Bullets flying through the air right over me‚ my knees are shaking‚ and my feet are numb. I see familiar faces all around me dodging the explosives illuminating the air like lightning. Unfortunately‚ numerous familiar faces seem to disappear into the trenches. I try to run from the noise‚ but my mind keeps causing me to re-illustrate the painful memories left behind. The three narratives "Home Soil" by Irene Zabytko‚ "Song of Napalm" by Bruce Weigl‚ and "Dulce et Decorum Est" by Wilfred Owen all

according to the Aristotelian definition‚ because his demise is entirely of his own doing. In the ongoing debate of fate versus free will‚ Oedipus proves that fate will only take a person so far.

take that for granted. I read The “Spirit of Liberty” speech by Judge Learned Hand and I agree with what they had to say about liberty and freedom. What they thought about freedom and liberty was very close to what I thought of liberty and freedom and how many Americans believe that freedom is what we sought for and in the future we sought for liberty‚ and what the Hand said about liberty just about summed up my thoughts on liberty. They said that liberty was the freedom from oppression‚ freedom
