Love is a tricky thing. I, as I’m sure many of us, grew up with the notion that happiness was an outside job, that I was not actually in charge of my own happiness. For me, I learned, through some really terrible examples, that I needed to depend on others to feel happy, fulfilled, whole, and so romantic love became very sticky. It became a game of trying to figure out what I needed to say and do to try and get the other person to do what I thought I needed them to do in order for me to feel safe

Feet splash on the muddy ground through the worn fields of Bull Run. Endless land covered in the blood of the Union and Confederate soldiers. The faint smell of gunpowder still lingers in the air, and smoke covers the fields as if death himself is horrified of the battle he had watched. As the clouds start to part the whole scene becomes clear. A small clearing surrounded by trees and a hill littered with burnt carriages, blankets, dresses, and baskets. Cannons and broken down artillery

was created in 1849, depicting man as an objective observer of nature rather than a conqueror, to honor the death of the prolific landscape painter Thomas Cole. The landscape depicted is a rough rendition of Kaaterskills Falls, a nod to an area well-loved and explored through Cole’s paintings over his lifetime. The painting features two men; Cole and his friend William Cullen Bryant, a prominent poet of the time, stand atop a ledge at the left of the painting. They appear to be conversing while looking

Playing on the varsity volleyball team is an adrenaline rush like no other. To be able to play the sport you love with teammates that are like family, in front of a crowd of actual family members is the ultimate feeling. Playing is even better when you, a small town nobody, beat a ranked team in the first set. We had just beaten Humboldt 25-17 and I was on top of the world. We were playing like our lives depended on it and I couldn’t be more proud of the girls. The crowd was roaring like wild animals

Forecasting in the fashion industry is usually a complicated due to the fact that it’s characterized by high demand, short product life cycles and different varieties of product lines. Consequently, managing customer demand tends to be difficult, for organizations have to avoid large volumes of stock. In this industry, there’s intense competition and consumers are price conscious; accordingly, these factors have slowed the growth of this industry. As a result, this made it difficult for the companies

During the segregated times back in the south was very hard to deal with especially being a kid. You weren’t allowed to go anywhere you wanted too or do many things, especially if you were black. Everything was always divided into two main groups which were whites only and blacks only. Signs like these were hung up almost everywhere from water fountains to bathrooms and also from buses to schools. Fortunately the schools being segregated will eventually change because of Ruby Bridges. Ruby bridges

As coined by the Father of His Country, “It is far better to be alone, than to be in bad company.” This is doubly appropriate as love is nothing more than a series of traumatic and disappointing events. Certain authors utilize their works to portray love from their perspective and/or experience. In “Love Song, with Two Goldfish” by Grace Chua, the author illustrates rejection in the most heartbreaking way possible. In the poem “What Love Isn’t” by Yrsa Daley-Ward, she depicts love as unbearable and

My eyes shut peacefully every night to the sweet hum of my mother’s voice. I was genuinely blessed to have both my parents tuck me in at night when I was an infant. “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” by Israel Kamakawiwo’Ole was blissfully murmured into my ears until the age of four. Hope was something my mother always prayed for, and with this tune, she could sing for it too. My mother, having severe Crohn’s disease, struggled with everyday tasks along with taking care of me and my four other siblings

only on the packaging of messages but also on the interaction of these messages and the receiver’s own thought and feeling. We don’t “receive” meaning but we create meaning” (DeVito, 100). In the scene, Jack said “that is the child of bootstrap bill turner” in their discussion and Joshamee is the listener. After Joshamee listen to Jack’s words, he translated it to another meaning which is the hope and believes that he will be able to get the ship back from Captain Barbossa. He relates Jack’s word to

keen on the subject, far over the level of legitimacy, to the extent her dad and Norrington are concerned. Elizabeth is by all accounts weak and inactive among these men, however in actuality she sets the plot into movement by locating youthful Will Turner, lost adrift, and after that taking his emblem once he 's brought on board Norrington 's ship. It 's practically as if Elizabeth, with her enthusiasm for privateers, has summoned a young man privateer out of the fog by her own particular will. The
