A Hero's Journey

As the car was in motion on the way to where I would be staying I rolled the window down. Something other than the tall green grasses and canopy trees caught my attention. I finally started to see some scattered buildings, hotels, and restaurants. The city started to seem more urbanized, that wasn 't the only infrastructure that I saw, more was yet to come. As we went deeper into the rural areas the buildings disappeared and the sidewalks started to become more deteriorated.

Departure is the portion of the book before the hero goes on their journey. This includes events such as, the call to adventure, answering the call and crossing the threshold. David and Ryder both receive a call to adventure because, without one they would not be able to go on their journey and prove they are a hero. "Just to be on the safe side, then, it might be best if the four of you and Petra were to make your arrangements to run for it at a moment 's notice, if it becomes necessary" (Wyndham 121), when the group decides it 's best if they run away into the Fringes before anyone finds out about their deviation is the call to adventure because, it sets his path for his journey.

“Toronto existing in layers” (Mandel) and such is the impression of Miranda as she ventures once more into the vast city of Toronto, after her time in New York. Upon her arrival in the city, a pang of nostalgia hits her as she reminisces her first arrival: “she’d always liked the descent into this city, the crowded towers by the lakeshore, the way an infinite ocean of suburbia rushed inward and came to a point at the apex of the CN Tower…the city had shocked her with its vastness when she’d arrived…” (Mandel). Such descriptions might appear as mere imageries of the city, for these are common sights—the crowded city, the suburbs, and the CN--one can see when travelling into the city of Toronto. It is a familiar setting and something that is

It begins with the idea of a protective bubble, encompassing the city and shielding it from harm. He says, “We always knew the bubble would burst” and “We imagined…no one will be hurt” to set the tone of where his

I had asked God to show me His love for me like if He needed to prove it. In my questioning and in my doubts, I made it seem as if I didn't trust Him. He took my hand and led me to a crowded street. I could barely see through all the crowd. In the distance I could see that it was He Himself who the crowd was after. He had a crown of thorns on His head, and a cross upon His fragile back. The blood dripped from His body, but none of the ones screaming at Him or spitting on Him seemed to care. They wanted Him dead. I cried out loud, and didn't want to see anymore, but God told me to look at the proof that I wanted to see. I looked at the terrible scene once again, and this time they were nailing Him to the cross. They lifted up the cross,

Conclusion In conclusion, the “Parable of the Sower” portrays cities as places to avoid rather than being sanctuaries due to the lack of safety and the adverse influences of corporations. However, the novel does provide some hope by proving that if we start realizing problems and planning ahead, then, cities could change and become more livable in the future. As more people move to urban areas, the way we plan, manage and develop our cities will be fundamental in creating a fair, safe, healthy and sustainable

Jack stood raised over Zach, ready to bring radiator pipe down onto Zach's head. As Jack winded up to bring the pipe down, Zach stuck his hand up and it hit the radiator pipe. At 17, both of them were evenly matched in strength, but still not superhuman, except for Zach's advantage. There was a large crack and Jack opened his eyes in surprise. The radiator pipe snapped in half as soon as Zach’s hand made contact with the metal pipe. Zach wasted no time, jumped into the air, and roundhouse kicked him hard in the stomach, and almost leveled his ribs. He grabbed the water that they were fighting over and he unfurled his 16-foot black-as-night wings. That was one thing special about Zach. He could fly.

When I first read Marco Polo’s description of Zenobia, my mind was immediately intrigued. When he described a city on “on high pilings, with many platforms and balconies placed on stilts at various heights,” (35) my mind instantly recalled Salvador Dalí’s painting Elephants. These elephants had large, wide, hefty looking bodies, with coned houses on their backs, and small, stick-like legs.

All three of these classes must work in tandem with one another to achieve a more successful city. For this to occur, these classes must become balanced with one another. Furthermore, the
