Post 19:Dante's Concept of Hell

When it comes to Dante's concept of hell there can be many different opinions on what he felt bout this particular word. Personally speaking from what I read Dante's concept of hell; was more on a mind thing. When I say this statement I'm speaking in regards to something occurring only in "his" mind. When reading this story a particular line stuck out to me which was, "The Path To Paradise, Starts In Hell". This statement stuck to me because, I can compare it similarly to my life being that in other words it's saying..." in order to start receiving your blessings, your going to have to go through some rough things. The appeal of pain then comes in when the pilgrim's are trying to restore Dante's consciousness in regards to what sin really is. In modern day time, I feel as if we see hell on earth today as it is. In regards to the violence that's occurring, the black on black crimes and white on white crimes and just racism period! When it's all said and done, we'll all pay for our sins someday.

Post26: Comparing Colleagues Post About Modern Women

When I was doing this post I decided to look at Demarshun for my male and for my female I chose Dainty. When reading Demarshun post his view on women was " the modern day woman in majority of households is the head of that household. I remember there was a time, when the "man of the house" made decisions and those decisions was the law of that house". whereas, when reading Dainty post she feels as if , "most women play the role of both wife and mother, but also as a contributing and equal member of the household and society". When reading each of these post they both shared a similar thought in regards to women having more say so, then back in the day.

Post 2: Favorite Movie

When it comes to movies I rarely look at those. Although, I don't look at movies as much I do recall watching a movie entitled "Frozen", with my little cousin. This movie had tons of figurative language throughout it. There were similes throughout the entire movie. One of them that stuck out to me was when she used the wind to compare to her emotions. "The wind is howling like the swirling storm inside." The meaning of this particular figurative language was to express her emotions that she was having at the moment which were going crazy like the wind. Another form of figurative language that was used in this movie was metaphors. "She is cold", although she's comparing two things to indicate that she's cold, she's not using the words "like or as". These are just two to the figurative languages presented in this movie, with there literal meaning although there more.

Post 9: What Symbolizes You?

This post is actually one of my favorite ones thus far. When reading what this post was supposed to be about I didn't have any problem thinking about what item to choose. The item that I've chosen to elaborate on, because it symbolizes me well is; my tattoo on my wrist. On my left wrist I have a tattoo that says " Queen ". From the day I've gotten this tattoo I've thought of it as more than just a "tattoo". It symbolizes that I'm a " QUEEN and, whenever I feel myself settling for less I look down on my wrist, and I see those five letters and it makes me remember that...I'm a QUEEN and not to ever settle for anything less than what I expect or, know that I'm worthy of and to never allow anyone to tell me different.
