The word of question is exile. People see exile as something negative, being banished from a kingdom, being kicked out of your girlfriend's house. Though, this could lead to a new life experience. When one is exiled, they don't necessarily break ties from the people they love, sometimes in that form of life they had to endure someone who they hate. For example, before being banished you had to always attempt to impress you father in law or something. People always see exile as something terrible, but sometimes it is a simple way to restart.

While we see school as an academic opportunity can we be denied of being entertained? We attend sports, community service, outside activities to make school feel more entertainment. Imagine if they were to take that away, how would society benefit on their students only learning and not having entertainment along with it. Partly, the reason why students attend school is for this entertainment and so they can talk to others and communicate with others when they are not home. High school has evolved from a simple house of academic learning to a building where people socialize and attend activities to nourish themselves, as well as continue to learn.

While a computer and a cell phone are completely different as a cell phone is used for calling and a computer is use to assess assignments, search for subjects of interest, and to mail people all around the world in seconds, both possess the ability to entertain and inform the user.

Biography: The biography of Martin Luther King Jr.
The "I Have a dream" Speech (of course I believe everyone has read it)
The speech connected with a life without discrimination, a life where everyone is equal, but doesn't always dictate to race, but to religion, different social classes, different backgrounds. How people can all be together instead of separated. Gave me a mindset that I can make friends and associates with just about anyone.
History: The Founding Brothers
The mindset of Ben Franklin on slavery. The Disagreement between Aaron Burr and Hamilton leading to their duel. Ben Franklin was very insightful and knowledgeable to the history of the United States, but abolishing slavering crossing his mind gave me respect more respect to the admirable man. Aaron Burr and Hamiltion rivalry and duel describes the wrong way to settle a dispute. How one can settle an issue peacefully instead of resorting to well, violence.
