correct hour, but at the exact minute each and every morning. Visualize commuting through a city: on the same time and train as every other day, while tuned in to dialogue on 'suicide camps' through the radio broadcast. Picture taking up residence in a world, where, one miniscule spurt of laughter will earn an employee the equivalent of demerit points, while on the job. This proves to be very existence, which, Caitlin R. Hiernan, in The Pearl Diver perpetually pits her protagonist against. As a…

As a child, your days are long and your adventures seem nearly endless, and yet, as you age your days instead become long, grueling sessions while life becomes a dreary pattern. However, this does not necessarily have to be, if you simply see through the child in your mind’s eye, life can still be just as exciting as it once was. When I was young, my mother sent me off to lessons each day at a small school nearby; there I was smothered into stillness and sentenced to silence. It seemed as if…

moment like it’s their last. The thought that today could be ones last day will not cross their mind, yet it should. Marcus Aurelius discusses religion in this section of chapter two.

When one thinks of a hero, he or she would likely think of a character able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, or a person with laser beam eyes.This concept of a hero is severely outdated. Heroism isn’t an elusive quality only found in our favorite comic book heros. Everyone performs heroic acts daily, whether it be on a large scale such as saving a life, or a bit smaller such as simply being a good role model to a child. Although the true definition of a hero is somewhat debated, the…

We are all born on boats, coming from a source of which we know naught, and heading into an oblivion of which we can only imagine. Most of us are delivered onto vessels to live with our families, only leaving once adolescence entreats an independence that necessitates our sailing solo. Others live forever on the same craft, never venturing past that which man has made to separate us from the swirling, unknown waters below. Still others must learn to be autonomous almost at once, for they are set…

community services has become a big part of the world we know today. The service can be as small as picking up garbage along the side of the road, or as big as traveling to different countries to help with natural disasters.

I got the opportunity to interview someone who has changed the world for people who thought there was nothing good that could come from the world when everything they knew was taken from…

In the film The Giver there seemed to be a low value placed on human life because of sameness. Everyone was doing the same thing everyday. They were never allowed to express…

Today we live in the world full of ''covers'' or ''obstacles'' just to not see what is actually going on. We live the same day as last day, we are doing the same thing as yesterday. Before days were timeless, today days are scheduled. People lived freely like animals in the wild. But what's stopping us from doing what we want or what's stopping us from being free – its the elite hiding behind corporations and logos, individuals hiding behind governmental name or so. Individuals that change…
