Perspective on Life
Whenever we look up at the night sky we often wonder how much is real and how much is fake; we often realize how big, and spectacular the universe is, and how small we are compared to it. Do you ever wonder why we are who we are, or why we do what we do? I wonder why. I wonder why we make mistakes, and why we regret almost everything we do. Then one day I realized why we are who we are, and why we do what we do, and why we make mistakes. It simply because we are humans, and that what we do best. We were brought to life to do very simple things: live, reproduce, and die. Then we evolved, and became complex and started to learn, and develop a general sense of well being. We learned we could make fire, and we learned we could be civilized. And as time goes by, we became stronger, wiser, and smarter. We soon developed a sense of government, and a so called law system, like if you aren’t a king, you don’t own anything, but then that soon changed when a more modern society came about. And now look at humans, we have many different languages, we have religions, we have currency, and we have some type of belonging. Now we don’t have to come up with lies for how we got here, or lie about what’s real and what’s fake. We have science to prove how we got here, and science can tell us what’s real and what’s fake. So now if you look up at the night sky, we see beauty, and peace, and no matter in the world you are, you see this, and no matter how hard life is you always have something positive to look at. So if your still wondering what’s real, or what’s fake, look up and realize nothing that was here before we were is fake, and nothing that will be here a long time after us is fake. Life is real, and its just one thing that we have to enjoy, because not everyone gets a chance to live. Take your life for what it is, and just enjoy your life while you have it, and never let go of what you

    Life is an ongoing cycle, forever trapped within the consumerism, legalism, and ruthlessness of modern society.

    We as humans are extraordinary beings; we’ve created diseases, and cured them; we’ve built nuclear bombs, created civilizations, made hybrid species, and have managed to come up with laws that were to be followed by people while a higher authority were chosen to enforce them. Yet we can’t seem to figure out the truth behind reality, and how to distinguish what’s real and what’s fake. Are the things we imagine just mere figments of our imaginations, or are they things we’ve seen or experienced before? Is your mind the ultimate guide to happiness and truth, or is experiencing things for yourself the only way to find the true meaning of life? Or is living in a cave confined of your own ignorance your ideal way to live a happy life?…

    For me the greatest knowledge and skills gain was in learning about and conducting the Life Review. I was able to take acquired knowledge in the area of physcosocial development and apply the knowledge. By reading Harder, A (2012) senthesiszed review of Erikson’s developmental stages, I was able to apply the stages of development to my subject in the life review. Addionally, by using Butler’s description of a Life Review is was able to gain greater insight into the differenct between simple reminishing and a true Life Rivew. Butler (2002) indicates they differences between simple reminiscing and a Life Review is that in the Life Reivew a person who comes to the end of their live and they try to make sense of their life and they try to resolve…

    Growing up we are all told the direction of our paths- go to school, graduate, get a job, get married, have kids/grandkids, and finally, retire. It’s the inescapable reality that is forced upon us throughout our whole existence. As society we are forced into conventionalism, pushed towards a dream that we do not even necessarily desire, but since it is the ‘norm’ we conform to it out of lack of knowledge of the world. Just the thought of how many other millions of people there are in the world, and how miniscule we are in the grandee scheme of the world is quite over whelming. As Shakespeare said it: think of your life as if we are all actors in a play and we all have that one small role with one line to say. The majority of us would try to execute that line in the most powerful and prominent voice we could ever possibly muster, in hopes that the audience might notice us. Hoping, praying that we had made the play better with just that one line. With our lives we want to try and make a difference, to be noticed, but that rarely happens. Why? Because we are forced into being Orthodox, forced into being people that are way less then what we are capable of. We may have the most outstanding and brilliant ideas ever to be thought of but they will never be heard because we are taught that the average don’t make it ‘big’. How many of you personally know someone from your younger years that actually became famous for something positive, like stopping global warming? I’m going to go with next to none of you do. We are taught at a certain age that we should just give up on our dreams and ambitions and go after something more realistic- like an office job. Conformity not only leads us away from our full living potential that God but us on this earth for but also has numerous other constraints. These go all the way from letting the higher up in society win by being able to control us with a simple idea, to actually being sunned…

    The three themes of the life course perspective include, relationships, events, and experiences of early life have consequences. To start with the description of these themes we see experiences and that our physical and mental health is closely related to the advantages and disadvantages we had in early childhood. People who begin life with a social advantage generally are better positioned to succeed later in life, and people with adversities early in life are often blocked from opportunities that allow them to have a happy and healthy life leading into their old age. Also researchers have found that childhood experiences such as parental death, parental divorce, child abuse victimization, poverty, and living in an unsafe neighborhood, have…

    Life course perspective is an approach that tries to understand how chronological age, relationships, life transitions, historical time and place, and social change shape lives of people from fetal period to death (Elder et al., 2003). Various life course trajectories increases exposure to advantage and disadvantage throughout our life leading to accumulation of risks and opportunities which impact subsequent life trajectories and health of the person themselves and other people close to them. Therefore, cumulative advantage and disadvantage and linked lives can be two of the important factors that can contribute to the course origins of health (Elder et al., 2003 and Ferraro & Shippee, 2009).…
