you are approached with an opportunity‚ you have a choice to take or leave it. That’s the thing about opportunities‚ you never know what might come out of them‚ whether it benefits you or someone else.

Of Mice and Men is not kind in its portrayal of women. In fact‚ women are treated with contempt throughout the course of the book. Steinbeck generally depicts women as troublemakers who bring ruin on men and drive them mad. Curley’s wife‚ who walks the ranch as a temptress‚ seems to be a prime example of this destructive tendency—Curley’s already bad temper has only worsened since their wedding. Aside from wearisome wives‚ Of Mice and Men offers limited‚ rather misogynistic‚ descriptions of women

Loneliness is a basic part of human life. Every one becomes lonely ones in a while but in Steinbeck’s novella “Of Mice and Men”‚ he illustrates the loneliness of ranch life and shows how people are driven to try finding friendship in order to escape from loneliness.

The Blind Side I have decided to write my paper on the character Michael Oher‚ from the movie The Blind Side. It is based on a true story of the offensive lineman for the Baltimore Ravens in the NFL. Michael basically raised himself. He was taken from his mother at age seven because she was a frequent drug abuser. He was placed in several different foster homes but he always ran away. Because of Michael’s massive size‚ he was referred to as “Big Mike”. By the age of 17‚ he found himself sleeping
