But for the purposes of this being for school I will use “screw” it instead. I live like this because in my fifteen years of life I have gone through more than you have in your years on this planet‚ do not ask for details. Living the way I do sucks most of the time and I live out the consequences every day‚ but it is who

    As far as I’m concerned‚ country life has the advantage over city life of the sense of belonging ‚ but living in the city gives people a special feeling of superiority . The inhabitants of countryside are always bound by a sense of community‚ but they also suffer from being cut off from the exciting outside world. They have the advantage of knowing that there is someone to turn to when they need help and some ideal places to go when they need to be alone. The life is simple but cozy enough..But

    What is the Good life? How does one achieve the good life? Is the good life attainable for all people? These questions were all juggled by Socrates in Ancient Greece between 300-400 BCE. Socrates was known for being a great speaker and being able to get his point across to those who listened. Socrates’ knowledge formed the basis for the start of his prodigy Plato‚ who went on to be a famous philosopher of his own right. In The Apology‚ Socrates’ idea of the Good Life is detailed through The Socratic

    subject that they felt so strongly about‚ which in turn‚ ended up being embarrassing to that individual. However Socrates feels that if he did not live and examined his life would have been pointless because he would not have learned of all the knowledge he did. Socrates was not like every other citizen in his time who did not examine life and world around him; he would explore his mind and find knowledge of the ideas‚ thoughts‚ and values in his time period. He would not have learned all different opinions

    The environment around you can cause you to think differently about yourself‚ your family‚ and maybe even your lifestyle.

Mary‚ the other Wes Moore’s mother‚ was offered a Pell Grant into Johns Hopkins University; which gave her hope to get out of poverty

    There are many advantages and disadvantages of choosing to live in the country or to live in the city‚ but the advantages of living in the country definitely outweigh the advantages of living in the city. In the city‚ public schools are often packed full of students resulting in larger class sizes and no real teacher student relationship. One would be lucky if their teacher could put a name to their face; although‚ bigger schools in the city offer more courses for the student to take‚ as

    I can remember as a child always asking myself the "why" questions of life. Why are we here? What is the purpose of life? Why do certain things happen? And is there really a God? I had always kept these questions to myself and eventually pushed them out of my mind altogether. I was raised in a Christian household and you just were not allowed to ask questions of that nature and doubt the faith. The world is the way it is because God made it that way and that is all there is to it. I was really excited

    In Plato’s Apology‚ Socrates states that‚ “The unexamined life is not worth living” (38a). I am using the knowledge learned through hours of class discussion of Socrates from the Euthyphro‚ Apology‚ and Crito to explain what Socrates means by “the examined life‚” and why he thinks that it is the only life worth living‚ and why he thinks that it can be lived only with others‚ in Athens. In doing so‚ I have found that the truth sought by Socrates is much more about the journey that one takes while
