The Wrong Road

for the better. And you can’t do better unless someone points out what you are doing wrong that’s causing drama and problems in your life. I have prayed about it and read about it and I have gained a little balance but it still is a question that comes up for me often. Then I had the pleasure of meeting John the Uber driver. In his previous life he was a social worker who eventually became a social worker with a drinking problem. He put that issue behind him and moved on but he told me as an Uber driver he gets a lot of…

As most counselling professionals work in teams, this is easier for them to know what to do and also easier in helping them in their work. Morality is often defined as how an individual thinks about what is right and what is wrong and also think weather if what they are about to do is considered good or bad behaviour. Morality is also often drawn from temptation of the individual and also greed for example if an individual were to find a bag of money on the floor, would that individual take it…

The terms structure and direction can seem overwhelming and difficult to understand, but when trying to comprehend certain issues, events, or ideas, those terms can help in the distinguishing between right and wrong. Structure and direction can also help in understanding how some things are the way they are and how they got that way. Everyone can have their own ideas of how structure and direction apply to certain issues also, which sometimes allows for disagreement. Using my own interpretation…

When defining the word ethics, I think of it as a moral guideline of what is right and wrong. How do we define what is right and what is wrong is based upon how we were taught and raised. As a person with Chinese background, I believe culture plays a huge role in defining ethics. Born as a Chinese American, I often find it hard for myself to fit into the “Chinese group” while attending at Penn State. Probably because I never had any Chinese friends prior to college. I grew up in a small town in…

The courts got it all wrong; they jailed the wrong man! In 1999, a student at Woodlawn High School was accused of murdering his ex-girlfriend. His name was Adnan Syed; he was accused, tried, and convicted of murdering a fellow student. The body of Hae Min Lee, an eighteen-year-old senior, was found in Leakin Park. When the state wrongly convicted him for Hae Min Lee’s murder, the prosecutors used testimonies from suspects that were inconsistent and they attempted to vilify him to make him out to…

the narrative by saying he “wished there existed someone to whom I could say that I was sorry” (239). A true hero never had so many sleepless nights. Throughout the novel, Fowler’s guilt bleeds through. When remembering Pyle, Fowler remarks, “I never knew a man who had better motives for all the trouble he caused” (74). It is hard not to compare Pyle and Fowler here. By Fowler’s own admission, the American’s motives were more admirable than his own. This is what drives Fowler’s guilt; he…

marriage. Her sarcastic tone in that line stresses how women have no power at all, and they can only “rise” to power if men give them that power through marriage. Her sarcasm also suggests that marriage will not let them rise to power at all. In fact, they will become even more trapped by their husbands and therefore lose their agency. Similarly, Mary Wollstonecraft’s novel, Maria depicts a woman trapped in marriage with female protagonist Maria being literally unjustly imprisoned by her…

Denny needed a drink. That’s what he decided. But he thought better of it. Too much was happening to be getting drunk. Yes, it was his vacation—classic drinking time—but even so. He felt like he’d been pretty much cleared by this Detective Washington, but the fact of the matter was that the scumbag who killed Rashida was still out there. And Denny was determined to help find the guy. Then again, he remembered Jimmy Clarke. He didn’t want to end up a fall guy like Jimmy had. Thirty-six months in…

The Road Life is all about decisions and mistakes. Have you ever been lost in the woods, is it easy to take the wrong path? Yes, and once people get so far down it and make all of these turns, its hard to find their way back when it's the wrong path. Robert Frost did not know what road was better. Sometimes in life people do not know the right path and sometimes they look equally as good, but they will have to test them. He took the one less traveled, how do you tell which one is good and…
