When a dream dries up like a raisin in the sun, its time is gone. It means that the dream was left behind and pushed aside, to make way for the necessities that life has and not the luxuries. When the dream festers and run, it’s still there like a sore it will never heal and steeps into your subconscious. What it means is that while you tried to let life cover up the want for that dream it is still there and there are time when you will quietly think about it again because that desire is still there waiting yet covered up but life’s responsibilities When a dream crusts over like a sugary sweat, it a bittersweet memories that will be there it is the moment you look back and remember how you would dream like a daydream that was never achieved bittersweet because of how your soul still feels an attachment yet it’s like sweat that leaves you feeling anything but good.

His dream of becoming a baseball player is the raisin in the sun. His age and life choices made it impossible to act upon his dreams. Therefore, he settled down and tried to forget his dream.

These trends, however, do not account for the whole country because they differ from place to place. The case of Ciudad Juarez is particularly extreme and, sometimes, shocking. Ciudad Juarez is a city of 1.3 million people across from El Paso, Texas. Although Ciudad Juarez is incredibly rich in nature and culture, in the last couple of years, it has not been known because of these virtues; instead, it has been all over the news due to its homicide rates, which have had peak rates greater than many war zones. One particular aspect that characterizes the homicides of this city is the high level of “feminicidios” (femicides or feminicides in English) that have taken place in the last two decades. In fact, more than 300 women have been murdered

Have you served in a war? Has your father or mother served in a war? How about your grandpa? As we honor those who have served we typically do so by standing for the pledge of allegiance or star spangled banner. We say thank you to our war heroes or we go and visit them and listen to their stories. In this paper I will be discussing why NFL players should not be allowed to kneel for the flag. Although the NFL players have the right to peacefully protest, they should find a different way than kneeling as it shows disrespect towards the flag also active duty military and veterans, it teaches young children this behavior is okay, what they are protesting has nothing to do with the flag and there are many different ways to get their message out.
*C. Motivation*: What if the person waiting on the list needing an organ transplant was someone you loved?

It was October 6, 1998 when he was lured from the bar that cold, fateful night. His skull was smashed with a pistol butt as he was lashed to a fence, left for dead in near freezing temperatures. Nearly eighteen hours later he was found by passersby and taken to a hospital where we remained in a coma for several days until slowly slipping away. At his funeral, picketers carried signs saying, "God Hates Fags" and *Fags Deserve to Die."
Daniel khun, I love you. Paul McCain, I love you. frank Dalton, I love you. Mrs. Jodi meeker archer, I love you too. As a matter of fact class, I love everyone in here. Now some of you might be appalled by me saying this. Many of you may be flattered by it; and a number of you might even wonder. Is this guy crazy? Who does he think he is? How could he have the audacity to tell me he loves me? To you I say this, I’m just a normal guy with a big heart; a guy practicing the correct ideology to remedy this evil world. And right now, I’m trying to influence you to abide by the same system. A system that is so natural and so pure, but is often revered as a weakness or an enigma that should be avoided at all cost. As a matter of fact, I believe

“Good Country People” is a classic short story by contemporary American author Flanner O’Connor. Published in 1955, it a compilation of symbolism, imagery, characterization, irony, and allegory which created a Christian Humanism short story. The most famous yet clichéd Idiom “Pride goes before a fall;” adapted from the book of Proverbs in the Holy Bible, is exemplified both literally and figuratively in this short story. Its central message goes to show how the attitude one portrays can lead to their self-destruction.
In today’s society we tend to praise children by giving them plaques, trophies, and medals for anything; even just showing up. We are afraid that our children will be hurt because they lost. That thought makes us oblivious to the fact that we are sending a dangerous message to our children: Everyone's a winner. We are teaching our children that it is never okay to lose, so we make an excuse to make them a winner. Parents, coaches, and league directors should be against giving participation awards. Putting this false claim of “everyone's a winner” in their minds is only setting them up for failure and will never teach them the truth of the real world. Parents and league directors should stop allowing participation trophies because it creates unmotivated generations, makes kids feel that they are entitled to a reward, and does not give a true reality of what the real world is like outside of our adolescent years.
When our founding fathers founded this nation, they had a vision of democracy and freedom in their sights, but since then we have strayed from this path in many ways. I would like to focus on an institution which I have been part of for twelve years of my life: the American education system. The goals of the education system, I believe, are to prepare students to help contribute to our society in an efficient and positive way, and to allow them freedom in their future endeavors. However, I think that the U.S. education system hasn’t been achieving these goals. Students aren’t given a realistic image of the future, and their freedom of choice is being restricted. This does not mean that the U.S. education system isn’t producing any results at all, for the majority of the world’s best universities are located here in the States and thousands of international students come to study here annually. However, there is still much reform that is needed to make it better.
