areas for me I have to be able to communicate and do it academically correct. I do not want to be looked at like a fool for not being able to write correctly in the professional world. Nobody wants to have a nurse that doesn’t know how to write a sentence or paragraph. We want our nurses to have the skills and education to know what they are talking about in words and on paper.

The meaning of law for me is the system of rules that our country has for regulating the actions of its habitants enforce by penalties if rules are not respected. One personal perspective I have about freedom is that the people can express their self in anyway they want but always been very respectful to not harm any other person. In my own aspect the…
