Consider the individuals in George Orwell’s “Shooting an Elephant” and Doris Lessing’s “No Witchcraft for Sale” who are essentia

lly powerless in their respective societies. How do these individuals behave? What do they do to those who have power in their societies? Why do these people act as they do, and what does their behavior demonstrate about imperialism as a political and social ideology? Use examples from the works you have read in your response.

In both pieces, the main characters are both forced to accept racism, discrimination, and prejudice even if their individual morals hate these practices. In their minds, they criticize those who have power. Orwell had to obey authorities. Gideon and Teddy had to cope with the arguments of their elders. People act upon an agreed value because of pressure and reputation. Imperialism is shown when people think staying in power or with those that have power is way to survival.

What is the significance of Romeo and Juliet’s first interaction taking place within the form of a sonnet? What does the use of
AysviL [449]

When Romeo sees Juliet for the first time, he is struck by her beauty and breaks into a sonnet. The imagery Romeo uses to describe Juliet gives important insights into their relationship. Romeo initially describes Juliet as a source of light, like a star, against the darkness: "she doth teach the torches to burn bright! It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night." As the play progresses, a cloak of interwoven light and dark images is cast around the pair. The lovers are repeatedly associated with the dark, an association that points to the secret nature of their love because this is the time they are able to meet in safety. At the same time, the light that surrounds the lovers in each other's eyes grows brighter to the very end, when Juliet's beauty even illuminates the dark of the tomb. The association of both Romeo and Juliet with the stars also continually reminds the audience that their fate is "star-cross'd."

Romeo believes that he can now distinguish between the artificiality of his love for Rosaline and the genuine feelings Juliet inspires. Romeo acknowledges his love was blind, "Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight / For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night."

Romeo's use of religious imagery from this point on — as when he describes Juliet as a holy shrine — indicates a move towards a more spiritual consideration of love as he moves away from the inflated, overacted descriptions of his love for Rosaline.

What is one step you can take to improve your feeling of balance between the two? What might be hard about taking that step, and
faust18 [17]

Finding balance is important because it helps one improve overall health and wellbeing. These are steps to follow to improve a balance between things, and they can be:

  • Setting boundaries.
  • Asking for help.
  • Take a break.

<h3>What is a balance?</h3>

Balance is simply known to be creating time for the things you have to do as well as the things you want to do.

Setting boundaries is a method of safeguarding one's emotional and physical space, and this can be hard because most often, people feel responsible for the feeling of others and this can be overcome by telling someone how something they're doing makes you feel and asking for what you need from them instead.

Hence, we can see that creating a balance helps to prioritize important things and pay attention to body needs.
