Pages 3
When it all first started. The giver gave me special memories of love, strength,sadness and i realized everything was sameness. But now i'm here. Out of my community. In the wild with all the memories back to to people. I'm in a christmas hut in the middle of the soft snowy mountains with light shining everywhere.

“Gabe wake up where here in safety” jonas whispered in a nice and slow voice. Gabe is half asleep and half awake trying to wake up gently and slowly. All of a sudden some kind of alarm starts to ring. Gabe starts to cry to the top of his lungs. Jonas knew gabe was going to calm down so he started searching for the beeping object. After all of the hiking and walking he didn't realize the beeping noise was in his pockets. He found …show more content…
First things he did is he went to his family's house.Lily saw me as she can’t believe it. After all each person who goes to elsewhere has their ceremony of release. “Jonas? JONAS!!!” Lily screamed and screamed. Mom
And dad came downstairs and prayed to god thanks to see me.”mom, dad i need to go, there will be an assembly later today.” Jonas said as he waved and left to see the giver. He went far off to the little house and this time the door was wide open. Not a sound since usually the giver plays music.”The giver?.....AHH!”.The giver was walking from the back door. “You scared me giver” said jonas in a terrifying voice. “Let's hurry the assembly is in 5 minutes” the giver said.
“Yeah we should better hurry.” replied Jonas.They walked to where the ceremony is held.”so..um where are the Elders?” Jonas asked in confusion.”Most of them are….gone, you know. The only Elder alive is the Chief Elder. She is not in good shape though. After you past the barrier she, got possessed by something.”The giver said without worrying too much. “Oh um...thats quite bad. We should hurry!”. They walked where the ceremony is held. Everyone there just in time for the teaching to keep the memories.*BANG*,The whole place shook and pieces of the building started to fall.”What’s going on??” Jonas asked. Everyone was fine until

...Kiyosaki was taught that financial intelligence is the way to be rich. People today are desire money and are afraid of not having money; they spend their lives working for money.

He wanted to be able to go where he wanted to go, do the things he wanted to do, to not have anything holding him down, and that is why he strived to become “rich”. This book is for of guide lines that Kiyosaki used or experienced and he wants others to learn from. The first chapter Rich Dad Poor Dad is where Kiyosaki introduces his two fathers. He says, “one was highly educated and intelligent;… [and the other] never finished the eighth grade.” Both his fathers were strong and influential, and both were successful in their careers; but one struggled financially all his life and the other became one of the richest men in Hawaii. Kiyosaki was glad to have two fathers to learn from learned from. He was able to see the point of view of both the poor and the rich. Even though the time he started learning from them when he was nine years-old the rich dad was not yet rich and the poor dad not yet poor. At the age of nine Kiyosaki started listening to his rich dad. Rich dad taught six main lessons. The second chapter was the first lesson, The Rich Don’t Work for Money. Kiyosaki asked both dads if they could teach him how to get rich. Poor dad, Kiyosaki’s dad, responded that you need to make...

Heaven Stoops to Virtue

...Heaven Stoops to Virtue Many scholars have viewed the disputations in Milton's Comus as insertions which interrupt the flow of dramatic action and musical spectacle. However, since "each episode of Comus reenacts the central themes and illuminates the poetic process in a fashion characteristic of masques and allegorical poetry" (Swaim 187), we can ask whether or not the "central themes" are enunciated explicitly. They are stated quite clearly, I believe, in the disputations. Far from being digressions, the two disputations provide meaning to the action of the masque, and a proper understanding of their relation to the whole work will provide a greater appreciation of Comus. The second debate, between the Lady and Comus, generally receives the most attention, so I will look at it first. A.E. Dyson emphasizes the importance of this debate in understanding the rest of the masque: "The fact that in dramatic terms Comus's view, though plausible, is shown to be false, and the Lady's view, though austere, to be true, is central to the poem's meaning, and what it is 'really about' ... The interpretation of Comus centres upon what we make of the case between Comus and the Lady" (89-90). The subject of their debate is what Marjorie Nicolson calls "the Appeal to Nature for Standards" (78). Comus argues that nature's bounties urge us to revel in their pleasures, and that our refusal to do so displeases the creator who provided Nature for this very purpose, and additionally...

Beowulf

...Beowulf in Old English [ˈbeːo̯wʊlf] or [ˈbeːəwʊlf]) is the conventional title[note 1] of an Old English heroic epic poem consisting of 3182 alliterative long lines, set in Scandinavia, commonly cited as one of the most important works of Anglo-Saxon literature. It survives in a single manuscript known as the Nowell Codex. Its composition by an anonymous Anglo-Saxon poet[note 2] is dated between the 8th[1][2] and the early 11th century.[3] In 1731, the manuscript was badly damaged by a fire that swept through a building housing a collection of Medieval manuscripts assembled by Sir Robert Bruce Cotton. The poem fell into obscurity for decades, and its existence did not become widely known again until it was printed in 1815 in an edition prepared by the Icelandic-Danish scholar Grímur Jónsson Thorkelin.[4] In the poem, Beowulf, a hero of the Geats in Scandinavia, comes to the help of Hroðgar, the king of the Danes, whose mead hall (in Heorot) has been under attack by a monster known as Grendel. After Beowulf slays him, Grendel's mother attacks the hall and is then also defeated. Victorious, Beowulf goes home to Geatland in Sweden and later becomes king of the Geats. After a period of fifty years has passed, Beowulf defeats a dragon, but is fatally wounded in the battle. After his death, his attendants bury him in a tumulus, a burial mound, in Geatland. Story The main protagonist, Beowulf, a hero of the Geats, comes to the aid of Hroðgar, the king of the Danes, whose great...
