In John Shanely’s Doubt there are two sides the reader can take at the end of the play. The side of Sister Aloysius, claiming the Father Flynn was guilty, or the side of Father Flynn, claiming that he is innocent.

Our actions and interactions with others and society are what define us. Society’s perception of an individual may contrast with that individual’s perception of self.

“Everyone in society should be a role model, not only for their own self-respect, but for respect from others.” ~ Barry Bonds. In this world bad situations occur frequently and it takes a good strong person to handle them in a mature way. Dealing with them this way not only shows that the person has self-control, but also makes them a good role model for people to look up to.

Having this kind of position causes stress at times, and requires him to stay calm and level headed. Throughout this book, Mr. Galanter

The song "Stressed Out" by Twenty-One Pilots is a story about a struggling singer which seems familiar to the audience on a personal level. While exploring such sensitive topics as stress, becoming an adult, and nostalgia, it also touches upon the issue of originality.

Our experiences and life journey plays a big role in who we are and what our identity is, but its also internal. Tyler, like many of us, has struggled with issues such as depression, suicidal thoughts, feelings of inadequacy, and the feeling of being alone. These feelings and issues can often have a major effect on our identity and how we view the world, and it can often be seen in our creative expressions. Tyler Joseph found a way to channel these experiences through his music and connect with his listeners and acknowledge that life is not always easy and full of good things. Some specific lines from his music that resonates with young audiences come from the song “Screen” and say, “While you're doing fine, there's some people and I/Who have a really tough time getting through this life” (TØP lines 19-20). From just these lines alone it is clear that Tyler has had some ups and downs in his life that left memories or scars that stuck with him. These experiences, although unknown, had such a massive effect on him that he expresses them in his writing. They make up who he is now, and he uses his influence to let others know that they are not alone in what they’re feeling. Writing songs is not only a therapeutical way for him to speak his mind, but it is also a way to be honest with listeners and show them a raw and vulnerable side of someone that is often placed on a
