Time And Space Rem Sleep
1,416 wordsIn the middle of the night, I was taking a walk through the woods. I could hear owls hooting and animals scattering under leaves. From the vague sound of water trickling over rocks, I knew my destination was coming soon. As I was walking, the heel of my foot got wedged between a stump and a rock. I started to sway and my heart stopped. Slowly I could feel my body fall towards the ground. Not knowing when I would fall, where I would land, what I would fall on or what might fall on me, made my hea...

Carl Jung Lucid Dreams
1,428 words... Eve was not supposed to eat that particular piece of fruit. It was understood she should not eat it. In this situation the Forbidden Fruit was the symbol.

Repeated Three Times Hawthorne The Scarlet Letter
757 wordsHerman Melville and Nathaniel Hawthorne were contemporaries of each other. They lived very different lives, one living as a sailor for four years and the other attending an Ivy League school, yet their writing reflects a similar style, as shown in Melville's Billy Bud and Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter. Religious symbolism is found in abundance in each of the works. In Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter, life is centered around a rigid, Puritanistic structured society in which one is unabl...

This shows how people are not always going to feel guilt or remorse feelings for their actions. There are times when people are ordered to do something even when they don't want to. One mad ...
