Fatherless Love

The vision of my Fatherless Love have became more and more of a blur to my past childhood memories of not having him there in my life as a young girl. This is my life not a story I always wanted to be daddy’s girl growing up. Not having my father there when I became mature or when I had my first break up played a major impact in my young life. ‘‘Dance With My Father’’ by Luther Vandross is a song that is very dear to me as he sings the lyrics to this song. Every time that I listened to this song thought always crossed my mind of having memory of a father and daughter dancing together and cherishing their moment together this is something that I long for from my father. Even though my father was not there to see the goreguerous young lady that I become today that are filled with goals and ambitious even self confidence. I’m no longer hurt or feel abandoned by not having him in my life. It’s crazy because I never pictured myself when I was younger that I would be a strong independent young adult that I am today and to have so much more to look for did not come see for three days. The day that I was brought into this world my father was nowhere in sight or could not be found for. You would think that the moment of a new life is being brought into the world that it would be a day to be cherished by my father. The only two things that come to my mind when I think of him is a NO GOOD MAN. How is it that my father could help bring a child into the world, but couldn’t be there to see that a precious life is born or to bond with me as a young girl and to be here for the best days to come ? As the years passed and I matured and grew up and I longed for a father to show me how I should be treated by a man and I also wanted the nights where I could sit and talk to him. Little did my father know I would open up my diary and write about him or the lonely nights, I would pray

    In the essay “ Expertise Dissected,” Daniel J. Levitin believes that barely anyone can become an expert in their area without continuos practice. Moreover, he mentions that although talent is a major factor that people acquire skills more rapidly than others, with only talent, one cannot achieve success in that area. Finally, Levitin emphasizes that practice is the most essential factor leading to a significant achievement. From my point of view, I totally agree with Levitins’ opinions. Based on my life experience and the book I read, I think his points are totally correct. All in all, practice is the most important foundation for success.…

    The deaf community believes a deaf person's ability to live a full and meaningful life is not compromised by his or her deafness, so the suggestion that cochlear implants provide advantages over a deaf lifestyle is shortsighted and insensitive. Many deaf people deal very well with their deafness, learning sign language and lip reading and adapting their work and home environments to accommodate their loss of hearing. Another controversy surrounding cochlear implants and the deaf community is the safety and effectiveness of the procedure. Cochlear implants may be viewed as disrespectful and insulting, since the medical community views deafness as a handicap which must be treated or corrected. Most people do not want to have cochlear implants they are afraid of hearing the world around them. Most of the time these controversial issues build up when the person is an adult and has spent most of their time being deaf and now have all those concerns about the cochlear implants.…

    As children we look up to our parents as role models, it is universal that we have the need to have them in our lives, to feel loved by them. They are the people who should be responsible for our upbringing and in molding the way we are to be as adults. The role of a parent is not just providing food and shelter but also providing a good example. Unfortunately, this does not always happen. There are parents who for one reason or another are not there for their children, parents who do not set the right example to their kids. In the story "Reunion" by John Cheever we see a perfect example of how a father does not step up to his role as a parent and the effect it has on his son. We see the need of a son for a ‘father'. We see the disappointment but we also see the growth of a son through his father's flaws.…

    Many shows or movies that society watches, can harm the youth in a negative way. The media can come from a variety of entertainment like Reality shows, cartoons, and music videos. The media has a lot to do with this because it is promoting violence and harmful things that can corrupt a youths mind. The media can have a negative impact that will teach them to use profanity, drugs, sex, crimes and disrespecting their parents. Not only can it bring a negative impact, but also portray a negative image of African American males and females. The media now can be prejudice to African American’s in ways that will make them look like thugs, lazy, and just violent people. Living in the 21st century, everything we watch or hear on TV is very different from the past. For example in the 1950-1970’s, profanity couldn’t be used to show express laughter or drama, 2000-2012 has a lot of profanity being used. The negative influence that television brings on society is so outrages that people will try to live their life as a celebrity. Some may try to carry themselves in an erratically behavior, which will have them following in the wrong footsteps. To see the youth fall under the influence to follow many rappers, celebrities, or reality stars that are portraying a negative impact. The purpose for choosing this topic is to show and state how the media affects the society and youth. The media haves a negative impact to our society by promoting a lot of things that should not be shown or heard. I’m Going deeper on this research to see how the society is being influence by the negative events that is going on around the world. I feel that the media now can show a lot of things that can really prevent others from being successful. So the main question will be, why this topic is important? This topic is very important because everything we watch is now making other people stereotype each other, copy what they see and will have our youth confuse on what is right and wrong.…

    In everyone’s life, there are people. Some of these people walk in our lives for a second, only to run right out. While others walk in and leave a mark on our hearts. Sometimes this mark only lasts for a little while and then slowly fades away, but other times, this mark lasts for a lifetime. There is one man in my life who has made a distinct mark on my heart -- a mark that was created the first time he picked me up and held me in his arms. This mark has lasted ever since then.

    What is love? When someone tells you that they love you, how are you supposed to respond? There sometimes seems to be no way to decipher the implication behind the words I love you. When one loves someone or something, to what extent is their desire? It would be ideal if the English language could have more words for love. Love is so complicated in and of itself, that even if you were to have different words; it would still be challenging to clarify. Because the English language is lacking of distinctive nouns to describe this strong affection, it is essential to look to the Greek dictionary to find words that define the distinguishing types of love that we feel as human beings.…
