grandmother I found out somethings my family carried that I didn’t know mainly because I never sat down and asked questions about my heritage. I figured only people on TV or rich families or people who moved to Africa had a lot to offer about a heritage. When in fact every family has a heritage that dates back. My grandmother informed me that in her early years around her mid-twenties she had graduated college and become a nurse becoming the first female in our family to ever go to college and…

It is well said by Orison Swett Marden that “There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow.” Hope is a feeling that brings a sense of belonging as to what awaits the next day.

Together, they mix morals learned from their predecessors and build a family together based on those values. Inadvertently,…

The social environment has an impact on goal-oriented motivation. When we are teaching, we have to be positive role modelss for children so as educators we should give self-direction, self-determination, and self regulation.

Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory identifies “interpersonal relations” (1979, p.22) as a key element in the…

meanest of them sparkled.” This imagery of the woods overshadows the evilness that prevails onto the family at the end of the story. This short story is about a family who doesn’t seem to get along very well. They bicker about everything and some of the characters are very nonchalant. O’Connor does not seem to want her readers to like these characters at all. At the beginning of this story the family talks about going on a trip to Florida. The grandmother tries to persuade and manipulate her…
