obstacles. A major obstacle in my daily life is my anxiety disorder. Some days are like I don’t even have it other days are like my mind is incessant. But over the years I have figured it out‚ like what causes it‚ and how to cope with it. In the Odyssey‚ Odysseus overcame lots of tasks like I did with my anxiety.

The song that I chose to analyze is “Changes” by Tupac Shakur. The late Tupac Shakur was an African American rapper who was shot dead years ago. His powerful lyrics have impacted the rap industry to this day‚ because he spoke the truth. His lyrics directly related to his everyday struggles‚ and how being a successful African American is not an easy task to achieve.

The two halves of John 12 have a very different tone‚ as Jesus moves from the private eye into the public sphere. Lazarus and his two sisters remain in the narrative as well. One major theme that can be noted in this particular Chapter is the hostility that those who are associated with Jesus face simply for having experienced the benefits of his way.
