The song I picked for this homework assignment is called Runaway Love by Ludacris and Mary J. Blige. The song is describing the hardships of three young girls and their struggle to survive. Finally, the girls are fed up with the lives they are forced to live and decide to pack up their things and run away. I think this song can relate to many aspects of sociology that we have learned in class. Some examples shown through the song are poverty, education, healthcare, marriage and family. All three girls’ different stories and struggles they face.

In Arlie Russell Hochschild’s, “Love and Gold,” she depicts the economic influences that turn choices of mothers in Third World countries into a precondition. Similarly, in Toni Morrison’s, Sula, a recurring theme of the struggle between independence, the ability to choose, and doing what’s best for others, or coerced decisions, is imminent throughout the entire novel and revolved around the main character, Sula. Often times the factor that weighs down choice is responsibility. Choices are seemingly infinite until you factor in what choices will affect which people and why. Both mothers and caregivers have to put their dependent before themselves, therefore limiting their

She Loves Me takes place in the 1930s and is an enchanted romantic musical play about two people falling in love with one another. The two main actors, Mr. Nowack and Ms. Balash, work together in a saloon and from the very beginning they could never stand one another’s presence. One reason why they could not get along is that Mr. Nowack thought Ms. Balash was arrogant while she believed he was selfish and parsimonious. If they were in the same room with one another for too long they would cause some dramatic scene. Every time they were in the saloon working together they would have all the attention from the customers and or other employees because of their nonstop bickering arguments.

The two actors started realizing that they were falling for each other when they would sing iconic songs such as: “She Loves Me”, “Will He Like Me”, and “Vanilla Ice Cream”. Further, into the play, Mr.

The use of symbolism and imagery is beautifully orchestrated in a magnificent dance of emotion that is resonated throughout the poem. The two main ideas that are keen to resurface are that of personal growth and freedom. Furthermore, at first glimpse this can be seen as a simple poem about a women’s struggle with her counterpart. However, this meaning can be interpreted more profoundly than just the causality of a bad relationship.
