The role of Rites of Passage in Modern Day Life By Teeya Blatt Before reflecting on the role of rites of passage in our modern day lives‚ lets first remember what they did for our ancestors‚ when we lived closer to the Earth and to the natural cycles. There were the rites that marked the cycles‚ the winter solstice‚ the summer solstice in northern Europe‚ the rites that marked the time of fruiting trees‚ the run of salmon upriver.

mythology such as Hercules and Perseus. However‚ modern day heroes are still human beings. They tend not to be fictional and instead‚ are derived from the world of popular culture‚ such as sports and entertainment. I feel that the attention and money devoted to the sponsorship of these sportsmen and celebrities suggest that they are very influential figures in today’s society. This means that they are usually idolized by others and play a powerful role in shaping morals and values of society. However

The Modern Day Feminist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie‚ a powerful leader in the modern day feminist movement‚ once said in a speech presented at TEDxEuston‚ We Should All Be Feminists‚ “Some people ask: ‘Why the word feminist? Why not just say you are a believer in human rights‚ or something like that?’ Because that would be dishonest.

Most everyone has a role model in their life. They could be a parent‚ a friend‚ a teacher‚ or a sports hero. They could be the D.A.R.E officer who works in your school. He could be someone you read about in a book. A role model is hard to define‚ because it can be different for everyone.

Often‚ it is someone you would like to be like when you get older‚ or someone who does something you find hard to do. They

Modern day music In todays society it really doesn’t take a lot of effort to become a “talented” or “well known” musician as you can probably tell by some popular artists such as Tyga‚ Jay-Z or Miley Cyrus. In my opinion‚ those three are terrible. In America today in order to become famous “musician” all you need to do is write down a vague rhyme that makes zero sense‚ get an average singer to sing it‚ auto-tune it and wear the correct clothes. Once that one song has been put out‚ mindless

Many of us have role models in our lives and to most people role models are athletes and movie stars‚ but to me a role model is much more. To me a role model is a person who has positively influenced someone in life‚ and is not a person filled with selfishness and greed. They help shape someone’s personality‚ and characteristics. They are people who someone can look up to for advice in a hard situation‚ and know that they will give those words of wisdom. They will never judge our past actions‚ instead
