Speech About Reincarnation

922 Words4 Pages

Do you believe in reincarnation? I believe that after death people reborn with no relation to their past, in another life and body in any place in this world. I think that if you believe in reincarnation will make life more enjoyable, it’s ok not to believe, but if you think about it makes life more fun and it makes sense to life. I meet Nissy; she is one of my classmates at my class English 101W. Nissy is a very lively and bright person, she is an authentic mix of everything she have some African American and Asian running on her blood, but born in Vietnam. Her almond-shape eyes and her light brown skin tell as about her origin. As we start to talk she told me something about her birth and her mother named Rose that captured my attention, reincarnation; a very polemic topic that people over think.
In Vietnam in Rose’s village, Rose had a dream; she was dreaming that a house was burning and she was standing in front of the house. There was a man and a little girl standing, this girl looked alone, she looked confused and disoriented. Nissy’s mother asked the man who was this girl and why she was alone. The man answered that she was dead and that house that was burning was her home, by hearing this Rose notice that there wasn’t anything to do to save her life, so she started to walk away and the girl followed her, the man said to Rose “you are not going to take care of her? She is following you? She wants to go with you!” Rose answered was; “Yes, I will take care of her”

    She recognizes that her own mother regretted giving birth to her, “It saddened her to have given birth to such an item as myself,” (263). The unsettling implication that a woman has given birth to an object, rather than a living, breathing, human being, is made tragic upon realizing that the protagonist views this as fair judgement and in turn she not only accepts this truth as her own but she agrees with it, “I was a thing,” (265). The narrator’s sympathizing view of this cruel impression helps guide the reader in understanding how damaging this type of isolation is to the incapacitated. The isolation resulted in the protagonist genuinely believing that she has no place in society and instead of fighting against the majority she simply took their verisimilitude and made it her

  • Summary: A Dialogue On Personal Identity And Immortality

    In “A Dialogue on Personal Identity and Immortality”, Gretchen Weirob and Sam Miller conduct a philosophical debate about the possibility of a continued existence after death. Weirob argues that she herself cannot exist after death because her identity is composed of her body, rationality, and consciousness. In Derek Parfit’s “Personal Identity” he ponders how the concept of identity works, and how the true nature of our identity affects some of the most important questions we have about our existence. I believe that Velleman did a better job of exploring the idea of identity than Weirob did.

  • Speech About Optimism

    Optimism is hopefulness for the future, and, like me, most people get their optimism from their roots, or how they were brought up as a child. My parents would always remind me from a young age that being pessimistic will not help you achieve your goal, so you might as well be optimistic and try. They have always taught me from a young age, and never denied or doubted, that with optimism comes opportunity, and that optimism is, in fact, the key to success. Over the years, I’ve learned that the more optimistic you are, the more creative you can be. With optimistic attitude, one can generate new ideas and create possibilities to move forward faster and more efficiently than at normal times, due to an open mind.
