Family and Inspiration
My theme of inspiration for this piece is my family. I choose family because family means everything to me. With out my family I don’t know where I would be. Why I choose family, as my inspiration is family is everywhere you look and everywhere you go. They may not be right there with you, but they are only a phone call away. If there is something that you need, you can always depend on someone in your family to get it for you. Family is always there when you need them to be. But, there are many in today's society that doesn't share my opionion at all. The problem in today's world is that, often people take their family for granted and they don't appreciate what they have until they lose them. We have parents that are forced to work at full time jobs just to provide for their families, and kids who feel an unnecessary sense to never listen to their parents. These two create a dire problem. One, with the parent not having enough time to spend more time with their kids, the kids feel a sense of neglect, and they often get into serious trouble. This causes a dire problem! It must be solved! But it isnt solved! but then it must be solved! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I SAY I SAY but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but butb

    Perhaps family itself was the value that we were missing the most—a sense of togetherness that would unify us much more than anything else could. Yet we never did make that connection. Instead we found it best to try and act as though we knew what a functional family was as though we were doing a bad game of Simon Says. As Gary Soto recalls from his childhood, “I tried to convince them that if we improved the way we looked we might get along better in life” (Soto, 29). That was the way my fake family was. We knew the meaning of values, but in reality we did not put them into practice, whether it be out of laziness or simple antagonism for those we may or may not have viewed as inferior to our bloodline. Seldom attention was given to the values…

    Topic Sentence: Family is a great catalyst for establishing a sense of belonging. It is where one expects to find un conditional love and support, as well as possessing a bond formed between parent and child that transcends the boundaries of hardships. However in the memoir Romulus My Father, by Arthur Golden the concept of family is complicated by the Gaita's move to Australia and Christina's mental illness. Raimond experiences a conflicting sense of belonging within his family, by finding stability and assurance in his father Romulus but a contrasting sense of instability and isolation in his relationship with his mother, Christina.…

    Since the creation of humans, the world’s inhabitants have needed human connections and family. Adam needed eve, a newborn baby needs his parents, the monster from Frankenstein by Mary Shelley (1831) needed a family, and Michael from Michael by William Wordsworth (1800) identified himself by his love for his son, Luke. The way a child grows up and the involvement of his family plays a large role in the development of character and his outlook on life. If fathers and mothers did not leave, if siblings always took care of each other, and if there was no betrayal within home life, maybe the world would look significantly different than it does today. Although human relationships in general are a vital part to life, family relationships are the…

    The stories “Drown” by Junot Diaz and “Everyday Use” by Alice Walker both are stories that touch on incredibly sensitive issues with the human condition. On one hand, you’ve got a story about a woman, Dee, consciously choosing to leave her heritage and family behind due to her lofty ideals. In the other hand, you’ve got a young male narrator who’s an impoverished Dominican boy struggling with the pressure of having to financially take care of his mother in a new country. It seems that both of these stories describe different hardships with relationships and their loved ones. However, I believe that their conflicts arise from the same root cause – adjusting to living in a new society.…

    In conclusion, I do believe that the weakening in families is one of the primary causes to America’s societal problems. Families lack discipline, parenting, communication, and so much more. The advancement of technology has damaged our focus on the meaning of enjoying a family. Laws ordain have cause a support to the injustice of children and limit the amount of discipline a child needs. There are proposals to solve these issues and strengthen families so that the issues America faces today can decrease due the stability of families.…
