I recommend it because it goes over the different types of resources we could use without harming the environment.  


Some Ideas Working for this Weekend's Essay

I have a few ideas. One of the topics is looking up the background behind your choice of career. Another is some kind of topic where we research our own topic off topic od what we are going to so in the future. A third would be to choose a theme that we learned throughout our academic career and try to find some examples in the real world.

The Choice

1. A choice refers to the fact that you can either make a really beneficial decision or one that can really damage you. 
2. It is sometimes a forced decision that is made because of family economic troubles and you feel the need to help out, but you find the easy "route" when in reality it is a really windy rollercoaster ride. 
3. The author uses the word "poison" in the first line because he refers to his daughter`s meedications for chemotherapy as flavorless and that it kills non malignant cells. 
4. His daughter wants to play with some toys meant for kids 8 years and older because in her head she believes she is old enough for that and I blame the medicine that the doctor prescribed. 
5. If I might not live to my 30`s, I would at least finish my studies and work for a few, and retire with whatever money I have. 
6. 
7. Suffering isn`t a necessary condition of life because society has placed that feeling upon us with problems such as economics, work, and government. 
8. The author`s way of writing the essay.
