1. Parvana’s Journey written by Deborah Ellis says a lot of things about the concept of journeys. One of the main things that I have found is that in a journey it may be hard and it may even be impossible like what Parvana had to do in disguising herself as a boy in order to find her family in all of Afghanistan, however you can overcome the challenges faced in the journey with perseverance and eventually with the right attitude you can overcome any obstacle that any journey throws at you. This novel also says that in the journey you meet new people like what Parvana did when she met Asif and Leila and Hassan while on the journey. Parvana’s journey also suggests that when you go on journeys changes happen, which happens when Parvana found her long lost mother and sisters but lost her dear friend Leila at the end of the journey.

Living in the world where transitions are a natural part of human existence, rigidity in set views hinder transitions and prevent a person successfully adapting to the new. To survive in new environments individuals need to have a sense of belonging and purpose. They also need to feel that they are loved and supported in this new world. Often this requires letting go of set values and ways in order to willingly embrace a new world. These perceptions are presented in Tennessee Williams critically acclaimed play ‘A Streetcar Named Desire’ (1947) and the award winning short story ‘Stolen Car’ by Archie Weller (1978).
Communicate using: the individual’s preferred spoken language; the use of signs; symbols; pictures; writing; objects of reference; communication passports; other non verbal forms of communication; human and technological aids to communication. Key people include: family; friends; carers; others with whom the individual has a supportive relationship. Move on from the environment may be: in the short term, because the arrangements were temporary; suddenly, because of changes in the individual’s needs and requirements; because the living environment is no longer available (eg closing down, there are specific conditions and rules individuals have to meet, to remain within the environment); because of problems with the individual and/or others within the living environment; in the medium to long term because of changes in the individual’s needs, circumstances and requirements. New living environments might include moving from: home to hospital, residential care, sheltered or other accommodation; ward to ward; hospital to home, residential care, sheltered or other accommodation; homelessness to living accommodation (eg housing, hostels, hotels).

Morris emphasizes the consistently thought the essay. On a personal level, symbols help us to our own personal space. As Morris states, that if our personal space is trespassed, such as in a crowded elevator, we have a tenancy to ignore them. For example a conversation, If someone gets to close in your personal space we tend to move back to a distance that feels comfortable for us. Another way of reinforcing your territory is to use personal markers.
My Sacred Space The world is constantly changing, if we observe life long enough we notice that there will always be ups and downs and we could try to be on the surface of things but the reality is that there will always be change. The only thing that will allow us to go through change in a graceful way is if we are able to connect with our inner self. Connecting to our inner self is so much easier when we have an outer space that is aligned with peace and reminds us of the sacred, beauty, and grace that is within us. Sacred space may simply just be a space that you create for yourself that is yours and speaks to your heart. My sacred place is my bedroom, it is the perfect place for me to meditate because there isn’t a lot of foot traffic, that way it is just personal for me, I feel safer, and helps me with my own frequency and my own intentions.
Everyone has their own description of what a journey is, but the definition spans beyond the definition found in a dictionary. The challenges or trials met along the journey should not deter a person from reaching the destination. The difficulties or obstacles that are encountered on the journey can change a person’s opinion on many levels. In “A Worn Path” by Eudora Welty and “Used to Live Here Once” by Jean Rhys has one theme in common; the journey they take in life. The stories both center on the journey, and the way a person goes from one phase of life to another.
“I just remember walking between them and feeling for the first time that I belonged somewhere”. Wanting to belong and the feeling that we get from belonging is what we strive for, which is in our human nature. The benefits we gain from belonging by far outweigh the costs but those costs are inevitable and can change a lot about ourselves. Our sense of identity can be compromised by belonging to a group. In Amish communities, individuals all obey the one simple way of living without modern technologies and plain dressing and face being shunned from the community if they do not respect the Amish way of life.
Because my video was more directed to immigrants that just went through the transition to a new country, I tried to eliminate most variables that would complicate the communication between my audience and me. In order to achieve this, I completely eliminated language out of my remediation, relying only on expressions, actions, and music. This decision was key to ensure that every member of my intended audience was able to watch the video and obtain the same information as someone from a different background. To fulfill my purpose, I decided that it would be important for me to show the before and after of making that decision and the benefits that decision brought to the student. After all, reaching out of the comfort zone takes courage, especially if that involves different cultures and different languages.
Through interactions with the surrounding world and those in it, and individuals perceptions of belonging evolve in favour of their personal happiness. The notion of belonging or not belonging to create this sense of personal happiness is complex, where an individual’s innate need to belong, their confusion and their curiosity influence their decision to isolate or include themselves. This is made in Emily Dickinson’s anthology The selected Poems of Emily Dickinson, and is apparent in her poems “This is my Letter to the World,” “What mystery pervades a Well,” and “I had been hungry all these years” An individual’s innate need to belong may force them to strive for acknowledgement. Dickinson’s initial dilemma with belonging is portrayed in her poem “This is my letter to the world,” where she understands her rejection, yet yearns to belong to society. Demonstration of Dickinson’s fruitless attempts to belong is evident in her Highly personal “Letter to the World” that she emphasises “never wrote” back.
