I am the product of a Catholic education. Having attended Catholic schools since the age of three‚ I have learned education is an opportunity to not only advance intellectually‚ but also to develop morally. As such‚ my life is guided by the values and beliefs that have been instilled in me throughout the years. One of the core values I hold in high esteem is service. I understand I have an obligation to use my gifts and talents to benefit others. As I prepare to graduate high school and start the

The American Dream Through the eyes of Mrs. Mallard “It was only yesterday that I thought‚ with a shudder of grief‚ that life might be long” (Chopin‚ 54). I knew that there was nothing more that my white‚ slender hands could accomplish in this lifetime; my will to clean‚ to sew… had vanished. As did my love for my husband. But did I ever really feel love towards him? Did I ever have one domestic impulse in my bones? It is that notion of the ideal American marriage which paralyzes me. It veils my

My self perceived strength were analytical‚ deliberative‚ discipline‚ focus‚ and intellection. I believe these strengths best suited me when I picked them out. But what I actually received was analytical‚ consistency‚ deliberative‚ futuristic‚ and individualization. The strength I identify with the most is deliberative‚ because I am a very indecisive person. I believe this only proves that I am deliberative even more so because I take my decisions seriously and I like to make sure I am picking the

Some people will say that there is nothing good on TV now days‚ well I for one would have to disagree with them. In today’s world there are just so many shows on that it is hard to say that. At my house we watch a lot of kid programs because we have a 17 month old and a newborn. The kid’s shows we watch have a lot of good qualities that they need to learn at an early age to help further them along with their learning and life’s choices. We like to watch Dora the Explorer or Jake and the Never land

For my self-change project‚ I knew there was a major aspect of my life that needed improvement; my health and fitness management. Choosing to change this part of my life wasn’t difficult to come up with because it’s the one thing that has impacted me the most. I am one of the laziest people in the world and I’ve acknowledged this for a long time.

Based on what I have read in “Self-Reliance”‚ I believe that Emerson would not approve of me being in this class because Emerson pushed hard for individualism‚ rather than accepting other people’s ideas and what they are teaching. Emerson writes‚ “To believe in you own thought‚ to believe that what is true for you in your private heart‚ is true for all men‚-- that is genius.”(269). Even though this quote is in the first paragraph on Emerson’s essay‚ it speaks volumes . Emerson is saying that if a

I affirm the people at work through different ways. I accept others and listen to them. I have a positive attitude and demonstrate it by encouraging the people with positive comments on their achievements. For example‚ being the committee chairperson of patient documentation‚ I sent ’kudos’ to those staff who does the documentation as per the hospital policy. I treat my teammates with dignity and respect (Warren‚ 2013). I empathize with my coworkers who face issues and suggest them simple and practical

There were many things that I completely changed my views and beliefs on. While reading the different chapters I saw a lot of differences in my way of thinking and the correct
