Sula’s nonconventional identity begins to complicate the original theme by making it less about race and more about one’s beliefs. Throughout the story we never see Sula turn to race as her identity, even as others, like Nel, write her down as a woman of color.

this week that normally responds well to music. Therefore, I utilized music therapy to engage the patient. My field instructor told me the genera of music that he enjoyed, so deciding on that was easy. I played several well known Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder songs. The intervention was successfully for about 15 minutes, in which he was tapping his foot and singing along. After 15 minutes, the patient began to lose focus and fell asleep.

Stevie Wonder, whom was an American musician, once said, “Mama was a great teacher, a teacher of compassion, love, and fearlessness. If love is sweet as a flower, then my mother is that sweet flower of love.” This quote by Stevie Wonder helps us understand the fact that mothers try, in the best ways, to see you succeed by teaching from the mother’s perspective and the experiences she has been through to get you to see the world in a different way.

As we sat there, the three of us, with our eyes crawling over the hill to look down it once more, we got up. One by one. It was the first year my cousins and I had decided to go snowboarding

I am so late. He’s probably thinking that i’m bailing on him. I grab my shoes and purse and head for the door. As if things couldn’t get worse, they do. My door handle breaks. I knew I should’ve gotten it fixed last week though I didn’t think anything of it. I just so happen to have also left my phone at work. What a great day it’s been i moan with a sigh. Now, what do I do? I can’t leave my apartment, I can’t call anybody, and I can’t jump out of my window because i’m on the third story. This is
