The essay “Mimis in the Middle” describes the life of American Mexicans in their most vulnerable period of life. The fact that the Mimis are teenagers raised in a Mexican family is difficult and can be truly painful for the majority of teenagers, but the Mimis found a way to escape from that gloom reality and become the popular blondes whom everyone like. The virtual reality that the Mimis have created helped the whole family to feel better about them and gave hope for everyone that maybe they can feel as true Americans.

For a poor working class Mexican family the ...

I know you have bug dreams for yourselves and that you look forward to a successful life in the future.

I did not easily know these things myself, but with the help of the book Myths America Lives By written by Richard Hughes I now know better. Hughes talks about the common beliefs held by the American people but I doubt they are even ...

Leadership in nursing is usually defined differently by various people. Personally, I believe that leadership entails influencing and engaging people in a shared vision. It is oriented towards the achievement of goals and has close relations to team process and groups dynamics. Leadership as a key skill is required in almost all levels of nursing (Sofarelli & Brown, 1998). The skill enables nurses as well as the nursing staff to lead via example, develop themselves and generally influence care that is not only an open but that is also responsive to the individual needs of patients (Sellgren et al., 2006). A nurse ...

Introduction

Throughout my education, I have noticed that writing has become my passion. Books developed my desire for analysis, discussion and collision of arguments. However, the difficulty to shape my thoughts and reflections lead me to enroll in a rhetoric course. This course offers learning of the skills to analyze and find the gist of the read material. Apart for that, the rhetoric course increases the level of vocabulary, structured writing, and usage of proper citation.

One of the most difficult things is defining and structuring the paper. There are so many ideas, and I find it difficult to separate them ...

Several years ago while on my fifth grade tour of the local food processing facility, I had an opportunity to interact with one of the administrators of the facility. He seemed to have an aura on significance about himself. While he seemed not to get himself involved in the main activity of working on specific stations along the conveyor belt, he virtually knew the entire operation. As we were guided through the diverse sections of the facility, he still kept up with all the plethora information from these sections. He explained to us the entire process of getting French ...

Where were you when the world stopped turning on that September day?Were you in the yard with your wife and children?Or working on some stage in L.A.?Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smokeRisin' against that blue sky?Did you shout out in anger, in fear for your neighbor?Or did you just sit down and cry?Did you weep for the children who lost their dear loved ones?And pray for the ones who don't know?Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble?And sob for the ones left below?Did you burst out with pride ...

Introduction

When children are at the terminal phase of illness, their siblings are very concerned about them, their health, and progress. Subsequently, this finding reveals that there is need for health care professionals to interact, console, and give these children hope. I chose this topic because it is very much connected to children and their psychological connection to their siblings. A sibling who is psychologically prepared for any stage in the illness of their sibling is able to cope better compared to the one who is not psychologically prepared. Therefore, there is a distinct perception of children in the hospital setting ...

It has some signs of hope as well as some challenges. The main topic of the first eight chapters of the text is on understanding the Christian faith and giving practical implications for Christians in this particular community. In this essay I will present Paul’s message to Romans and its possible meaning including my interpretation on it.
Basically, Paul presents two main ...

Letters, in the past, do more than just share a message. These written words often carry the being along with the message; as if presenting one’s self to the one for whom the message is intended to be given.

For people who have a defined place in the society, good or bad - people who have jobs of any kind, or live with their families, or part of a cause - which is most probably most people, it would be hard to imagine what it is like to be displaced from a society and be flung into a place that does not know or need you. In a "normal" situation, we take for granted the relationships we have, even the slightest connections to old schoolmates or neighbors or even childhood acquaintances. We do not realize how much these relationships contribute to our sense ...

The Puritans, who are known to extreme separatists, made a great shift in the Christianity’s history. Being not fully satisfied with the results of the reformation in the Church of England, this group of devout Christian men and women endeavored to completely do away with the heresies of Roman Catholicism. These Puritans are also deemed great writers of various forms of literature, whereby their culture and belief are also presented. In her work, Verses upon the Burning of our House, Puritan Anne Bradstreet contemplates on the sovereignty of God in all things, the view on and response of man ...

William Faulkner once said that “the human heart in conflict with itself” is the only subject that is truly worth writing about. There are many authors who have applied this advice to their characters throughout literature. From the complicated Nineteen Eighty-Four’s Winston Smith to the simplistic Sam I Am’s Sam, there are too many characters to name who spend the pages of their novel feeling in conflict with their own hearts. Two more examples of such characters are Bernard Marx, from Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and Louise from Kate Chopin’s The Story of an ...

On one hand, human life seems pegged on the hope that tomorrow is going to be better than today, and every bad experience will be erased by good experiences in the near future. On the other hand, life can be complex and without meaning, leading to a sense of hopelessness. As a result, life is a battle between hope and hopelessness. Nothing brings out this reality better than Waiting for Godot. In the play, Waiting for Godot, there is a thin line between hope and hopelessness, and the characters appear diametrically opposed to each other.
At the beginning of the play, scene ...

The story of Louse Mallard, who dies of a heart condition from the surprise showing up of her presumed dead husband suggests a succesful conspiracy to cover up major issues in their marriage. The fact that Louise died concealing the abusive nature of her husband reveals the dreadful reality of women surviving in abusive relationships and opt to conceal the truth. This paper seeks to analyze Allen Stein's Women and Autonomy in Kate Chopin's short Fiction and Joseph Rossenblum's The story of an hour.

I believe in butterflies. They always give people the hope for transformation. Butterflies are living examples that moving from one step to another is possible. Before a butterfly blooms to a beautiful and colourful creature, it was once a caterpillar. It moved from a not so pleasant creature to a wonderful and hopeful butterfly. Its powerful transformation gives women hope that gender justice will come soon.

There are more than 6 billion people on the planet, and all of them possess unique merits, virtues and talents. However, no matter how many people I meet, for me the most admirable person always remains my mother. She is the smartest, the most eloquent, and the most helpful person that I have ever seen. In my opinion her beauty is nearly divine. Her brown eyes radiate a special light that illuminates my day and reflect the confidence that is inherent in her character. Her smile masks all the sorrows she might be going through, and nobody can tell when ...

The critical lens aspect in the most basic sense gives the human beings and society an avenue to view and gauge the behavior of others using the set philosophical aspects.

For the purpose of this essay, I will use the existential philosophy and critique to give insights on the subject. Given the existential aspects and philosophical ...

Every person has its own concept of a good life. It is individual for everybody. In America, there is a notion ‘the American dream’. According to Mark Robert Rank, “it is a road map for the way we often envision the course of our lives” (Rank 1). According to this idea, every American has opportunities to achieve success. The essence of the American dream is that each person has the ability and energy to succeed in life in an honest way. In my opinion, the desire to succeed is one of the main drivers of the good life.

The novel opens with a story from Dick-and-Jane primer that presents a contrast between the said narrative and the circumstances of the characters in the novel’s story. This stark contrast between the two sets of characters at first appears to tell the reader that the middle-class family of Dick and Jane, who are presumably whites, are in a far better condition than the main characters of the story.
The tone of the novel is one that portrays an emotion of pessimism and loss of hope, through a situational irony. Situational irony “refers to the chasm between what we hope for or ...

The first one is rule #1 where he talks about how writing should be like “show and tell.” The reason I think this rule would be helpful to remember is that I think ...

Spirituality has been embraced in disciplines such as sociology, philosophy, literature and health care. However, nursing profession has historically neglected the dimension of spirituality regardless of its significance in the healing process. Currently, medical institutions offer courses in spirituality. In addition, many medical centers have incorporated holistic health care and spirituality into their programs. In essence, trends towards embracing spirituality in nursing care include situations where patients demand that their spiritual requirements be addressed. Interestingly, patients desire that their mental, emotional or physical should be accompanied with spiritual concerns.
Spiritual care identifies and considers the needs of people ...

Introduction:

Dante’s Divine Comedy is probably one of the greatest literary works ever written. Combining an incredible imagination with an exact and descriptive state of affairs with regards to historical and social commentary, the work has inspired many to create their own vision of Hell and to throw the relative people into it. A 21st century Inferno is a topical discussion and lends itself to considerable imagination since there is no shortage of evil around us with pride and avaraice being among the main sins practised with impunity.

The beginnings of Dante’s Inferno

Dante’s Inferno begins on Maundy Thursday in 1300 with the narrator ...

Salvation is one of the key elements in religious teachings. Perhaps, it is considered the ultimate objective of believers, despite the type and nature of their religion. Generally, salvation is described as being protected or caved from harm. It also means being delivered from terrible circumstances. However, in the religious context, salvation is described as the saving of the soul from sins as well as its repercussions. In religious studies, studying salvation is described as soteriology. Particularly, that study is associated with relative study of how various religious practices regard salvation as well as how they consider it is ...

However, the setting of the novel had an aim of generating a feeling of the superiority of the human race. The author displays with a lot of regard the human race and their abilities to withstand any significant society change if they stick together.

Martin Luther King Jr. is certainly an obvious choice if you want to write about and analyze the speech of a good speaker. I have always found great diction in King’s speeches and the way he expresses warrant is commendable. “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” is one such speech by King, in which he presented a dream and long-term mission for the city of Memphis, Tennessee. Back then, Martin’s was fighting for racial equality, especially for African-Americans. I believe his statement “I'm delighted to see each of you here tonight” is the pathos of his speech, which he ...

“The Hollow Men” by T.S. Eliot
So I read through the poem a few more times, and slowly it started to become more and more apparent what this poem is actually about. I feel that this poem has a very pessimistic tone, as if the concise underlying allusion of the poem is that humanity has no future. However, principles of intellect seem to control the despair, in the way experience is consciously surveyed in the poem in abstract terms and how contrasting states of being have been distinguished. Lines 1 and 2 are probably depicting how corruption can inevitably make ...

There are many differences and similarities to be extracted from the events in “All summer in a day” a short story and “I am a legend” the movie. This paper will evaluate the stylist devices and how the writers use the characters in each plot. It will further analyze the artistic work from each story to determine their effectiveness.

The theme of struggle is evident in both stories. Nevil in ‘I am a legend’ struggles with isolation while staying alone almost all the time. The character also struggles to cope with the loneliness by watching pornography. In the other case, Margot and the ...

Thomas no longer listens to music with passion, as he was used to before the content in the music changed. Initially, music was gentle, beautiful, harmonious, and resolved. Currently, this is not the case because the music is dissonant, complex, unresolved, and is full of tension. Two different tones are eminent, the former kind representing hope and peace, and the latter representing hopelessness and anguish.
The thesis can be expressed without any reference to music since the variation in tone is an exact replication of the problems facing humanity. Thomas’s response and experience to music has changed. ...

Personal statement on faith-based curriculum

Religion and spirituality are often contentious issues because they are held so closely to people’s hearts. I grew up in an extremely open but spiritually-rich environment, and I have seen firsthand the ways that religion and spirituality can be positive experiences in people’s lives. As I have progressed along my academic and personal journey, I have come to acknowledge that both religion and spirituality have an incredibly important place in my life, and I hope to attend an institution that places the same value on religion and spirituality that I do.
Academically, I have found that ...

We all wish to change and save the world, but somewhere along the way most of us long our energy and vigor to actually make a change. None of us are too small to make a difference; at times all we need is a little inspiration to go that extra mile. For many of us, there is always that one person who sets an example and shows us that change is possible. They do not tell us how they want us to change. They do not nag us to do something in a certain way. Instead, they set a stage where we get to ...

According to Susser, the internationally gender conservative moral agenda promotion has in fact emerged partly from PEPFAR actual regulations as outlined earlier. For the poor nations receiving PEPFAR there are various more implications than immediate moral imperatives concerning the sexual abstinence (Susser 1977). With wall destruction between state and church, Susser argues that relaxing rules against the funding of the religious practices and failing a multipronged prevention approach has made new AIDS funding by President Bush to precipitate an increase in the faith based funding abroad. In the African context, the category of people who benefited from this approach advance ...

It is difficult to make someone believe in something unprecedented, but the church was able to do it. It is difficult to keep the influx of non-believers, but the church was always doing so until the freedom of speech and thought, of course.

Religious ideas, rules, basics are described in the sacred books, which allegedly have been dictated by God. Of course, no one can currently prove ...
