Molly was her name. She does me good, and not harm, all the days of her living life here on earth. She seeks happiness with me, and works with willing hands at home while I’m out to work.

He think he knows more than what he actually does. His shop is a converted garage at his house. So tracking him down won’t be a problem.
The Widow’s Broom – Riley Finn How has your picture book helped you to understand an aspect of society? Society as we know it is full of moral codes and dignities that, whether we are aware of them or not, influence our every action and decision. Although unwritten, these rules dictate what we view as acceptable in our everyday lives. However, these guidelines can often be misconstrued or, more commonly, exaggerated to the point of ill founded prejudices. The Widow’s Broom, by Chris Van Allsburg looks at the way in which society can be misled by these prejudices, and this can lead to disharmony between individuals or groups.
Manipulation of media is of course one of the main factors. Nowadays, we know all too well how easily it is for media corporations to support one political agenda or another by twisting facts and feeding false information. Consumerism, supported and viralized by media, also carries a message which tends to separate those who consume a certain kind of product from those who do not, stating that the former are happier than the latter. This exercises certain social pressure among consumerist individuals who may somehow see their social status affected and thus feel left out. As a result, the key for the survival of individuality lies in how conformist the people are ready and willing to become.

Landon Howard The American Dream I have known of the American dream for most of my life but never really understood it. However through reading books, and reading articles and watching shows, and discussing with my classmates, I have come to know more and more about the American dream. Being an American citizen I see the American dream being achieved but also it not being achieved all the time. So many people are living happily, when also so many others who couldn’t achieve their dream live unhappily and not believing in the American dream. People around the world see the American Dream in all different ways, but all thoughts of it include the person achieving happiness.
Media is the backbone of American society today. People thrive on the drama of knowing what celebrity did what with who, or what stocks crashed this week, or even what the next act of congress might be. Every individual will have their own opinion on how important all of these topics are, but the fact still remains that without media, the large majority of people in today’s American society would be lost. One of the most common forms of media that is accessible by every American today is television. Television allows people to know what’s going on in the world, it gives people endless hours of entertainment, and it even has a certain value in advancing people’s knowledge on certain topics.
