Last week, we lost a very important person in our life, someone that was a true gentleman, great at singing and dancing, and married to wonderful Katie with two children, Francie and Neeley. He was a fantastic friend, husband, father, and family member to have. Although we will mourn his loss for the rest of our lives, we can always remember how wonderful he was. Neeley, Johnny’s son, is a wonderful child, and is just like his father. Neeley truly looked up to his father and had him as his role model, since he adored how Johnny was. It is really unfortunate that Johnny won’t be able to see Neeley grow up to be a man and be just like his father. Although, Neeley will always be a constant reminder of our passed love one, which is very reassuring. Neeley will help us remember how good of a man his dad was, but also what Johnny could’ve been. He loves to sing and dance just like his father used to, which always brings Johnny back to our minds. I am very glad that Neeley has been able to endure his father’s loss, enabling him to comfort his mother and sister. Without Neeley, our lives would be much more difficult. …show more content…
Francie would always stay up every night, just to greet her father at the door when he got home. She was always delighted when she heard Johnny singing, while coming up the stairs. Francie would love to talk with Johnny all night since it was the only time she got to see the person she loved the most in the world. After Johnny passed, Francie was absolutely devastated and we all hope that she will recover from such a horrible thing. You always saw the best in Johnny and never thought of the things that belittled how perfect he was to you. We hope that you grow up to be a successful woman, I am sure your father would be so proud of your accomplishments. We hope you can eventually put this behind your back and not have to be haunted by it

“The Lowest Animal” is Mark Twain’s way of criticizing Darwinism, saying humans did not adapt and become better versions of other animals, the animals are the better versions of us. Twain’s words have rotated my perspective 360 degrees, because he is absolutely right, I just never thought about things as deep as he does until I read “The Lowest Animal”. Human beings are cavalier, ungrateful, and narcissistic beings only thinking for themselves. If they are fortunate to have money, they waste it on things they won’t need or will never use, instead of using it to help others in need.

Both American and Iranian culture includes great admiration and pride in the strength of their nation, especially in their own militaries. Joe and Marjane sees this pride all around them and it ends up affecting them both very much. Marjane grows up during the Islamic Revolution and the war against Iraq and she is constantly seeing her own government and world change. Due to growing up surrounded by war and patriotism, Marjane, like her parents, becomes anti-authoritarian in an attempt to distance herself from the nationalistic pride she believes is too out-of-control. Joe, on the other hand, pairs his hatred of Nazi Germany and the helplessness he feels in not being able to save his family with American nationalism and uses this to fuel his

The result of this case will depend upon the existence and completeness of a contract between Johnny and Sally. A legal contract should contain essential elements including a definite, clearly stated offer; an acceptance of the offer; an outline of tasks to be performed; a defined payment or promise of value; a time period or duration for all parties to meet commitments; and terms and conditions for the performance of the tasks (Dasarathy, 2018).
The novel Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo, is a novel that describes the life of Joe, the main character, and how he seems to manage his disabilities after he had fought in the war. Throughout the course of the war, Joe had lost all of his senses, despite touch, and every single limb, after he had gotten hit by a bomb. Once Joe wakes up, he begins falling in and out of consciousness and begins to experience difficulty finding purpose in life after his incident had occurred. Surely enough though, Joe had found a purpose for living again and began to try and communicate with his medical staff, found pleasure in reliving past memories, and became angered when it came to the government's role in supplying him with comfort and “honor”. Along with these ideas of self-identity and warfare corruption, flashback, characterization, and author’s purpose are all literary devices that work to enforce the ideas of identity and warfare. Dalton Trumbo’s Johnny Got His Gun utilizes flashback, characterization and author’s purpose to develop the two central themes that hardship is found in finding one’s self identity and that the true effects of warfare are much worse than the public perceives it as.
