    What is a villain? By definition it is “the person or thing responsible for specified trouble‚ harm‚ or damage” or an antagonist who seems fit to be a terrible‚ evil‚ unjust person but to me villains are not that.

These people are all labeled as villains because they do something out of the norm to make themselves happy or perhaps others when what they do

    physical ailments. Others simply take things as they come in life‚ whether they are good or bad things. In the dictionary‚ fear is defined as: "a feeling of agitation or anxiety caused by the presence or imminence of danger.  That is a rather ominous definition.

    American Dream The American Dream to me seems like it’s overused. To me the American Dream is just a made up term for a “normal dream” because all it is is wanting success. The American Dream is just wanting to have a job‚ have an education‚ and have a family. The American dream is mainly about being a success.
