My personal experiences shows that anger is not simply the emotion of a crowd, but begins on the individual level. In our present day society, anger is incredibly contagious, starting at the individual level and it spreads rapidly, often through people with similar views.

When she stated that anger contains a strike back tendency, it caused me to think on whether or not that's true. I found that it almost always is. For example, if something bad happens in our lives that causes us to become angry, we react in whatever way we feel is best. While it may not always be the best option, anger causes us to think that it is. It is a strike back tendency. She gives an example that when something bad happens, the angry person may not always go out and do something, but will instead wish that the law does.

Looking for somewhere to stay, he sees a house with a rooms sign, but assumes it is a brothel and keeps looking. The landlady is genuinely nice to richard for once and gives him a discount room. Richard meets the landlord’s daughter Bess and she has already formed a crush on him. She jumps to fast and starts insinuating marriage and love when Richard thinks they should go on a first date first. Richard gets another job and becomes a dish washer. That night Mrs. Moss sees him eating alone of of a can in his room and feels so bad she starts crying because he didn’t want to intrude on their dinner.

And he'll make our lives a living hell" He gave her another shake for emphasis. "Both our lives. Do you want to get beat up and hog-tied? Do you?" Roy is shown to be greedy because once he finds out that Cheyenne is the daughter to a Nike President he demands a lot of money in trade for her. "And we also need to know how much you think your daddy might part with." He paused to

Defining play can be very difficult. The term play can be used to illustrate a wide range of behaviors and activities, and can be perceived as both essential and insignificant to the child at the same time. Santrock (2012, p.437) suggests a definition of play as "a pleasurable activity that is engaged in for its own sake." However, this is argued by Kernan (2007, p.5) who states that none of the potential definitions are broad enough to encompass all of the meanings associated with play. Despite the lack of such universal definition, Rennie (2003, p.22) claims, that "we can recognize play across barriers of language, of culture, even of species", which conveys its importance in the life and development of children, as it is

However playing is free to practice, safe, without any rules of commitment and no equipment needed. According to some Educational theorist, gaming is behaviorist, whereas playing is constructivist.

I read “Acting Theory and the English Stage, 1700 - 1800” by Lisa Zunshine and it was clearly explained, it read: “ Pride assumes a lofty look, bordering upon the aspect and attitude of anger. The eyes open, but with the eyebrows considerably drawn down; the mouth pointing out, or shut and the lips pinched close. The words, walk out a-strut, with a slow, stiff, bombastic affection of importance.
