After reading "The World Is Too Much With Us” by William Wordsworth there are a multitude of themes that strike me as relevant to our current society.

Our society is so immersed in the materialistic world that we forget to

What a question to ponder! I have tried writing this essay many times and have realized that this is a very difficult topic. "Is it possible to love someone too much?" If you look at the question you first must define what love is and what it means to you before you can determine if it is actually possible to love someone too much. <br> <br>The Webster Dictionary defines love as "profoundly tender‚ a passionate affection for another person".

In my opinion‚ our society needs to emphasize culture to a further extent since there can never be too much emphasis on it. The blatant reason why we should accentuate the diversity in society is because it truly represents the essence of the people. It exemplifies all of who we are - our physical‚ abstract‚ social‚ political‚ and religious being. It reflects our achievements‚ short-comings

Therefore‚ in order to stop it and try to reduce it significantly‚ stigmatizing overeating might be helpful but it is only a simple solution for a much more complex problem.
