a border line on beauty, lowers self-esteem and even though it helps prevent eating disorders it also supports society’s negative body image views. Everyone has beauty, therefore the number on the scale cannot define an individual. By putting a minimum weight limit on models,…

Procrastination Procrastination is a disease of laziness that plagues every person in the world. In two passages, “A Stitch in Time” and “Structured Procrastination”, the authors show two completely different biases on procrastination. “A Stitch in Time” shows the reader that procrastination harms a person’s everyday productivity. On the other hand, “Structured Procrastination” shows the reader how to better manage their time and tasks. In addition, “A Stitch in Time” is very upfront and berates…

Throughout these long 17 years I have learned that human beings are bound to make mistakes and have flaws. And we love to feed off others mistakes and flaws , its what we do. Nobody in this world filled with 7.4 billion people is quote on quote "perfect". But yet everything we do or say, is judged and criticized. We want to be strictly politically correct while living in a politically incorrect world....But how is that possible when you are surrounded by everything politically incorrect? Do us…
