The emotions one experiences after being fed is one of the most satisfactory feelings known to mankind. That feeling has a name, it is called fodotion. Fodotion is most accurately defined as the feeling of elate satisfaction an individual can experience after receiving a full meal when hungry. Fodotion is also associated with the locale of the feeling (example: this room reminds me of where I first experienced fodotion). The thought of fodotion calls to the forefront of the mind memories of warm homes, hot food, and friendly faces.

To many people, a lie has little significance. Some people tell lies as a way to cover something up, make a different name for themselves, or just to make excuses. No matter what the situation, my father has constantly reminded me that the truth will set you free, and as I get older even though I am still in my youth, the more I realize the truth and importance of that statement. To me a lie is a form of disloyalty, the less you respect the person the more you lie to them as a way to cover up your true identity. A lie is when you mislead what is really the truth; where you don’t tell the full truth in order to deceive someone, or you avoid being honest at all. There are several different outcomes to

During the Medieval times being more merciful developed in the Western World with the Christian civilization, with the concept of Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
