Forgiveness

"Of course it is too soon to die i thought, but did the Nazis ask wether our children, whom they were about to gas had ever had anything out of life" (weisenthal, 31). Weisenthal's pathos tugs at the senses when he connects to the audience. Talking about the children capitilizes the brutality. What do small children dying at that age get out of life? The memories with parents and friends that makes a childhood special. the love shared throughout the engagement of friendship. Dying at such a young age puts all of that to a hault.
I think that Weisenthal's point portrays his confusion as to why Karl deserves forgiveness and to be felt sorry for, for dying young when Simons community was dropping at even younger ages.

Forgiveness

90 Minutes till the ship is completely sunk; 90 minutes to figure out an escape; information that slipped to be crucial. In my final moments I realized how pissed I am at Captain Smith, but can I blame him for hitting the iceberg? The only light shining at this point is the moon, and the trace it leaves in the children's tears as I watch them get separated from their families, people screaming all around leaves me more anxious to find some sort of survival plan, but in the still clear part of my mind, as everything is crashing around me I realize Im at ease with Captain Smith. No one is to blame...

Healing forgivness

Why don't people forgive? Living in the Bible Belt, many would think forgiveness would come as second nature, but when they hear of "a con artist (swindling) elderly people out of their life savings," the instant response is a negative, derogatory statement. As humans we will all make  mistakes, some more afflicting than others, so, as Christians, we must all remember that before concluding a judgement on one's behavior.

Thanks for the Name.

In John Steinbeck’s historical fiction novel, Of Mice and Men, we meet Curley’s wife; someone to look at. “Wait till you see Curley’s wife.” Some people may think. A person with bestowed power, but is that power alone enough? Though, she comes off as nothing more than a whore, she is longing to fulfill her dream of becoming someone bigger than she is.

                Curley’s wife feels stuck where she is-unhappy, and although her life is simple, she has no worries. She would like to move onto bigger-and-better things. She met a man from Hollywood who was going to write her but she “Never got that letter”. She would like to go to Hollywood and “[be] in the movies and [have] nice clothes.” Dressing up, doing her makeup, and accentuating her body is her way of getting the attention she would, if she were to be famous. She seeks men for this attention because she knows from them, she will most likely get it.

To others Curley’s wife is exactly that. Curley’s  wife. She doesn’t show a lot of moral value, so therefore she’s not such a value to anyone.  Sure she’s on a pedestool for being Curley’s wife, but referring back to the movie, was there a lot of emotion coming from Curley when she died? Not quite. To him, she was a dime piece to today’s society.                       

“Do you know what I could to you?” She knows the power she has, and she uses it to her ability. She attacks the people she knows she can belittle; they are incapable of sticking up for themselves for they know that if it came down to their word or hers, she would win undoubtedly. “Yeah, I just tend the horses” crooks being an easy target, because he’s black.  Lennie is also in the line of fire, mainly because most people know he’s slow.

Conclusively, her dream is evident throughout the story. She is unhappy with her life as is. She needs more going for her.

Maybe she just wants a name  :p

THE RUSH

Cool crisp water, sparkling white tips the water creates as it rushes off the random stairs. In the summer, wakeboarading and skiing on the glass like water, basking in the sun and coming home to show mom and dad your cherry colored skin. walking on the sharp like rocks coated with sand by the river; the sandbar. In the spring the water rises to record breaking heights for our little town. News teams coming to the park to report the murky, high water. in the winter, seeing it film over from the cold. Not quite freezing but just glazed over, breaking like glass going over the stairs. Cool crisp water.

were they innocent, or guilty?

How did Osama Bin Laden prepare his men to attack the Twin Towers?  Osama had some odd procedures for his men to follow before they set themselves out to kill themselves, along with a bunch of other innocent people.  But were these people completely guilty? Osama basically, brainwashed them into believing that if they wouldn’t sacrifice themselves, that they weren’t giving their whole self to God. They believe you can give yourself to God by reading the Holy Quran all hours of the day. But nevertheless, sacrificing yourself is the ultimate offering to God.
