I agree with William‚ Handy about Santiago‚ in the novel The Old Man and the Sea‚ achieving his true existence or at least him knowing all his values. Santiago reaches this level of existence by being a kind person and always hopeful. Also he achieves this with his strength‚ courage‚ and determination.

The director‚ Hirokazu Kore-eda‚ proves that people can find shelter and transform a space into a place regardless of Bachelard’s conventional definition of a home. The movie takes place predominantly within the house‚ especially in the kitchen. From the beginning‚ two women prepare food to honor the oldest son‚ Junpei’s death

Another example losing my brother was probably the worst way to learn to cherish

What is the American Dream? I’ve heard it as the “land of opportunity” but I am unsure of what America is really called today. The American dream is to have the freedom‚ the opportunities to be independent and financial success. In today’s society due to the reduction of opportunities given to Americans it is difficult to move up the economic ladder to attain a person’s dream. Of course‚ many will probably disagree with this assertion that the American dream is unattainable. On the other hand
