A mentor is more than someone who gives life lessons. A mentor is someone you can be yourself around‚ someone you’re allowed to open up to‚ a non-judgemental figure. For me‚ this person wasn’t hard to find‚ it was as if she was placed in my life. A middle-aged woman with a short haircut‚ and a heart the size of the world‚ she goes by the name Monique. In 2005‚ she was diagnosed with M.S. (Multiple Sclerosis). Even with her M.S.‚ she was the most uplifting person I have ever known. I like to think

influence on people´s personality features‚ clothing has become what. Over the 50’s and 80’s decades‚ it was suffered as many changes as the history its self has had. The main point on this essay is to compare or contrast the 80’s and 50’s fashion tendencies‚ and representative trends. First of all‚ I found remarkable to notice that during the 50’s‚ clothing could have the opproral of trousers and jeans for ladies and that elegance has been one very important thing since then. About the 80’s decade‚ we notice

In A Grief Observed‚ by C.S. Lewis‚ I was profoundly affected by the spiral of emotion that Lewis was afflicted with after the loss of H. Not only is C.S. Lewis angry at god‚ but over the course of the book he comes to terms with his pain. That god has not forsaken him and is not a cruel being‚ but instead has knocked down his house of cards showing him who he really is. This eye-opening book really observes grief down to its darkest moment. Something that we rarely get the chance to peak into in

“Since it is so likely that (children) will meet cruel enemies‚ let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage. Otherwise you are making their destiny not brighter but darker” (C.S. Lewis). We need heroes to stand out and help when needed or called to action. Heroes should be people that all cultures/people all over the world can look up to and have a good example no matter how bad their life is. A hero puts others before himself‚ loves to give back and not take‚ and one who stands

C.S. Lewis’s The Great Divorce is a work that showcases the many patterns of denial and rejection that people use to avoid giving their lives to God. Lewis attempts to show the difference between heaven and hell. He does not do this in the literal sense of the places where humanity will be going in eternity. Rather‚ he embodies the figurative sense of heaven and hell which people experience on earth. He focuses on the importance of our earthly decisions in the balance of not only how we spend eternity

In “Mere Christianity”‚ C.S Lewis describes how hard it is to be a good Christian in his statement “now we cannot‚ in that sense‚ discover our failure to keep God’s law except by trying our very hardest (and then failing)” (265). In this statement‚ Lewis is arguing that struggling to be good and having faith in religion takes a tremendous amount of willpower. Faith in religion takes conscious effort because it can become difficult to hold onto faith over time. I can relate this to my own personal

A Grief Observed is a reflection of C.S. Lewis on the process of grieving for his wife. In his book‚ he wrestled with death in harshness and honesty‚ and he tried to understand his anger with God and his world without her. My focus in this report is on the issue of latter part of his book about him developing a new relationship with God and his deceased wife‚ and he returned back into proper life. Lewis questioned the care of God in his book. He faced the fact of his lack of faith and he explored

C.S. Lewis’s “The Lion‚ the Witch‚ and the Wardrobe” can be seen as a spiritual allegory. The entire book has either subtle or somewhat blatant references to Christianity‚ and other religions. With references to Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection‚ Adam and Eve; it is pretty clear that Lewis intended his novel to parallel with Christian themes. But also having some elements of Paganism‚ Lewis portrays elements of the natural world and respecting it‚ much like how in the Pagan religion is about

A man will guess where his morals come from. What is right and what is wrong‚ what is good and what is bad. Some may say these are acquired‚ but then why would every civilization to ever come about have similar morales? “For example‚ some people wrote to me saying‚ ‘Isn’t what you call the Moral Law simply our herd instinct and hasn’t it been developed just like all our other instincts?’ (Lewis 19) The book Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis goes into great depth into what morals are. The book covers
