Images in literature occur when the writer describes something and that invokes or stimulate the reader's senses such as: <em>hearing, smell, touch, sight or taste</em>. This literary device is known as <em>"imagery"</em>.

In <em>"The Old Man and the Sea"</em> accordingly:

1. (<em>page nine, the 1st paragraph</em>) describing the sail: <em>"The sail was patched with flour sacks and, furled, it looked like the flag of permanent defeat" </em>

2. <em>Page 9, 2nd. paragrafh</em>, describing the old man: <em>"...The old man was thin and gaunt with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck..." </em>

3. When describing Santiago in (<em>page 10</em>),  the writer says: <em>"...except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful..." </em>

4. In <em>page 11</em>, (<em>a fishing memory</em>) <em>"...feeling the whole boat shiver and the noise of you clubbing him like chopping a tree down and the sweet blood smell all over me"</em>

5. In <em>page 25</em>, (<em>the smell of Africa</em>) <em>"He smelled the tar and oakum of the deck as he slept and he smelled the smell of Africa that the land breeze brought at morning".</em>

In the novel "<em>The Old Man and the Sea" </em>by<em> Ernest Hemingway</em>, there are many  images.

  • Line 9: Image of number 40The repetitive use of the number forty throughout the novel. After 40 days ( which is exactly the duration it took Christ to live again) Manolin's parents decided that <em>"the old man was now and definitely salao, which is the worst form of unlucky"</em> The complete paragraph emphasizes Santiago's being unlucky. For example, "<em>It made the boy sad to see the old man come in each day with his skiff empty."</em>
  • Line 10: image of old age and eyesAt first, the author shows his main character as defeated and old. He refers to his scars as <em>"old as erosions in a fishless desert". </em>But, there are also images of Santiago's eyes, that in contrast to his old body are shown as " <em>...they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated".</em>
  • Line 30: the sea tha main character of the book, Santiago, represents the sea as a woman, "always thought of her as feminine and as something that gave or withheld great favors, and if she did wild or wicked things it was because she could not help them"<em>. </em> He feels that he complements himself with the sea ( man and woman intertiwined)
  • Line 37: a turtleSantiago compares himself to a turtle ( he has worked at a turtle ship before) He says "<em>most people are heartless about turtles because a turtle's heart will beat for hours after he has been cut up and butchered... I have such a heart too and my hands and feet are like theirs"</em>

I want to be a medical assistant because…

<span>I want to be a medical assistant because I love helping people and I want to make a difference. I hope my smile will be contagious and actually help someone through their day. There is so much hurt and pain in the world and too many people turning their backs on each other. A little kindness, happiness, and love can go a long way. I may only be me, but I refuse to give up and sometimes it only takes one to make a difference. I will strive to be the best and expect more. Patients need more than a treatment plan because they also need to be surrounded by hope, confidence, and respect. I want others to not be afraid to lead by example and prove that being a CMA (AAMA) is the greatest medical profession one can be. Becoming a Certified Medical Assistant (AAMA) is my career choice and a goal I will achieve with much pride and honor! Medical Assistants are trained in such a broad spectrum that our profession is envied by others and sought out more than any other assisting career in the nursing field. I love informing family, friends, strangers, and/or patients, that, “Yes!” I will be a Certified Medical Assistant by the AAMA. It is a respectable career with the rewards of helping someone who needs you. </span>

<span>As a medical assistant you have the privilege to assist and maintain the balance and routine of the everyday operations in a medical office. You are needed in providing a positive and healing atmosphere, not only for patients, but for your colleagues as well. As medical assistants we can perform routine tasks and procedures such as obtaining vital signs, administering medications and injections, collecting specimens for lab testing, and recording medical information. Not only is a medical assistant certified in tasks and procedures, but we are trained and certified in the administrative and clinical field as well. If you work well with others, love the office setting, and can multitask, then medical assisting is the profession for you. It can be a lifelong commitment or a door to further your career. Whichever reason you choose medical assisting, you will not be disappointed because this is the best choice for you. You will have many choices for obtaining your education and certification, but I recommend only the best. This would be attending a medical assisting program accredited by the CAAHEP and obtaining your credentials with the American Association of Medical Assistants (AAMA). The AAMA is the top dog and the best of the best, so don’t settle for second best…Go for the Gold! Reward yourself and become a CMA (AAMA) because the rewards and benefits will outweigh all the obstacles you encountered to get there.</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>That is just an example I suggest you don't use this as your essay :)</span>
