change of scenery that such an investment would bring, but what if I am
dead one year from now. Will I have wasted my present life worrying about
how happy and successful I can make my future?
As you can tell I am overflowing with worries and questions. In a
way I almost wish I had the identity staus of forclosure pushed on me so
that my future is already planned for me and I could focus on one day at a
time. Then my egotism strikes again and I think to myself " .....

.... things than they already know how to do. And to do all of these
new jobs they are all going to have to be trained in some manner or another.
Then they are going to have to be able to train others on how to do these
new positions.
Management executives are now pushing for more effective training,
by budgeting for it and asking for progress reports. These companies that
are really serious about training spent about 30% of their training budget

Jonathan Edward's "Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God"
.... attempts to prove the basis of his application. "Cut it down, why
cumbereth it in the ground?", Luke 13:7, is used by Edwards to illustrate
God's justifiably immediate destruction of those guilty of sin. Absent
from his selection is any mention of the moderation and patience that
continues in Luke 13:8-9: "let it alone this year also, until I dig around
it and fertilize it. And if it bears fruit, well." By omitting these v
erses of scripture, Edwards hopes to move his audience by his calling

Review Of The Odyssey
.... reader a great feeling of elation that the
suitors who are terrorizing the house of Odysseus. A quote that really
gives a good idea of the overall impact and resolution that this passage
gives is as follows “You yellow dogs, you thought I'd never make it home
from the land of Troy. You took my house to plunder, twisted my maids to
serve your beds. You dared bid for my wife while I was still alive.
Contempt was all you had for the gods who rule wide heaven, contempt for
what men say of you hereafter. .....

Self-Reliance
.... often look at them self as
a ship moving around in an ocean of expendable resources. I think that
someone who is self reliant knows how to use the resources, but also
understands and possibly respects them making for a more harmonious
existence.
This is all highly objective in nature, and considering it's three am I
could very well think differently about this entire issue when I actually
go to bed and wake up. Philosophy is a really moody thing. It can be
interpreted a hundred different ways depe .....

The Odyssey: Theme Of Homecoming And Reunion
.... by which men are judged to be the Shepherd or the wolf. It is
greed and folly, which are the marks of impious men, men who engage in
improper feasting. Worse still are those who give into temptation after
long suffering, for it denies them the knowledge of the good; namely virtue.
Of improper feasting there are numerous examples, from the
gluttonous behavior of the suitors and the cannibalism of the Kyklops, to
Odysseus' own shipmates who kill and feast on the cattle of Lord Helios,
the Sun. As .....

"The Journey Through The Twelve Forests" And "The Bhagavad Gita": The Vaishnava Community
.... other
hand, “The Journey” tells of one mans real life experience of the
pilgrimage known as the Ban-Yatra. It tells a slightly more true to life
story that has been carried out since the 16th century.
If one were to only read the Gita, they might assume it to be
nothing more than a fairy tale passed down from many generations that told
of a greater being, Vishnu, whose job was to “deliver the holy, destroy the
sin of the sinner, and establish righteousness”(50). It tells how in order
to achieve moksha .....

Feral Children
.... India, who were dug out of a wolf den by an Anglican
missionary, the Reverend J.A.L. Singh, in 1920. Singh claimed that he
personally rescued the children after having seen them living with the
wolves. Although the children developed some social skills and the
rudiments of language, they never became completely normal, and they died
young. There is, however, no way of knowing to what extend their
limitations were a result of cultural deprivation.

gods to help her, but no one came.
The only ones who heard her pleas were Hecate, goddess of the moon

Objectivism And The Work Of Ayn Rand
.... She believe that man (sic) is a certain type of
being: a rational animal. Man is the only form of being which must
actually think in order to survive. This, to her, implies that it is
RIGHT for man to think. The good is that which is useful to and promotes
life. The life in question is ones own life. However, one doesn't have
the responsibility for the lives of others, except in a negative sense..
not to interfere with the rights of others to pursue their own life.
