cultures melted in this "big melting pot‚" and created this unique culture. However‚ these foreign cultures‚ the people in fact‚ need time to melt and dissolve. Ironically‚ there are people who do not even melt at all. People who live in China Town‚ for example‚ never have to speak a single English word‚ and they live just fine.

Even though the twentieth century saw two world wars‚ the threat of war is something which hangs over us all the time‚ and is particularly acute in times of international crisis‚ It is my belief that war is not the answer and should only be declared as a last resort. Avoidance is the key word. It is a sad fact that war is being waged somewhere in the world every day of the year. Obviously‚ without

Those three little words that keep Ashley Rhodes-Courter connected to her painful past are hard to let go. While reading this novel‚ overtime‚ it becomes clear to me that the three little words are simply‚ “I guess so”. However‚ I believe the most powerful statement that overtime changes Ashley’s life is‚ “I love you”.
