Silence

Claudine (1974), directed by John Berry is a movie about a hardworking single mother and her six children who are living on welfare. Between being a working woman, a mother, and a lover all at the same time, Claudine is torn. When she begins seeing a man, Rupert, whom she has to hide from the government, Claudine falls for this man and they both need to make decisions about each other based on finances and welfare. This movie really opened my eyes to all the struggles and true reality that…

“At that point, Mary Maloney simply walked up behind him and without any pause, she swung the big frozen leg of lamb high in the air and brought it down as hard as she could on the back of his head.” From only reading this, the reader is simply astounded. Imagine seeing this comical scene in a movie. Viewers would be left stupefied and full of laughter. “Lamb to the Slaughter” would make a phenomenal movie for teenage audiences and Roald Dahl fans. It consists of all the qualities that are…

Kingston mentions the word silent or silence many times throughout the poem, “…waits silently by the water to pull down a substitute” as well as mentions ghosts or spirits, “A child with no descent line would not soften her life but only trail after her, ghostlike, begging her to give it a purpose” (Pages 1576-1577). She made it known that she would not be silenced, and give the dead a memory. Silence is widely mentioned throughout the story, because of the expected silence and secrecy among the…

Confrontation and Silence My first goal for this semester in the Internship class was to increase my confidence using confrontation and silence in counseling sessions. My initial plans were to utilize a self-rating system and obtain feedback through supervision. These plans did not work out as I had planned because the opportunities to use silence and confrontation were hindered as I saw mostly intakes this semester. I did take the opportunity to use the confrontation and silence when it was…

Iole’s silence, like Aphrodite’s, makes her hard to know even as she is manifestly visible. So, for example, while Deianeira sees her and pities her (312–13, 463–64), she fails in her effort to know her. Instead, she hears the speeches of the two messengers (335–489) and her own ruminations (536–53). Thus Iole’s silence both generates the overabundant words of others and, at the same time, protects her from them: the more speech, the more one moves away from Iole herself…

individuals labors to produce profit, and not compensating them fairly. The second is marginalization, which deals with the idea of powerlessness linked to Marx’s theory of socialism. The third is powerlessness that creates what Freire calls a Culture of Silence. The fourth are Cultural Imperialism that deals with taking the art, music, and literature of the ruling class, and establishing it as the norm. The fifth are Violence, and are probably the most obvious, and visible form of…

Harmony in Silence. I find myself to be most spiritually connected to this piece because silence often provides me with a sense of tranquility and serves as a temporary shelter from the overwhelming sounds of life. Since I was born hearing, I cannot fully say that I have experienced the harmony of silence holistically. I practice meditations to subdue stress and clear my head. Even then, it is still not possible to eliminate every extraneous noise to reach a state of complete silence, since I…

Wall of Silence Journal One Despite all the medical advancement over the years, medical errors continue to negatively affect patient safety. A medical error is defined as a preventable adverse effect of medical care whether evident or harmful to the patient (Medical Scribe Journal, 2017).

When I write,I try to capture in words, the half etched thoughts, the unformed silences ,the vaguely understood swirl of emotions all entangled with and undifferentiated from the chaotic images that flash and disappear. When I visualize, I try to capture,in images this time, those half etched thoughts, those unformed silences,those vaguely understood swirls of emotions entangled with and undifferentiated from the chaotic words that flash and disappear. An image, that has never been a word…
