Most kids would be anything to be an only child‚ and until you have a sibling you will never know how much you need them in your life. I have two younger brothers who are twins‚ Noah and Jonah. They were both a month premature and were in the NICU for almost 2 months. Noah had no complications other than being premature‚ Jonah on the other hand had several. My mother was in labor with Jonah for three hours. He had no oxygen this whole time and came out a blue baby. They revived him and later found

In Rebecca Kanner’s Sinners and the Sea and Yasmina Reza’s The God of Carnage the human capacity to commit violence is emphasized. Kanner portrays violence during the time of Noah time before and during the flood. The sinners of the town of Sorum‚ as well as some members of Noah’s family‚ commit acts of violence toward one another. Reza portrays violence with the same intensity as Kanner‚ but with a limited cast of characters. The difference between the two portrayals of violence is that Kanner

While reading The Poisonwood Bible‚ I was fascinated by Kingsolver’s extensive use of Lingala‚ the language used in the region of the Congo where the Price family lives.

Religion‚ to some is a hobby‚ to others‚ a safe haven‚ to others their livelihood. Religion is a powerful tool capable of bending people to its will‚ whether this is used for good or bad depends on the user.
