Soul Agenda Analysis

“The life course is the progression and path an individual takes from conception to death, and considers that the whole life of the individual presents opportunities for development, change and growth” (Crawford and Walker 2010).

Today, one of the leading problems discussed in politics is healthcare. America constantly struggles with their healthcare system to make it affordable and accessible to communities. In the twentieth century this same problem also existed, creating one of the most well-known African American activist groups in America. In the book Body and Soul by Alondra Nelson, it discusses the social inequalities of the healthcare system in America and how the Black Panther Party fought against medical discrimination for African Americans. Nelson talks about how the Black Panther Party went from the role of protecting black citizens to a larger political role in African American health care. The significance of this book applies to medical sociology in many ways and is essential to the understanding of providing better healthcare to future generations. In the following book review, it includes a summary of each chapter to highlight the main points, some of the very many medical sociology concepts that could be applied, and lastly an evaluation of the book as a whole and its significance to our course.

I was able find All Souls through one of Damla’s Weekly Check-ins from October. Damla created and sent out an excel sheet with different organizations with a 501c3 status, separating them under different borough labels.

Observe the U.S, ATTN reports that the number of students in Home economics has decreased approximately 38%in a period of ten years. Now observe the local towns of Myrtle Point and Powers…That is right, there no longer is Home economics. Our students, my peers, we will not only fail at washing laundry we will fail ourselves along the way. If these two towns were to provide a training center for young adults I’d want what I believe we need. We need the knowledge to know how to take care of ourselves. Life skill classes could give us the power to do just that.

The imagery in this book is pretty miraculous. The majority of this book is built on the feeling the main character, Kenna, has through the book, the sights, sounds and smells she gets to experience. You can see and feel alongside Kenna as the author drags her through hell, and heaven, because of the vivid imagery the author uses. Some of the best imagery comes when the main character syphons souls, or as the book would have it, “culls” the souls. During one particular event in the book Kenna was put in a bind when she had to help her sister, who was withering away again after the first time she healed her with the souls she had culled from the surrounding area. Kenna looked for something to cull to heal her sister until she saw a stag. Lunging

A year has pass since the battle with Aizen was won, but it caused the great hero to lose his powers. Decided not to further the substitute hero in the involvement of Soul Society.

Chapter one in the book Constructing a life Philosophy shows a variety of opinions on life philosophies. From what I understood from reading all four of the views was that they believe it wise for people to be flexible in the way we live our lives. I would like to discuss further what each of them had to say.

This quote is very clear on the meaning of what the King says, and the force it talks about is referencing to what is called “The Soul of the World.” Throughout the novel, this force is constantly being mentioned after Santiago's encounter with The King of Salem, he gets Santiago to do all these strange task but with a purpose. The tasks are test to make sure that Santiago will always keep his eyes open to his surroundings, to never give up, and to make sure Santiago is committed. Additionally, The King then tells about this mysterious force that wants him to realize his personal legend, the Soul of the World, with also the help of helping him along his journey.

In T.A. the life-script is an important concept as all transactions, games, ego-states and the concepts they encompass relate to the re-enforcement of an individual’s life script. Berne defined life-script as;

The world we live in today is growing at an extremely fast pace. It seems to be that everyday there are more buildings being built, more concrete being poured, and more free land being destroyed. The cause of these events is the worlds’ population rate. Every day our population reaches an all-time high, every day we gain more mouths to feed, and every day we are losing ways to feed these mouths. Food insecurity has risen significantly along with the rise of our population. We must find ways to lower the food insecurity rate by finding new farming practices, making the public more aware of this issue, and doing more ourselves to make sure that we make a change to this problem.

I have felt that unbearable judgement come from friends, family, and society. As a result of my trials, my perception of the world changed forever. This brings me to my second theme, knowledge. The mistakes I have made in my life allowed me to evolve in the most unexpected way. I was able to cultivate a new level of passionate intellect on the subjects of human nature, social organizations, and morality. I was also introduced to the idea that not all human beings are good, and that I must have a level of protection for myself. This concept that people could be evil, was both exhilarating and liberating. I was also able to accept that our genetics, experiences, and personalities, shape how we perceive the world and others. This ideology brings me to the third theme,

The most controversial topic of today’s time in the world of accounting is fair value. However, one common point of confusion is the scale of businesses affected by fair value, and when fair value came onto the scene. According to Robert Herz and Linda MacDonald “...the use of fair value in financial reporting is not new. In fact, it has been in place for decades, principally for financial assets. But even then, fair value is not required for all assets.” (2008) The idea of using fair value measurements goes back at least to the 1930’s when Kenneth MacNeal wrote Truth in Accounting. It wasn’t until 1993, however, until the FASB released SFAS 115. SFAS 115 addresses the accounting and reporting for investments in equity securities that have readily determinable fair values and for all investments in debt securities. (FASB 1993) In 2006 the FASB released SFAS 157, which established a framework for measuring fair value. SFAS 157 also requires significantly more disclosures about fair value estimates than ever before. (FASB 2006) Finally the FASB issues SFAS 159, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. (FASB 2007) These statements set the stage for the discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of fair value. Also discussed, will be the problems with implementation of a full fair value measurement system. That discussion will be followed by a brief summary.

There is one thing for certain in this world, everyone wants to accomplish something in life and we want to recognize our full potential. In order to do this we must have some skills, and in this case it’s life skills. Life skills are a range of characteristics we

My interest in the social work profession became apparent during the fall semester of my junior year when I was enrolled in Social Work 205 and sociology. I had finally found subjects that I thoroughly enjoyed and academically excelled in. The events and experiences in my past and the current activities in which I am involved, have helped me narrow my studies to solely social work and has took part in shaping my hopes and plans for my first entry-level position in my chosen career after receiving my degree from WKU.

One of David’s conclusion is that people besides learning and acquiring practical skills from the formal education or training. People also need something more than the practical skills, which is something of a different nature and it is something someone concludes self. Swenson states that youth requires developing a view of life in order to become a good person in moral and developed personalities. The view of life is not acquired through training and learning provided by general means of formal education or experience, but is obtained individually through thinking over someone’s life, self-exploring and subjective conviction. The reason for developing such view of life is that view of life is the mean of giving one’s life. “it is a principle of living, a spirit and an attitude capable of maintaining its unity and identity with itself in all of life’s complexities and varying vicissitudes.” Said by Swenson. It is the sense, dignity and worth. Otherwise, a life cannot be considered to be as living in a human
