Hey guys today were going to be discussing a reading Hills Like White Elephants (Ernest Hemingway) this one is going to be difficult to tell the truth i was kind of lost from the section i read i was reading a story with no beginning or end so ill try to do my best with the little i got from the reading. The story was about a man and a women who are in love or one of them is in love and their at a train station waiting for a train. From what i can tell their relationship is on the rocks and whatever sacrifice the girl wants to make is to save her relationship.
: Does she stay in her relationship with the man? to tell the truth at this point i have no clue i don't really understand the situation and whats going on but from what iv read i think she should leave him the relationship has clearly run its course she said she is not a nice person and she is willing to sacrifice herself to get back to that point of happiness i would never want to be with someone who makes me not want to care about myself before you can really be happy and love someone you have to love yourself . and i don't want to jump to conclusions but i think one of them is in trouble with the law. then he says i don't want you to do it if you don't want to who wants to take the blame for some one else but i don't know the situation because i'm not allowed to google there's just to many things i'm in the dark about . it was hard butt i say they should go their separate ways if she wants do whatever she wants to do which sounds like jeopardizing herself to rekindle a love that has fizzled out maybe its time to call it quits but the question is not should she stay in the relationship its will she and i think she will shes willing to sacrifice herself for him shes not just gonna walk away from a love that intense i have to find out more but i don't think i trust him When have you made a important choice to stay in a relationship or leave a relationship -- OR -- stay or leave a difficult situation? About two and a half years ago i was in this super intense relationship with this guy we where always together we worked together we spent all our time together i can honestly say he was my addiction it took me o long time years to see that this relationship was toxic staying cooped up in the house not meeting his family after three years being dumped constantly and not opening up to the fact i had a daughter see he had no children which freaked him out so i kind of kept her distant. The straw that broke the camels back was four days before my birthday he broke up with me again and in text message after three years of his games and i knew he game well. the routine was breakup with me fake enjoy life without me then come back with the i'm sorry's and i love yous it was like a broken record and i kept hitting play see but this time was different i was so fed up and confused who dumps somebody four days before their birthday. me and my best friend had a trip booked to cancun in two days i was so depressed and i wasn't going to let him get that satisfaction so i wiped the tears from my face stuffed me over sized suit case till it could no longer zipper and i went on my trip and had a ball and when i got home a couple weeks went by and just like clock work he calls but this time was different this time i decided i deserved better so i decided to reach out to my best friend he'd been in love with me since we where twelve a line i could never bring myself to cross until then he was the best person i knew i was just so tired of being hurt and all the games and my best friend i knew i could never hurt him and i knew that was stronger than any toxic hold my ex still had over me so two years later were still together we have a beautiful daughter and i'm happy.

My answer is no i can only base my answer off how i would feel and the fact that i would want to know. Wang and her family kept a huge secret from her grandmother and i think they all underestimated her and her strength if they would of told her she could of did things she always wanted to do like a bucket list instead of not knowing and living the remainder of her life like there was a tomorrow wasting time when when it was secretly running out. i understand she had been previously diagnosed with a life threatening disease get her breast removed and hide it for nine years and go on with your life as a survivor just to die and not even see it coming just seems cruel. I think her continued life after the diagnoses could of had something to to with a lot of things it could of really been the medicine it could of been her going to the temple or even her daily video calls with Wang whatever the reason shes stronger than her family knew and i think she could of handled the truth and the outcome would of been the same but to keep a secret of this magnitude secret especially from the person it would effect the most is wrong the whole family got to say their goodbyes but deprived their grandmother of that opportunity she cant give her last words of wisdom her last hug get all the secrets off her chest because apparently this family has a lot i just believe she should have a say on how her finale days are spent weather she has three month three years or three hours its her time!.
When have you made an important choice to tell someone a difficult truth or you made an important choice to tell a lie that had a major impact on you and/or someone else? I"m sure by now many of you know i have two daughters a eight year old Charm and a almost one year old Faith. My oldest daughter Charm her father is very absent disappears for months at a time doesn't call and just pops in and out her life whenever he feels to the point my daughter no longer recognizes his voice. The problem i have is i believe a child should have stability parents who are there and that they can depend on i received a phone call after months of no communication saying my daughters father is in prison no i don't feel sorry for him and no i don't think its a good enough reason to miss months of communication with your child and me being a parent i don't want to expose my daughter to certain things so i did not tell her her father was in jail and if she happens to ask which is a rare occasion i tell her he has to work and on her birthday which was a week ago she asked him to attend her birthday party which i knew was impossible i let her wait a little while then i received a "Phone Call" saying he was stuck at work and even went as far as giving a gift that was from him. I am a strong believer of just ripping the band aid off but how do you hurt your child how do you tell them the person that's supposed to love them the most chose partying girls and basketball over their school uniform or winter jacket, Christmas,birthday the list on so for this specific topic i choose to continue to lie and protect my child because as a parent that's my only job.
when i was about eight months pregnant i decided to pick up overnight shifts i thought it would be easier shifts i am an certified nursing assistant and by working overnight i didn't have to transfer people in and out of bed and the residents mostly slept all night. what i didn't take into consideration was if we were short which we were so this meant now instead of about thirteen residents to take care of i now had twenty-two. it was an exhausting night especially when your pushing two hundred pounds i pushed through and said to myself i just have to get through tonight and i will slow down and stop being money hungry as the night went on i grew more and more exhausted and hungry i was not able to take a break due to backed up work . the moment i'v been waiting for was slowly approaching seven a.m it was almost over my swollen feet were killing me my boobs were throbbing but it was almost over. its now around six-thirty a.m and i am finishing up my work when i hear a knock on the door its my supervisor she say they had to many call outs i am mandated. all i could think was how i'v been here four years i have seniority over at least five people here what the supervisor said was two girls did a double and one left her other job to be there. I know what your thinking it still doesn't add up so i said no i will not stay i am eight months pregnant and i have to get home and get my daughter to school i was fully prepared to leave a lose my job which the supervisor said it would be job abandonment i was in tears i did not have another eight hours to give morning shift was overwhelming on top of that i never worked it this was my night job.i refused i will not be taken advantage of i said no i am going home so you can find somebody else or you can work short the director of nursing called and said if i leave i would be fired and they would come after my license i knew it didn't sound right i was scared not just for my job but for my unborn child. I did the only thing i could think of i threw some water on the floor dripped water down my legs grabbed my belly and screamed" she's coming"" shes coming". I know what your thinking i took the cowards way out but my only two options was loose my job or or jeopardize my child so i chose option three. when the system works you you work the system.
Hello in today's post i will be be discussing my reading of My Name is Margaret by the great Maya Angelou a strong African American woman who changed the way people think and see African Americans not with violence but with words. In this story Margaret fought for the respect she deserves knowing the consequences for her action she stood up for herself. Margaret was just a little black girl that started out with no voice working in a white women's kitchen afraid to stand up for herself and once the one thing that was her was in jeopardy something had to be done.
in this blog post we will be discussing the question of Did You Agree with Margaret's choice to break the casserole dish and two green cups ?. I have to say this reading of My Name Is Margaret really was an eye opener reading about what was going on from the main point of view and after reading it i have to say i completely agree with Margaret. Margaret was fed up and could not take being mistreated any longer. Not only was Margaret ran ragged from back door to back door and the one thing i would think was yours to own rich,poor,negro,or white was your name and Ms.Viola was trying to take even that away erase who she was and replace her with an imitation finishing school robot who is trained not to speak not to think and to do as she is told out of fear for her life and to make things worse she had to look at Glory day after day in fear of turning into her losing her name being looked down on waled all over so yes i agree with Margaret breaking the casserole dish and two cups and frankly i think she should of broke a chair on the way out. one thing i did not agree with is glory should not have took that shard of glass to the ear they are in the same boat fighting the same fight but that cut was a small price to pay for Hallelujah to get her name back and i bet Ms.Viola will think twice before renaming another human being and i can tell you one thing her name will forever be remembered in that household weather its the maids or a bunch of miserable middle aged gossiping house wives and to top it all off after being restricted to the back door when she felt her most powerful she stormed out that front door head head high and left the front door open for all the nosey neighbors to see that's right Ms.Viola close your own damn door. so this is just a quote i came across that really stuck out i hope you enjoy www.azquotes.com/quote/483438 Hello my name Sharmayne Williams and on this blog post I have chosen three Quotes from different authors and also some of my own hope you enjoy.
QUOTE1 He doesn't test his words by a rule book, but by life. He uses language to reveal the truth to himself so that he can tell it to others. (DON MURRAY) QUOTE2 When you are talking he isn't writing. And you don't learn the process by talking about it, but by doing it. Next by placing the opportunity for discovery in your students hands. when you give him an assignment you tell him what to say and how to say it, and thereby cheat your student of the opportunity to learn the process of discovery we call learning (DON MURRAY) QUOTE3 There are no rules, no absolutes, just alternatives. What works one time may not another. ALL Writing is experimental. (DON MURRAY) QUOTE4 When you ask god into your life, you think he or she is going to come into your psychic house, look around, and see that you need just a new floor or better furniture and that everything needs just a little cleaning- and so you go along for the first six months thinking how nice life is now that god is there. then you look out the window one day and see that there's a wrecking ball outside. it turns out got actually thinks your whole foundation is shot and your going to have to start over from scratch. (MARIANNE WILLIAMSON) QUOTE5 The truth is a hard apple to catch and it is a hard apple to throw. I know what a painful feeling it is when you've been working on something forever, and it feels done, and you give your story to someone you hope will validate this and that person tells you it still needs more work. (DONALD BARTHELME'S) QUOTE6 Writing a novel is like driving a car at night. you can see only as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way". You don't have to see where you are going, you don't have to see your destination or everything you will pass along the way. You just have to see two or three feet ahead of you (E.L DOCTOROW) QUOTE7 In an unmoored life like mine, sleep and hunger and work arrange themselves to suit themselves, without consulting me. I'm just as glade they haven't consulted me about the tiresome details. (KURT VONNEGUT) QUOTE8 I write in the morning and then go home about midday and take a shower, because writing, as you know, is very hard work, so you have to do a double ablution. then I go out and shop -I'm a serious cook- and pretend to be normal. I play sane - Good morning! Fine, thank you. And you. And I go home (MAYA ANGELOU) QUOTE9 A writer who waits for ideal conditions under which to work will die without putting a word on paper. (E.B WHITE) and now I will provide three of my own QUOTES QUOTE1 There is no such thing as perfection so just find somewhere to start and see where it takes you.
