First Two Books Important Themes
579 words
When I finished FTA I was of course stunned by the
death of Catherine and the baby and Henry's sudden
solitude. "What happens now?" I felt, as I so
often do when I finish a book that I want to go on
forever. This is infinitely more difficult with a
book that has no conclusion, and FTA leaves a
reader not only emotionally exhausted but also
just as alone as Henry and with nowhere to go. The
entire work was aware of where it was going and
what was going to happen next, and then to stop
the way it ...

Vice Versa Real World
1,036 words
Once in a person's lifetime, everyone finds this
one perfect person whom they fall hopelessly in
love with and live happily ever after. That is a
mere fallacy, in the real world, this simply does
not happen. Yes, people do have common interests
and therefore develop romantic involvement, but it
is basic common sense that these relationships
have a life span and simply cannot last. Real life
relationships are definitely more like "The Real
World" rather than "Romeo and Juliet." Romanticism
is won...

Jane Eyre A Gothic Novel
591 words
Jane Eyre, written by Charlotte Bront, is
considered by many to be a gothic novel. The use
of supernatural incidents, architecture, and a
desolate setting helped to decide this
classification for Jane Eyre. Many cases exhibited
the use of supernatural occurrences. For example,
when Jane Eyre was ten years old, she was locked
in a room called the Red Room for misbehaving. In
this room, it was written that her uncle passed
away there. Because of being told this, Jane Eyre
believed that the light s...

Back In Time Speed Of Light
829 words
Often when I look at the stars when I'm in bed at
night I shudder to think of my insignificance in
the immensity of the Universe. The distances in
the Universe are inconceivably huge, so we measure
them in light-minutes or light years. A light
minute is the distance light travels in one
minute, and that's a long way, because light
travels through space at 300, 000 km a second. So
in a minute it would travel 18, 000, 000 km. The
distance of the Sun from the earth is about eight
light-minutes whic...

Grown Son Experience Growth Time

From time to time I pause and remember one who
some years ago emptied my nest as he left home to
begin his transition from being my little boy to
becoming a man. From Oklahoma to Alaska, there is,
today, quite a span of geographic distance between
us. Although I do miss him, I feel, with his work
and family commitments, a respect for him, when he
chooses to devote his time to those near and dear
to him. I am grateful for the words in

Special Theory Of Relativity Force Of Gravity
454 words
According to Einstein's Special Theory of
Relativity, light can be bent. This is a concept
that seems to contradict the well-known law that
states that all light travels in a straight line.
But they do not contradict each other. Light does
travel in a straight line; only the space-time
continuum bends around it causing it to change
direction. This bend or warp in the space-time
continuum is a result of the presence of mass,
also known as gravity. Gravity is a force that is
always present, always...
