Words: 826 / Pages: 4 .... She had the responsibility of watching her nephew while her sister got to go to school.

especially if your government is making sure that all your needs are

Scarlet Letter Thesis
Words: 669 / Pages: 3 .... treasure, Pearl, out of it. She is a very strong woman to be able to hold up so well, against what she must face. Many would have fled Boston, and sought a place where no one knew of her great sin. Hester chose to stay though, which showed a lot of strength and integrity. Any woman with enough nerve to hold up against a town which despised her very existence, and to stay in a place where her daughter is referred to as a "devil child," either has some sort of psychological problem, or is a very tough woman.
The second meaning that the letter "A" took was "able." The townspeople who once condemned her now believed her scarlet "A" to stand for h .....

The story was told as a third person point of view. I enjoyed this story because it shows that how Jonas stands up against what he thought was wrong. The place was suppose to be a utopia turns out to be a dystopia to Jonas. It shows that how the people acts in the real life. How they act to be honest but they are actually lying. The government in the story is the biggest lie, they .....

The Owls Are Not What They See
Words: 3451 / Pages: 13 .... the bold stance that Twin Peaks takes on femininity is true.
Twin Peaks treats domestic violence and abuse with a creepy insensitivity.

Little girls are not abused by their fathers; if they meet an unhappy end, the reason must be sought .....

Although Peturicho does not want to change Kate’s inward thoughts, he does not want to break her spirit. The greatest example can be quoted below.
