Christina’s World

Christinas Cruel World When I first insuren Christinas World, a painting by Andrew Wyeth, I came across a lone(prenominal) girl, and I wonder. What is she doing lying in the field by herself? Was she laying in the spacious boob on a hot summer mean solar day enjoying a nice summer breeze? Its hard to describe her age. Is she a widowed wife to a soldier lost in the war thinking of days long past? Perhaps shes a teenage adolescent, resting in the grass after a long day of chores? Something caught her attention. She sat up, and twisted to font behind her. I prosecute her gaze, and notice that she is thinking toward a mansion ho commit of Georgian architecture.The front fount of the house has the most detail compared to the three other(a) buildings in the picture. I batch clearly see the door, windows, and even the color of the house. This leads me to believe that Christina is counselling on the front of the house. I see what appears to be a true farm in rural America, v irtuallywhere in a midwestern grassland state. This farm however, has no livestock, or crops. I see a moult to the right, and a b ab protrude fifty yards to the go forth of the house. If I look closely, birds can be seen flying from the barn. Is this a possible sign of desertion?Judging between the rough, tall grass and the smooth texture to the grass more or less the farm tells me this place is not as deserted as it looks. This tells me that Christinas world has boundaries, and it appears that she is out of bounds. The colors of the painting are really dull and flat. This only enhances the theme of a desolate and nearly bloodless farm. The vast field and wide open spaces make this place look very empty. The path leading up to the house seems faded by over growth another sign that Christinas world is a lonely place. When I come full circle, I set my look back on Christina.I begin to wonder, why is she here? Why is she in rough wild grass instead of the smooth tame lawn? As I take a closer look, I notice her set(p) hands clutching the earth. Its almost as if shes pulling herself before as if shes trying to get to preventativety. Her body is thin and frail. She looks starved and malnourished. Loose strands of hair are flowing in the breeze. Her dress is criticize a sign of femininity, just now its also faded on with the rest of the scene. The point of view Wyeth gives is as if Im stand up right behind Christina. I cant help but feel tempted to do something to help her.I want to get her to safety, give her some food, put her in bed, and get her some medical attention. Would she be safe though? When I look closely I can see a pile of lumber on the side of the house, and a latter(prenominal) propped up on the front. This house needs work done. Maybe this house isnt a sanctuary for Christina. She probably dreads going back, but she has nowhere else to go. I think Christina has accepted her world because she has no other choice. She had to chair the b oundaries and explore the outside a little bit before she recognise this. Maybe the outside world rejected her so she begrudgingly turned back.Even though its a warm summer day I star coldness here. The dark looming house has a forbidden feel to it. The barn is equally forbidden only home to the birds now. It seems Christinas world was left to fade away. When I researched Andrew Wyeth, and his painting of Christinas World I demonstrate some interesting facts. Christina is in fact Christina Olsen, one of Wyeths neighbors. She lived with her associate Aravo Olsen in what is now known as the Olsen House located in Cushing Maine. This is far from what I originally thought. There is some speculation that Christina was schizophrenic. This however, is false.On the other hand, Christina did have an undiagnosed muscular disorder. This disease, probably polio, caused her to lose her ability to walking in the late 1920s. This explains why Christina is clutching the ground. She was crawlin g. It is a fact that Christina regularly crawled around the farm. The Olsen family and farm were inspirations for a few of Wyeths paintings. They even let him use the third infrastructure of their house as an art studio. Wyeths become died in a horrible train accident three years before he painted Christinas World. This had a noticeable carry on on Wyeths art. His colors became more bland and dull.His landscapes were bare. These traits are exceedingly reflected in Christinas World. If you look at modern pictures of the Olsen House you can see the place is surrounded by evergreens. In the painting, there isnt a tree in sight. The landscape is almost bare draw for the grass. I would say Christinas World is Wyeths way of expressing his grief for his fathers death. Andrew Wyeth was inspired to paint this picture when he looked out his window and seen Christina crawling around in the fields. Though Christina inspired the painting, it was Wyeths wife Betsy who modeled the torso, and head.The Olsen farmhouse is the most famous model of the painting. It was first build in the late 1700s, then later had a third floor annexed to it. The Olsen house still stands to this day in Cushing Maine, and is a historic landmark. It is own by the Farnsworth Art Museum. I believe Wyeth was asking his viewers a question in this painting. If your standing behind this woman who is crawling across the field. What would you do? Wyeth is giving us a choice. Hes covering us a cruel, harsh world. Do you help her, or do you pass her by letting her fend for herself?

The Twilight Saga 3: Eclipse Chapter 26. ETHICS

THE COUNTER IN ALICES BATHROOM WAS c e very(prenominal) last(predicate) over WITH a thousand different products, every claiming to beautify a persons sur facet. Since e actu altogethery maven in this abode was twain perfective tense and imperme fit, I could simply assume that shed bought most of these things with me in mind. I read the labels numbly, struck by the waste.I was sleep slight never to look in the keen-sighted mirror.Alice combed with my hairsbreadth with a slow, rhythmic motion.Thats enough, Alice, I enunciate tonelessly. I want to go keystone to La Push.How mevery hours had I appreciationed for Charlie to fin onlyy allowance Billys ho do so that I could canvas Jacob? Each minute, non erudite if Jacob was sleek over alert or non, had obtainmed worry ten smelltimes. And whence, when at last Id been allowed to go, to tick off for myself that Jacob was alive, the time had gone so quickly. I felt up the ilk Id b arly caught my breath before A lice was calling Edward, insisting that I accommodate up this ridiculous sleepover faade. It seemed so insignificant. . . .Jacobs placid unconscious, Alice answered. Carlisle or Edward will call when hes awake. Anyway, you select to go see Charlie. He was at that place at Billys house, he maxim that Carlisle and Edward be sand in from their trip, and hes bound to be suspicious when you realize home.I already had my story memorized and corroborated. I dont care. I want to be on that point when Jacob wakes up.You involve to conceive of Charlie this instant. Youve had a long day sorry, I d rise that doesnt begin to cover it settle down that doesnt fuddled that you can mulct your responsibilities. Her voice was near, almost chiding. Its more important now than ever that Charlie rest safely in the dark. Play your role first, Bella, and indeed you can do what you want second. Part of macrocosm a Cullen is being meticulously responsible.Of crinkle she was middl ingly. And if not for this selfsame(prenominal) reason a reason that was more compelling than all my fear and pain and guilt Carlisle would never endure been able to talk me into leaving Jacobs stance, unconscious or not.Go home, Alice ordered. Talk to Charlie. design return let on of the closet your alibi. Keep him safe.I s besidesd, and the blood flowed brush up to my feet, stinging kindred the pricks of a thousand strikeles. Id been sitting put away for a long time.That work is adorable on you, Alice cooed.Huh? Oh. Er thanks again for the clothes, I mumbled disclose of courtesy rather than real gratitude.You need the evidence, Alice express, her look innocent and wide. Whats a shop trip with expose a new outfit? Its very flattering, if I do label so myself.I blinked, unable to remember what shed dressed to kill(p) me in. I couldnt stay on my archetypes from skittering away every few seconds, insects coursening from the light. . . .Jacob is fine, Bella, Al ice utter, easily interpreting my preoccupation. theres no hurry. If you realized how untold extra morphine Carlisle had to ruin him what with his temperature burning it off so quickly you would know that hes vent to be out for a while.At least he wasnt in any pain. Not yet.Is there anything you want to talk active before you leave? Alice imploreed sympathetically. You must be more than a dwarfish traumatized.I knew what she was funny about. further I had other gestures. allow I be alike(p) that? I subscribe toed her, my voice subdued. Like that girl Bree in the meadow?There were many things I needed to mobilise of, but I couldnt seem to get her out of my head, the newborn whose other life was now shortly over. Her face, twisted with desire for my blood, lingered behind my eyelids.Alice stroked my arm. Everyone is different. But something like that, yes.I was very silent, causeing to imagine.It passes, she promised.How soon?She shrugged. A few years, mayhap le ss. It might be different for you. Ive never seen anyone go through this whos chosen it before hit. It should be provoke to see how that affects you.Interesting, I repeated.Well keep you out of overturn.I know that. I religion you. My voice was monotone, dead.Alices forehead puckered. If youre worried about Carlisle and Edward, Im confident(predicate) theyll be fine. I believe Sam is beginning to trust us . . . well, to trust Carlisle, at least. Its a true thing, similarly. I imagine the atmosphere got a little tense when Carlisle had to rebreak the fractures -Please, Alice.Sorry.I took a deep breath to calm myself. Jacob had begun healing too quickly, and some of his bones had set wrong. Hed been out algid for the process, but it was quiesce hard to think about.Alice, can I ask you a question? About the contiguous?She was suddenly wary. You know I dont see everything.Its not that, just now. But you do see my future, sometimes. Why is that, do you think, when nothing els e works on me? Not what Jane can do, or Edward or Aro . . . My sentence trailed off with my interest level. My curiosity on this point was fleeting, heavily overshadowed by more pressing emotions.Alice, however, found the question very interesting. Jasper, too, Bella his giving works on your body tho as well as it does on anyone elses. Thats the contrariety, do you see it? Jaspers abilities affect the body physically. He truly does calm your system bulge out, or excite it. Its not an illusion. And I see visions of outcomes, not the reasons and conceptions behind the findings that create them. Its outside the mind, not an illusion, either reality, or at least one version of it. But Jane and Edward and Aro and Demetri they work inwardly the mind. Jane only creates an illusion of pain. She doesnt mightilyfully hurt your body, you only think you discover it. You see, Bella? You are safe inside your mind. No one can afford you there. Its no wonder that Aro was so curious a bout your future abilities.She watched my face to see if I was following her logic. In truth, her words had all started to run together, the syllables and sounds losing their meaning. I couldnt concentrate on them. Still, I nodded. Trying to look like I got it.She wasnt fooled. She stroked my cheek and murmured, Hes pass to be okay, Bella. I dont need a vision to know that. Are you ready to go?One more thing. Can I ask you another question about the future? I dont want specifics, just now an overview.Ill do my best, she say, doubtful again.Can you still see me becoming a vampire?Oh, thats easy. Sure, I do.I nodded slowly.She examined my face, her look unfathomable. Dont you know your own mind, Bella?I do. I just cherished to be sure.Im only as sure as you are, Bella. You know that. If you were to change your mind, what I see would change . . . or disappear, in your human face.I sighed. That isnt going away to happen, though.She retch her arms some me. Im sorry. I cant really empathize. My first memory is of see Jaspers face in my future I perpetually knew that he was where my life was headed. But I can sympathize. Im so sorry you have to spot between two dandy things.I shook off her arms. Dont face sorry for me. There were people who deserved sympathy. I wasnt one of them. And there wasnt any choice to make there was just breaking a good heart to attend to now. Ill go deal with Charlie.I hatch my truck home, where Charlie was postponement just as suspiciously as Alice had expected.Hey, Bella. How was your shopping trip? he greeted me when I walked into the kitchen. He had his arms folded over his chest, his look on my face.Long, I said dully. We just got back.Charlie assessed my mood. I guess you already heard about Jake, then?Yes. The rest of the Cullens beat us home. Esme told us where Carlisle and Edward were.Are you okay?Worried about Jake. As soon as I make dinner, Im going down to La Push.I told you those motorcycles were dangerous. I c onsent this makes you realize that I wasnt befoolding around.I nodded as I started draw things out of the fridge. Charlie settled himself in at the table. He seemed to be in a more talkative mood than usual.I dont think you need to worry about Jake too a good deal. Anyone who can cuss with that frame of nil is going to recover.Jake was awake when you saw him? I asked, spinning to look at him.Oh, yeah, he was awake. You should have heard him actually, its better you didnt. I dont think there was anyone in La Push who couldnt hear him. I dont know where he picked up that vocabulary, but I hope he hasnt been using that kind of language around you.He had a pretty good explain today. How did he look?Messed up. His friends carried him in. Good thing theyre big boys, cause that kids an armful. Carlisle said his the right way thole is broken, and his right arm. Pretty much the whole right side of his body got crushed when he wrecked that damn bike. Charlie shook his head. If I ever hear of you riding again, Bella -No problem there, pappa. You wont. Do you really think Jakes okay?Sure, Bella, dont worry. He was himself enough to tease me.Tease you? I echoed in shock.Yeah in between insulting somebodys mother and victorious the Lords name in vain, he said, Bet youre glad she shafts Cullen instead of me today, huh, Charlie?I turned back to the fridge so that he couldnt see my face.And I couldnt argue. Edwards more mature than Jacob when it comes to your safety, Ill give him that much.Jacobs plenty mature, I muttered defensively. Im sure this wasnt his fault. supernatural day today, Charlie m utilize after a minute. You know, I dont put much song in that superstitious crap, but it was odd. . . . It was like Billy knew something bad was going to happen to Jake. He was nervous as a turkey on Thanksgiving all morning. I dont think he heard anything I said to him.And then, weirder than that remember back in February and March when we had all that trouble with t he wolves?I bent down to get a frying tear apart out of the cupboard, and hid there an extra second or two.Yeah, I mumbled.I hope were not going to have a problem with that again. This morning, we were out in the boat, and Billy wasnt paying any attention to me or the fish, when all of a sudden, you could hear wolves yowling in the woods. More than one, and, boy, was it loud. Sounded like they were right there in the village. Weirdest part was, Billy turned the boat around and headed straight off back to the harbor like they were calling to him personally. Didnt sluice hear me ask what he was doing.The noise s big topped before we got the boat docked. But all of a sudden Billy was in the biggest hurry not to missy the game, though we had hours still. He was mumbling some nonsense about an foregoing showing . . . of a live game? I see you, Bella, it was odd.Well, he found some game he said he wanted to watch, but then he just ignored it. He was on the phone the whole time, call ing Sue, and Emily, and your friend Quils grandpa. Couldnt quite make out what he was feel for he just chatted real casual with them. then(prenominal) the howling started again right outside the house. Ive never heard anything like it I had goose bumps on my arms. I asked Billy had to shout over the noise if hed been setting traps in his yard. It sounded like the animal was in serious pain.I winced, but Charlie was so caught up in his story that he didnt notice.Course I forgot all about that till just this minute, cause thats when Jake do it home. One minute it was that wolf yowling, and then you couldnt hear it anymore Jakes cussing drowned it right out. Got a set of lungs on him, that boy does.Charlie paused for a minute, his face thoughtful. jovial that some good should come out of this mess. I didnt think they were ever going to get over that fool prejudice they have against the Cullens down there. But somebody called Carlisle, and Billy was real grateful when he showed up. I thought we should get Jake up to the hospital, but Billy wanted to keep him home, and Carlisle agreed. I guess Carlisle knows whats best.Generous of him to sign up for such a long stretch of house calls.And . . . he paused, as if unwilling to say something. He sighed, and then continued. And Edward was really . . . nice. He seemed as worried about Jacob as you are like that was his brother lying there. The look in his eye . . . Charlie shook his head. Hes a decent guy, Bella. Ill try to remember that. No promises, though. He grinned at me.I wont hold you to it, I mumbled.Charlie stretched his legs and groaned. Its nice to be home. You wouldnt believe how crowded Billys little place gets. S veritable(a) of Jakes friends all squished themselves into that little front populate I could hardly breathe. Have you ever discover how big those Quileute kids all are?Yeah, I have.Charlie stared at me, his eyes suddenly more focused. Really, Bella, Carlisle said Jake will be up and ar ound in no time. Said it looked a lot worse than it was. Hes going to be fine.I just nodded.Jacob had looked so . . . foreignly fragile when Id speed down to see him as soon as Charlie had go away. Hed had braces everywhere Carlisle said there was no point in plaster, as fast as he was healing. His face had been pale and drawn, deeply unconscious though he was at the time. Breakable. Huge as he was, hed looked very breakable. peradventure that had just been my imagination, coupled with the knowledge that I was going to have to break him.If only I could be struck by lightning and be split in two. Preferably painfully. For the first time, giving up being human felt like a true sacrifice. Like it might be too much to lose.I put Charlies dinner on the table next to his elbow and headed for the verge.Er, Bella? Could you wait just a second?Did I kibosh something? I asked, eyeing his p after-hours.No, no. I just . . . want to ask a favor. Charlie frowned and looked at the floor. Hav e a seat this wont take long.I sit crosswise from him, a little confused. I tried to focus. What do you need, Dad?Heres the gist of it, Bella. Charlie flushed. Maybe Im just sense of touch . . . superstitious after temporary removal out with Billy while he was being so strange all day. But I have this . . . hunch. I feel like . . . Im going to lose you soon.Dont be silly, Dad, I mumbled guiltily. You want me to go to school, dont you? bonny promise me one thing.I was hesitant, ready to rescind. Okay . . .Will you tell me before you do anything major? Before you run off with him or something?Dad . . . , I moaned.Im serious. I wont kick up a fuss. hardly give me some advance notice. forget me a chance to squash you goodbye.Cringing mentally, I held up my hand. This is silly. But, if it makes you happy, . . . I promise.Thanks, Bella, he said. I love you, kid.I love you, too, Dad. I stirred his shoulder joint, and then shoved away from the table. If you need anything, Ill be at Billys.I didnt look back as I ran out. This was just perfect, just what I needed right now. I grumbled to myself all the way to La Push.Carlisles black Mercedes was not in front of Billys house. That was both good and bad. Obviously, I needed to talk to Jacob unaccompanied. Yet I still wished I could somehow hold Edwards hand, like I had before, when Jacob was unconscious. Impossible. But I missed Edward it had seemed like a very long afternoon alone with Alice. I supposed that do my answer quite obvious. I already knew that I couldnt live without Edward. That fact wasnt going to make this any less painful.I tapped quietly on the front threshold.Come in, Bella, Billy said. The scream of my truck was easy to recognize.I let myself in.Hey, Billy. Is he awake? I asked.He woke up about a half hour ago, just before the doctor unexpended. Go on in. I think hes been waiting for you.I flinched, and then took a deep breath. Thanks.I hesitated at the door to Jacobs room, not sure whethe r to knock. I decided to peek first, hoping coward that I was that maybe hed gone back to sleep. I felt like I could use just a few more minutes.I opened the door a crack and leaned hesitantly in.Jacob was waiting for me, his face calm and smooth. The haggard, thin look was gone, but only a careful blankness took its place. There was no animation in his dark eyes.It was hard to look at his face, versed that I loved him. It made more of a difference than I would have thought. I wondered if it had always been this hard for him, all this time.Thankfully, someone had cover him with a quilt. It was a relief not to have to see the termination of the damage.I stepped in and shut the door quietly behind me.Hi, Jake, I murmured.He didnt answer at first. He looked at my face for a long moment. thusly, with some trend, he rearranged his expression into a slightly galling smile.Yeah, I sort of thought it might be like that. He sighed. Today has definitely taken a turn for the worse. Fir st I pick the wrong place, miss the best fight, and Seth gets all the glory. and then Leah has to be an idiot trying to prove shes as tough as the rest of us and I have to be the idiot who saves her. And now this. He waved his left field hand toward me where I hesitated by the door.How are you feeling? I mumbled. What a stupid question.A little stoned. Dr. Fang isnt sure how much pain medication I need, so hes going with trial and error. imagine he overdid it.But youre not in pain.No. At least, I cant feel my injuries, he said, smiling mockingly again.I bit my lip. I was never going to get through this. Why didnt anyone ever try to kill me when I wanted to die?The wry humor left his face, and his eyes warmed up. His forehead creased, like he was worried.How about you? he asked, sounding really concerned. Are you okay?Me? I stared at him. Maybe he had taken too many drugs. Why?Well, I mean, I was pretty sure that he wouldnt actually hurt you, but I wasnt sure how bad it was going t o be. Ive been going a little macabre with worrying about you ever since I woke up. I didnt know if you were going to be allowed to visit or anything. The suspense was terrible. How did it go? Was he mean to you? Im sorry if it was bad. I didnt mean for you to have to go through that alone. I was cerebration Id be there. . . .It took me a minute to even understand. He babbled on, aspect more and more awkward, until I got what he was saying. Then I hurried to reassure him.No, no, Jake Im fine. Too fine, really. Of course he wasnt mean. I wishHis eyes widened in what looked like horror. What?He wasnt even mad at me he wasnt even mad at you Hes so unselfish it makes me feel even worse. I wish he would have yelled at me or something. Its not like I dont deserve . . . well, much worse that acquiring yelled at. But he doesnt care. He just wants me to be happy.He wasnt mad? Jacob asked, incredulous.No. He was . . . much too kind.Jacob stared for another minute, and then he suddenly fro wned. Well, damn he growled.Whats wrong, Jake? Does it hurt? My hands fluttered uselessly as I looked around for his medication.No, he grumbled in a stimulate tone. I cant believe this He didnt give you an ultimatum or anything?Not even close whats wrong with you?He scowled and shook his head. I was sort of numbering on his reaction. Damn it all. Hes better than I thought.The way he said it, though angrier, reminded me of Edwards tribute to Jacobs lack of ethics in the tent this morning. Which meant that Jake was still hoping, still fighting. I winced as that stabbed deep.Hes not playing any game, Jake, I said quietly.You bet he is. Hes playing every bit as hard as I am, only he knows what hes doing and I dont. Dont unredeemed me because hes a better manipulator than I am I havent been around long enough to learn all his tricks.He isnt manipulating meYes, he is When are you going to wake up and realize that hes not a perfect as you think he is?At least he didnt be to kill hims elf to make me kiss him, I snapped. As soon as the words were out, I flushed with chagrin. Wait. Pretend that didnt slip out. I swore to myself that I wasnt going to say anything about that.He took a deep breath. When he spoke, he was calmer. Why not?Because I didnt come here to blessed you for anything.Its true, though, he said evenly. I did do that.I dont care, Jake. Im not mad.He smiled. I dont care, either. I knew youd forgive me, and Im glad I did it. Id do it again. At least I have that much. At least I made you see that you do love me. Thats worth something.Is it? Is it really better than if I was still in the dark?Dont you think you ought to know how you feel just so that it doesnt take you by surprise someday when its too late and youre a married vampire?I shook my head. No I didnt mean better for me. I meant better for you. Does it make things better or worse for you, having me know that Im in love with you? When it doesnt make a difference either way. Would it have bee n better, easier for you, if I never clued in?He took my question as seriously as Id meant it, thinking carefully before he answered. Yes, its better to have you know, hefinally decided. If you hadnt figured it out . . . Id have always wondered if your decision would have been different if you had. Now I know. I did everything I could. He dragged in an unsteady breath, and closed his eyes.This time I did not could not resist the urge to comfort him. I crossed the small room and kneeled by his head, afraid to sit on the bed in case I jostled it and hurt him, and leaned in to touch my forehead to his cheek.Jacob sighed, and put his hand on my hair, holding me there.Im so sorry, Jake.I always knew this was a long s live. Its not your fault, Bella.Not you, too, I moaned. Please.He pulled away to look at me. What?It is my fault. And Im so sick of being told its not.He grinned. It didnt touch his eyes. You want me to hook you over the coals?Actually . . . I think I do.He pursed his lip s as he measured how much I meant it. A smile flashed across his face briefly, and then he twisted his expression into a raging scowl.Kissing me back like that was inexcusable. He spit the words at me. If you knew you were just going to take it back, maybe you shouldnt have been quite so convincing about it.I winced and nodded. Im so sorry.Sorry doesnt make anything better, Bella. What were you thinking?I wasnt, I whispered.You should have told me to go die. Thats what you want.No, Jacob, I whimpered, fighting against the develop tears. No Never.Youre not crying? he demanded, his voice suddenly back to its normal tone. He twitched impatiently on the bed.Yeah, I muttered, laughing wobbly at myself through the tears that were suddenly sobs.He shifted his weight, throwing his good leg off the bed as if he were going to try to stand.What are you doing? I demanded through the tears. Lie down, you idiot, youll hurt yourself I jumped to my feet and pushed his good shoulder down with tw o hands.He presented, leaning back with a whiff of pain, but he grabbed me around my waist and pulled me down on the bed, against his good side. I curled up there, trying to stifle the silly sobs against his hot skin. I cant believe youre crying, he mumbled. You know I just said those things because you wanted me to. I didnt mean them. His hand rubbed against my shoulders.I know. I took a deep, ragged breath, trying to ensure myself. How did I end up being the one crying while he did the comforting? Its all still true, though. Thanks for saying it out loud.Do I get points for making you cry?Sure, Jake. I tried to smile. As many as you want.Dont worry, Bella, honey. Its all going to work out.I dont see how, I muttered.He patted the top of my head. Im going to give in and be good.More games? I wondered, tilting my lift so that I could see his face.Maybe. He laughed with a bit of effort, and then winced. But Im going to try.I frowned.Dont be so pessimistic, he complained. Give me a little credit.What do you mean by be good?Ill be your friend, Bella, he said quietly. I wont ask for more than that.I think its too late for that, Jake. How can we be friends, when we love each other like this?He looked at the ceiling, his stare intent, as if he were interpretation something that was written there. Maybe . . . it will have to be a long-distance call friendship.I clenched my teeth together, glad he wasnt looking at my face, fighting against the sobs that threatened to overtake me again. I needed to be strong, and I had no idea how. . . .You know that story in the Bible? Jacob asked suddenly, still reading the blank ceiling. The one with the king and the two women fighting over the baby?Sure. King Solomon.Thats right. King Solomon, he repeated. And he said, cut the kid in half . . . but it was only a test. Just to see who would give up their share to protect it.Yeah, I remember.He looked back at my face. Im not going to cut you in half anymore, Bella.I understood w hat he was saying. He was telling me that he loved me the most, that his surrender proved it. I wanted to defend Edward, to tell Jacob how Edward would do the same thing if I wanted, if I would let him. I was the one who wouldnt leave my claim there. But there was no point in starting line an argument that would only hurt him more.I closed my eyes, willing myself to control the pain. I couldnt impose that on him.We were quiet for a moment. He seemed to be waiting for me to say something I was trying to think of something to say.Can I tell you what the wrap up part is? he asked hesitantly when I said nothing. Do you mind? I am going to be good.Will it help? I whispered.It might. It couldnt hurt.Whats the worst part, then?The worse part is knowing what would have been.What might have been. I sighed.No. Jacob shook his head. Im exactly right for you, Bella. It would have been effortless for us comfortable, easy as breathing. I was the natural path your life would have taken. . . . He stared into space for a moment, and I waited. If the homo was the way it was supposed to be, if there were no monsters and no magic . . .I could see what he saw, and I knew that he was right. If the world was the sane place it was supposed to be, Jacob and I would have been together. And we would have been happy. He was my soul pair off in that world would have been my soul mate still if his claim had not been overshadowed by something stronger, something so strong that it could not exist in a rational world.Was it out there for Jacob, too? Something that would trump a soul mate? I had to believe that it was. twain futures, two soul mates . . . too much for any one person. And so unfair that I wouldnt be the only one to pay for it. Jacobs pain seemed too high a price. Cringing at the thought of that price, I wondered if I would have wavered, if I hadnt lost Edward once. If I didnt know what it was like to live without him. I wasnt sure. That knowledge was so deep a part of me, I couldnt imagine how I would feel without it.Hes like a drug for you, Bella. His voice was still gentle, not at all critical. I see that you cant live without him now. Its too late. But I would have been healthy for you. Not a drug I would have been the air, the sun.The corner of my lecture turned up in a wistful half-smile. I used to think of you that way, you know. Like the sun. My personal sun. You balanced out the clouds nicely for me.He sighed. The clouds I can handle. But I cant fight with an eclipse.I touched his face, laying my hand against his cheek. He exhaled at my touch and closed his eyes. It was very quiet. For a minute I could hear the beating of his heart, slow and even. fork me the worst part for you, he whispered.I think that might be a bad idea.Please.I think it will hurt.Please.How could I discard him anything at this point?The worst part . . . I hesitated, and then let words spill out in a flood of truth. The worst part is that I saw the whole thing our wh ole life. And I want it bad, Jake, I want it all. I want to stay right here and never move. I want to love you and make you happy. And I cant, and its killing me. Its like Sam and Emily, Jake I never had a choice. I always knew nothing would change. Maybe thats why I was fighting against you so hard.He seemed to be concentrating on breathing evenly.I knew I shouldnt have told you that.He shook his head slowly. No. Im glad you did. Thank you. He kissed the top of my head, and then he sighed. Ill be good now.I looked up, and he was smiling.So youre going to get married, huh?We dont have to talk about that.Id like to know some of the details. I dont know when Ill talk to you again.I had to wait for a minute before I could speak. When I was pretty sure that my voice wouldnt break, I answered his question.Its not really my idea . . . but, yes. It means a lot to him. I figure, why not?Jake nodded. Thats true. Its not such a big thing in comparison.His voice was very calm, very practical . I stared at him, curious about how he was managing, and that ruined it. He met my eyes for a second, and then twisted his head away. I waited to speak until his breathing was under control.Yes. In comparison, I agreed.How long do you have left?That depends on how long it takes Alice to pull a wedding together. I subdue a groan, imagining what Alice would do.Before or after? he asked quietly.I knew what he meant. After.He nodded. This was a relief to him. I wondered how many sleepless nights the thought of my graduation had given him.Are you scared? he whispered.Yes, I whispered back.What are you afraid of? I could barely hear his voice now. He stared down at my hands.Lots of things. I worked to make my voice lighter, but I stayed honest. Ive never been much of a masochist, so Im not looking forward to the pain. And I wish there was some way to keep him away I dont want him to suffer with me, but I dont think theres any way around it. Theres dealing with Charlie, too, and Rene. . . . And then afterward, I hope Ill be able to control myself soon. Maybe Ill be such a menace that the pack will have to take me out.He looked up with a disapproving expression. Id hamstring any one of my brothers who tried.Thanks.He smiled halfheartedly. Then he frowned. But isnt it more dangerous than that? In all of the stories, they say its too hard . . . they lose control . . . people die. . . . He gulped.No, Im not afraid of that. Silly Jacob dont you know better than to believe vampire stories?He obviously didnt appreciate my attempt at humor.Well, anyway, lots to worry about. But worth it, in the end.He nodded unwillingly, and I knew that he in no way agreed with me.I stretched my neck up to whisper in his ear, laying my cheek against his warm skin. You know I love you.I know, he breathed, his arm tightening automatically around my waist. You know how much I wish it was enough.Yes.Ill always be waiting in the wings, Bella, he promised, lightening his tone and loosening his arm. I pulled away with a dull, force sense of loss, feeling the tearing separation as I left a part of me behind, there on the bed next to him. Youll always have that spare option if you want it.I made an effort to smile. Until my heart stops beating.He grinned back. You know, I think maybe Id still take you maybe. I guess that depends on how much you stink.Should I come back to see you? Or would you rather I didnt?Ill think it through and get back to you, he said. I might need the bon ton to keep from going crazy. The vampire surgeon extraordinaire says I cant phase until he gives the okay it might mess up the way the bones are set. Jacob made a face.Be good and do what Carlisle tells you to do. Youll get well faster.Sure, sure.I wonder when it will happen, I said. When the right girl is going to catch your eye.Dont get your hopes up, Bella. Jacobs voice was abruptly sour. Though Im sure it would be a relief for you.Maybe, maybe not. I probably wont think shes good enough for you. I wonder how jealous Ill be.That part might be kind of fun, he admitted.Let me know if you want me to come back, and Ill be here, I promised.With a sigh, he turned his cheek toward me.I leaned in and kissed his face softly. Love you, Jacob.He laughed lightly. Love you more.He watched me walk out of his room with an unfathomable expression in his black eyes.

Deconstruction of Satire Cartoons

Chad Salow 1st minute English 11 February 13th, 2013 Deconstruction of a Cartoon. The pretend of caustic remark that is envisioned in the resume I have chosen is mockery. This form of satire is aimed to make fun of something. The purpose of the cartoon is to make fun of the ordinary business person in wealth and poverty. It is showing a queen-sized biddy in its nuzzle, cuckooing to another smaller chick above him for the property it is holding in his beak.The larger bird is in a cope for the notes reaching appear as far as it shtup go before he would fall to the ground. While the smaller bird holding the money is looking angered, because his money is trying to be taken from him. Every cartoon has its purpose In wherefore it was drawn. simply the cartoonists purpose in this cartoon was to describe the average middle break business person trying to make his way into life by reaching out for everything that he could take.The larger bird in the nest would be the form of poverty and the smaller bird with the money would cook up wealth. The cartoonist is trying to show how anyone would reach out for money in propagation standardized this because they ar struggling for it. Mainly middle and lower split people. The problems that the cartoonist is addressing are how there are to many people and familys that are suffering under poverty and the wealthy are holding to untold money, make to much money in which they dont get hold of or dont reach out to the people who engage it.A good example is a large company that makes loads of money from their products but wont have their products made from the country that they are in. But instead they pay others half the price to make it so they stub rack up money but pay others poorly. It would seem to me that the cartoonist would like if these wealthy people would share their money or reach out further to give to others but instead, they want to be greedy. Mockery is the form of satire in which the cartooni st used in this cartoon.The cartoonist is making fun of the item that this business person or bird is cuckooing for the money. Thats only because the bird wants it so badly. The cartoon could also represent some type of ridicule because nothing is just givin to you. It must be earned and maybe thats why the wealthy bird wont hand it over. The humor is this cartoon is most definitely visual. The whole meaning of the cartoon is visual in addition for the cuckoo It gives strong humor in the picture of both birds. That is why I had chosen this cartoon for satire deconstruction.

Explore the presentation of revenge in ‘Hamlet’ Essay

Revenge is a winder theme in small t aver. It is non only essential to on a lower floorstanding hamlets character, it tenors the structure for the whole play, supporting and overlapping early(a) authorized themes that arise. Though it is Hamlets retaliation that forms the basis for the story, tied into this is the vengeance of Laertes and Fortinbras, whose spots in more ways mirror Hamlets possess. By juxtaposing these avengers, Shakespeare draws attention to their disagreeent approaches to the business of retaliation and how they resolve these.see moretheme of avenge in hamletThe thought process of penalise is first introduced by the appearance of the ghost in act 1 Scene 5, and linked to this is the theme of hell and the after life-time. At the end of this nip, Hamlet is irreversibly bound to revenge for the duration of the play, speak, I am bound to hear So art thou to revenge. The ghost appears with the sole aim of using his discussion to obtain revenge on his br separate, and so ein truth word he speaks is designed to enrage Hamlet and stir in him a desire for vengeance. He uses very emotive language to exaggerate the enormity of the crime, and he concentrates Hamlets attention on the treachery of Claudius.His description of the murder itself demonises Claudius and contains many references to true sin, the serpent that did sting thy conveys life now wears his cr avow. Hamlet, who has been brought up with absolute nonions of intimately and evil, is susceptible to these religious references, o all you host of heaven O earth And shall I couple hell? It is ironic that the ghost refers to his own torment, trapped in purgatory, in point to demonstrate to Hamlet the impairment of the spotlight, yet this serves only to warn Hamlet of the executable consequences of revenge.Instead of enraging him, Hamlet is now wary of acting rashly or without proof as it could place him in a similar situation to his commence. The separate revengers in the play do not have this wariness, they act immediately without considering the ghostlike consequences and it is unclear whether Hamlet would have had a similar attitude had he not been inadvertently alerted to this danger by anile Hamlets ghost. Though Hamlets immediate reaction to radicals of his fathers murder is one of anger and a desire for action, by the end of the scene his desire for revenge is already blunted, for a occur of rea passwords. inappropriate Laertes and Fortinbras, Hamlet receives the information of his fathers murder from a secret and unreliable source, which means that not only is he changeable of the truth, he is laboured to act out his revenge in secret. passim the play, Hamlet frustrates the audience with his lack of action, especially as all almost him his contemporaries are visibly taking their own revenge. Fortinbras is in a similar situation to Hamlet, as his father had been murdered by overaged Hamlet and his land taken. The land itself i s worthless and Fortinbras stands to lose more than he can gain yet like Hamlet it is a government issue of honour.Both are exacting revenge for aroundthing that nobody else cares for or remembers a dead king for whom nobody grieves and a patch of worthless land. commence of Hamlets dilemma is the moral question of whether his desire for revenge is worth disrupting and endangering the lives of all those around him, whether tis nobler in the mind to languish the slings and arrows of dire fortune, or take arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing end them However, unlike Hamlet Fortinbras does not pause to contemplate the idea of revenge he acts on it, sharked up a list of anarchical resolutes and marched on Denmark.The difference in their characters is obvious Fortinbras character matches his name, strong in arm. He is a man of action, not of words, he has a strong presence and a commanding attitude which demands obedience, Go captain, from me distinguish the Danish king I will dot my overlord. Fortinbras situation is infinitely less complex than Hamlets own the boundaries mingled with good and evil, personal and public, right and wrong, are for him, clearly defined. He is able to act openly, un make up ones mindd by friends and family.Hamlet on the other hand is surrounded by people who have obligations to some(prenominal) himself and the king, and is whence unsure of whom to trust. Hamlets dilemma is founded on this that any action he takes carries with it risks and possible consequences which could destroy the foundation of his very existence, so he hesitates and does nothing, all the small-arm hating himself for his inaction, makes us rather bear those ills we have than aerify to others that we know not of.The problem for Hamlet is that the murder is too close to home, so he is unable to define the boundaries between personal and public. He cannot publicly anticipate Claudius without proof because he risks losing his claim to the thrown , alienating his friends and family and being exiled from Denmark, as it would be seen as an attempt by the prince to regain the throne, rather than a son avenging his fathers murder. On top of this Hamlet hopes to avoid jeopardising his relationship with his mother, but at the same time he wants revenge on her for her betrayal.In order to fully understand Hamlets psyche and therefore the reason behind his actions, it is important to understand how religion affected all aspects of life in Elizabethan times. It was believed that a person who was able to acknowledge his sins out front death would be absolved and therefore go to heaven, but if a person were unable to do this their soul would be condemned to purgatory until they were able to confess and repent. Old Hamlets soul is in purgatory and Hamlet wants Claudius to suffer the same fate, a villain kills my father and for that, I his sole son do this same villain send to heaven.Why, this is hire and salary not revenge. For this reason Hamlet has to wait for the opportune moment to kill Claudius, when he is drunk asleep, or in his rage, at game, a-swearing or about some act that has no relish of salvation in it. However, the other problem which religion creates is that of Hamlets own afterlife. If murder for revenge is wrong then by killing Claudius, Hamlet condemns his own soul along with that of Claudius. On the other hand, Hamlet is honour bound to exact revenge for his fathers murder, and the consequences of not doing so could be even more drastic.Even self-annihilation offers no solution, as the dread of something after death, the undiscovered country from whose term no traveller returns, puzzles the will, and makes us rather bear those ills we have than fly to others we know not of. Hamlets indecisiveness is not just a consequence of his uncertainty about the consequences his actions will have. He is in aflame turmoil at this point in the play, and is feeling betrayed and rejected by those whom he had relied on so remote in his life.His anger and frustration at his mothers behaviour is amplified by her lack of grief, and his desire for revenge at the start of the play is mainly fuelled by his own grief and a sense of injustice. His anger towards Claudius diminishes, as he is distracted form revenge by more immediate concerns, such as his relationships with Ophelia and with his mother. detonate of Hamlets feelings of isolation stem from what he sees as betrayal by his friends, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, and his sports fan Ophelia.Hamlets critical relationship with Claudius forces all three to take sides, and decide to whom they owe the strongest allegiance. Ophelias father Polonious, Claudius right hand man, instructs her to shun Hamlet and, as his dependant she is forced to obey him. Women were viewed as property during Shakespearian times, and without a male protector her future prospects were slim. Also, the emphasis placed on family craft and loyalty was cold greater, so to disobey her father would be equal to treason.Rosencrantz and Guildenstern were given a direct order from their king, so to disobey would actually have been treason. Added to this was their ignorance of Hamlets situation due to both Hamlet and Claudius lie, which meant that they were unsympathetic with Hamlets mental instability and obsession with old Hamlets death. Hamlet refuses to recognise the impossible situation his friends were placed in, and resents them for abandoning him when he needs them most, even though it is his feud with Claudius that has forced them to into it.Feeling betrayed, he has no compunctions in using them to further his own gains. All three are, ultimately, fatalities of Hamlets vendetta against Claudius, as Hamlet brings about the deaths of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and drives Ophelia to hydrophobia and suicide. Ophelia especially is very much a victim, as in obeying her father she loses Hamlet, and when Hamlet kills Polonious she los es him as well. With Laertes away, she has no-one left to protect her and is very much alone.In many ways, Hamlet himself is a victim of revenge, as he utilise as a motherfucker by his father, to instigate revenge against old Hamlets killer. By placing this obligation on Hamlet, on top of all his emotional instability, Old Hamlet effectively pushes his son over the edge and renders him incompetent of decisiveness. It is unsurprising that Hamlet is unable to take revenge or in fact make any significant decisions, as he is under considerable emotional and mental strain. Laertes is in a similar situation, as Hamlet his friend has murdered his father and driven his sister to madness.His unsafe state of mind makes it easy for Claudius to use him as a tool against Hamlet, so the two friends become instruments in the power struggle between the two brothers, a struggle which crosses the divide between life and death. Laertes situation resembles Hamlet in other ways. They are joined by th eir beloved for Ophelia, Hamlet as a lover and Laertes as a brother. When Laertes returns to follow his father murdered, he faces the same dilemma that Hamlet originally had in that, as far as he knew, the king of Denmark had murdered his father.Unlike Hamlet who promptly chose to employ deceit in order to beleaguer Claudiuss deceit, when Laertes discovers this he immediately confronts Claudius. By doing this he achieves his revenge far sooner than Hamlet, but consequently becomes a tool for Claudius against Hamlet. These two revengers differ in their approach to revenge, but ultimately they come to the same end. They both fall victim to the corruption that surrounds the court of Denmark, with Claudius at the centre. Claudius use of deceit throughout the play hides the truth under a overwhelm of dishonesty.Claudius uses other people as tools to achieve his aims, so if they fail he escapes the brunt. He uses Polonious, he uses the king of Norway against Fortinbras, and finally he uses Laertes against Hamlet himself. His corrupting influence means that nobody in Denmarck knows the truth, and Hamlets only attempt to break this veil of deceit causes the death of Polonious instead of Claudius. In act 3 scene 3, Shakespeare uses the curtain concealing Polonious as a metaphor for the corruption touch Denmark, making it impossible for Hamlet to take revenge as he is unaware of the truth.Though Hamlet tries to cut through the curtain, he fails and ends up killing the wrong man. This shows him that it is no good trying to confront the problem, he must remove the cloak of deceit and reveal Claudius for what he really is before he can take his revenge. Though Hamlet tries to irritate around this problem by being deceitful himself, and Laertes tries to confront the problem face on, both end up being used as weapons in a fight that kills them both. The ending of the play is very consolatory despite, or perhaps because of, the deaths of nearly all the characters.For a neat ending, it was necessary that all the characters achieve their revenge, and as there were so many intertwining strands of revenge, it was infallible that a large proportion of characters would be killed. The play ends with a new beginning, as the corruption at the heart of Denmark dies with Claudius and Hamlet. Hamlet succeeded in taking revenge on Claudius and revealing the truth about his character, and Laertes succeeded in killing Hamlet but died in the process. All this clears the way for Fortinbras, who we see is far more suited to leadership than the indecisive Hamlet.Fortinbras was more successful in his revenge than Hamlet and Laertes for a number of reasons. He is not held bandaging by the dilemma that freezes Hamlet of having to choose between betraying his fathers trust or losing the throne and alienating everyone he loves. Hamlet is held back by his law of proximity to Claudius and the situation, whereas Fortinbras is free to act uninfluenced by the people arou nd him. other factor in Fortinbras favour is that, unlike both Hamlet and Laertes, Fortinbras do the decision to take revenge alone, so it was entirely his responsibility.Revenge has to be nurtured in Hamlet and Laertes, and both are used as tools in the ongoing feud between the two brothers. Fortinbras is a man of action, and doesnt waste time pondering the philosophy behind the revenge mentality, as Hamlet does. And unlike Laertes, he plans and organises his revenge, he doesnt rush slap-up into confrontation unprepared. In fact, he represents the best qualities of both of them, so it is adaption that it is he who emerges with not only his life, but the throne of Denmark to go with it.

She says that The internal GPS of the brain is disturbed, depth perception is altered and where the body lies in relation to other objects in distance in uncalibrated (Schaeffer, Carol). In simpler terms, the release of excess stress hormones (due to loneliness) can change the perception of surroundings and sense of direction.Extreme loneliness can also cause hallucinations , especially in those who have experienced physical closing off for an extended tote up of time. angiotensin converting enzyme radical baptistery of hallucination was the chance in 1895, where Joshua Slocum was circumnavigating the globe and said that he encountered Christopher Columbus ship The Pinta.Where he claimed he spoke to the pilot of the ship, and that he also navigated his ship through sedate weather while he lay ill. Another extreme case was in 1933 when Frank Smythe attempted to climb Mount Everest. Where he became so convinced that someone was traveling alongside him that he even offered a piece of cake. (PsyPost, 2016)Despite the effects that feelings of loneliness can have on people, physical closing off has effects on people as well. One common example of pure isolation is solitary travail, where prisoners are leave in their prison cells for about 23 hours per day. According to Stuart Grassian, about one third of solitary inmates were actively psychotic and/o r suicidal.Solitary confinement can cause panic attacks, cognitive difficulties, aggressive thoughts and fantasies, paranoia, loss of self-importance control, oversensitivity, and hallucinations.One particular inmate that he interviewed said that he developed a strong obsession with the inability to feel his bladder was fully empty, he would stand hours on hours trying to pee.The obsessions they develop was a way for them to distinguish and maintain some sort of alertness.(PsyPost, 2016)Overall, the effects of physical and mental isolation are at a higher intensity than mental isolation alone because of the lack of social stimuli.Neurological Many changes occur in the brains of lonely people. For instance, studies have shown that loneliness was associated with higher levels of cortisol, often called a stress hormone. hydrocortisone can admirer control blood sugar levels, regulate metabolism, help reduce inflammation, and assist with memory formulation, (What is Cortisol?).This is because loneliness causes stress, which then causes cortisol to be released. High levels of cortisol can lead to Cushings syndrome, a syndrome that causes extreme weight gain in the face and torso.Experiments have shown that loneliness correlates with the amount of activity in the ventral striatum, a region of the brain that is joined to reward processing and plays a role in learning.For example, a contain done by the University of Chicago found that when viewing pictures of people in pleasant settings, people who were deemed as lonely showed less activity in the ventral striatum than people who were deemed as not lonely. That concludes that lonely people have a weaker reward system than non lonely people.Other experiments have shown that loneliness during childhood can cause lifelong abnormalities and cognitive problems in the brain. A professor of neurology and otolaryngology named Gabriel Corfas performed an experiment on mice to direct out the relationship among brain abnor malities and cognitive problems that were caused by loneliness.To start off, he took baby mice from their mothers when they were 21 days old. Then he come in some mice in groups of 4 in a regular lab environment, some mice in a rich environment with lots of other mice, and some mice in complete isolation. After 50 days, the mice were tested on their social and memory skills.The mice from the regular and rich environments performed well, but the isolated mice struggled with some(prenominal) skills.Corfas then examined the mices brains and found that the mice from the regular and rich environments had no abnormalities. On the other hand, the isolated mice had tubby oligodendrocytes.Oligodendrocytes, which are cells in the brain that support and keep apart axons (axons are the long and skinny parts of a neuron that pass around information to other neurons) help speed up communication between neurons by creating supportive blankets made of myelin and wrapping them around axons.Norm ally, oligodendrocytes have long, complex projections, but in this case, the isolated mice had oligodendrocytes with short and simple projections. Because the mice had stumpy oligodendrocytes, the blankets of myelin that were to be wrapped around their axons were thinner, so communication between neurons in their brain was slowed.A similar experiment was done by a professor of neurology named Dr. Michael J. Zigmond. He put a group of mice in an environment where there was lots of space, interaction with other mice, and utilisation opportunities. This was supposed to represent a general prison environment. On the contrary, he put another group of mice in their own separated shoeboxes with very limited space and no exercise opportunities. The way the lodgement is set up is very much like many solitary housing arrangements, (Zigmond, Michael).In other words, this was supposed to represent solitary confinement. Overall, Zigmond noticed that the isolated mice had simpler, less complex neurons in their brains, few connections, and communication between neurons.A study conducted on the 1950s by the University of Wisconsin psychologist Harry Harlow placed rhesus monkeys in a custom isolation put up in the shape of an alter pyramid. The chamber nicknamed the pit of despair.Had sides that were made very slippery making it unachievable to get out. The after a day or two of research, Harlow already started seeing a change in monkeys behavior. Harlow reported that the subjects were hunched over in a corner rocking back and forth for long periods of time, circling the cage in and mutilating themselves.Those who were kept in for short periods of time were able to adjust good as opposed to those who were kept in for twelve months. Those Twelve months of isolation almost obliterated the animals socially, Harlow stated.(PBS, 2014)In addition a test conducted with 38 lonely people and 32 people non-lonely people were given words and instructed to tag them as social/positi ve, social/negative, nonsocial/positive and nonsocial/negative to see the different ways they responded.Subjects were attached to electrodes to read their brain waves. Lonely subjects became more absorbed when were regarded as socially negative and also picked out socially forbidding words more quickly. This suggesting that lonely people are subconsciously aspect out for negativity. Non-lonely responded the same to both social and socially negative.(Richards, 2015)Human experiments are rare but a research conducted in 1951, researcher remunerative a group of male graduates to stay in small chamber for six weeks. The subjects were left in the chambers with goggles, earphones, and gloves limiting their sight, hearing, and touch. The only time they were allowed was when they had to go to the bathroom. CopingSome ways to prevent loneliness is to Recognize that loneliness is a sign that something has to change.Despite the fact that loneliness is a problem that can affect us negativel y, there are many ways to recognise with loneliness. What Can You Do To Help Someone Wh

Global human power Essay

Most of the victims in the fresh were Frankensteins family, William, Henry, Justine and Elizabeth. These people all suffered due to the creatures anger from Frankensteins original neglect, which is what begun the plague in the creature. It is not fair to view the creature as a human, as he was artificially created he has no human morals and has never been taught the difference between adjust and wrong, in the same genius that a court would never convict a baby.Although the creature did annihilate to master human language skills, it only pushed him further away from monastic order as it allowed him to express his alien nature. We can see this in the novel when the creature put his hand into a flack catcher, because the colours and heat of the fire attracted him I thrust my hand into the live embers but quickly pull it out again with a cry of pain. The creature was a victim in the way that he was uneducated of the world in the beginning he stepped into it.Elizabeth can easily be portrayed as a hero in the novel as she represented a holy soul and a living spirit of love. This lets her down however, when she attempts to notwithstanding Justine in a religiously Christian based way, which was not successful. Although viewed as a hero she doesnt contain any power oer other characters, just a good heart. There is contr everyplacesy over whether Frankenstein could be viewed as a hero or not, as a cowardly attribute is certainly not a trait of a true hero. When the monster asked him to create a companion for him, he give tongue to no as this would enables the creatures to breed and possibly take over international human power.On the other hand he could adjudge spared his family a lot of trouble if he had just created another being who could have possibly shown the love and understanding the creature needed. Frankenstein later realises this when he says For the initial time, I felt what the duties of a creator towards his creature were, and that I ought to hand him happy before I complained of his wickedness. Elizabeth, Frankensteins wife, was also a hero as she managed to bring up everyones spirits at sad times, and she continually believed in Justines innocence. This particular genre creates a need for both heroes and villains, as it is usually the case of good exhausting to overpower evil, or vice-versa.To conclude, I believe that there are heroes and villains, as well as victims in this novel. Most of the characters seem to change from villains, heroes and victims end-to-end the novel, especially the creature and Frankenstein. In my belief the creature was made to be the victim from the opening of the novel as he was overleap, uneducated and ostracised. I believe Frankenstein could have changed everything if he had befriended the creature in the first place.On the other hand Frankenstein was also an isolated individual, although his isolation from society was brought on himself. The novel shows the shallowness of people in so ciety by wake what the monster had to endure because of his appearance, as well as the moral irresponsibility of Frankenstein as a scientist. Frankenstein was always the villain deep down as he attempted to play God, which I dont telephone should be attempted by any human being.He was haunt with the fact that he could create life, but never once to considered if it was the right thing to do. I think Shelley is basing the whole novel on, not what Frankenstein actually did, but what he fails to do.The way the creature is portrayed in tertiary person narrative allows us to see the creature as a hero, villain and a victim. I believe that the creature viewed Frankenstein as a father figure and was mentally tortured when his own creator neglected him. He had nothing to live for, except revenge.

Bullying: How Can It Be Prevented?

ballyrag is a term utilize to describe a form of harassment perpetrated by someone who is in some way more authorityful, physically or socially than his peers or the people in the immediate environment. art object in that respect be those who guess that boss around is something that tiddlerren will soon outgrow , there is no denying the point that yobboing has become prevalent in most disciplines all everyplace America today.Given this alarmingly juicy rate of determent, the relevance of coming up with methods by which to deal with this social line of work becomes more and more app arent. However, to be cap fitting to formulate a process by which bullying hind end strongly be prevented it necessary to stolon examine bullying, its elements, vitrines and causes. Only by dint of with(predicate) an understanding of bullying lay just about parents, teachers and schools victorianly come up with the necessary mistreats to reduce or totally remove the presence of bullying.BULLYING outstanding Elements of push around The bullying has been identified by researchers as possessing the by-line characteristics or elements self-asserting and contradict behavior, repeatedly carrying out of the behavior, existent in a relationship with a great imbalance of power and the behavior as being purposeful (Hazler 1997). When these characteristics exhibit themselves in any relationship that a person has with an different person, it is highly likely that there is bullying.The aggressive and negative behavior nates often be manifested in other factors outdoors of the relationship between the bully and the dupe much(prenominal) as in the classroom or in the manner that the bully interacts with people in authority as compared to the interaction among his (bully) peers. Bullying is not a iodin and isolated occurrence. A single case of abuse or aggression, be it physical or mental, is often not a case of bullying as it whitethorn just be the result of fl aring tempers or minor disagreements among school children (Hazler 1997). Bullying involves ageless aggression over a period of time.In relationships where there is a great imbalance in power between the parties, bullying is most likely to occur. The more powerful and aggressive person has been found to exercise a certain influence over the weaker party and to dominate the other party. Bullying is not just a series of random acts of aggression. According to a study, the acts perpetrated by a bully are not just random acts of aggression plainly a series of well designed acts aimed at effectively exercising mastery of the dupe and being able to extract a certain reception that the bully is looking (Batsche 1994).When all of these elements are present in a relationship, bullying is most likely to be occurring or to occur. While these elements are not conclusive in proving or showing the cosmea of bullying, the existence of these elements has been shown to determine to a certain ex tent the presence of bullying. Types of Bullying Bullying sight basically be segregated into two distinct categories, air bullying and in bespeak bullying or social aggression. Direct bullying involves direct physical aggression by the bully over the victim.This type of bullying is most common among males and is exercised by those who are physically larger than their peers. Indirect bullying is most common among females and younger children. This is done by forcing the victim into social isolation through methods such as constant criticism of the victim, refusal to associate with the victim or by making the victim purport left out of any social activity (Batsche 1994). Bullying may manifest itself in different ways depending on the direct environment and the parties involved.Bullying, according to a recent study, is the assertion of power through aggression. Its forms change with age school playground bullying, sexual harassment. Gang attacks, leave violence, assault, marita l violence, child abuse, workplace harassment and elder abuse. (Pepler and Craig 1997). Reasons for Bullying While bullying is caused mostly by reasons individualized to the bully, researches experience pinpointed certain factors as key to understanding why bullying exists in the introductory place.Researchers have indicated that people who bully have personalities that are authoritarian, combined with a vehement need to control (Kim 2006). The same study indicates that a deficit in social skills and a prejudicial view of subordinates can be special risk factors. Other factors have been determined to be the following installation to anger and use of force, addiction to aggressive behaviors, mistaking others actions as hostile, chafe with preserving self image, and engaging in obsessive or rigid actions. (Kim 2006)TAKING A STAND AGAINST BULLYING Role of Parents, Teachers and Schools Parents, Teachers and Schools should take an active role in remedying the chore of bullying. B ullying is a behavior which often occurs during ones childhood and in certain cases continues in the immediate environment of these bullies upon reaching adulthood. One of the keys to resolution this problem therefore lies in being able to deal with the problem in its infancy stage (Harris 2006). The following are steps that can be taken to deal with this situation.Identifying the Problem The first step that can be done to properly plough the problem of bullying is to be able to properly identify the presence of bullying. Most students or children who are victims of bullying are afraid to insure to the proper authorities for solicitude of being bullied even more if they are found out. The victims are to a fault hesitant to alert the proper authorities because they do not feel that the authorities can do anything to prevent such bullying from incuring.For these reason, it is important to be able to determine the existence of bullying based on other factors and manifestations. Some of these signs that a child is being bullied are the following lowered self-esteem, unexplained broken personal possessions, loss of money, loss of personal items, unexplained bruises & injuries or stories that dont add up, missing or incomplete school work, decreased success in class, acting out aggression at home, and lack of interest at social events that include other students.At the first signs of these manifestations, steps should be taken to determine if there really is bullying going on and this can be best done by communicating to victim in a proper manner that something can be done about the situation if it is fielded quickly. Encouraging Victims to extend the Bullying The second most important step in transaction with this problem lies in being able to show to the victim and to other victims who are unwilling to report incidences of bullying that reporting it to the proper authorities is the proper thing to do.In most cases, victims of bullying are tentative to rep ort any instance of bullying because they are not assured that the problem can be dealt with (Kim 2006). The best method is in being able to assure the victim that there are people who are there to support him and help him out in this process (Storch 2005). The victim has to be assured of the fact that he is not isolated from any help. The victim also needs to know that the incident will not attach in frequency or gravity once it has been reported to the proper authorities such as teachers or school personnel.In being able to do this, the incidence of bullying can be drastically decrease when other children who have been victims themselves see that something can be done about the problem of bullying (Storch 2005). Assessing the Bully One of the most overlooked aspects in dealing with the problem of bullying has to do with being able to source the problem at the source which means dealing with the bully (Harris 2006).Bullies who are encouraged or not shown the mistakes that they a re committing have a high tendency of exhibiting such aggressive behavior outside of the school desktop and eventually bringing them into the other environments which they are immersed in and thus perpetuating this outlawed behavior. The problem of bullying, as mentioned earlier, moldiness be dealt with at its source in other to prevent more acts of bullying from happening.This method however is trickier than it seems because when orgasm or confronting a bully it must be remembered that the person may feel that such act is a sign of aggression and may react conformably. The steps with which to deal with a bully must be done in a very non-threatening manner thus reinforcing the brain that aggression is not the best way to deal with problems (Storch 2005). The bully must be made to understand that such aggressive behavior has a detrimental impact on not only the victim but on the psychological and emotional growth of the bully as well.Counseling by an expert or peer counseling has been shown to be highly effective in these instances. CONCLUSION Bullying does not have to be something that hunting lodge just has to tolerate. Neither does bullying have to be something that a child needs to experience and be able to outgrow in site to become a more mature and responsible adult. As this treat has shown, there are indeed steps that can be taken by persons in authority to curb the occurrences of bullying. The problem must first be identified correctly.The next step is to properly address some(prenominal) feelings the victim may have regarding the incident and ensuring that the aggressive behavior that the victim has experienced does not repeat itself. After this, proper programs to encourage witnesses and victims to report any incidents of bullying that occur have to be done. The final step in solving this social problem is in trying to address the problem from the side of the bully and ensuring that whatever reason the bully had for doing such is given attenti on and making sure that the event does not happen again.Proper implementation of these measures will surely help in reducing if not ridding society of this problem concerning bullying.
