Dear Nikhil,

I am very sorry to hear about your father’s death.

Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

I hope everything goes well for you and your families, as you fulfill all the rituals back home in India. One thing that has been bothering me a lot lately and I believe it is very important that I share that with you Nikhil.

Nikhil as you are aware that you have been occupying my mind and soul at all times and you have taken a special place in my life. Mum and Dad love you a lot and we all consider you as part of my family. However, I was shocked and upset when you left me alone and made plans to travel to India with your sister and mum. I felt that I was not important for you as you did not include me in your travel plan. I do realize it is a family trip to fulfill Ashoke’s death ritual.

I don’t know the reason behind your decision but it is very hard for me to accept why I could not travel with you all to India. I believe that I am not important to you anymore.

Much Love, 
Maxine

Banksy (ART) | THEORY OF KNOWLEDGE

Do artists have a moral responsibility to act as a voice for individuals/communities to communicate with the wider world, or for groups/campaigns/ideologies to spread a message? Or, alternatively, do artists actually have a moral responsibility to be objective and stay out of politics, religion, and dogma in order that their art is accessible to everyone? The responsibility of an artist is to highlight the events/moments for the outside world. One of the important features in an artist's career is the ideas and meaning behind their project. Each artwork is made for a particular reason and the meaning of art could be about anything, as it is up to the viewers to interpret and understand it with their own perception. Art can depict anything to an audience because art is a form of personal expression Banksy has captured the interest of art lovers, activists, and graffiti artists around the globe.  His mysterious identity (and refusal to use social media accounts...

Chronicle of a Death Foretold Individual Tasks | ENGLISH LITERATURE

The Role Of Religion The role of religion in the Chronicle of a Death Foretold by Garcia Marquez plays an integral part in the main event of the novella. The society featured in this novel has close ties to the Catholic religion. An important part of the Catholic religion is the belief that women’s virginity should be kept protected until she is married.  A second example is the significance of the church, it is greatly stressed in the novel as it is an important part of the Latin American Communities. This is shown in the novella when the excessive preparations they made for the bishop's visit to the town. This was ironic how they thought the bishop was going to get off the boat this year when he didn't even get off his boat the previous years. The demonstration of strong Catholicism would Angela Vicario secret of her hiding that she was not a virgin when she got married. She was discovered by the Vicario's brother which made the brother decide to kill Santiago Nasar. ...

My name is Joshy. I am 16 years old and I am from New Zealand. Four years ago, I moved from Auckland to the United Arab Emirates and I started IB at Raha International School.  I am very passionate about the Psychology Field and I aspire to become a psychiatrist. My interests are swimming, photography and I love traveling very much.   My mother tongue is Creole(slang version of French) although I can speak a little bit of Arabic.   I feel that literature helps to understand the purpose of a certain text and literature form and explore imagination within the text and the writer. Literature can often make a personal connection with the reader's life, and relate to the characters from the text. I enjoy reading non-fiction type of books as this form of literature helps me to understand the real world around me, or know about the real world situations. A quote I live by is: 'Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will'.
