I decided to do a virtual tour using the National Gallery which is located in London, England (http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/visiting/virtualtour/#/room-57/). I included my 10 year old son on this tour just to expose him to different forms of art. I like to tour various museums but I have very rarely thought about what the pieces may have meant. I was excited about this assignment mostly because of having the Humanities class and discussing how world events and thoughts were expressed through

“The Gift of the Magi” – Deciphering the Theme Scott Cole ENG 125 Introduction to Literature Professor Patricia Vineski 6 Oct 2013 The theme of a story, as I’ve learned, is much more than what happened; this is the plot.

With that, I have one reason and one reason only of thinking this way which is . . . Jesus, the son of God, became human. Having a Catholic background and coming from a Catholic school, my faith leads me to believe that Jesus is fully divine and fully human at the same time. In my opinion, Jesus becoming human is God’s way of saying that He wants us to understand Him more. To be fair, others might argue that Jesus is not God but the Son of God; but I respond with my faith that God the Father, God

The most impacting concepts that I have learned about my understanding of servant leadership is that it is not a modern concept, but it was found in the Bible with documentations of Jesus being the model of a servant leader.

Thirdly, the primary concern
