What can the past teach us? This is a very widespread and very used question, but if we think carefully of this question that seems so simple and innocent it has so many meanings and importance to mankind, the present and what may be the future. The past can teach us many things, where we come from, who we are, who were our

I will never forget when I brought some of the residents of the group home coloring books, crayons, stickers and a couple other things from Dollar Tree. They were so happy. One of them kept saying: This is for me Ms. Ashley? You got this for me? It's crazy how a $1 coloring book&stickers can make someone so happy. They didn't care that the crayons would probably break as soon as they used them. That the stickers probably didn't even stick. It was the fact that someone actually thought about them enough to buy them something. I have to admit there are days I want to call off and stay in my bed. But then I think to myself, I have someone depending on me to be there to take care of them. How would I want to be treated if I was them? How would

The novel To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee is historically accurate because the African Americans were considered to be below the white man during the 1930’s. An African American life was lived with especial difficulty since they were only offered the low paying jobs and neighborhoods that nobody cared. In comparison, white men were offered a good education and high paying jobs. A black man once said, “The American white man has been superior so long, he can’t figure out why he should come down” (Burke). African Americans were always treated like they had a lower status than the white man, even when they first came to America. Although slavery had been abolished in 1865, the white Americans did everything in its power

Reach out: Being a senior care provider to someone can be exhausting no matter how much love you have for the person you’re caring for. It’s ok to ask for help and doing so can actually make you better able to continue to be caring and healthy.

Loneliness is something that many people have to go through in their live. The people who have to go encounter this pain can feel depressed and isolated. In Of Mice and Men there are three main characters that exemplify this Curley’s wife, Candy, and Crooks. Curley’s wife because is a victim of this because no one wants to talk to her, Candy’s old so people keep away from him, and Crooks is a different skin color, which makes people discriminate against him.

I’m going to start off by talking about mentors. He talks about how your family has a huge impact on who you are and how you will act. If you start to portray your mentors then you will start to portray your family. I know this isn’t true with every

Loneliness also comes from the gender disagreements. Reading "Mr. Green" of Robert Olen Butler, we can deeply understand how torment the granddaughter experiences when her sex is female. "You are a girl, so it is not possible for you to do it alone. Only a son can oversee the worship of his ancestors" (Halpern, page 111). It is just a word – a line – a speech of the grandfather, but it hurts his kid and the female intensely.

It is also very important for caregivers to keep up their own social contacts. It is very common for caregivers to withdraw from their social groups and stop going to social outings. Many family caregivers go years without seeing their friends or engaging with their peer group. In order to maintain a healthy emotional and cognitive state, caregivers need to give themselves permission to take a break, to relax, and to maintain personal relationships. By utilizing in home care for seniors support, caregivers can free up time to maintain their own sense of freedom and increase their own quality of life.

For as long as I can remember, my parents always showed their care for me, and with everything they did, they kept their children in mind. Although what they did wasn’t always in the best interests of my siblings and I, they never intended to harm us. What strengthened our love even more was all of the struggles we faced together. These things, although shocking to others, are what strengthened our family’s bond. Even after my father became a serious alcoholic, he never stopped caring for us. My love for him and my mother reciprocated this. Throughout my childhood, my mother and father never stopped trying to do the best for their kids. They simply did it in their own special ways. Because of their dedication to me, I never gave up on them, even if at times, it may not have been the best idea.”

Instead of forgetting and moving forward, sometimes people needed to continue to help others in similar, or even worse situations; “’It’s what bother me the most now, knowing that they are still there and I’m home. I hope we can do more to help more people’” (Stevenson 241). Marsha Colbey understood the struggles of the women she knew from prison, and instead of putting that trauma away, she used it to help others like her, and helped those that gave her the hope to persevere through those years. Role models built the foundation that people who share experiences can follow and look up to. My father, Michael Kim cited his own commanding officer as a the one who taught him “what it means to serve God and country” (Kim). As a teenager myself, having a role model like my father, someone who went through the same situations and troubles as me helped me when I went through difficult times in my life. Whether someone worked as a teacher, officer, or just happened to be a stranger passing by, everyone can help each other persevere through our lives. Without the presence of another person, people who felt lost, feel that their life could end with just a few

During the changing of world economy, it is increasingly common to hear the term ‘emerging markets’ and from news and report. In the mid-1980s, the term ‘emerging markets’ was created by the World Bank, and has significant influence on the global business world nowadays (Gwynne, Klak and Shaw 2003). To raise investor’s attention to those developing countries, there are numerous characteristics springing up which are given by researches and economists. However, some of those characteristics are contradictory and it is difficult to give a real definition. This essay discusses the main characteristics of ‘emerging markets’ as defined by the World Bank and economists.

Looking back through my life, i have realized my mother has taught me the most. The one who means the most to me, the one person that has been the absolute best she can be for me and our family, always. The strongest most wise human being i know has been in my life since day one, which i am forever grateful for. “The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything.” This quote is something my mom has always lived by and taught her kids at a young age. We weren’t rich, didn’t have everything we needed at times but we always had our family and love that went all around, which was enough for us.

Throughout our lifetime, us as people decide to admire different objects, ideas, and people due to what pleases their thoughts and actions. The infinite examples of things we could’ve valued could’ve been toys, friends, book, etc.. But then we began to mature and begin to come out of our little shells to discover new products, views of the world, and new ways to advance in our technology and therefore influencing what we value today. And as I matured in my lifetime, I established a novel value to my parents the greatest.

My father's protectiveness and selflessness generated at a young age for him. He is the ninth of twelve children, and often told us stories of how he had to look after, and practically raise his three younger siblings after my grandfather had passed. He made certain they completed their chores around my grandmother's farm, maintained good hygiene practices, and kept up with their schoolwork. School was extremely important to my father, because he knew an education was the only way he could be successful.
