His name is Joel.

I see a boy, with short hazel coloured hair, smooth and fair. There are stars in his eyes and they have a gleam of joy in them, full of youth. His skin is pale white and soft, radiated by the moon. When he laughs, the air fills with delight and he makes the eldest of people feel young again. His lips are luscious and twinkle in the moons rays. His name is Joel. His presence makes one feel happy and blissful. When he speaks, it's like listening to a song and never wanting it to stop. The birds in the wildest of areas hear his voice and approach him to get a closer look, to see who the owner of the voice is. That is the effect he has on those around him. Everyone feels peaceful. The animals of any kind that he sees or meets, he is in peace with. I perceive his aura and see that it is a beaming colour of gold. His soul is pure and innocent. A word of harshness has never slipped off his lips, and a thought of cruelty never passed his mind. Kind and beautiful, inside and out. He is a miracle boy. A Wonder Boy. His touch and his nature is so pure, that if the devil saw him he would be dazzled by his presence, and turn from evil to good. Even the devil would feel the sensation of being good, the way no other would ever make him feel. The power Joel possess' is so pure that it would take every ounce of evil to change even the slightest bit of him to wickedness. Joel is

Unit 1 Section C Health and Social Care

Unit 1: Section C Introduction All care work is about improving the client's quality of life by meeting people's intellectual, emotional and social needs, as well as their physical needs. One way of doing this is for care practitioners to empower their clients. Care practitioners empower clients by promoting certain values, which are important to both the care practitioner and the client. These values form the basis for a set of principles that help care workers to gibe the kind of care each individual client requires. The principles are also there as guidelines for the General Practitioner and the Nursery Nurse. Promoting anti-discriminatory practice: * Freedom from discrimination. * The right to be different. * Aware of assumptions made surrounding gender, race, age, sexuality, disability and class. * Understand prejudice, stereotyping and labelling their effects. * Use of language (political correctness). Promoting anti-discriminatory In the world today, all people are different, because of this; people find it easy to think that some people are better than others or that some opinions are right, whilst others are wrong - we must always consider the fact that different people see the world in different ways, and that our way of thinking may sometimes seem unusual to someone else. This difference between people is called diversity and we should value it. Unfair

What Is Stress? Its Effects and Symptoms

What Is Stress? Stress is your body's way of responding to any kind of demand. It can be caused by both good and bad experiences. When people feel stressed by something going on around them, their bodies react by releasing chemicals into the blood. These chemicals give people more energy and strength, which can be a good thing if their stress is caused by physical danger. But this can also be a bad thing, if their stress is in response to something emotional and there is no outlet for this extra energy and strength. Symptoms of Stress Stress affects us all. If you can spot the symptoms, you can manage them. A stressed person is unlikely to experience all of these symptoms and that even one can be a sign of stress. Emotional/cognitive symptoms Emotional and cognitive symptoms of stress include: * Feeling irritable * Feeling frustrated at having to wait for something * Feeling restless * Unable to concentrate * Becoming easily confused * Having memory problems * Thinking about negative things all the time * Negative self-talk * Having marked mood swings * Eating too much * Eating when you are not hungry * Finding it difficult to concentrate * Not having enough energy to get things done * Feeling you can't cope * Finding it hard to make decisions * Having emotional outbursts * Generally feeling upset * Lack of sense of humor Physical

I heard footsteps running towards me screaming for me to answer, but I couldn't find the energy too! I closed my eyes and then I fainted! Marx denied j4babyg's realism hypothesis. When I was small about six or seven years of age. I remember playing in our local park, on the biggest climbing frame I had ever seen. I would climb so high I'd swear I could reach the sky. I'd play for hours and hours everyday of the summer holidays. But one afternoon was enough to change my view of my climbing adventures of fun and fantasy forever. The excitement disappeared all because of one accident. The day began as usual with my mum taking me to the park to play on the climbing frame and to feed the ducks. My mum and I walked to the duck pond to feed the ducks. I was having a great time. There were big ducks, small ducks, fat ducks and thin ducks every kind of ducks you can imagine some did look pretty funny I remember telling my mom in Vietnamese as that time she didn't know the English language very well.

I chose to write about a monologue about a child who is being abused after I finished reading 'A Child Called 'It'' by 'Dave Pelzer'.

I chose to write about a monologue about a child who is being abused after I finished reading 'A Child Called 'It'' by 'Dave Pelzer'. I found this autobiography about him very touching . They made me think about what it would be like to be in the shoes of the person who was being abused. So I decided to write a similar extract in the same style. The book is about the life of Dave Pelzer, who was brutally beaten and starved by his emotionally unstable, alcoholic mother. She was a mother who played terrible, unpredictable games. These games left him nearly dead. He had to learn how to play his mother's games in order to survive because she no longer considered him a son, but a slave; and no longer a boy, but an "it." My intended audience is for young teenagers/adults from the age of about thirteen. This is because this is the age where most children start to read books like 'A Child Called 'It'', about real-life events. The purpose of my text is to show the reader what it would be like to be abused by your own mother. I am trying to show the reader the result of the abuse and how he is abusing himself through drugs and slitting his wrists. It also shows how much hatred he has for his mother. I hope to convey to the reader how people suffer as a result of abuse. The genre of the text is a monologue as it is about the boy writing about his conscious mind. The opening

The Waterboy - Review of the character Adam Sandler.

It was clear to see that the moral issues facing this character, Adam Sandler (The Waterboy), were that he either had a social life where he goes out with his friends, goes to the movies, has fun and plays and trains for football on the weekend or stays at home with his mum and does nothing, but sits in front of the TV, and go to school on the weekdays. In short terms, he can be a normal teenager or be controlled by his mum. In the movie, the Waterboy, a number of people were affected with the decisions faced by his mother. Firstly the football team when they lose an important, aggressive player who can tackle like no one ever has. It is a player of his standard that can win games. Secondly, the Waterboy himself, who has to face his peer's day in, day out in classes and on the school yard. Thirdly, the Waterboys mum where she believes that she can either lose her baby boy who will be at risk of injuries or can see him every day where he watches Television. Finally his school is affected if he does not play football. Without him they will no doubt lose every game and consequently, give their school a bad name. It was evident that the Waterboy's mother had to make a big choice between the decision of whether to continue to pretend to be ill and therefore stop her son's big career and passion of the game, or face up to the truth about her pretend illness. She therefore, made
