Softa [21]

Answer:

The dragon uses the examples of animals and vegetables to explain about man's inevitable move towards complexity. Vegetables can be regrown by using a bit of its part, while an animal has a head that controls every other part. Likewise, man has the ability to adapt to any change in his environment, which leads to the choices he make. And it is this superior ability of man which signifies the gap between man and other beings, just like importance and expression are different.

Explanation:

When Grendel went to the cave of the dragon in Chapter 5 of the text Grendel by John Gardner, the dragon began teaching about everything. He proclaimed that he knows and hears everything, exclaiming that it's what "makes [him] so sick and old and tired".

And in his attempt to teach Grendel about the difference between importance and expression, he uses the example of a jug. He states "the jug is an absolute democracy of atoms", but devoid of expression. To him, "Importance passes from the world as one to the world as many, whereas expression is the gift from the world as many to the world as one." This shows that what is deemed important may not necessarily be expressive.

In other words, his attempt to explain the difference led to the animal/vegetables analogy. He explains nature's consequent move to complexity which he relates to the case of man's ability to adapt to his environment despite Grendel's belief of their foolishness. He uses vegetables and animals as examples between man and a rock. A rock is a simple object, which may be whole in its being but unlike a man, it is not capable of doing anything to change its existence. On the contrary, man can adapt to his surroundings and change his ideas, even at the last minute. Animals have a head which leads the other body parts, like a man does. But vegetables and rocks have no such ability, which renders their limited abilities. To summarize is points, the below quote from the text rightly presents the difference-

"If the dominant activity be severed from the rest of the body--if, for example, we cut off the head--the whole coordination collapses, and the animal dies. Whereas in the case of the vegetable, the democracy can be subdivided into minor democracies which easily survive without much apparent loss of functional expression."

Luden [163]

I was walking alone near a supermarket at 9 pm. As I was about to cross the road I remembered that I had left my wallet at home, with all my money in it. I scolded and complained to myself for being so casual about my commitments, but I had to go back home to get my wallet, as there was nothing else I could do.

I took a deep breath and started walking back to the house. Halfway there, I was hit by a violent rain. "Excellent!" I thought, "It was just what I needed to make my day more perfect," I said angrily. I started to run so I wouldn't get soaked when I heard a noise near a tree. It was the meowing of a kitten that was freezing to death, trying to protect itself from the rain at the tubular roots of the tree. I got close to it and it flinched in fear, but I caught it lovingly and tucked it under my jacket. All my anger began to pass and I realized that fate had planned for me to forget my wallet so I could help a stray kitten.

Write an essay on self-love.

pogonyaev

Answer:

I hold myself to high standards and knowing that I was comparing myself to other people made me feel less beautiful. It made me less confident and it led me down the road of self-destruction. My mind was filled with what I could do and be rather than what I am doing now.

I turned on Beautiful by Christina Aguilera and started singing and dancing and all that I was worried about was gone. My mind became clear.

Nothing in this life will be easy, we will cry, laugh, scream and be silent. What you do to get over that wall is what defines you. There’s more than one way over a wall! Remember that!

We learn after our hard times what it means to love ourselves whole heartedly and how important it is to look in the mirror and say to yourself, “You are beautiful.”

Thinking positive thoughts enhances self-love and confidence. See how I told you that I was comparing myself, those thoughts resulted in me feeling less confident. I put down the phone and did things that made me feel beautiful and competent.

Thinking positive is not easy! With everything we as women go through already, positive thinking takes a lot of discipline. Your body regenerates itself with new cells creating new thinking and new habits.

Practice positive thinking and start doing things that make you feel like you are enough. If you think you can change the world, you probably will be the one to do it. Put your social media to rest and appreciate what’s here, right now, in front of you.

There’s nothing better than maturing and knowing that you are enough. All that you have is what the Creator gave you. Nothing more and nothing less.

You are what the creator made you to be and that’s perfection. You are no mistake and the mistakes that you do make, help you become the person you were meant to become.

Think of this when you’ve hit a wall, I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be. That helps me not stress myself with where I am in life. Instead of us encouraging women to be and act what they see on reality shows, we should be encouraging our women to love what they see first. Then love what you do and carry yourself with dignity and know that no one can take that away from you.

Trust yourself and work hard. Life gives no promises; all that the universe recognizes is your energy. You give out good energy, you will be given exactly what you give out.

Hope this helps
