Descriptive Essay About Shepherds

In all aspects of life, Humans spend an incredible amount of time wondering if their class is high enough and acceptable. We tend to care so much about what others think of us, that we expect so much more from ourselves than what is possible. Which, in short represents that we are not living for ourselves. The lives we were given to enjoy as a whole and embrace. Rather we are living someone else’s life, which locks us in a dark prison of expectations and the key to freedom gets thrown away. Living a life where you care so much about what others think of you is as if we are nothing but sheep being herded to the final slaughterhouse! In “Rocking Horse Winner”, the author D.H. Lawrence paints a portrait of how the mother Hester can never truly be satisfied with what she poseses since she is always worried about the status and ranking of her class. The most important concern to her is looking respectable, presentable, and nice. In addition, in the story “A Goodman Is Hard To Find”, the author Flannery O’Connor paints the same portrait representing how the Grandmother always has to look presentable, and how she always has to look like a lady. Both of these characters in both stories have the same problem in common. They both are haunted by the fact that they

He saw a potential opportunity to talk to the girls, but the fact that Lengel had made them blush in a negative way had angered him as he felt the embarrassment was unnecessary. The combined frustration of his environment convinced him to attempt to be the “hero” and win over the girl’s attention even though it was a failure. Updike writes, “The girl, and who'd blame them, are in a hurry to get out, so I say “I quit” to Lengel quick enough for them to hear, hoping they’ll stop and watch me, their unsuspected hero.” Later on he continues, “I look around for my girls, but they’re gone.” Such dialogue hints that his desire to win the girls over was also a minor contribution toward his departure from A&P especially when he states, ‘“You didn’t have to embarrass them.”’

The cattle industry in the past as well as today would be nothing without the help of man's best friend. Herding dogs are the best known working dogs. These unique dogs have an instinct to herd and with the right training will help a farmer or rancher move his herd without any trouble, as long as the dog is responsive to the ranchers hand signals and whistles. The best way to train a dog is to have it work along side an already experienced dog. They are keen, alert, responsive, and extremely intelligent. Numerous dogs have evolved into just show dogs or pets, but there are a few that are still used on farms and ranches.

“‘A new servitude! ...What do I want? A new place, in a new house, amongst new faces, under new circumstances: I want this because it is of no use wanting anything better.’”

In John Updike’s story “A&P,” we are treated to the scene of an ordinary store as told through the eyes of the narrator, Sammy. Throughout the story he looks upon the aisles with a dour eye, even going so far as to call the occupants “sheep” (Updike 164). The exceptions to this contempt are three girls that are obviously from a different, more affluent town, whom Sammy immediately takes a liking to upon seeing them. When Sammy’s manager, Lengel, comments that they are indecent, Sammy decides to quit his job to “…be their unexpected hero.” While this decision may seem, and is, incredibly childish, it is more layered than a simple act of amorism. Indeed, Sammy’s decision to quit his job in “A&P” is one that is

In the short story, “A & P” by John Updike, I believe that Sammy’s act of quitting was unquestionably a form of rebellion; however, it was additionally an act of him making a statement to show Lengel and the girls his masculinity and courageousness. Whether it be to impress Queenie or listen to his moral conscience and do the so called, “right thing” in his mind, the meaning of his actions reveal that at the end of the day, your decisions in the present effect your outcome in the future. I’ve inferred that Sammy realizes this as the story progresses as we can pick up on the various details about how he finds his job mind-numbing and repetitious leading him to realize that he does not want to spend the rest of his life working behind a cash register at A & P. The combination of his impulsive personality, raging teenage hormones, and the curiosity about his future all leads to him to make this impulsive decision which warrants himself as the unconscious target of his own rebellion. It is crucial for a twenty-first century reader to realize that this story takes place in the 1960’s; a time when the youth was reinventing their culture. From both the girls and Sammy’s viewpoint, it is obvious to see Lengel as the enemy here for he is the initial creator of conflict.

As the girls prepared to make their purchase, the store manager came suddenly and embarrassed them in front everybody. “Girls, this is not the beach.” (163). While Queenie explained why she was at the store. The manager kept embarrassing them. “We want you decently dressed when you come in here” (164). Sammy was watching silently how the manager talked to girls. Sammy was not happy by the way he talked and treated them. Even Though, it took place over the period of a few minutes, it represented a much larger process of growth. From the time the girls enter the grocery store, to the moment they leave. Sammy was a whole different person. At first, he saw only the physicality of the girls, how they looked and what they were wearing. He observes their actions and how they affected the other customers. However, Sammy noticed that that the girls were more than that. Sammy started to feel bad about the way the girls were being viewed by others. His thought process was maturing and he started to see things as an adult might see them. Hoping the girls will notice his chivalrous gesture, Sammy abruptly quits his job in protest. Realizing that he might later regret his impulsive action, Sammy nevertheless follows through with his decision to quit, and walked off the job. He no longer wanted to be part of something that discourages uniqueness. This Even though Lengel was been friend of

Distracted by the trio of girls, Sam causes the woman to gripe about his lax in service. Consequently, Sam’s point of view sways reader's opinions of the woman to develop a miffed distaste for her as she leaves the store with a hearty snort and huff. However, Sam's influence is sprinkled throughout the story especially at the climax of the story, the girls finally make their way over to Sam’s check-out counter . Mr. Lengel, the dreary store manager, spies the scantily clothed girls and walks over to gently inform the girls that the store is not a beach and that they should be decently dressed when they enter the store. This causes the girls to blush in embarrassment and refute his claim. Yet, he doesn’t argue with them but simply asserts the store policy. As readers, when we isolate the manager’s interactions with the girls, he is harmless and lays down the law without insult, after all, it is their policy and it’s not unreasonable. However, Sam’s hormones kick in when he sees the

I glanced around at the groups of individuals and saw how they were all taking a gander at me, I looked down at the ground in shame. Most of my days I wish I could be off various shading as I believe that life would be so considerably simpler and I myself would not be disgraced upon. At the present time my compensation is gradually going down because of the bank and the joblessness rate in America. The unemployment is awful in light of the fact that it's going down, yet the dread of losing my job is even more nerve wracking as I get told every day that I am pointless for society which makes me significantly more anxious for what the future holds. I stopped with my daydream when I looked up at the building that was standing in front of me, the only place that offered me a job them all so long four months ago. I took a deep breath and walked into the factory, I looked to my left at how many people worked here and noticed that even more people were gone. I shivered in fright of the thought of losing my job and quickly put the dirty apron on that said my name and went to the back, the place where I

As I lay in bed on a fall evening, an open window lets in a cool breeze accompanied with sounds of crickets and a faint train horn blare. As I peer out into the dark night sky I see an ebony sky glittered with stars. A sense of calm washes over me and I know I’m right where I’m meant to be! It’s a small town, Galt, with a population under 23,000. I didn’t grow up here, but it’s where I’ve lived for the past ten years, and it’s where I’ve chosen to raise my children. The town is a combination of city and farm living. Children from the same school either take a long bus ride through the desolate and diminishing backroads every morning, or a short walk through the peaceful and charming subdivisions to reach their destination. There is a mixture

I felt the dust build up in my lungs, as I let out a throaty cough as the polluted dust contaminates the air I breathe, and my eyes goes foggy as my vision blurs. The amount of people that filled the streets as I continued my strenuous journey to the factory, all dressed in dirt ridden clothes with too many children and not enough food or money to feed all the mouths in the house. My day in the factory was just as horrible as usual, receiving a beating from Ugly Collins again for not being able to spin as much cotton as maybe my mother or even Celia would have. Afterwards, I continued to spin more cotton all day from dawn until the sun set, wiping away the blood trickling down my forehead with my worn out, wounded hands as if it wasn’t there. The life of the middle class was mediocre at best, and all of us are just hoping for a better life for our future and our children. As much as how drastic of a dream this could be or overly optimistic, but all wish is to see some improvements in our working conditions, and that work may be regulated or at conditions where work is actually

Later, I came along and my dad working at a manufacture in Darlington. My parents’ struggles gave me the courage and strength I have to move forward to strive in life to have no limits. Because in my time it was the Haves and Haves Not I was considered the Haves. My life became an icon as people assumed by my characteristic of dreaming big that I was big as it relates to riches. I never thought dressing appropriately or keeping up with modern fashion would speak for my status as being rich. It was then I realize that the amount of money people assumed I had determined who they thought I was. My mother often told me to never let money determine who I was. I wondered how society was able to label personal values, such as rich and career achievements one holds to being
