That is what it is like for most American troops that come back from fighting‚ but once they get their life moving from the battlefield they realize that the government that they fought for was not helping them after the fight. No matter how much the general public supports them it still will not help when going down the road. Even though some live life well and easy does not mean they all do.

Do We Learn from our Mistakes? Architecturally speaking‚ I think we learn very little from our mistakes‚ as there are so many thousands of mistakes to make in architecture without repeating a single one. A child may learn not to touch a hot stove‚ but that is because the child receives an immediate response for doing so. This is not true with the mistakes we make as architects. Sometimes years go by before we learn the results of our errors; mostly our ethical errors. Most of the time this

Money in our live Money in our everyday life is very important indeed. We need money to buy food and to pay our bills or lesures. In this modern world‚ most of the things that we want‚ material or otherwise‚ can be obtained in exchange for money. Without money‚ one’s life can become a misery.

We take news and history books about war to create this image of how we see it. War can be looked at in the sense of very heroic and glorified while also be presented with the truth with the terrible events of what has happened and the loss of lives.
