I wrote you letters, to three people in my life. Each has helped me get through a very tough time, and I am beyond grateful for them all. They were the ones who helped me get through my life while still holding my values, and goals. I have express my gratitude many times by speaking out loud to them about it. Expressing how my needs were met by their existence in my life. It’s a common courtesy, and a sign of respect to say thank you. Writing a thank-you letter to someone is a sure way of connecting
Thank you for all that you do for me. It is impossible for me to fully justify in a single letter the amount of love, hard work, dedication, and support you both give me each and every day. You both are the key to my success. It is because I want to make you both proud that I work harder each day. Thank you for taking care of me throughout this time in my life, but now it is my turn to do the same. I know you both have a dream for your daughter to become a doctor, and I will fulfill that dream at

Prologue Have you ever been at that desperate point in your life where you were begging- no pleading for a word from "up there?" You plan your day around an hour of time tucked away, specifically for quiet time with Jesus. First, you get everything that could distract you out of your room: cell phone, kids, food, work, laundry and to do lists. You sit down, empty your mind from all thoughts, and determine to hear His VOICE. You wait rather impatiently. You hear nothing, not even a faint whisper
Like many of you, I greatly enjoy Dan Lowenstein’s Expresso newsletters. However, they tend to leave me a little wanting – for dessert! In the spirit of restraint, we will only offer dessert on a quarterly basis. The dessert recommendation for this first newsletter
In the films, “Thank You For Smoking,” directed by Jason Reitman and “Kinsey,” directed by Bill Condon, main characters Nick Naylor and Dr. Alfred Kinsey, defend their actions with either facts, strong opinions, and in Naylor’s instance, symbolism. Hence, both have dynamic characteristics that make them persuasive when proving their points. In both films, there are two questions that are raised. Are their actions justified and reflected in societal morals? Are they trying to route people into a
view of events, personalities and situations, to convince the reader on the validity of his argument. A perspective is a point of view, and a conflicting perspective is where two point of views clash. Similarly to this, is Jason Reitman's film'Thank You For Smoking' which is a satire of the perception of promoting smoking, but not to the level in which it is disregarded, as no character smokes on film. ‘The Trials of Oz’ is a representation of Robertson’s personal argument against a cautious thinking
as unsafe as perceived by the society, by shifting its dangers to unimportant issues. As the lead campaigner for Big Tobacco Companies, he is hired to create a positive image of tobacco thereby maximizing profit for these companies. In the movie “Thank you for smoking,” Naylor employs various fallacies to demonstrate how arguments can distract an audience from their original values, beliefs and concerns. A common fallacy used by Mr. Naylor in the movie is the red herring fallacy. Here, the debater
for the size of the gift (Sargeant & Shang, 2010). One of the most common and welcomed ways to thank a donor is through a letter. A thank you letter provides an organization with a way to thank the donor in a formal yet personalized way. An acknowledgement of a gift would be sent out within one week of receiving the gift as it is just good etiquette but the sooner the better. Sending a thank you letter 6 months later sends the message that the donor is not a priority or that the gift was not very

Common curtesy has us saying “Thanks” to the point that we may have lost the intentions associated with the response. W.S. Merwin sums up this anomaly in his poem “Thanks”, saying “with nobody listening we are saying thank you” (Merwin 29). We say thanks for so many meaningless things that it no longer carry’s the true intent of the speaker. Instead it is a response to acknowledge the receiver rather than giving true thanks. This repetition allows for questions regarding what are we truly thankful
DQ 2 A) Pick five of the statements listed in Exercise #4 (pg. 153), briefly identify why each is impersonal, and then provide a rewrite. 1) A – Original: It becomes incumbent upon this office to cancel order #2394. REVISED: We regretfully inform you that order #2394 must be canceled. The original sentence uses a “pompous” word, “incumbent” when a more impersonal word choice is available. Also, by adding the word “regretfully” to the sentence, it adds a personal touch. 2) B – Original: Management

I am a 15 year old student from Waukon High School in Iowa, and I wanted to talk to you about child abuse. I think that child abuse is a terrible thing, and the people that do it should be sent away for a long time. The people that do it are terrible people because they abuse children that did not do anything to them. They should never gain their right to see their children, or be able to go near any children, and be with them by themselves, or with anybody else that wants to hurt children. The
Scholarship Endowment Fund, I want to tell you a short but life-changing story about a day. It was an ordinary day which was about to become way may more different from others that have passed. As the day started, I got asked the question of which was being discussed every day since I got accepted to AUA. That question was if I have received a letter about my financial tuition.

Firstly, be proactive. Find ways to establish relationships with clients before they need to purchase something from you. Secondly, send a thank-you note. If someone is willing to give you 15 minutes of their time than they deserve a written thank-you. And thirdly, be a good sport. Even if you have been turned
Nettie’s fourth letter to Celie was about her trip to Africa. She told Celie “I remember one time you said your life made you feel so ashamed you couldn’t even talk about it to God, you had to write it, bad as you thought your writing was. Well, now I know what you meant” (Walker 130). Nettie sad this because ever since she found out that Albert was not giving Celie the letters, she started to tear them apart right after she wrote them.
