A good mother is hardworking and understanding. A good mother will show you unconditional love and affection but also show discipline. My mother is one good mother who does every single thing that was listed…
to Hawaii and it had finally happened. We had been planning the trip for over a year and before I knew it, I was already there on the gorgeous island of Maui. The first morning we were there we decided to go up to the summit of Haleakala to watch the sunrise. Haleakala is a volcano that has been dormant since 1790. The summit of Haleakala is so serene and definitely one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. The summit of Haleakala is over 10,000 miles above seal level, and it forms…
personal death, including: the ways I would wish to die and to not die, the age I wish to reach for my passing, my desired funeral preparations, and the disposition of my body after life. Death, by my own personal definition, is not only the complete lack of brain stem function and irreversible cessation of the brain, but also the closing statement of my thoughts, feelings, opportunities, and experiences. It is the beginning of my return to the star dust of which I…
Every person who takes creative writing has to make a statement about hum in condition. The statement of the writer about humanity and human life can never be completely objective. It usually has a dash of subjectivity in it. As a writer can never be absolutely objective, so he can never be absolutely subjective. he is either more subjective than objective or more objective than subjective.

What would they do if someone expressed a hateful, racist attitude? Would they confront the person, walk away, or let it pass? How can students state their opinions in a way that does not make them look conceited or self-important? Can they really make a difference in society and the attitudes of those around them? Most people, presumably students, ignore or internalize offhand and offensive remarks as it typically ‘does not concern them’. They tend to avoid confronting the commenter to avoid…
I want to hate Amir. I really, really want to hate Amir. Beginning in 1975, Khaled Hosseini’s intriguing novel, The Kite Runner, highlights the differences in the Pashtun and Hazara cultures of Afghanistan. Specifically, the uncommon friendship between Amir, a Pashtun, and his Hazara servant, Hassan. The two young boys grew up together, and were even breastfed by the same woman. They are almost always inseparable. Both of their mothers are out of the picture: Amir’s dead and Hassan’s somewhere…
Rosa Parks once said that “Racism is still with us. But it is up to us to prepare our children for what they have to meet, and, hopefully, we shall overcome”. This is my favourite quote from Rosa Parks. I really love this quote because in this quote, it shows that we can’t avoid racism if we do nothing. we can’t achieve anything without doing anything. That’s why this quote shows us that we should face the challenge not by running away from it but to overcome this challenge until it is no longer…
Rape is one of the filthiest, most vile crimes imaginable.It is a silencer and a brainwasher. It always includes violence and assault. It ruins the purity and damage the soul in the victim. Still, in our 21st century, rape's punishment is nothing compared to other crimes and nothing can happen if the rape is not proved which is hard in many cases. Kids who get raped do not really understand what is going on. Kids and young children are still exploring and they still do not know what "sex" is…
“I love you” (65). That is the most elaborate expression Christian can say to Roxane. Christian has the looks, but can’t woo her with his words. Christian’s looks are the only thing that impress Roxane. Not even the braveness of Christian being a soldier has an affect on Roxanne. She is only after his looks. Christian also wants to impress her with his words. He tries to at one point, but chokes and can’t say the right words. Christian cannot express how much he loves Roxane, that is why…
