Village life in America and A Confederate Girl’s Diary
Both
diaries, Village life in America and A Confederate Girl’s Diary, are very
interesting in the way that they are written. Sarah Morgan Dawson and Caroline
Cowles Richards both have written about the Civil war, however they have very
different perspectives and opinions about it.
Here
are some similarities. Both girls were going through a time of war. They both
despised the war and wanted it to end as soon as possible. They have both gone
through moments of fear and misery, but also happiness and pleasure at
sometimes. They have both lost family members and friends that they have loved.
Both females were reporting and observing what was happening around them and
they were very good writers too. At the end of the war, both Dawson and
Richards were very glad the war was over.
There
were also a few differences with the two diaries too. The biggest difference is
that Richards is on the unions side while Dawson is on the Confederates side.
Dawson was devasted at the loss of her side. “Thursday the 13th came the
dreadful tidings of the surrender of Lee and his army on the 9th. Everybody
cried”. Richards was triumphant at the win of her side. “Lee has surrendered!
and all the people seem crazy in consequence. The bells are ringing, boys and
girls, men and women are running through the streets wild with excitement”.
Finally, Richards seems more like a calm and funny person while Dawson looks
for revenge "Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord." This
is murder! God have mercy on those who did it!”.
To
sum it all up both diaries were very different even though they were written
and the same time. Both girls were strong throughout the civil war, though the
lost several family members. In the end Richards was very happy that her side
won the war while Dawson was devastated at her sides loss.
Answer:
And since you are asking, what I find frustrating at City
Well first of all, I always try my best to stay positive and not to hold any grudges. With that being said, I occasionally run into some frustrations at work.
• Big Picture
Looking at a larger picture, sometimes I find it frustrating that I don’t have someone that I can really share my excitement with or get advice from. I know this is silly frustration, but I am currently the only marketing individual so when I am talking about marketing ideas, I never know who to talk to. I know Roger is my supervisor, but he is also the President of the company so I assume he has a lot more pressing topics to discuss than to hear all I have to say (sometimes I can get rambling and I don’t want to waste anyone’s time). So I occasionally mix it up and I’ll talk to Cara, Melissa, Amanda, etc. That is probably one of the most frustrating things. I like collaborating and I honestly would rather have short 15 min marketing meetings every week instead of having 1 larger marketing meeting once a month. It would save me more time and make me more efficient. I would rather do small steps every week instead of doing all of the steps and finding out that no one liked it or finding out we are not all on the same page. Also meeting more frequently would help me a lot because I hate running into a question and just having to write it down for the marketing meeting two weeks away. In a perfect world, if I had a question I would love to just
Explanation:

Answer:
The only influence you might say they have is from not being around. Maybe that helped cause Dally to be so angry.
Explanation:
the reason he is by himself is because of his parents neglect, he is a very troubled person. I suppose that maybe he came to be this way because his parents didn't care about him. Dallas Winston's personality has definitely been influenced by his parents or, more specifically, the lack of parenting in his life.
If Dally had had any parenting or been shown kindness by anyone (before the Greasers), he probably would not have ended up in jail at the age of ten. If he had not been forced to live on the streets, he probably could have allowed himself to be soft.
