Sadness

n the short story "A Good Man is Hard to Find" the exposition begins with the grandmother bringing attention to an article about a gentleman who calls himself the Misfit and has escaped the penitentiary. The grandmother’s motive is to allure her son from wanting to travel to Florida by telling him the Misfit is headed that way and is causing harm to people. The grandmother wants to go east to Tennessee to show the children something different. Both children John Wesley and June Star think this…

At first, Meursault is distraught and upset by this sentence, but he comes to terms with knowing he will die a prisoner. Meursault knows that he will not escape judgement and death.

He believes that by being beheaded one has to hope that it happens on the first time, otherwise it would be extremely painful and lead to immense suffering. He does not want to rely on anyone else for how he dies. Meursault contemplates an appeal and…

family? Or even our best friends, or our pets? In Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley, we see a society where they have given up all these important pieces of their lives in the name of that supreme element, social stability. There is no pain, limited sadness/stress, and little to no attachment. Sounds pretty dang perfect, right? Well we’ve talked benefits and according to the law of physics there has to be a reaction or some push to the pull. So what’s the push, or the cost? Without these…

keeping my promises that I had made to myself in my head. I hadn’t cried a lot, only a lot of tears here and there. Of course I broke down a little in private, but I brought myself up again because I wanted to be there for my family. I felt that their sadness was more important than mine. That is just the kind of person I am for these situations. I feel like I have to be the controlled one. I was there to hug and comfort my sisters and cry with them a bit when they were crying their eyes out…

our lifetime, whether that is pain, death, loss, sickness, etc. The point of this noble truth is to know that nothing bad (or good) lasts forever. Both happiness and sadness are like a life cycle, in that all feelings make their rounds in our lives. One day we could wake up and lose someone we care about, with that leading to sadness or depression. However, even though those feelings may take time to get through,…

family helping Hazel through tough times, and the bottom right represent the book that Hazel and Gus were obsessed with. I started with the background color for the top half. Which was an ombre coming from both sides from dark blue which represented sadness to yellow which represented happiness. This would show that both characters were somewhat sad about having cancer, but when Hazel and Gus came together they were happy. Then in the corner for Hazel I drew two eyes to represent she is…

The Kids Aren't Alright Stuck in the jet wash Bad trip I couldn't get off And maybe I bit off more than I could chew And overhead of the aqua blue Fall to your knees bring on the rapture Blessed be the boys time can't capture On film or between the sheets I always fall from your window To the pitch black streets And with the black banners raised as the crooked smiles fade Former heroes who quit too late Just wanna fill up the trophy case again And in the end I'd do it all again I think…

There is never an easy way to go about starting the dialog or helping owners through the decision making process. It is important to keep a sympathetic yet professional grace about us when we are helping our clients through the difficulties and sadness that comes from losing their beloved pet. Not all euthanasia’s are the same, and this is true for the manner in which the owners might react or process their grief. Our ability to anticipate and answer owner questions, prepare the patient, and an…

I chose a few key types of figurative language which I think show major points of the book and the messages they are trying to get across. First is Foreshadowing which I think is a key tool to get points across in the book because it pits readers on edge no questioning what is going to happen just as the characters would. The example of foreshadowing is a big look into the future but also put the reader on edge and want to read more in the book "She was howling, pointing through the window: '…
