Recommended: Positive and negative effects of romantic relationships

In this world, there is right and wrong. As children, we were always taught to do what is right. However, as we grow older, our eyes perceive life as it is, not the fairytale we grew up to believe.

And for months now, I have had the pressing decision weighing down on me: Will I continue using the boy looked up to by so many, if it means saving my family, or will I do right by him and tell him the truth, no matter how badly he gets hurt? In the first month on summer, 2016, I started dating Hunter. And as a result of this, my life has been the most complicated it’s ever been. However, it is not because I don’t like Hunter. Believe me when I

  • "How to Talk to a Hunter" by Pam Houston

    373 Words  | 1 Pages

    In "How to Talk to a Hunter" by Pam Houston, the hunter is portrayed as a liar, cheater, and unwilling to commit to any type of relationship. In my opinion, he is misunderstood and degraded because of his psychological issue of reluctance to commit to a monogamous relationship. His reluctance to commit is often overshadowed by the narrorator's views and large distrust issue.

Most people are sleeping at this hour of the night, but I'm just now waking up to pack up my gear and head into the forest for the morning. Last night I packed my .30-06, tree stand, a small cooler full of food and a rucksack full of hunting equipment including deer scent, camouflage paint and a flashlight. I've been planning a hunt for two weeks, and the weekend has finally come. I get up from bed, shake off the cold of the morning and get ready to leave by four.

  • Analysis Of The Ones Who Walk Away From The Omelas

    ...e law, it does not mean that it is right and that we should be so ignorant to reason. In this situation, I would not be able to live with myself knowing that this one little boy is not being fed, being kicked, and left alone to basically die for my happiness. That is completely unacceptable. I believe that while it is innate for us to settle for comfort, we should not live a life that needs abuses someone to accomplish something. According to the categorical imperative, one should abide what they ought to do because it manifests from the moral law. Thus, I would walk away from Omelas because all people are equal and I would not be able to view this boy as a means to my end, which is happiness. Also, if that is the only way for me to achieve happiness then it is not true happiness but superficial emotion that can easily be demolished if anything happens to the boy.

    Initial contact came the moment he caught my eye during cross-country. I perceived immediate attraction and my friends began referring to him as Paige’s crush. Similarity of interests connected us and provided opportunities for interactional contact through high school soccer. The relationship developed from afar as we watched and learned about each other through the proximity of our neighborhoods, living only a mile apart. Exhilarating, heart-pumping rushes of emotion overwhelmed me each time John called. Showing Interest, John pursued me and wanted to spend time together. Our personalities meshed. Uncontrollable Duchenne smiles took over when I saw or thought about him. Team dinners required no need to speak because our nonverbal communication and eye contact said it all, demonstrated by winks and silly faces. By the end of the summer we were bound and officially dating.

    Dating use to be simple. Two people get to know each other, go on a few dates, and then one day they decide to be boyfriend and girlfriend. However, this doesn't seem to be the case anymore. The term “Dating” is getting used less every day. Dating is a thing of the past because it takes a longer process for two people to determine if they are ready to commit, the term “talking” has replaced the word dating, and because people don't stay fully committed to one person anymore.

  • The Three Classical Ethical Theories

    1435 Words  | 3 Pages

    Every day we are confronted with questions of right and wrong. These questions can appear to be very simple (Is it always wrong to lie?), as well as very complicated (Is it ever right to go to war?). Ethics is the study of those questions and suggests various ways we might solve them. Here we will look at three traditional theories that have a long history and that provide a great deal of guidance in struggling with moral problems; we will also see that each theory has its own difficulties. Ethics can offer a great deal of insight into the issues of right and wrong; however, we will also discover that ethics generally won’t provide a simple solution on which everyone can agree (Mosser, 2013).
