Peace Breaks Out

Inner Peace I was 11 years old, living with my parents and two older siblings in a four story ranch house in the middle of Hartland, when I found my inner peace. At eleven I was a quiet girl stuck living in a loud house. I would sit still and let my mind wander off into the world of endless possibilities. I would search the sky for shapes, and scavenge through the dirt for rocks, but I would never allow noise while I was working. Until one day in the middle of May when I let mind wander back a…

The Fight For Peace There are so many different perspectives people can take on the overall idea of war. Is it wrong to go? Is it right to send loved ones into that type of danger? Is it all worth it? War is a subject that brings up a lot of controversy, because of its ability to unite a country and tear apart civilization. I believe that war is sometimes necessary to allow a nation to thrive, only if it is the only option left, because I feel the action of war must be taken in order to protect…

inevitably exceed the intended intention. And if so it intends something which is not itself, it reaches out to the intended object, and it basically involves ab excess which is in the relation with the other. For Levinas, In morality, exteriority is maintained and the other remained as the other. The moral realm “proceed(s) from the experience of totality back to a situation where totality breaks up, a situation that conditions the totality itself, such situation is the gleam of exteriority or…

but most often the other person feels blindsided. When that happens, there are a few steps that can be taken to ensure the breakup is carefully heading forward. Kali Roger (2015) says it perfectly, the best way to handle a breakup is to “Talk it out. Get sad. Get angry. Reflect.” Taking space from the other person is the best thing you can do at first. It may be challenging because of school and friends, especially when you live in a small town where anyone knows everything about…

these exact men are the ones responsible for the state’s participation on foreign affairs one can agree that certainly psychological and social-cultural norms can greatly influence in their decision to go or not to war. Conversely, to blame the break out of conflict based only on “human imperfection” can be debated. Waltz dismisses such allegations based on the uselessness of such theory, he explains that if we were to blame human nature for the acts of men then the nature of men would have to…

justification for going to war includes four main postulates that must be met that include war being a last resort, has to be declared by a legitimate authority, must be waged in self-defense or to establish/restore justice, and must be fought to bring about peace (in other words, motivation must be just). Second, Jus In Bello, directing how combatants should act during war, includes distinction and proportionality. In other words, just war must distinguish between combatants and noncombatants,…

Scholars have developed some theories that could be applied in the way communication is done in relationships. These theories could talk about couples coming together, their expectations of each other, or maybe about couples breaking up. The movie The Break-Up shows one kind of how relationships could go. The interpersonal relationship between Gary Grobowski (Vince Vaughn) and Brooke Meyers (Jennifer Aniston) was mostly showing breaking up stages. Many interpersonal…

If memory serves me correctly, Carter Ryan Evancic was the first of the When Calls the Heart kids that I interviewed last year, and he and his parents are people who hold a very special place in my heart for that and many other reasons. This year, it was exciting to get to chat with him again because he has actually won three awards for his portrayal of Cody in this wholesome and uplifting Hallmark Channel show. RH: Nice to get to talk to you again this year, Carter. CRE: Glad to talk to you…

Asia pointed out that while she was waiting for her boyfriend to pick her up, she was at the library. There, she saw Adnan and she was talking to him for about 20 minutes. During the time that they were talking, Hae was murdered. This proves that Adnan is innocent…

Hae and Adnan’s relationship was meant to be kept a secret from family and friends (friends meaning anyone who would relay the news to his parents). Once the break up took place, the prosecutor brought up the idea that Adnan felt betrayed, all because of Adnan’s religion? Adnan’s mother excused the court and jury of discrimination, because they are Muslim. During the trial on March 31, 1999, the…
