Life and death

Death to me is leaving the physical world and move on when God thinks you've had enough on earth. You may not feel like you are ready to die but I think when God sees that you have finished all of your jobs you needed to finish in life, he lets you move on. I think it's kind of like a video game, you move on to the next level. "They think we are looking back at them , which makes them lift their oars and fall silent and wait, like parent" (Collins) I think this quote means that the dead don't want you to worry about them, but they want to watch over you. They want to help you through life and they want to be your guardian angel. In the poem I hear a fly buzz, I thought the author made death in avery unappealing   way. She says " The eyes around-had wrung dry." (Dickenson)  I think that is a very sad way to think about death. She is saying people cry for you but they will eventually forget you. We are destined to die alone with everything gone. They only living thing that will be there on your death bed will be a gross fly. I think that if you have a very loving family, they will never leave you. Also if you leave a good impact on the world people will remember you. Death could also be a good thing. It frees our souls from our body's and that could be a breath of fresh air for people. In the painting Life and Death, Gustau paints that life has many people in it. All different kinds of people too. He shows the purity of people. In the painting he shows the he shows the baby which is the beginning and the end which is death. He portrays death as a dark thing where it is sad and depressing. When I think about death I think it could be diet but I would like to think of it as a happy place that is bright and full of happiness, heaven.

Love and Marriage

Love is suppose to go with marriage but sometimes it doesn't workout that way. Love is when someone adores someone else so much that they would do absolutely anything for that other person. Marriage goes along with love. When you get married, you are really saying that you want to spend the rest of your life with that person. Ann Bradstreet writes in her poem To My Dear and Loving Husband, " I prize thy love more than whole mines of coal". (Bradstreet) She is trying to say that she loves her husband so much more than money, nature, or anything really. In her open she is telling the reader that true love is the way to happiness. When you love someone, you should love them forever, even after death. On the other hand, Wislawa Szymborka writes in her poem "True Love", "So many people in the world what makes you think you found the right one?"(Szymoborska)  I feel like Wislawa has gone through a very troubled past with love. They was that she refers to love is not in a very positive way. In her poem, her clam is that love isn't needed and all in all it is a joke. I personally don't think love is a joke because you could love you family, a friend, or a pet. Love can't just be about the physical side because you love more people than just your partner. When I get married someday, I want my future husband to be my best friend. You need to have friendship in a relationship for it to be a healthy one.  In Gustau Klimts painting entitled "The kiss" he wants people to know that when you are in a relationship, you need togetherness. In the painting, the couple spear as one and that is how he shows it. Also there is a blanket that covers the two so you can't tell what they actually look like. I think what he is trying to show through this painting is that it doesn't matter what you look like. You should love someone no matter how they look. Fat, skinny, tall, short it doesn't matter, love is love. As I said before there is much more to a relation ship them intimacy. Gustau Klimt feels the same way because the blanket that is covering the couple has a very busy pattern on it with a lot going on so that is how I interpreted the painting. I think love is a very hard thing to find but when you find it, or even if you find it, you should hold on to it forever.

Happiness

Happiness to me is singing in front of a crowd. This is when I have no cares in the world. When I make people happy with my singing, I am happy. I think there is no real definition of happiness because when you think about it, everyone is like a snowflake, they are different in their own way. One thing that makes me happy could make another person unhappy. People don't know what is gonna make you happy. That is why boyfriends and girlfriends have a lot of trouble trying to make their partners happy. Since singing is what makes me happy, I really want to be on Broadway. I want the kind of job where it doesn't even feel like you are working. Since I will someday be starring on Broadway, i want to live in a studio apartment with my husband. by the time I am 35 I want two kids so I can make my own little family. I want my parents and brothers and sisters to be able to come visit me and I want them to have easy access to my kids.

Happiness according to PBS.org is thought of as the good life, freedom from suffering, flourishing, well being, joy, prosperity and pleasure. that definition doesn't tell you what makes each person happy.
