from them. Two works of literature that display how innocence is a natural form of protection by showing innocence in hindsight are “American History” by Judith Ortiz Cofer and “Society’s Child” by Janis Ian. In “American History”, the narrator experiences prejudice and loses her natural innocence, showing how it defended her all along. In “Society’s Child”, the speaker is unbothered by the opinions of others until they realize that they cannot change those options. Through epiphany and…

I hold stories and experience in high regard. So to elaborate on what I think wisdom is, I think back to my most recent job. I worked with three other fellows for the S.S. Badger as auto-attendants. My co-workers will be known as Mr. H, Mr. D, and Mr. Y. All three of us are the same age, but that is where much of the similarities end. Mr. Y was a super intelligent person. He was class valedictorian, scored a 33 on his ACT, and was going to attend an honors college for physics. Mr. D was…

Everyone handles adversity differently. Some people are like the carrot and become weaker as difficulties get worse. Others are like the egg, who become hard and cold on the inside as challenges appear and increase. Most people are one way or the other, but a few are able to handle adversity like the coffee bean. They are able to take the difficulties they are challenged with and change them into something positive. Personally, I always try to handle adversity like the coffee bean. I believe…

In the same first experience, she would see this as one of the greatest opportunities to have. She believed that you could be anything you wanted to be in America. Unlike Jing-Mei, her mother felt like this was the prodigy that Jing-Mei should live up to. She would have done anything to make sure Jing-Mei would become a piano genius. In the second experience, she expected her daughter to play astonishing, which was quite the opposite of what it really was. It was obvious that Jing-Mei’s mother…

to a place completely unique to that of my own inner world. A place where the ideologies shared are rather unlike to that of what I’m accustomed to. But despite one’s drive or lack thereof to physically explore the world, cultures and personal experiences can and will always be held…

is in the form of a physical blindness–the inability to use his eyes to see the world around him. This, however, does not inhibit him from experiencing the world around him, unlike the Narrator. The Narrator’s blindness comes from inability to experience the world around him, a curtain he pulls down to shield himself from anything he doesn’t deem “important” enough for him to try and understand. This draws a contrast between the two character’s…

place. He explains how it was an old melodrama that he had seen awhile ago with childish awe. E.B. White provides descriptive details on what is going on with the lake, the electrical disturbance and a curious darkening of the sky was a familiar experience that E.B. White experienced when he was a child. “Then the kettle drum, then the snare, then the bass drum and cymbals, then crackling light against the dark, and the gods grinning and licking their chops in the hills.” Is a metaphor that…

shopping experiences. Most of these memories from these experiences fade over time. However, some of these experiences are so phenomenal or extraordinary they have a lasting impression on us. On the other hand some of them are so unpleasant or foul that they leave us with a bad image of a once favorite store. I can recall one shopping experience that was horrendous. It happened while I was shopping for a crib at Kmart. In the paragraphs to come I will explain what caused this shopping experience…
