Emily Dickinson Because I Could Not Stop For Death. In this poem Dicksons ‘speaker’ is communicating from beyond the grave describing her journey with Death‚ personified‚ from life to afterlife.

gold-hatted‚ high-bouncing lover‚ I must have you!’ —THOMAS PARKE D’INVILLIERS T G G C I n my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since. ‘Whenever you feel like criticizing any one‚’ he told me‚ ‘just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.’ He didn’t say any more but we’ve always been unusually communicative in a reserved way‚ and I understood that he meant a

Director Gil Junger‚ transformed

6 Things About Hockey It is not a gentle sport. “You can’t go in this sport with a ballerina attitude. Hockey is a sport that requires toughness and focus. If you go in a hockey game with no focus‚ you are going to get thrown around the rink like a bouncy ball riding in a car. Hockey needs lots of focus‚ strength‚ and power.” It’s not as easy as it looks. “Watching a hockey game‚ you see people gliding around on ice skates with sticks trying to make a goal.
