Elie Wiesel once wrote‚ “For the dead and the living‚ we must bear witness”. This quote rings true in our world full of atrocities‚ past and present. Elie Wiesel’s true narrative‚ Night‚ is an acclaimed description of his trials through the cruelties of the Holocaust. Within the story‚ Wiesel accounted many abominations that happened daily to thousands of Jews at the hands of the Nazis. I couldn’t help but contemplate a few themes that played out‚ as I read the book‚ and have a few of my own epiphanies

Five years ago‚ I recently moved to Colorado from Mexico. I got enrolled in school that same year which I was getting into eight grade.

When I first started school‚ I didn’t know how to write‚ read nor speak English very well. At that point all I probably knew was

In Romans 1: 18- 32‚ it is telling us that what we are worshipping is wrong. It is telling us that God‚ our creator‚ who gave us everything is the one who should be worshipped and adored‚ but that because we ignored him and disobeyed him he gave us up to shameless lusts‚ to a depraved man‚ to do what ought not to be done.

January 14‚ was the happiest day of my life. Happiest‚ because it is the day where I found my peace of mind‚ my happiness‚ my one and only and my other half.

My position stands for the Teleological ethics because I identify myself with the idea of judging acts by its consequences instead of by the means. I’m not saying that the end justifies the means‚ but I think that when it comes to make a decision you have to analyze the effects that this decision can have over yourself and the rest of the

shadows of ideas projected on the wall = opinions‚ illusions. -The wall = the material world seen by us. -Ideas are the basis of reality and not the material world. The most important thing you can do is: ’ Know thyself’‚ practice self-reflection‚ learn more about yourself than what you believe you are. Here I will go further: The material world is largely an illusion‚ it is always changing. By just looking at it‚ one cannot learn anything. There is also another world: an eternal world

Theories about Interpersonal Dynamics A good theory is simple and testable‚ and it is not isolated from our daily life.
