I Cried

How did this happen I made sure it wouldn’t, couldn’t, can’t happen. This is great just fantastic. Now I’ve got to go back into hiding. Man my boss is going to kill me. Well I guess I have a choice, either a firing squad or a knife to the back. Really hope marice doesn’t find out. 24 hours prior “Hey, Hey!” “JACK, wake up!” “Huh, what, oh Marice sorry I… had a rough night,” I managed to mumble. Marice is my assistant, well kind of. I mean I would say girlfriend, but I hired her to help me run my

Although the rise of Christianity to dominate western religions may have been undeniable, there were key moments that helped secure this position for Christianity. The rise of the constantinian Dynasty was one of those key moments. During the 4th century, Constantine rose to emperor in the west after the death of his father. Never the less, constantinian and his brother in law Maxentius who was also his co-emperor in the west were rivals. There was a lot of hostility between them and a war broke

I walked towards the computer class, and stopped for a second to look at the sign that read COMPUTERS. I turned the knob waiting to be greeted by the awkward stares of the students and teachers; I guess being the new kid has its perks. 9th grade was my first year here in the United States and as an English learner, I had to face many obstacles from both students and the teachers. It was hard for me to understand what the teacher was teaching and what was going on around the school. I throw a small

As the Roman Empire was closing out the end of the third century they were faced with both internal and external concerns (Irvin, History of the World Christian Movement, 160). Some of the contributing factors to the rise of Constantine begun with the wars with the Persians that they were facing, in addition to managing the northern Germanic tribes which contained many of the Roman military resources (Irvin, History of the World Christian Movement, 160). As the Roman Empire began working with some

Christ and the apostle Paul. Some may question my placement of Paul in that last statement but it was with a purpose. It was Paul and a very few others who took the original teaching of Jesus to the world outside of Judea, it is because of this that I believe Paul very much deserves to be noted in the beginnings of any discussion about Christian practices.

humiliation. All due to the weakness for his boyfriend. “I will eat well.” Lay announced and KyungSoo repeated after him. They took their time eating, taking modest bites in-between the ongoing conversation about KyungSoo and his desire to became a chef someday. Lay was really keen on that idea. Considering his best dish was plain rice, having a personal chef would be advantageous, particulary when the chef is exceptionaly handsome and skilled. “Can I be the first ever customer to taste you food?” Lay's

time of Autumn. I was outside, pressuring strikes with my sword, practicing Kendo. Kendo is swordsmanship. Soon, I became tired and was drenched in sweat. I decided to head inside my house, it was covered with the orange sunset light. As I entered, I took off my dusty equipment, and I saw I had a message. I picked up the phone and read it. The message said, “Your appointment to see your friend at the hospital is at 7:30 PM.” I took a peek at my watch, it was 7:15 PM. I panicked, I didn’t know what

Although Durer himself evidently did not think of the three as a set, He sometimes sold or gave St. Jerome and Melencolia I as a pair. In the engraving, Knight, Death, and Devil, it appears that the hero (the Knight)

The Rule of Constantine The emperor Constantine has been called the most important emperor of the late antiquity. The many great events of his reign laid foundations that would affect the future of Europe and Western Civilization for centuries to come. His recognition and support of Christianity was one of the most important moments in world history. Moving the government of the Roman Empire to Constantinople and founding “New Rome” was one of the most significant decisions ever made by a Roman
