Read the excerpt from "Lather and Nothing Else" A little more lather here under the chin, on the Adam’s apple, right near the gr

eat vein. How hot it is! Torres must be sweating just as I am. But he is not afraid. He is a tranquil man, who is not even giving thought to what he will do to his prisoners this evening. I, on the other hand, polishing his skin with this razor but avoiding the drawing of blood, careful with every stroke—I cannot keep my thoughts in order. How does the author best create suspense in this excerpt? The captain is described as tranquil and unafraid, which shows that he is violent. Descriptive shaving details are included to create tension in the barbershop. Prisoners and blood are mentioned, which hints at the upcoming dangerous scene ahead. Short sentences and confused thoughts speed the pace toward the barber’s important decision.

,,Health is a blessing'' essay of 200 words
jeyben [28]

Not quite 200 words, but I'm sure you can add a couple sentences and then you'll be good to go:

When one counts their blessings, it may be easy to overlook good health as a blessing, for people often do not realize the worth of something until it is gone. For example, someone may not realize how much they value another person until they’ve lost them. Likewise, sometimes we forget what a blessing health is until we become ill or injured.

Some blessings are given to us, and some are cultivated. Some people have a harder time maintaining a healthy lifestyle than others, due to genetics or socioeconomic status. In the case of genetics, some people were fortunate enough to be born with good genetics, whereas some people have a greater predisposition towards certain disorders and have weaker immune systems. People who live in poverty also have difficulty maintaining good health, for they do not always have the luxury of having free time to exercise, access to fresh, healthy foods, or the money to receive adequate healthcare. Therefore, health is a blessing because it reflects how fortunate someone is in multiple aspects of life.
