Unit 7 Assignment 1

People Only Change after Something Bad Happens

I agree that people do change after something bad happens. I experienced this after my aunt was killed. My whole family use to be close to my aunt’s boyfriend family. After their death everyone stopped speaking because everyone was blaming each other’s family for the deaths. They both were killed but we never found out by whom, and this caused a big problem throughout everyone. I do think that people change whenever a situation goes bad. Its not right but this happen often, I’ve witnessed many occasions when people have been really close but once something bad happens everything goes wrong. In reality its just a part of life.

The U.S. & Other Countries Affairs

The U.S. has been involved in many affairs, some they should’ve and some they shouldn’t have been involve in. For instance, they were apart of the WWI because they wanted to fight for nationalism, imperialism, militarism, and an alliance system. These were all good causes to fight for but they lost a lot in the process of becoming a powerful country. Another example, is now in present time, we’re fighting in Iraq for many causes as of to protect our country. The many problems are that in the mist of all of these wars we lose important things to us. Right now we’re losing soldiers, gas prices are rising and the economic is going down the drain. The U.S. has a lot to deal with but some things they shouldn’t get involved with.

Unit 6 Assignment 1

Have You Ever Jumped into Someone Else’s Business?

I have jumped into someone else’s business before because they were either family or close friend who needed my help so I helped. Not always is it a good idea to get into other peoples business but sometimes they just may need your help or you may relate to the situation. Never is it ok to get into someone’s business if you don’t know the meaning of the situation. I think everyone should mind their own business if they never had anything to do with it in the beginning but if you’re defending someone that you care about then it may be different. Whenever my close friends are having problems I try to help them, but not get in the middle unless I feel the need to.
