The Love Of Family

As Simba bolts after Rafiki, he encounters minor obstacles. He has to dodge branches and roots, untangle from the webs of spiders webs, and unknot himself from vines that were holding him back. These minor incidences reinforce the challenge that is about to be placed upon him by Mufasa and Rafiki. Mufasa and Rafiki try and convince Simba that he must go back and take his home over from Scar, but in order to do so he must free his mind from the past. Eventually while doing so, Simba realizes the web of lies Scar told about Mufasa’s death, resulting in the removal of his own guilt. While running he was dodging the roots and branches, just like he was dodging his lineages responsibility. After the discussion with Rafiki, Simba also gets over the past that was keeping him back and tied down away from Pride Rock.

Spurred by the arrival of his childhood girlfriend, Nala, Simba concludes that he must return home, defeat Scar, and assume his rightful place on the throne. However, his attempt initially fails and Scar chases Simba to the edge of a cliff, thus bringing about the same situation in that Mufasa died in years ago. At this moment, Scar whispers the truth of Mufasa’s death to Simba. Triggered by Scar's confession, Simba defies all odds and heroically leaps up off the edge of the rock and forces Scar to confess to Mufasa's murder. After Scar’s confirmation, Simba feeds Scar to the hyenas that were once his allies. Finally, Simba claims his rightful kingship of Pride Rock, thus rejuvenating and restoring the balance of the kingdom, and leaving a sense of boon. Nonetheless, had it not been for the presence of supernatural forces guiding him along his journey, Simba would have never been able to complete his mental development in the jungle which led to his decision of coming back.

Mufasa and Simba share a special bond and throughout the film his identity begins to emulate that of his fathers. Simba develops a strong belief structure based on courage and respect due to his father’s

Her parents kept her safe from the men fighting for her betrothal and from harm of any sort. When their death occurred it was a roadblock, but when she was told more about her birth parents she felt an overwhelming amount of emotions. She loved her adoptive parents and though she might not remember her birth parents she still knows that they loved her and she can not help, but love them back. They wanted what was best for her even if it meant giving her up to be able to save her life and let her have a normal childhood. She knew that they were gone from her life and there was nothing she could do about it. She could, however, change that fact that she had no family. She let the brothers into her life and they were there for her through every roadblock and challenge she faced, they helped lift her up when she was down. That is what family is a support system. Her father “would remind me that situations were only as bad as I allowed them to be, and my situation of being without a family was over. I had everything I needed here with me now” (location 5113). She was taught from a young age that she was in charge of her life and her world and nothing could change that. A family does not depend on how they are related to you, but how they impact your life. Cheyennes parents impacted her life them most and taught her so much that they are the key to her development and growth as a human being. She is not defined

Throughout this novel, the focus of family becomes very inattentive and mysterious. One family such as the Finches remained a whole, had each other’s back, but also had disagreements, as normal families would. This was the only common type family that tried to live under correct rules and laws as well as making sure each individual stayed under one household. As for the others, they seemed to be quite different. The Cunninghams were the country, poor family that never complained about a thing. The Ewells were the spoiled and selfish family that never seemed to do what was right. The Harris’s , Dill’s family from Mississippi, seemed to be careless and unprotected. Some of these groups of relatives relate back to the families in S.E Hinton’s book, “The Outsiders.”

When his father, Mufasa, is killed in a wildebeest stampede, he is faced with the guilt he feels for causing the stampede and goaded by his uncle Scar to run away. Scar then sends his hyenas to hunt down and kill Simba. This begins one of the many trials Simba must face throughout his hero’s journey. These hyenas are the same hyenas that Mufasa saved Simba from; so now Simba is alone, afraid, and unwilling to fight. Finally Simba escapes into the heat and despair of the desert. When Simba gives up, he is saved by the comedic duo Timon and Pumba. Timon and Pumba take in Simba, teaching him their way of life. This way of life revolves mainly around the phrase “Hakuna Matata”, which means to forget the troubled past and live in the present. Simba grows up with Timon and Pumba, hiding his past and pulling himself away from Pride Rock completely. This seems to work in our hero’s favor until a blast from his past side swipes the rug right out from under Simba. Nala, who was desperately scavenging for food, runs into Simba and almost immediately brings every memory back that Simba worked so hard to forget. Nala tells Simba that Scar and his hyenas have taken over Pride Rock, that all the animals have left, and all

Simba is born and is acquainted with the Pride Lands. Mufasa his father, is the ruler of the land and anticipates that Simba will carry on like the prince that he is so that one day he can be the lord of the Pride Lands.

For example in the book and the movie Tris’s family help her overcome challenges. Her brother and father help her break into the Dauntless compound to save the city, and they all risk their lives for her. Also in the book the phrase faction before blood is emphasised in their society. Although this is a rule all the initiates struggle to forget their families.

What is family? Businessman and former Ford president, Lee Iacocca once said, “The only rock I know that stays steady, the only institution I know that works, is the family.” If you stripped away all the glitz and glamour of your life, what would be left? There is only one answer for me, family. Whenever life’s most challenging moments arise and you are brought to your knees, your family will be the rock on which you can stand. Family is everything to me and I would not be the man that I am today without the love and support that my family has unconditionally given to me.

It has been fifteen years since my parents and my brother Jack adopted me. I was only two then, but now i’m seventeen. I love my life, I have a happy, loving family, I live in a nice house on a farm in Maine, my brother Jack is my bestfriend but I also have other friends, and I have a boyfriend named Justin. I guess you could say my life is perfect. Expect there’s more to me than you think. I’m adopted and even though I love my life there is still a part of me that wants to find my birth parents and know more about them. My parents tell me all about my birth dad. His name is Joseph.

I like to describe myself as a bubbly person; I am definitely a glass half full kind of girl; I love sunny days, the color pink, and peppy songs. At the same time I love pretty much anything girly, working with kids, history, reading, animals, hair, makeup, and talking about the Bible. My family has always discussed everything, and I guess that's where my love of discussing things comes from. I am the oldest of five kids and have two brothers, and two sisters. Mckinley is 15, Savanna is 13, Lincoln is 11, and Abel is 4. I have been homeschooled my entire life and enjoy a close relationship with my siblings and parents. My Dad is a state farm agent, but he spends his extra time studying hebrew, and my Mom is a full time homeschool mom and wife/super woman extraordinaire. We live in Davenport, Iowa right on the mississippi river.
