...of “physical things,” this text will address the concepts of a “golden mountain,” “a round square,” and an “imaginary friend.” Because “golden” is being used as a quality of a physical thing called a “mountain,” I would submit that an idealist would accept the notion of a golden mountain because it is something that at worst we can conceptualize as a tangible thing in our minds and at best stands a decent possibility of actually existing on a given planet in a given universe. Continuing, I submit that an idealist would reject the notion of a round square, given that both “round” and “square” are intangible things that are most often used as descriptors of other things that human beings can perceive as being...

...Sometimes you have to accept the worst things life. This is a major theme that shows up through people lives everywhere on Earth, it also shows up in Walk Two Moons. Our main characters Sal and Phoebe both have had to accept several things they tried to deny throughout the book. The most noticeable thing that Sal had to accept was her mother's death. The entirety of the book was leading up to the point where Sal sat in front of her mother's grave and finally accept the fact that her mother, was not coming back. Sal says, “On the tombstone, beneath her name and the dates of her birth and death, was an engraving of a maple tree, and it wa only then, when i saw the stone and her name—Chanhassen “Sugar” Pickford Hiddle—and the engraving of that...

...Genuine happiness and freedom can subsist solely in acceptance. In an utopia, everyone would accept and trust each other, which induces happiness and the feeling of security/freedom. However, that’s not the case in our world. Human beings here are selfish, insecure, and don’t trust one another. People are not willing to accept others who are different either physically or mentally. The stories, “What of this Goldfish Would You Wish?”, “The Lottery”, and the Barbara Jordan quote, all illustrate the effects that acceptance or non-acceptance have in society. Acceptance can only be a good thing and have positive effects to society. Firstly, people cannot choose their own future, and simply have to accept their life. One example in the short story, “What of this Goldfish Would You Wish?”, is when the owner of the magical goldfish has accidentally killed the camera boy. If he does accept the fact that he has killed the boy, and bring him back to life with his final wish, it can positively affect his life and he will have the feeling of...

...everything in your present and future. Taking total responsibility for your life is one of the most important things you can ever do. Accepting complete responsibility for all your actions represents maturity in your life. When you accept complete responsibility for everything in your life, success, achievement, and self-actualization will follow. You can never accomplish anything of value in your life or have any real measure of happiness without first accepting complete responsibility for all your words, actions, and decisions. Accepting that you are completely responsible for yourself and realizing that no one is coming to the rescue will mark the starting point of peak performance in your life. Once you accept total responsibility for every decision you make and every action you take, there is virtually nothing that you cannot do, have, and accomplish. The acceptance of responsibility is so important, that it comes before goal setting. Until you accept total responsibility, you will not seriously set goals and make plans for their achievement. Without accepting complete responsibility, you are unconsciously leaving yourself a way out. Unfortunately, most people simply make excuses for their failures. They blame other people and things for what’s happening in their life. Since everything we do in life is a matter of habit, when we get in the habit of making excuses for things that happen in our lives, we then get...

...God as a prime mover to the idea of him as a craftsman If we were to accept the concept of God as a prime mover we would then have to accept that while God created humanity, he really wants nothing to do with it. If we were to accept the contrasting view of him as a craftsman then we have to accept that God created us for a reason and wants to forma relationship with us, this has its negativites however. IF we accept that then we must accept that all atrocities that have occurred have happened and God has no qualms with it happening. The support for viewing God as a creator comes from the Book of Genesis. The mention of God in this book has led to the belief that God created the world “ex nihilo” or out of nothing. In Genesis it is also implied that God wants to have a relationship with his creation because he has given them a list of commands to follow (the Ten Commandments.) This draws a parallel with the Aristotelian idea of God as more of a prime mover. This would make God an external agent working with matter, nor is he an agent over against other agents. This two ideas contrast here because if God were to not be against other agents, he would not have banished Lucifer, as it is told in the bible. Another point of conflict between these two ideas of God lies in the problem of evil. If we accept the traditional idea of God as a master craftsman we must accept that he himself made all things in the world and therefore they must be perfect. This however leaves us confused...

...Sally Cook should accept Bossey’s offer to get higher value for her stock. Then the question is what Cook should do? 2、Stakeholders ① Ralph Bossey: He has the right to use the way of takeover to make money, even if it will cause harmful effect on employees in that company and development of community health. ② Stockholders (like Sally Cook): They have the right to choose to accept the attractive offer from Bossey or not. ③ Employees: They have the right to guarantee a stable job in the company. 3、 Alternative Actions and Consequences. ① Accept the offer from Bossey. If Cook accepted the offer, she can get double current market value for her holdings. But it will cause lay off many employees in Graham Corporation. It can also restrain company’s nutritional improvements and product innovation. Finally, it will influence the development of community health. ② Not accept the offer. If Cook does not accept the offer, it will benefit many employees and community health. But she has to extend the working time to gain a better life to eliminate her financial worry. 4、 Analysis From my opinion, I think Cook should not accept the offer from Bossey. The following reasons are the factors that Cook should consider before she makes final decision. From a legal point of view, what Bossey does is legal. The way he uses to take over the company is also legal, but his action will have negative effect on the development of the company. And no matter whether Cook accepts the offer or not...

...I had an embarrassed feeling whenever I hung out with him. No one know his secret, except me, because I am his best friend who he believes the most. The reason why he decided to tell me his secret is that he hoped me could understand and accept the real person of him. However, at this time, I still don’t believe and can’t accept the real one in him. Is it wrong that I’m still friendly with him? Should I be angry at Tuan? What should I do now in order to escape my awkward feeling and don’t ruin my friendship? Signed, Minh D. Dear Minh D. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. The first thing I’m going to tell you that I am very jealous of you because of your wonderful friendship. I’m pretty sure that you are a great person who can listen actively and give advice for anyone that need you. The reason I come to that conclusion is because you’ve earned a strong faith from your best friend that he chose only you to confess his feeling. I don’t see why you should be angry with Tuan at all. He has been honest with you from the start of the confession that he may be bisexual or gay. I can tell you from experiences that gay men make wonderful friends. I understand your feelings about his situation; for some people, it’s hard to accept a shock thing that is a big secret of someone and that will change a future of someone;...

...I have defined as what acceptance meant to me in all my twenty years of life. Throughout my life I have tried and attempted to accept everybody and have also tried to be accepted as well, but even with all the trying I have run into many people that I am just unable to accept and some who just wouldn’t accept who I am. Luckily for me, I have been able to be accepted and be able to accept far more people. Acceptance is a big aspect in my life in many ways, be it being accepted for being transgender or even being accepted as simply the person I am. When I first came to the conclusion that I was transgender I noticed a lot of anti-LGBT propaganda that I never once paid attention to be it Facebook comments, YouTube comments or just plain out...

...****A letter to everyone who says that we have to "ACCEPT" Donald Trump's Presidency**** If you're an opponent of Donald Trump, you've probably heard one of his supporters insist that "he's your president now, so you have to accept him," or some variant thereof. The implication here is that, because Trump cleared 270 votes in the electoral college, Americans must refrain from criticizing him and root for his unabated success instead. But that is nonsense — accepting that Trump is our president now does not mean what a lot of Trump supporters think it means. I vehemently oppose Trump and his agenda — but I accept that he's my president now. To be more specific, I accept the fact that Trump has completed the legal process necessary to serve as president of the United States. It is factually correct to say that, as of Jan. 20, he is America's 45th president, and I accept this. But that's all I accept. The rest, I reject. I reject the implication that just because Trump is president, we aren't allowed to condemn him anymore. To the contrary: We most definitely are allowed to condemn him, whenever we like and as strongly as we see fit. One of the nice things about living in a democracy is that we're allowed to freely criticize our government. This is the constitutional right of every American, and I'll exercise it under any...

...Why can’t we all be rational and accept each other as individuals? There are billions of people on this earth and I can say a good majority of them aren’t accepting. We discriminate others that are different, and we shouldn’t stand for it. There are people who let their past define their relationship with other people, like their religion, sexuality, or their nationality. Barbra Jordan says “We, as human beings, must be willing to accept people who are different from ourselves.” As Barbra Jordan states from her citation, we should accept each other as individuals because there would be peace, we would be closer in a community, and we would be empowered and love one another. Accepting each other’s beliefs builds tolerance for everyone, even...

...Strong Leadership This essay discusses an assumption that communities accept us for who we are. There are several ideas concerning community values and that strong leadership is needed to support this claim. Researching this idea with a book titled Remix Reading & Composing Culture. I read short essays, and a commencement address from this textbook. The passages tie into my belief of strong leadership having to be linked to the assumption that communities accept us for who we are. I explored these essays, and commencement address to support my views in a creative way. An essay titled “It Takes a Tribe” speaks of college life and fraternities. The commencement address by John Stewart is comical. Another essay I enjoyed speaks...

...As a teenager, we want what we don’t need. Sometimes we have to realize what we were craving for. There are things that are not meant for you, things that are not fitted in your personality, and things that were not written in your life on earth. Thinking every day of what you want or what you really don’t need. Sometimes we wish things that we know we can’t have. We have to accept that not all people or even you were destined in what you want to be. There are millions of purposes for why it’s not meant for you. The unexpected never is and that’s life. No one could predict. No one could change what’s done. Every second past was part of our history. Every breath you take is something affect in your environment. Every time you make them happy was a moment for them. Your goals and plans are not the things that God will give to you. There’s always reason why. We can’t ask nor knew about it. Things that are not meant for you have a replacement. Replacement that is better in your future. So you don’t need to depress yourself on what’s not destined to you. Never give up on what you started for. There is one thing for you that you need to be patient for you to achieve it. Don’t just think that when you’re out of time or out of your mind you give it up. Try harder than you try. Try the best of best. Try to work on it. Don’t just let your goals see you crying for it. Sometimes in our life, God is trying to test us how your faith works to him. He makes us depressed and tired of trying...
