    This week in English we learned about the book A Raisin in the Sun. We learned about different characters in the book and their character traits‚ physical traits‚ personal traits‚ and actions. We talked about the relationship between Walter and Ruth. We talked about how Ruth is always being so negative and destroying Walter’s dream of having a liquor store. The most important thing I learned in English was the characteristics of each character in the book. The assignment that I spent the most time

    I signed up to fight in the war because everybody else was‚ because it was an expectation of us men to defend our mother country and do what was considered right‚ justified and brave. Honestly‚ I didn’t know what to expect of our coming battles‚ but I certainly wasn’t afraid‚ too naïve to understand the risks I was facing. War is not all it is said to be. We soldiers were told it was to fight for our honour‚ nobility and home‚ but none of that mattered in the midst of battle. War is about bloodshed

    HUM1020 What I Have Learned In Modules 1 & 2 In module 1‚ I found it to be a scary week for me. Not really understanding art‚ it can make it a tad nerve wrecking for me especially since I know it’s not my forte. To some people they can look at art and understand somewhat of the meaning behind the artist’s work of art. I cannot see this in all images I see. Art to me sometimes will catch my eye and pull me in and then my imagination opens up and I see crazy visuals of the work. This is something

    freedom confused. In Roosevelt’s speech he says “an equally basic essential to peace is a decent standard of living for all individual men and women and children in all nations” (Roosevelt). Absolute freedom would be completely savage as stated in “Learned Hand’s I Am an American Day Address”. Freedom is ruthless and it is not one anyone would actually want. You might want to argue that freedom is what everyone wants. But‚ in our society if we had no rules or standards to live by we would be completely

    in India. I have learned a lot about Hinduism by reading the story “The Bhagavad Gita” translation by Shri Purohit Swami. A poem called “the Woodcarver” that I also read had to do with Hinduism also. I learned four things from reading “The Woodcarver” and “The Bhagavad Gita.” The three things I have learned were that people have to let go of things that are in the way of them learning new things‚ another thing I learned was that you can do anything if you aren’t ignorant‚ I learned was to achieve things

    As I thought back on how I learned to be a hard worker growing up‚ I would have to say I learned it from my mom. I grew up an only child with a single mother; it was only the two of us. She worked two jobs. One was on the night shift as a nurse‚ and the other was cleaning houses during the day. Therefore‚ I had to do my part around the house. She would show me first and then let me do it. I remember one time when I was little she taught me how to make the bed. She showed me how to pull the entire

    What Have Others Learned from You? Our Scripture Reading from Deuteronomy makes a connection between obeying God Word‚ and obtaining material blessings; but‚ more importantly‚ it reminds us that God’s Word is close to us (Deuteronomy 30:9-14). God’s Word is not something so far removed that we never get a glimpse of it. It is not beyond our reasoning and capabilities. By the way‚ I am not suggesting that we grasp God’s Word in its totality‚ but enough of God’s Word to lead us to do good. Being

    Wisdom I have learned from an older adult First of all I have to say that I’ve put quiet a bit of thought into who I’ve received the most words of wisdom from and I have chosen my adopted mother. Over the past thirty six years that I have been a part of my adopted family I have truly had some difficulties coping and dealing with the fact my biological mother abandoned myself and my four brothers when I was a baby. For many years I have questioned so many things‚ the reasons‚ the whys‚ the what
