Recommended: Important in human life

Ruth 1:16-17 I know I always thank you for stepping up on my behalf in terms of spiritual guidance and naturally protecting me. The reason I thank you so much is because I too have trust issues but I also feel alone (not having my sister around). Sometimes as I feel as though I don't have anyone, as though I'm all alone in this world, my circle is tiny! To the point, I wonder what if... what if something happened would I be missed (Hypothetical situation, so no worries) ..Could people honestly say I was sincere and genuine in everything I did? I hold SO much in that at times it's bearing, but I'm able to withstand it for the most part. Even though my sister passed of cancer I just feel like I let her down, like I couldn't protect her. I wonder

  • The Poisonwood Bible Ruth May's Death Analysis

    1166 Words  | 3 Pages

    To begin with, Orleanna in Kingsolver's The Poisonwood Bible and Materia in MacDonald's Fall on Your Knees both lost their daughter. They both have grieved their loss, but it is in the way they grieved that has determined their progress in life. To start, the death of Ruth May was tragic to say the least, but Orleanna reacted in a smart way that has shown to pay off. It is evident that Ruth May's death was the figurative 'last straw' for Orleanna and she needed no more delay to leave the Congo. Orleanna became fixated on saving herself and her remaining children, saying "as long as I kept moving, my grief streamed out behind me like a swimmer's long hair in the water" (Kingsolver 381). Orleanna kept herself distracted from Ruth May's death

  • Summary Of Women In Their Eyes Were Watching God 'And The Scarlet Letter'

    977 Words  | 2 Pages

    In history, women have been at the mercy of corrupt and oppressive societal forces. In Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God and Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter, this is truly evident. Both Hurston and Hawthorne focus of the oppression of women in society, also with the central theme of female repression presented in both plots. As works of literature, the two novels convey these concepts in symbolism. Throughout Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God and Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter, both authors engage the use of symbols to represent oppression that the female characters faced.

    The book of Ruth, written around 10th century B.C., has an undetermined author, although many contribute authorship to Samuel. Ruth only includes four chapters; but, within the brief book there are many lessons that are, “…rich in examples of kindness, faith, and patience” (HCSB Study Bible, Ruth). Main personalities throughout the book include: Ruth, Naomi, and Boaz. Ruth, a gentile, proves that non-Jewish people have the ability to believe in the True God, “…Do not persuade me to leave you or go back and not follow you. For wherever you go, I will go, and wherever you live, I will live; your people will be my people, and your God will be my God” (The Holy Bible: HCSB Digital Text Edition, Ruth 1:16).

    Within two days of my father's mothers death, there was a receiving of friends gathering at the Church on Tennessee's campus. At first it started off with just family members and close friends talking and comforting each other. My grandmothers passing was very tough on me and other members in my family but it hit my father the hardest. After several moments of catching up with family members the first of many people started piling into the Church. Many of my family's friends and loved ones of my grandmother began to make there way over to me and my father. Each person that greeted me would say the same thing. "I'm so sorry this happened to you Stokes. Your grandmother was an amazing woman and she will be deeply missed. She is in a better place now." I thanked all of these kind words while fighting back tears. One of the toughest parts of the evening was when the people inside the Church would offer their condolences to my father. "If there is anything you need, just let me know" was one of the more redundant and frequent sayings that were spoken to my father. Even though all of the condolences were worded differently, I noticed the same sound of hesitance and uncertainty the voices. All of the people who wanted to offer help to my father in this time of need, were unsure how to do so. I understand what the people must have even

  • Irony In The Book Of Ruth

    694 Words  | 2 Pages

    One highlight from Abingdon Old Testament Commentaries: Ruth, by Judy Fentress-Williams is loyalty. In the book of Ruth, Ruth states, “Where you go, I will go; where you lodge, I will lodge; your people shall be my people, and your God my God” (Ruth 1:14). Ruth says this to Naomi after Naomi tried to push her away. The commentary states that Ruth said this to Naomi as they were moving from Ruth’s homeland to Naomi’s homeland (Williams, chapter 1). I think this is significant because it shows that Ruth is actually following Naomi and not leaving her behind or abandoning her. This verse is a pivotal event in the first chapter which makes it even more significant (Williams, chapter 1). This is when the setting begins to change. It starts off in Moab and then they both travel to the land of Judah. It also

  • Mary Warren The Crucible Essay

    1002 Words  | 3 Pages

    The Crucible, a play written by Arthur Miller in 1953, is a story partially fictionalized and dramatized, that portrays the witch trials that took place in Salem, Massachusetts between 1692 and 1693. Miller was inspired to write this play when the congressional committee was questioning him about his activities with the American Communist Party. The play is an allegory of the time when mass hysteria caused no one to be safe; it petitions for freedom and tolerance. When there is frenzy, in this case witchcraft, people act upon an impulse to deviate from what is moral, jump from evidence to conclusions, and fall under others’ influence. In the play, Mary Warren is John and Elizabeth Proctor’s maidservant who becomes one of the accusers during

    When I look over my “ The Loss Of My Sister’ essay I wrote it makes me proud of myself to know I was that strong to write about such a close topic to me and my family. I always wanted to write the story of my sister but I never had an opportunity to. I always kept quite about the situation I went through because I did not want the sorrow and pity from others. When ever I did tell someone that I have a dead sister, they would respond “ I don’t know what to say other than I'm sorry” it makes me feel awkward because I don’t know if I say thank you or it’s okay? Since I wrote about what happened I decided I’d write about how it is now without her.
