At the moment, I was shocked when Ms. Clark told me that Jerry had no mother nor skates, not because I heard her doltish voice. I was shocked at that fact that a responsible and caring little twelve years old boy lied to me. After a while, I wonder why Jerry lied. One thought I had in mind was that Jerry didn't want to get adopted. I wanted to ask why he lied. Although, I wasn't sure if Jerry wanted to talk about it. The next day I went outside to see the pomegranate pink sunset. I glanced to my left and I thought I saw a little girl. She was was wearing a filthy stripe shirt, untidy skinny jeans, and some torn Skechers. She looked like she was a caring but also a savage little girl. At that moment, I realized she was friends with Jerry.
Susie’s mother opened the door to let Molly, Susie’s babysitter, inside. Ten-month old Susie seemed happy to see Molly. Susie then observed her mother put her jacket on and Susie’s face turned from smiling to sad as she realized that her mother was going out. Molly had sat for Susie many times in the past month, and Susie had never reacted like this before. When Susie’s mother returned home, the sitter told her that Susie had cried until she knew that her mother had left and then they had a nice time playing with toys until she heard her mother’s key in the door. Then Susie began crying once again.
Fourteen-year-old Jerry Renault is like your typical skinny or thin teenager in his freshman year at Trinity, a boys' Catholic high school. He tends to dwell on depressive emotion, sexual frustration due to hormones, and loneliness from his mother as well as asking his own existent in the world. He is has no mother and had recently died in a few months. He often remembers and recalling times of his parents lived together in a house with a large backyard and front lawn which his father never got tired of mowing it. He's trying to make quarterback and to do well in school despite that fact weighing him down. As well as being best to be a good son to his widowed father but Jerry is beginning to freak out of his father’s boring life style. He worries about ending up like his dad and being stuck in the same routine as his father. Realizing this factor, Jerry decides to make a change in his life out of impulse saying "No" to chocolates but, he's really saying "no" to the entire “universe” that The Vigils and Brother Leon created at Trinity. The random guy out from the streets accuses Jerry of being a "Square boy. Middle aged at fourteen… “. Disregarding the guy’s aimless lifestyle, he begins questioning all the routines in his life. It’s not like he doesn't love and appreciate his father but Jerry becomes more worried that he'll grow up and be trapped in the kind of boring life as his dad. He comes to the realization that his father is stuck living a dull, almost unhappy life as he looks in the mirror and "sees his father's face reflected in his own features." We can see also in the story, Jerry tends to waver in the border lines of excitement and boredom by isolating himself and not being isolated. In the beginning of t...

Throughout our lives, we carry and value our own beliefs. As we face different challenges, we may be persuaded into making certain choices. However, no matter how convincing a person may be, in the end we always have the last word. Nobody likes being told what to do but we do like to hear other opinions for a different perspective. The proper way of using rhetoric is through a confident tone that is knowledgeable of their topic. The speaker should have integrity and be selfless in the sense that they are understanding towards their audience.
When things don’t go peoples way they react very badly, acting in violence to hurt or kill the person. Especially in political circumstances when a president is elected that someone doesn’t like they try to assassinate the person. Don’t try to fix things that are beyond your reach because it will always end badly. But, also when things don’t go your way you fight as hard as you can to try and fix then, but if you fail you accept what has happened and move on no matter how flawed or corrupt it is. In TKAM Atticus tried as hard as he could to help Tom Robinson but lost the trial and was very upset, but he didn’t go and harm or kill any of the people involved, especially the jury.

Ever since the fall, mankind has had a voracious desire for power and influence. People witness this desire within the walls of the Capitol Building when the media exposes backroom deals. It also springs up whenever a politician uses a podium to persuade people that he makes the world work. Politicians possibly rely on persuasion because they crave the power. However, persuasion is a manipulative, unBiblical tactic of forcing others to accept a point of view by all means necessary.
The narrator, Twyla, begins by recalling the time she spent with her friend, Roberta, at the St. Bonaventure orphanage. From the beginning of the story, the only fact that is confirmed by the author is that Twyla and Roberta are of a different race, saying, “they looked like salt and pepper” (Morrison, 2254). They were eight-years old. In the beginning of the story, Twyla says, “My mother danced all night and Roberta’s was sick.” This line sets the tone of the story from the start. This quote begins to separate the two girls i...
Have you ever had your future all laid out for you? Everything was going to go your way, and happen perfectly. Your plan would lead you to success, but then disaster strikes. You’re walking across the street, then life hits you with a 10,000 pound truck. You’re put into a coma, and don’t wake up for a whole year.

WHO IS THE BLAME? Good afternoon, my fellow audience. I am here today to persuade you on who I believe to be the character most responsible for the death of the two main characters in the play, Romeo and Juliet, a tragedy written by William Shakespeare. It is almost an ironic play because of its open and easily known ending, but yet its ending raises the controversial question, WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THE DEATH OF ROMEO AND JULIET? I believe every character in the book contributed to their deaths, even Romeo and Juliet themselves, but Friar Lawrence bears a monumental deal of the blame because he was the principle and most reliable adult that could have steered the ‘inexperienced’ couple, but his incompetency led Romeo and Juliet to a violent death.
I’m sure everyone remembers being a relentless, reckless teenager who had to put up with parents, young love, friendship problems and hormones; which at the time took over your entire life. Now imagine having all of these struggles on top of, having to stress about finding a suitable lady to marry, or whether there is to be another battle tomorrow that will cost you your life, whilst your absent parents care more about a pointless feud rather than loving you. Good Morning/Afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the life of Romeo Montague.

I believe Jerry was ethical because during the story Jerry was showing that he was honest, hardworking and caring. The narrator even talks about how much integrity Jerry has because of how he carries himself and how he does his work. I believe Jerry lies in the end because he might be ashamed of the fact that he has no mother. Also, I believe Jerry may have lied because he starts to care about the narrator and is hurt because she has to leave just like his mother left him. This may have made Jerry feel worst than he did before he meet her.
