As Helen Keller once said, “Keep your face to the sunshine and you will not see a shadow.” This can also mean that the most effective way of getting through a crisis is to have a positive outlook, and not to focus on the negatives. In Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl — a series of journal entries that Anne Frank wrote while she and her family were hiding from the Nazi regime — Anne attempts to have a positive attitude no matter what the circumstances. She fought for her own life and for her…

Compassion also means to have genuine concern for all of humanity. We need to be compassionate to not only to the close people around our lives but to notice the suffering of strangers. We need to practice random acts of kindness and expect nothing in return. If you see someone on the street help them, give a donation to a worthy charity, or give meaningful advice to someone. There is this quote by Munshi Premchand that says “wealth and compassion are opposites”. This…

Firstly, Scout assumes the worst of Boo Radley. In the beginning of the novel, Scout says she was so scared “To face Boo Radley and his bloody fangs” (Lee 64). Scout saw Boo as a monster and not a person. She created this image of him from all the stories she had heard. She does not give him the benefit of the doubt and believes all the stories about him. To add on, Scout explains that “Every night-sound I heard from my cot on the back porch was magnified threefold; every scratch of feet on…

the corruption of society by proclaiming how greed leads to the destruction of mankind. Through his use of mockery, absurdity, and irony, Twain expresses his dismay towards the corruption of society by condemning the acts of greed.

began as law enforcement resources from Federal, State, and local agencies joined together in searching for the remaining suspect. The implementation of this organized manhunt along with the fear of not knowing who was carrying out these terrifying acts basically shut down the Boston area as local authorities (law enforcement and city leaders) asked the public to stay in their homes as the Police basically went door to door looking for the alleged suspect. Eventually the last suspect was…

Sexual Objectification of Women If a woman today is asked if she has ever felt uncomfortable due to an unwanted compliment from a man, she will probably say yes.

If a woman is asked if she has ever tried to lose weight or considered reconstructive surgery to get closer to an ideal body, she will probably say yes. These are all examples of sexual objectification and potential…

perspective, whereas during the meditation, not much thinking took place, and the pet-time with my dog back home distracted me and brought me great joy. This activity taught me new, more effective coping strategies. Next, we kept a gratitude and random acts of kindness log. Doing this, I definitely noticed a positive feeling or sensation after each, especially the gratitude list. I 'm going to try to do this more often, because I take a lot of things for granted. Lastly, for the final activity…

We all consider nurses to be angels, but in this case, there was no random act of…
