Personally I do not believe in love at first sight only because it is a proven fact when you first see someone if you guys stare at one another for more than 7 seconds it is lust or a desire to kill. I think this love at first sight thing is really naive. Love is such a broad term and is used incorrectly in many contexts. It could mean love of anything‚ love for anything‚ and love in anything. I think in general‚ love at first sight is hard to come by because people look straight to the positives

In Judith Ortiz Cofer’s “First Love”‚ the speaker is opportunistic and infatuated. The narrator is opportunistic because she did not let a sense of morality stop her from taking advantage of whatever opportunity she had to get what she wants.

The narrator did

Do people accomplish more when they are allowed to do things their own way? Being able to do things your own way is more accomplishing than any other way. Every person is unique in the way he or she learns and does things. There are examples I have taken from the invention of the rocket and its impact on science‚ the accomplishments of the Beatles‚ and the formation of the United States. By doing it their way‚ these people have had a significant influence on our world today. During the 1900s
