Ahmed Amer Composition with Lab ENGL-108-66072 “Life Memorable Objects” He said “It is sadder to find the past again and find it inadequate to the present than it is to have it elude you and remain forever a harmonious conception of memory,” (F. Scott Fitzgerald Quotes- BrainyQuote). I do believe that when we control past, we control future. The author of “A mother's secret,” Werner Gundersheimer was looking for the missing memories of his family history. Because he is a professional historian, he realized that if we don’t have history, we don’t have present, and future. Gundersheimer’s mother gave him family album, and it was valuable gift, but it flooded his mind with memories that related to album pictures.
Aside from the physical elements of the cemetery are more abstract and symbolic qualities that the cemetery represents to people. Arlington National Cemetery represents a strong sense of valor, courage, and self-sacrifice. The men and women honored with being put to rest there are the finest we as a nation have to offer, they symbolize the best of us. Although Arlington is a very inspiring and humbling place, it also full of melancholy, for not only are those buried there heroes to their country, but they are also beloved family members who have had to leave their families who want not valor or heroism, but their loved one returned to them. The cemetery can cause any number of emotional
“Far more relevant to the Egyptians in life was the preparation of death…for a better life in the Hereafter, (Frankfort, 1977). It was understood that the body would be reborn into a life much like the one on earth, but in a perfected sense, (Frankfort, 1977). Great expense and attention were paid to the after life of an Egyptian leader, (Robins, 2008). Chapels, places for offerings, art and statues for him to watch over those who attended him in death were produced and maintained, (Robins). They guaranteed his comfort and aided him as a guide to his people through worship as well as intervention through ritual ceremonies, (Robins).
Art is good because This pathos and ethos made people, no matter the North or the South, to feel that they are in unity. Both sides were suffering the same war and urged to end it, while they shared a same religion. God plays an important role to connect the people together, which enhances Lincoln’s credibility in his speech besides his position as a president and occasion of this speech. Lincoln ended his speech by claiming that they would “strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations” (Wilhoit 138). This pathos describes how Lincoln would care for his people and how he would put the task of helping the people suffering from the war first, serving as a strong pathos since it is not only emotionally affecting his people, but also encouraging and giving them hope.
Those who have died, he asks them to look down and say they will never forget. He asked those who survived to look up and say they never forget. This oath is symbolic because the author shows communication between the living and the dead. He wants those who have died to be honored and those who have survived he want them to be advocate to tell everyone what war was really like. Nothing should be sugar coded because many lives were lost and many individuals suffered a great deal and everyone should understand why.
This dark reality leaves the reader with a motivation to make the most of life as we encounter it. Herrick, with his avid fascination of ancient philosophies, developed an appreciation of life and wrote to motivate readers to live life to its fullest. No matter what we achieve in life, no matter how great we become, we are all destined to die. In the end, what we achieved matters little; the quality of life should not be measured in the successes but rather in the moments that we
Morrie deteaches himself so that he can accept these predicaments in his life and so that he will be able to embrace his deathe easier since he’s well aware that it’s approaching. A quote Morrie constantly refers is to “Love each other or die”. He stresses this quote and major theme in the novel because he feels that an abundance of love and compassion is the highest sense of fulfillment that one can experience; especially because Morrie had such a significant lack of both love and compassion throughout his childhood. Love is so crucial to Morrie as he is nearing his final days of life because he feels that without the care of those who love him, he would perish. Morrie is not afraid of dying, however
Naomi knows that Boaz is a Kinsmen Redeemer to her family. Knowing all this helps interpret the passage in its historical-cultural context. It is important to know the all the customs when a spouse and sons die. This is essential to understanding the meaning of the book of Ruth. I believe that the one of the ways to persuade men and women to make and effort to study historical-cultural context is to explain that God revealed himself to these people during their time in history.
My granddad was an inspiration to me; he’s pushed me towards helping people. This came to my decision that I am going to help people as my job, a doctor. I want to be able to stop people from losing a loved one when they don’t need to die, to stop them going through the horrid torture I went through and still am. You never get over a death of a loved one, no matter how hard you try; they’re apart of you for life and nothing can change that. My granddad taught me to love, he taught me life is precious, whether it’s fun or hard going, it is something to treasure for as long as you can.
