The Peter Reflection

In this first section of Crito, Socrates examines how the wording of a sentence can change its meaning using simple apprehension. He and Crito are trying to argue about whether or not "one must pay attention to the opinions of some people and not to others" Apparently that was said on multiple occasions, and Socrates is wondering if "it was correct on each occasion." He then changes the wording to "it is necessary to pay serious attention to some of the opinions that men hold and not to others" and asks Crito if he still agrees with it. Socrates is trying to figure out if we are talking about people or their opinions when we make statements about what we should listen to. This is important because while we should not listen to the opinions of someone like Hitler if he said that it was his opinion that 2+2 was equal to 4, we should not discount it just because Hitler said it! Crito does not mean this, but judging by his first statement, it is hard to tell.

In class, we read the book The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls. This book was about the crazy childhood Jeanette experienced. Jeanette had to become independent at a very young age, since her parents didn’t seem to take responsibility for their children. She learned how to do many things on her own, like boil hotdogs at the age of three. Jeanette’s family was also always on the move; they drove miles and miles until her parents found a small town where they wanted to settle down for a little while. She became familiar with her dad’s term the “skedaddle,” which means they would just pick up and leave in a hurry. Because of all these sudden changes in Jeanette’s life, she had to start a new life for herself everywhere she went, such as starting a new school, making new friends, and adapting to the way of living in that

This week’s meeting with my mentee David went very well. We discussed about the campus resources on school and talked about his academic standing in his classes. I felt pretty confident with campus resources because of previous experiences with my mentor. Also, I utilize the campus resources binder in the Prospect's office to gather more information about the different types of resources there is on campus. After talking about the different resources, we then walked to specific resources that would benefit David and learned more about it there.

Success is the act of achieving something, success usually comes following the practice for the desired event. We have all heard that you can only succeed with practice and preparation, which is a true statement; to my knowledge. However, some feel differently towards this statement they either feel that success can come with either natural talent, or pure luck. With this being said, I can understand why some may feel this way, but the truth of the matter is that it's a necessity to practice and practice efficiently in order to succeed.

This art interpretation of Peter depicts Peter sitting on a marble seat from the early Renaissance, holding a key in his let hand while his right hand raised as a form of blessing. Dressed in a stole, and wearing a ring and a halo surrounding his head. Due to the presentation of Peter illustrated through the symbolism of the key as well as his extended foot emphasises the amount of praise from individuals as well as trust and faithfulness that Jesus and him had shared with one another.

My nomination was based on the notion that Mr. Langford has implemented numerous empirical treatment modalities and methods into Ashland Day Treatment in a very short amount of time (under a year).This was achieved while encouraging and motivating staff to increase their personal expectations and commitment to the facility. Ashland Day Treatment now appears to be revitalized and becoming a major impact in our small community. Since Mr. Langford’s arrival at ADTC it appears to have brought an increase of positive energy and support that has become contagious to everyone involved in the program. He is a major supporter of family involvement and is constantly including family members to the maximum extent possible into our curriculum. Recently

I am really looking forward to this course. I hope it is going to expand my horizons and open me up to Indigenous culture. I am metis but my father and grandfather consider themselves apples-red on the outside, white on the inside. They spoke of no positives of having native blood and were/are constantly racist toward their own kind. They both feel a hatred towards Indigenous people because of the stereotypes associated with them, and have pushed the culture away instead of embracing it and proving stereotypes wrong. My grandfather died hating who he was and I want to prevent that in myself and my dad and I think the more I can learn about Indigenous thought the more prepared I will be to do so.

Thank you for the compliment and interest for reading my post. It was rare, rewarding experience and witnessed the drastic weight loss of my patient. I apologize that I did not add the other medical conditions and the other treatment that he was receiving. My patient was receiving a feeding tube before he came to our facility. He has multiple medical history such as cerebrovascular disease, dysphagia, congestive heart failure with severe lymphedema. I addressed the lymphedema and intensive exercise. The dietician, nurses and attending physician were monitoring him carefully. He was on a restricted calorie fluid intake and was receiving a fluid pill and multiple medications.

The Bible gives us the first love poem in creation in Adam’s response when he first sees Eve. In Genesis 2:23, Adam says, “This is now bone of my bones, flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man (KJV).” Milton in Paradise Lost goes into a deeper description of Adam’s first glimpse of Eve, saying that he saw her creation in a dream while he was asleep, then woke, and was “left […] dark,” and he thought he would “find her, or forever […] deplore / Her loss (VIII.478-479).” Once he sees her, and she is brought to him, Milton expands further on the Biblical account. Eve, however, has a different version of their first meeting. According to Milton in Book IV, when Eve is first given sentience, she wanders a bit and finds a pond that shows her reflection. She is rapt by her own beauty, and seems that she could easily slip into a Narcissus-type episode, if left to stare. But, God tells her it is her reflection, that it is not permanent, but that there is someone corporeal waiting for her. She follows the voice and sees Adam, whom she finds “fair indeed and tall, / […] yet methought less fair, / Less winning soft, less amiably mild, / Than that smooth watery image (477-480).” She then turns away from him. Milton gives his readers two obviously different characters, the question becomes whether these two proto-married people even seem to love each other, and why Biblical submission is established as it is in Genesis and Milton.

The inspiration for creating “Of Two Minds” (Munro, 2016) began when reviewing a course reading for our first class, by the City of Toronto entitled “Quick facts about homelessness and social housing in Toronto.” (n.d.) I was drawn to a particular statistic that showed approximately 447 people slept rough (on the street) on one night in April of 2013. (City of Toronto, n.d.) With this stat still lingering in the back of my mind, an epiphanic moment arose when my instructor outlined our final project parameters. Allowing for an alternative medium through which I could express my acquired course knowledge, I formed a short narrative in my mind that I knew would lead to a greater understanding of homelessness for myself and perhaps, my classmates.

What is the influence one classroom and one teacher can have on a person's writing? The answer being “a lot” because being a part of one English class my sophomore year made it possible for me to understand more about writing and the skills needed to achieve at the process. The teacher that I had such great communication with that year not only made it possible for me to understand what I was doing wrong, but how I could fix my problems. Without changing my writing from the past, I would still be stuck with essays and papers that lack flow and structure. Writing is such a great skill that is strongly needed in the field I wish to study and eventually one day work for in the future. While to some English and writing may not be important,

Peter, a boy diagnosed with Down Syndrome, was first seen filmed as a third-grader entering his first year in a general classroom rather than one with only students with disabilities. “Educating Peter,” was a film made in 1992 following Peter’s journey being the first child with a severe mental disability, to be included in a general classroom at his elementary school. Elementary school was a challenge for Peter, his parents and his teachers. However, as Peter continues to get older, the film “Graduating Peter,” showcases the story of Peter’s academic accomplishments and struggles as he prepares to graduate from high school. A particular part of the video that stood out to me was when Peter’s mother talked about the loss of control she

In the final days of this semester, one tends to look back at the work done over a difficult and long three months. In the case of this English composition class, reflecting on completed essays has allowed me to analyze the development of my writing over the semester. Although this semester consisted of only five essays, it has become apparent to me that my writing has improved in many aspects throughout the semester. One general example of this improvement is the vocabulary, where simple vocabulary in the first essay had become more complex by the final essays. Additionally, I also believe that my writing has become more reflective of my actual voice and opinions, an improvement considering my first essays were best described as vague.

Peter was mostly introverted and very sarcasticas. Because of this he was very on edge sure he joked around, but most of the time he will get embarrass or annoyed by his mother or Anna. Think about being introverted as a snail. Snail’s are very slow creatures yet they are very interesting expasipicialy when they get frightened, they hide in their shell. It symbolism the protection of the shell acting like a safe haven, like Peter he’s always in his room it’s his safe haven. Like Snail they hide their true self by hiding in their shell. Peter rebsentine that, we only get to see the bad side to him and not the good side, but like snail they need to find a new shell and by that Peter needs to learn to grow up in a way. So he found a new way, he

The Giver is a morally driven and thought-provoking story about a young boy called Jonas who lives in a society free of crime, sadness, pain, death, music, color and love. The story follows Jonas as he receives the memories of the past, good and bad, from the current Receiver, who is called the Giver. The Giver transfers memories by placing his hands on Jonas 's forearms. The first memory he receives is of a thrilling sled ride, which he will remake in the end of the movie. Jonas discovers the dangerous truths of his community 's secret past. Armed with the power of knowledge, which he knew about from memories (Ways of Knowledge), Jonas realizes that he must release all the memories to the community to allow them to feel
