One day yusef and his brother did something very bad. Yusef had never done anything like this in his entire life. His brother was calling him names and trying to boost him up to do it. He kept on nagging yusef and saying things that was getting to yusef. Yusef finally gave in and they started walking. Yusef said to his brother i don’t think we should do this. The crowd and his brother was trying to keep him calm. They were robbing an innocent individuals house.

As they approached the porch yusef was very terrified. As they kicked the door it went Boom!!! Yusef was very clueless as he walked in. he knew his brother had done things like this so he had been use to it. This was yusefs first time doing something like this. Yusef knew that it was not the right thing to do that's why he was so

No one else in the group got caught but him not even his brother. Yusef regrets every moment of that robbery because he had never done anything like it before. Everyone in his family was disappointed in him because he is so godly and nice and just a magnificent child of GOD. in conclusion Yusef learned that the cool crowd is not always the right crowd. From here on out Yusef is affiliated with the right people and the right crowd. His brother is doing much better. All of the other boys are in jail and are living bad. GOD gave yusef and his brother a new start and a new life they learned from their mistakes and what they have done. They now play sports and are living a superb

    Krakauer wrote that Chris McCandless was, "green, and he overestimated his resilience, but was sufficiently skilled to last for sixteen weeks on a little more than his wits and ten pounds of rice"(Krakauer 182). In this quote it seems that Krakauer thought that McCandless was well equipped with his skills, so that made moderately prepared to survive in any situation. I feel that McCandless was rather prepared, yet again he never could have been fully prepared for the unexpected. My opinion is that McCandless was vaguely aware of the struggles that he would encounter in the Alaskan wilderness such as his epiphany that "happiness is only real when shared" was realized when his body was dying of starvation. I believed that he found what he was…

    As analysis is conducted into the characters of both Chief Bromden and Randle McMurphy, it is easy to conclude that both have characteristics and preform actions that can be considered heroic. Physically both Bromden and McMurphy are huge. But, unlike McMurphy, Bromden does not have the self-confidence to match his gigantic exterior. This contrast in personality is due to the idea that Bromden has constantly been maltreated for the entirety of his life. McMurphy, on the other hand, refuses to be brought down because of his indomitable spirit.…

    Nichols and May’s skills as storytellers lie in their understanding of human relationships, a mastery that is expressed in the sketch through their delivery of character. The improvisational nature of Nichols and May’s dynamic is apparent in the conversational tone of this sketch. Nichols and May play off each other well and develop the relationship between the mother and son in a short amount of time. The dysfunction of this relationship drives the scene by creating conflict, which the characters exploit to the fullest extent. For instance, the mother in the sketch begins the call normally and proceeds to guilt trip her son with hyperbolized ¬¬reactions. May’s delivery emphasizes the nagging, worrisome traits of the character. The exaggeration of her character’s dysfunction is the focus of humor in the skit. However, once the sketch breaks down to reveal the emotional truth of the characters, the growing distance in the relationship between mother and son, a sense of gravitas hits the audience and asks us to consider our the…

    I, Mattie Curtis, have already done the “unacceptable”. By hitting Rufus atop the head in order to yield his disgusting hands from touching me, I have disobeyed my master. This is not accepted in any form during this day and age. I am a Negro and Master Hawkins is obviously a white male, making him superior to me. I have set myself up for no good, having made such a rash and stupid decision. It is simply that the thought of Rufus and I together makes me utterly sick. I could never imagine being acquaintances with him, much less having a child with him! The good Lord wouldn’t want me to lose something as precious as my virginity to a man whom I am not married to. The Lord, my body, and my family are the only things I still have to myself in…

    There are a million acts of kindness each day. Some young man gives a stranger a compliment, or a teacher brightens a students morning. But, in the world we live in today, these acts are rare to come by. In this short story Thank You, Ma’am, the boy, out of mysterious luck, gets taken in by the woman whom he was trying to steal a purse from. Her actions, following the incident towards the boy, may have seemed very kind and understanding, but the boy needs a more solid way of punishment. He requires discipline that will show him that as complicated as life is, there will not always be someone for you to lean and depend on. The first and most foremost thing that would come to mind when reading this story is how caring Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones was, that she took in the boy and nurtured him; she tried to teach him between right and wrong. She gave him food, a nice conversation, and even a chance of escape, which he chose not to take, but these methods are still an immoral way of handling the situation. If a boy were to come up to an everyday woman on the streets, that victim would not be as sensitive as Mrs. Jones was to the boy she caught. To teach a young man that if you steal and you are going to get special treatment is not an effective method of punishment. First of all, the boy told Mrs. Jones that he tried to steal her purse for one reason, to buy blue suede shoes for himself. She then replies, “Well you didn’t have to snatch my pocketbook to get some blue suede shoes... You could have just asked me.” There are many faulty choices of judgments made in this comment, mainly because the outcome of the situation would almost never happen in the real world. The boy will now, after being told he should just ask for the shoes, believe that anything he ever wants will come to his possession if would just ask. To “trick” a child into being convinced that if you just ask a woman for money or anything that she will give it to you is morally…
