Once he came home from the rehab facility my girlfriend helped take care of him while I was at work. She helped in every way she could and one of my dad’s last wishes was that I merry her because of what she had did for him. She is now my ex-wife but I will never forget how much she cared for me and my dad at our time of need. My dad Frank J Anderson in my opinion was the greatest man that ever lived. He was a hard worker, a provider, a teacher, and a father.

His good Christian values helped him deal with all the trials of a backwoodsmen’s life and helped him care for his family.
The Odyssey Odysseus is a hero who fought to save his shipmates. Odysseus, the son of maritees has been gone from his home for twenty years. During that time he had to fight many obstacles, such as the Cyclops, sirens, and lotus eaters. In homers epic poem “The Odyssey,” Odysseys proves that he is a hero because he shows bravery at every turn, he uses leadership when its needed, and is strong and does anything to save himself and the shipmates. Odysseys is a courageous hero and shows bravery at every turn he can do to protect his shipmates In “The Odyssey.” In the quote “he alone hungered for home and wife,”(homer 963) homer uses the word hungered to describe the way Odysseus is yearning for the site to see his wife and home again.
France had largely stayed out of religious conflict, and thus felt no major impact of years of fighting. Louis was best known for his absolutist rule, which led to an increase in French land; France’s centralizing under a strong ruler, and France taking its seat as the Western World, following Rome and Athens before it. Louis XIV, nicknamed “The Sun King” was born on September 5th, 1638 to Louis XIII and Anne of Austria. Louis XIV was regarded as a gift from god, since his mother had experienced 4 stillbirths prior to him. This kept him well regarded by his parents and noblemen.
In the books “the Odyssey and Zeitoun” Odysseus and Zeitoun go through an epic story of a long journey and good deeds. I believe that “Zeitoun” is the greatest epic story because of the qualities that he shows as an epic hero, a brave and noble character.

He owns a successful painting contracting business which he manages to take car of during the storm.
Tom’s mother, Ma Joad, was the strength of his family. I think he was able to support the killing because of the strong morals he learned from his mother. Tom is looking forward to going home. I believe this to be a selfish act because he has needs that must be met. He wants to go home to only receive assurance, security, and love from his family.
The help of a family friend allowed “Big Mike” to be able to attend the same Christian academy in which Tuohy’s children attended.

I feel that Sandra Bullock’s role in “The Blind Side” is irrevocably what made this movie enjoyable and homely for me, as her mannerisms and witty charm reminded me of my own mother, strong-willed and powerful. Bullock’s strengths include her beauty, confidence and her sense of humor. All three attributes were key for this role.
First I think that Jeanny helped Dominick to overcome the death of his mother. She helped him with the baby and made him realise what was truly important and there was no point to get vengeance for his mother. I think Dominick’s mother has always been a good person, she wanted the best for Dominick and supported him whatever he did, I quote: “My mother and Marnie always used to talk about thinking with their heats versus thinking with their heads” (253). Dominick’s father has
