Christian Hansen Consider the Destructive Power of Pain There are two types of pain that we all experience, physical and emotional (or mental). Physical pain is a signal of the nerves; therefore it is something that is tangible, something that we can prove is there and something that we can feel. Emotional pain is hurt on the inside of one's soul. It cannot be expressed; it is only a feeling in the soul. According to certain religious views, pain

ʘ In the Pacific Ocean there is an island composed by two mountains. It is as if someone had placed together two big handfuls of earth and stones in the heart of the sea. The bigger one is called Sadness and the smaller one Joy. ʘ Mythology tells us that many centuries ago Joy was larger and higher than Sadness, but, due to an earthquake, part of it fell in the sea, shaping the mountain the way we find it today. No one knows if that is really the truth. ʘ ʘ The fact is that where

and red, you can never forget it in your lifetime. Nature has myriad facets. It keeps changing from season to season, from minute to minute. If the sea was a bright blue in the morning, by noon it has become an emerald green hue. The colors of the sky keep changing throughout the day, from pale pink at dawn to a dazzling blue at mid morning and a bright orange by sunset and purple by twilight. Nature reflects our moods. When the sun shines, we feel happy and hopeful. When the skies cloud over

Place By The Ocean Kyle L. McGuire English 121 Instructor Lori Hawks June 29, 2013 Place By The Ocean It is 30 minutes before sunrise, the moon is gleaming in the distance in which appears to be tumbling into the silhouette of jagged mountain tops. Sitting here in the unruffled sand, stretching his legs out for a morning jog; he takes a moment and thinks to himself “There is no place I rather be.” The salt in the air makes his tongue tingle, the constant breeze whistles by his ears and the

My Research Paper for this semester is based on Beach Music from the Carolina’s that some call “Carolina Soul”. The bands I am covering are from the Beach Music / Rhythm & Blues scene that got their start playing local clubs in the 1960’s. My Dad is a Beach & Shag music DJ (He was inducted into the Beach Music DJ Hall of Fame in 2012 http://www.abscdj.com/djhalloffame/index.htm ) so I can remember as a kid hearing this type of music all the time. My parents had a party room in the basement and I

Descriptive writng. The Beach The beach is a relaxing getaway. There are various things about the beach that stick into my mind. The three main things that stuck to me was the view, smell, and the sound. All the way from beauty of the ocean, how the colors in the sky blended with the motion of the water. I will always remember the sound of pelicans calling each other as they swooped just in front of the orange sunset to scoop the sea water in their flabby necks. Even the taste of the air mixed

The Beautiful Ocean The above-sea world has many wonderful and beautiful sights. As air-breathing, land dwellers, we can look up during the day and see the enormous bright blue sky with puffs of clouds that look like cotton candy, stars that flicker like little candles at night, and strong, tall oaks that look like skyscrapers. Being above water has many beautiful sights to offer but just where those beauties end another world with its own beauties begins. Scuba diving at a spot near my uncle’s

is a painting inspired by the ocean. It is a large piece of art; one that is even taller than me; keeping in mind I am five feet two inches and this painting measures at exactly 72 x 60 inches. It is oil on a canvas and is part of Ahn’s A Memoir of Water Works. This painting is a startling piece of work. In this painting, Ahn uses bold colors and texture to mimic the immensity of the ocean and the constant movement of the waves. He uses mostly different shades of blue, red, green, and yellow. The
