Personal Narrative: My View Of The Social Contract
I view the social contract similarly to United States citizenship. If someone is born on US soil than they are legal a US citizen. Most everyone is born into the social contract but if someone does not want to live in a society then they can go into wild and avoid the social contract. I also believe most people agree to the social contract when they are adults because it is the better to live in a civil society than in the

    Personal Narrative: My Personal Values

    The values that I hold most deeply are friendships, family, and happiness. Values are things that are important in the way I live and work and I believe all of these things play a major role in my life. Since I was a little kid, my values have changed tremendously. Back then, my values would've been playtime, mac & cheese, and chicken nuggets. I believe values mature as you grow and mine definatly did. For example, when I was younger I remember being friends with everyone, but now I only have a select number of friends. This represents values to me. My values inform my actions by them always being my first thought while making a decision. They always play a role in my…

    Personal Narrative: My Political Perspective

    My political viewpoint has changed dramatically since I was first introduced to politics. I come from a democratic family, where it is strongly believed that it is the government’s responsibility to care for all people and that the government knows what is best for all people. Every voting season, my parents vote for a democratic president and explain to me the reasoning behind their decision. It was not until I was in the tenth grade that I realized that I did not hold the same political beliefs as my parents. After taking several political quizzes and extensively researching the bevy of political parties, I now know that I am an independent. What is an independent? An independent is an individual politician not affiliated to any political…

    Personal Narrative: The Progressive Tradition

    Even generations ago, my family members realized how difficult it was to fit in time to see distant family members. That’s why since my great grandmother was around, we’ve spent one day during the holiday season participating in what we call The Progressive. As the tradition goes, each family is required to prepare one part of the traditional five course meal, the assignment of which rotates between the families each year. Each family prepares their part of the meal and hosts it at their home, allowing the entire family to visit everyone’s home and “progress” through one giant five course meal throughout the course of the day. It has, without a doubt, provided some of my family’s favorite stories throughout the years while allowing us to reflect on the year’s past with each other. Although it has been around since my grandparents were children, it has changed drastically since it’s inception those many years ago.…

    Personal Narrative: What Makes Us Human

    At times I feel as though I'm trying and failing to be a human being. But what makes us human? I feel although I'm a human-shaped shell made out of pieces of things I find interesting. Instead of a real identity. Just layers of things that I hope will make me different from others. But am I? We rely so much on the opinion of others. But why? Why do we crave acceptance of others? If people were to look closely, they'd notice there really isn't anything there.Just a mess of a person trying to find their ‘place in the world. All we want is to be remembered. Just to prove we are something , we where something. How will I be remembered? Or will I fade into oblivion? Is this the meaning of life? To spend it hoping we have some significance in this…

    Personal Narrative: My Voluntary Work

    As the single child in a family with working parents, I spent the most time of my childhood living and hanging around with my dog. This experience might be one of the reasons that I am very compassionate to animals and sensitive to people’s needs. My voluntary work is in a welfare house called Alenah's home. I love working there because I like seeing the smile face of the children there – even some autism babies don’t smile facially, I believe they can feel the love when being caressed softly.…

    Personal Narrative: The True American Dream

    "Hard work, honesty, risk, and competition all must happen for the American Dream of wealth, marriage and family, home and prosperity, and social mobility to become reality." This is what we as Americans have ingrained in our heads as how to become happy. The American Dream is not a set rule of guidelines that guarantees success when attempted. It is not 2+2=4. There are numerous books in the world today "spilling the secret to success". They are however just a regurgitation of how one person became successful. To truly become successful, one needs the true American Dream, not some sweeping generalization that seems to have filled everyones minds. The True American Dream is much more simple, and still, does not have a guaranteed product…

    Personal Narrative: The Struggle Of Social Life

    Samantha was my savior and protector till the struggle of social life took over our compact minds. I remember when Samantha and I first met in Kindergarten; I had just back to Fort Hood from Germany and hardly spoke English. I was the middle of the school year, kids had just come back from winter break and everybody knew each other by then but me. My new teacher had seated me next to Samantha and Sam welcomed me warmly. Sam would help me with assignments and talking to other kids and stood up for me against cruel kids when no one else would from kindergarten to third grade. I saw her as not only my best friend, but also my hero. However, Sam became more distant throughout the years and started talking to me less, but I didn't think anything…

    John Mills The Social Contract

    Mills says, “the "social contract" is actually several contracts in one” (pg. 9) Being able to understand the concept of morality is very important for everyone to fully understand the purpose of “the social contract”. Mills uses a powerful quote in the beginning of the book, it says “When white people say "Justice," they mean "Just us." by black American folk aphorism. The social contract was constructed with the idea of equality. According to Hobbes, father of the social contract, it is the lives of people in the state of nature without laws to regulate them. “The moral contract, on the other hand, is the foundation of the moral code established for the society by which the citizens are supposed to regulate their behavior.” (pg. 10) Society…
