Robert Frost The Road Not Taken
710 words
The Road Not Taken is perhaps one of Robert
Frost's most famous poems. This poem deals with
the choices you have to make in life. Whether it's
what to wear in the morning or what to do with
your life, everyone makes choices. When you look
at this poem carefully, you realize Robert Frost
is choosing much more than what road to walk down.
He is making a lifelong decision. One of the
reasons I am drawn to this poem is the imagery. A
forest is a very quiet place that suits this poem
well. Being in a...

Glass Doors Dimensional Space

It was the day of April 13, 2000. I woke up at
exactly 12 oclock because my boyfriend was to pick
me up at 1 like we planned the night before. The
day looked quite nice, but I was in a fowl mood. I
got into a car accident the night before and had a
huge argument with my parents about the car. I
finally dragged myself into the shower and got
ready in half an hour. Then I went downstairs, sat
on my couch, and repeatedly told myself the day
would hopefully turn out better than last night.

Dining Room Living Room

Traveling up a long gravel driveway, there are
sights to see such as trees bigger than any that
is usually seen in a new town. A big barn swings,
and a little old lady so small the littlest bit of
wind could knock her over. Looking around,
watching the stillness in the air, and the warm
tenderness of feeling welcome makes a place like
this worth the hour drive. The houses that
neighbor are a couple acres away, but neighbors
are best friends, practically family. To the back
and sides of the house...

As the unfriendly, ice-cold wind travelled
precipitously over the neglected heath, I made my
first brave step towards the enormous entrance
leading into the settlement of those abandoned
souls. While I continued at a steady pace towards
the screeching, corroded gateway I felt the
irregular and jagged rocks as they were slowing me
from reaching up to the gate. The closer I seemed
to get towards the overpowering, fully grown
gateway the darker the area became with the
stealthily moving shadows. Wh...

Human Evolution: the water theory. Elaine Morgan
The crucial question about human evolution is why
humans differ so strikingly from the African apes
despite their close genetic relationship. Most
Darwinists would agree that such differences are
usually attributable to differing environmental
pressures; and hence that our ancestors at some
stage probably occupied a significantly different
habitat from the ancestor of the gorilla and the
chimpanzee. For the last half-century it has been
