Women provided their services by contributing in any way possible to the solders and the war. Abigail Adams was addressed as the first lady because she started a change that would affect all women in America. “As the colonial fight for independence from the mother country ensued, Abigail Adams was appointed by the Massachusetts Colony General Court in 1775, along with Mercy Warren and the governor's wife Hannah Winthrop to question their fellow Massachusetts women who were charged by their word or action of remaining loyal to the British crown and working against the independence movement” ("First Lady Biography: Abigail Adams", n.d.). As Abagail stood by her husband trying to ensure all women were loyal to the solders other women also put forth efforts to help with the war. Women had fundraisers to produce money so solders could have new shirts and uniforms. The revolutionary war helped not only the fight against England but women in the new world.

Everything that the women gathered either help towards bullets, clothes, food, and medical supplies. Clothes were...

...Environment and Preservation Many grounds all over the world have been destroyed many ways starting from cleaning up the forest where animals live and survive in the forest. The forest is beauties of nature where the oxygen flows through the big trees and makes an atmosphere breathe the fresh air of that oxygen. Trees are being taken from the root of the ground, so it can no longer grow and replace that area with a business company or just plain empty. People ask themselves why is it that the grounds are being torned down but yet not being used. These and many related questions remain in silence of a major concern in the present day world. Christians try to find the ethics which relies on faith, tolerance, and care. The grounds in the forest where its peaceful and pleasant doesn’t ever seem that some company will one day come and tear the grounds and let it show empty. It says in Psalm 1:3; He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all he does, he prospers. (KJ VERSION). “Stop the Catastrophe.” Prentice Hall Reference Guide states Which in the opinion of Christians, yes, stop the catastrophe in tearing down so many trees and not let the oxygen continue to flow as it should. There are properties that are being invaded by City Departments where they want to expand the streets of all the subdivision. Make the streets into the business road and make more money to collect more taxes in the poor...

...Adam From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about the figure from Abrahamic religions. For the given name, see Adam (given name). For other uses, see Adam (disambiguation). See also: Adam and Eve Adam Hands of God and Adam.jpg Detail from Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam, Sistine Chapel ceiling Spouse(s) Eve Lilith (folklore) Children Cain Abel Seth Creation of Adam, Michelangelo Adam (Hebrew: אָדָם) is a figure from the Book of Genesis, also mentioned in the New Testament, the Quran, the Book of Mormon, and the Book of Iqan. According to Womack's creation myth[1] of Abrahamic religions, and also according to the Holy Bible, he is the first human. In the Genesis creation narratives, he was created by Yahweh-Elohim ("Yahweh-God", the god of Israel), though the term "adam" can refer to both the first individual person, as well as to the general creation of humankind. Christian churches differ on how they view Adam's subsequent behavior of disobeying God (often called the Fall of man), and to the consequences that those actions had on the rest of humanity. Christian and Jewish teachings sometimes hold Adam and Eve (the first woman) to a different level of responsibility for the Fall, though Islamic teaching holds both equally responsible. In addition, Islam holds that Adam was eventually forgiven, while Christianity holds that redemption occurred only later through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Bahá'í Faith, Islam and some Christian denominations...

...EVAN 101-002 29 October 2013 Book Review Reflection Paper Marvelously Made written by Monica Rose Brennan was such a simplest wonderful book about the basic principles in a little more depth of the bible and God’s word and truths. The overall main focus was of what God viewed women to be in society and how he specifically made us women to all be marvelously made in his image. I highly enjoyed reading Dr. Breenan’s book and learning more in depth of God’s word and truths. The first story talked about in the book was of when Brennan was a child. She talked about how us girls like to make little pretend worlds. Where we wont have any pain, rejections, suffering, hate, that others, and other things along those lines will always love us. She said how little girls do that but sometimes we even catch ourselves today living in a world we created to stay happy and away from the negative in life. Body image was also talked about in the book. Brennan struggled with anorexia when she was just in the seventh grade. Without knowing the true truths of how God created each of us to be ,we can all get caught up with our body image. If we do not truly believe that we are each created from God then we can get so idolized of how we look making ourselves unhappy. The book talked about how coming to God and finding your true identity in Christ will fill that need of wanting how your body should be and accepting how God made you and that you are beautiful in his eyes. That is where the...

...becomes new again. Another example from the poem that shows gold as a symbol is “Nothing gold can stay.” The speaker means that the newness and youth of nature does not stay forever. This is quite disappointing and bittersweet because the speaker is implying that everything of value in life somehow fades away eventually. After spring and summer are over, fall and winter return once more. Winter, which is the opposite of spring and summer, represents death and gloominess. Finally, Eden is a symbol that Frost uses to develop and establish the passage further. In the sixth and seventh line of the poem, the speaker says “So Eden sank to grief/ so dawn goes down to day”. Eden symbolizes the Garden of Eden where everything is perfect and pleasant for Adam and Eve until they eat an apple off of the only tree they weren’t supposed to. This also shows that nothing pleasant and/or perfect in life will stay forever, just like the “gold” in life. Robert Frost uses symbols in this poem, “Nothing Gold Can Stay” to represent how many precious things in life don’t stay in one’s life...

...warm Intensity: The sculpture may be warm-looking but it does not affect how people feel about it. 7. Texture: The apples are not good to look at, but we can see that it makes a person curious to touch them if they’re real or not. ICONOGRAPHIC ELEMENT Apple in religion is a forbidden fruit. This shows what Adam and Eve did when they listened to the snake in the garden of eden. DISTINCTIVE ELEMENTS Basically, the picture shows two frames and each frame contain apples that have bites. What makes them distinct is one frame is crowded with apples that there is no room left and the other frame is only filled with a few apples which still has a lot of room. Analysis of Principles The artwork is repetitious and chaotic. USE OF LIGHT The artwork has a warm tone due to the redness of the apple. Likewise shadowy, because the artwork looks dark and mysterious. SPACE AND LANDSCAPE For the right frame, the canvas was filled with apples leaving no negative space. On the other frame, it only shows a few apples which means there’s a lot of room and negative space. Reaction to artwork The theme of the sculpture was the mistake of Adam and Eve when they chose to listen to the snake and ate the apple. The...

...Adam and Eve have been instructed certain activities in gardening. Eve has the special role of Master Gardener, meanwhile Adam holds the role of in engaging everyday conversation with god related to the Garden. Sara Torres analyzes, compares, and contrasts the differences that exist between Adam and Eve, such as feelings, spiritual attitudes, different roles in the poem, and and more importantly relationships. Torres states “While Eve tends the Garden, Adam engages in regular conversation with God. Adam the creator speak as friends and their conversations are most surely based on his daily activities. As a man Adam is the glory of God, and as such, God must find great pleasure in interacting with his creation, listening speaking to him. God...

...For the central section of the ceiling, Michelangelo has taken four episodes from the story of Adam and Eve as told in the first, second and third chapters of Genesis. In this sequence of three, two of the panels are large and one small. In the first of the pictures, and one of the most widely recognised images in the history of painting, Michelangelo shows God reaching out to touch Adam, who, in the words of Vasari, is a figure whose beauty, pose and contours are such that it seems to have been fashioned that very moment by the first and supreme creator rather than by the drawing and brush of a mortal man. From beneath the sheltering arm of God, Eve looks out, a little apprehensively. The "glory" of God, represented by a dark shaded area around...

...Furthermore, Trible’s reading of Adam suggests that he’s passive, nonchalant, and goes with whatever Eve asks of him or tells him and once the fall comes and they’ve both made a mistake and Eve chooses to take a bite from the apple; a sin, and tells Adam to also take a bite Adam after is seen as vindictive and opportunistic when he names, gives himself power over Eve. Trible states before the fall that Eve and Adam were equals. Eve isn’t from Adam but they are one in the same, made from the same cloth, created in the image of God. Adam was the beginning of creation and Eve was the end. Trible sees the story of creation as circular because it ends Eve and begins with Adam who are both creations of God from “raw material”. Adam was created, his...

...with imagery. It points out that kids are like plump shaped; meaning the kids have a rounded form assuming that they are out of shape since she is referring to them “as otters”. In an overall look at this poem it has strong words that helps me paint a picture; another example of that would be “Not beautiful, but suddenly limned with light; their elliptical wet flesh in a flash reflects it” this sentence uses words like, “limned” (depiction) of the light helps to see the “elliptical” (round) wet “flesh”, assuming its mentioning the obese kids earlier having fun in the summer weather. And finally the last sentence in the poem relating to summer: “and it greens the green grass, greens the hanging leaf; greens Adam and Eden, greens little Eve.” Mentioning green grass and the Adam and Eden reference creates and depicts a beautiful vivid picture about the feel. The poem does a good job of creating imagery, metaphors, etc. to help create a stunning poem about...

...Long before beauty pageants, Barbie dolls, and extra-ordinarily beautiful girls, came about the idea of the female body. Whether you are a believer of creationalism, scientology, or evolutionism, somehow we all came about with the perception of the “perfect” female. Women have always been seen, and portrayed as a sex symbol, and usually the disobedient one. Dating back to B.C and the story of Adam and Eve, Eve was the naked one who bit into the fruit that god told her was forbidden. Why couldn’t it have been Adam that caused such scandal, and was the cause for destruction, and crime in the world, and not Eve? From the believed beginning of time, to present day, women have really only progressed a small amount up the social ladder. Today, women are looked down upon, if they are slightly more over weight then what is considered “normal,” if they are “underweight”, “darker skin color”, too “pale”, “flat chested”, big boned, “thick,” or because of their ethnicities and backgrounds. So what exactly defines the “perfect female?” Is it the girls featured on “Girls Gone Wild” in Cancun, or the half naked models posing for Victoria’s Secret? Or is it the perfectly put together “Miss America” pageant queens? Or is it the Hollywood actresses with billion dollar dresses, and priceless jewelry? Or the well toned, well defined professional team cheerleaders, and dancers we watch? WE, speaking for us “average” women, who often tend to idolize, and carry pieces of all these girls...

...Enkidu and The Fall in the book Genesis we can find some similarities but also Differences between the tow that capture the reader’s attention, here are some of them: In The Fall in the book Genesis. It talks about the Garden of Eden. Lived a man named Adam who was created by God in his name and likeness, Adam lived in the garden next to the animals, as one of them, without any knowledge. The Epic of Gilgamesh tells us that the goddess Ururu created Enkidu. Enkidu was created half human and half animal. He lived in the woods with animals as a beast. Hunters and farmers feared the strange beast, as well Adam. Enkidu was created to stop the excesses of the king of uruk Gilgamesh. Between these two characters a great friendship was born that lead them to undertake great adventures. In The Fall in Genesis tells us about God.He decided to create companion for Adam. Then God created Eve as the companion of Adam. Adam and Eve lived together in the garden without feeling ashamed of their nakedness. However in the garden lived a snake. He tells Eve that God had deceived than about the fruit of the tree of knowledge. He tempts her to taste the tree fruit of the tree of knowledge, and she convinces Adam to do the same. Adam and Eve are expelled from the garden and give knowledge of their nakedness. As in the Fall Genesis, Enkidu was a primitive man without knowledge until he met a woman named Hamhat. She was a prostitute who was sent by Gilgamesh, to seduce Enkidu. She seduced...

...Name Removed English September 11, 2014 The Loss of Innocence in “Monkey Garden” In the chapter, “Monkey Garden,” from The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros, the garden symbolizes the archetypal Garden of Eden from Genesis. Similar to Adam and Eve eating from the forbidden tree, Esperanza loses her innocence in this mystical backyard. As an under-privileged child on Mango Street, Esperanza witnessed adult problems that most children her age would never dream of, especially the maltreatment of women. In this fantastical children’s garden, the kids escaped their real-life problems in search of the lost treasures the garden holds. The rich imagery Esperanza weaves into her description shows the evasion of her problems: “There were sunflowers big as flowers on Mars and thick cockscombs bleeding the deep red fringe of theatre curtains.” The images of Mars and the theatre imply entering a fictional or distant world without everyday challenges. In addition, the kids on Mango fabricate rumors that align the Monkey Garden with the Garden of Eden, “Somebody started the lie that the monkey garden had been there before anything.” Through her escape into fantasy, Esperanza kept her innocence. Through it, she stayed a child until the next day. Despite the seemingly irrevocable purity of the Monkey Garden, Sally’s kissing game with the boys not only defiles the image of the Monkey Garden but also substantiates the gender inequalities...
