Forest Is Set Ablaze Forest Is Set Revolution
1,762 words
Revolutionists are judged by their beliefs and not
mine. Their ideas are the revolution, and their
belief in them- the justification and proof
thereof. In this case, I am revolutionary because
I feel and believe so. I am enlightening at least
someone (myself, if not others) by my ideas due to
my personal belief and application of them.
Revolution in and of itself is simply a mere
spark, an idea that is relative to the great

a fearful, spine-chilling mood when characters

Helsing pay the first visit to Lucy's tomb. In
this scene Stoker uses Gothic descriptions and
strong words to set the tone. W...

Wind Blew Cool Water Life

Water, the median of life. Growing up in a small
town nestled tightly in the arms of the wasatch
front, I learned early the importance of nature.
There was a fine line drawn between religion and
the outdoors, and the quest of my life was to
determine an appropriate balance. Water,
signifying the line between the spiritual and
physical, played an important role in my secular

My 3 rd grade teacher was a very caring woman. I
