One prominent example that demonstrates the theme of the pressure that accompanies motherhood is found in Plath’s “Barren Woman.” As indicated by the title, this poem tells the story of a woman who can’t conceive. The narrator paints a picture of feeling, “empty” (line 1), and further makes an allusion to a life without grandeur like, “a museum without statues” (line 1). Just as an empty museum has no function, a barren woman cannot fulfill what is often perceived as the greatest purpose in life…
Grass is incapable of speech. Or any intelligent thoughts for that matter. But if grass was sentient, what would it think of human race. Would it be impressed by our progress, or disappointed at all the obstacles we have yet to overcome? Carl Sandberg seems to believe the latter, as he writes of an impassive being posing as grass. He captures the unbiased perspective of nature and illustrates how pointless human warfare is to a being above such trivial matters. Sandburg, in his poem Grass,…
every time you get a notification, you get a little dopamine release. Dopamine, although thought to control the “pleasure” systems of the brain, actually causes you to want, seek out, and each. Dopamine’s increasing in arousal and motivation to search for information is vital from an evolutionary standpoint to move through the world and survive.

example, “One as beautiful as you are sweet / with just a hint of pain” (lines 2-3), is a paradox. Both lines contradict each other by the artist is saying that the person is wonderful and has had a good life but they have also been through tough times and knows what it is like to feel some sort of pain. In line 9, the artist uses symbolism when they say, “you 'll have a hiding place you can go,” the hiding place being them. They 're always going to be there when you need some type of comfort or…
Time is both a systematic and abstract concept, in the literal sense it is the measurement of chronological progression using an accepted numerical system of units, however, time can also be a conceptual and subjective concept as it often depends on the relative perception of those observing it (Layzer, 1975: 56). Time can, therefore, be viewed as both and empirical scale as well as a dynamic interpretation or understanding of…
again, and tells him about time travel. Soon, Donnie sees liquid tubes emanating from his family's chests which control their actions. He seeks the help of his physics teacher, Dr. Kenneth Monnitoff, who tells him about the book, Philosophy of Time Travel. The conversation between Donnie and Dr. Monnitoff confirms this: “Each vessel travels along a vector of space time along its centre of gravity”, he starts, to which Donnie replies back, “If God controls time, then all time is pre-decided,…
you grow out of after childhood, are they for motivational use, to help us hold on to our sanity when we face each new day, or are they something more? It takes courage to leave behind whatever will slow you down and seek personal happiness. At times we stop listening to that quiet, benevolent voice inside all of us, and sometimes people neglect it altogether when they most need guidance and direction. Siddhartha stirred up my emotions, reinforced a philosophy that I live by, and made me want…

viable is time travel? Time; it organizes our lives and universe into an ordered series of moments. At first thought, time is one of the most fundamental aspects of our lives and the world we know.

A frame of reference is where an observer is situated. In order to develop a universal concept of time,…
