I didn’t mind, I did not wait all that time in high school for us to finally be together as a couple and not have the relationship work. We changed our Facebook status that we were officially a couple. It was an explosion of “It’s about time! ”, “I knew it! ”, and “I told you it would happen eventually! ” We didn’t care though because we were just happy that our dream had finally come true. A month passed and it was our one month anniversary. We went out to dinner and had an amazing time together. That same night he took me to his home and I met his entire family.

Since then me and his family have gotten along very well and we are practically like family. We definitely enjoyed that week together but he had to go back and I wouldn’t see him until May. My birthday came along and it happened to fall on a Saturday, which was nice because I planned to have a party. Isaac drove all the way home just for my birthday and surprised me. He called me before and said that he had sent a present. Then at around five in the afternoon he called and said that my gift has arrived and I had to open the door, sure enough it was him with a bouquet of flowers.
Topic: friendship

I cried of joy, no one had ever done something like that for me. It was an awesome way to celebrate my birthday. The relationship has been going very well, and I’m positive that it will continue to stay like that. It just comes to show that that myth about how dating your best friend is bad isn’t always true. It can happen to anyone, and yes it doesn’t work out for some people, but in my case it worked out for the better. As I said before, I don’t think we were meant to be best friends, just something more.

During my 18 years, I’ve learned how important family is. Your family will always be there for you no matter what. My family supports me in everything I do. All their time and money cannot express how much they love me because love is more than any of that. Love between families is a special bond of time, laughs, smiles and memories. Love is something that family doesn’t have to say to each other because we already know and I am blessed to have a family that loves me in every way possible.

To Kill A Mockingbird had multiple relationships and interactions including the following; Jem and Scout, Scout and Dill, Scout and Boo Radley, and that sense of trust and well being between Atticus and Tom Robinson. Romeo and Juliet is sort of a given as an example of this theme but it adds even more to the equation, it adds love. Lastly, 12 Angry Men showed a lot of trust. In the way that the young boy must trust the Jurors to judge fairly, and how all of the other jurors must trust Juror 8’s theories of innocence for the defendant.

Although these four stories share different types of friendship and trust it is still just as important of a theme in all of them. The Odyssey has been dated back as far as the ninth century B. C. , yet still friendship and trust seemed to have been just as important. Arguably the most famous quote from the book is, “There is nothing nobler or more admirable than when two people who see eye to eye keep house as husband and wife, confounding their enemies and delighting their friends” (Unknown).

’ (10, 286-290) This shows not only the valued trait of bravery, but it shows loyalty and friendship that e would knowingly risk his life to save his crewmembers. Although this book was originally written thousands of years ago, it shows trust and friendship to be just as important as it is now perceived in today’s world. 12 Angry Men only got past 5 pages because of the fact that Juror 8 trusted the defendant enough to at least give him a fair chance. The first vote count for guilty/not guilty was 11 to 1 in favor of guilty, based solely on observations and the race of the accused party. The other Jurors didn’t trust him because of their personal prejudice.
Topic: friendship

The following quote by Juror 8 shows that even our court system is based off of trust It’s always difficult to keep personal prejudice out of a thing like this. And wherever you run into it, prejudice always obscures the truth. I don’t really know what the truth is. I don’t suppose anybody will ever really know. Nine of us now seem to feel that the defendant is innocent, but we’re just gambling on probabilities – we may be wrong. We may be trying to let a guilty man go free, I don’t know. Nobody really can. But we have a reasonable doubt, and that’s something that’s very valuable in our system.

No jury can declare a man guilty unless it’s sure. (Steinbeck 82) Juror 8 had enough trust in a man that he didn’t even know that he put himself against the rest of the jury because of some reasonable doubt. Juror 4 gave us this next quote to explain himself after he switched his vote to ‘not guilty’ This gentleman has been standing alone against us. Now he doesn’t say that the boy is not guilty, he just isn’t sure. Well it’s not easy to stand alone against the ridicule of others, so he gambled for support and I gave it to him. I respect his motives. (Steinbeck 16) Good 3

Juror 4 not only trusted Juror 8’s motives in trying to find out the truth in the case. But he started a friendship which is shown again later when they exchange names after the case is concluded. Even a book such as 12 Angry Men, in which none of the characters have ever met before, shows that trust and friendship plays an important role in our every day lives. The novel To Kill A Mockingbird shows different types of friendship and trust than the past two books, yet it’s just as important in every way. When people think of friendship and trust they think of their ‘best friend’.

Most don’t think of the general use of the term. Sometimes it takes a young girl such as Scout to make us realize these things, “Neighbors bring food with death and flowers with sickness and little things in between” (Lee 293). She goes on to say that Boo Radley, their neighbor, had done several nice things to them and they have failed to repay him. They had never talked in their lives yet Scout had the general sense of friendship that she felt the need to be fair and nice to everyone. The second use of the theme trust is probably the most important anyone will ever have to deal with.

Atticus Finch is a lawyer defending a black man in an extremely racist county, yet he has enough pride to stand up and actually defend the man despite what the rest of the town thinks. His philosophy is as follows They’re certainly entitled to think that, and they’re entitled to full respect for their opinions,” said Atticus, “but before I can live with other folks I’ve got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn’t abide by majority rule is a person’s conscience. (Lee 114) Sure if others break your trust it is a hard thing to go through.
Topic: friendship

But one’s conscience can haunt a person for what seems like an eternity. People should always trust themselves, and be confident in a decision before they make it. To Kill A Mockingbird presented types of friendship that are seldom brought to our attention, and they are just as important if not more than the types of trust shown in the two previous books. Good 4 The final novel in which friendship and trust were shown to the utmost was Romeo and Juliet. This is the tragic love tale that starts as a great friendship between two lovers with abounding trust in each other.

Juliet makes it clear that trust for her is no game when. When Romeo says he swears by the moon she replies by saying Jul. O, swear not by the moon, the inconstant moon, That monthly changes in her circled orb, Lest that thy love prove likewise varies (Shakespeare Act II scene 2) If one swears by something as big and important as the moon then very few would comprehend that the moon changes so frequently. Trust is an important thing, but it must also be understood that trust being broken is not always one’s fault.
Topic: friendship

There are occasions where life takes unexpected turns that change everything. Friar Lawrence played a rather large role in the love of Romeo and Juliet. The thing that some call ‘fate’ left Romeo dead because information had not reached him. Friar was left to say, “A greater power than we can contradict Hath thwarted our intents” (Shakespeare Scene V Act 3). So there are times when promises and friendships can be broken because of events that are neither persons fault, so sometimes one must resort to mercy and understanding for broken trust.
Topic: friendship

Romeo and Juliet shows this as well as it could possibly be shown. It’s clear that the four novels show extremely different forms of friendship and trust. Yet they all thoroughly presented aspects that are equally important in fully understanding the concepts. Whether it’s risking your life for your friend, saving a life as a Juror that trusted that the man could be innocent, trusting one’s self, or accepting the fact that sometimes things are out of your control. Trust and friendship shouldn’t be just a figment of books we read, it should be an ongoing theme in our every day lives.

Your partners will each have their own reasons for getting involved. They will each have their own ideas about what they would like to take from the project. Make sure that you are aware of what each partner wants to get out of the partnership and agree on shared priorities. Ensure that a partnership is mutually beneficial – that way everyone will pull together to make it a success.

My best friends are the most tremendous friends I could ever ask for. I can talk to them about anything, or not say anything at all. We support each other in what the other does. We can be apart for so long but when we see each other again, it’s like they never left. I think that friendship is more essential than romantic love. You have the comforts that only a best friend can give you, the care and concern from friends, and even if you lose or grow apart from a friend, it can help you become a better friend.

For a while, I felt as if she was one of my only friends and I was grateful for her friendship. We’ve been there for each other through the tears as well as the laughs of life. I can also talk to her about anything. Without my best friends, I don’t know where I would be in life. A quote by Henri Nouwen says, “When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand.
Topic: friendship

The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. ” Sometimes, you can never know what a friend is experiencing or what to say to them when they’re sorrowful. Sometimes, the best thing you can do is to just be there for them, just to listen. Kevin and Ivie have done that for me many times. More times than I can count, after I tell Kevin about a situation, he gives me impeccable advice on how to handle it.
Topic: friendship

I’ve been there for Ivie to vent to me, whether it is she’s dismal or annoyed. Most of the time, I never know what to tell her, so I just sit there and listen. Although, that usually ends up being what she needs. Not advice or kind words, just someone to listen and try to understand how she’s feeling. If my friends didn’t care for me, then Kevin and Ivie wouldn’t always listen to my struggles. If I didn’t care for my friends, I wouldn’t listen to their struggles. “Rare as is true love, true friendship is rarer. ” says Jean de La Fontaine.

Although, in life, we become devoid of friends because of something irrational or we grow apart from them, it can be a heartbreaking. You trusted this person and then they left you without an explanation. From my experience, it may be sad, but it’s a good thing in a way. You learn that you need to change somehow and become a better friend. Maybe you lost a friend because you didn’t listen to them or you didn’t communicate efficiently, you quarreled with them over something irrational, or even having to choose between friends.

I’ve lost many friends, probably because I never really saw them outside of school, when school ended we didn’t really stay in touch, and I even had to choose between my two best friends, at the time. I’ve learned from losing friends that you have to communicate, hangout with them outside of school; without that the friendship fades. I hope that I have finally found my true friends. I think that friendship is more essential than romantic love. You have the comforts that only a best friend can give you, the care and concern from friends, and even if you lose or grow apart from a friend, it can help you become a better friend.

I’ve lost friends, but I’ve gained the best friends I could ask for. I realize though that not everyone has friends like I do. I think if everyone were nice to one another as well as befriending others, we could all have best friends who make our lives wonderful, perhaps even more worth living.

Each friendship is unique, and there doesn’t exist any rules which we have to stick to. The key answer is hidden in the ability of each of us to be real humans and show sincere emotions. It is true that when people have someone to share ideas with, speak on interesting for both topics, gossip a bit, this enhances the feeling of one’s necessity in this world. Understanding that we are special for somebody just because we are who we are influences our self-esteem immensely.

What contribution to the novel is made by the character Moira? Moira is a main influential character throughout the novel especially to Offred. During this novel I am going to look at the importance of Moira and her as a character, focusing on her opinions, rebellions and her relationship with Offred. Also how the role in Gilead leads to her feministic actions to escape to a better place that most women only fantasize about. As Offred’s best friend from college, Moira is an opinionated, strong lesbian and a dependable feminist.
Topic: friendship

We see this when Offred when meets Moira who has been recaptured and is working as a prostitute at Jezebel’s, servicing the Commanders. Margaret Atwood by placing Moira not as a handmaid but as a prostitute represents an alternative to the lower subservience and acceptance of the fate that most of the Handmaids adopt as she rejected the position of a handmaid once again showing her strength and disagreement with the society unlike Offred’s involvement.
Topic: friendship

Moira’s relationship with Offred characterizes female friendship throughout the novel. The kind of relationship that Moira and Offred maintain from college onward does not exist in Gilead. Gilead claims to promote solidarity between women, but in fact it only produces suspicion, hostility, and petty cruelty. Looking at Offred we see how she continuously thinks of her old friend allowing her to escape from her unpleasant reality. We see this when Offred says, “Moira, breezing into my room. ” The use of the verb, “Breezing.
Topic: friendship

” Implies to the reader that to Offred thinks of Moira much like a breath of fresh air in this case when she not only enters the room but when she enters Offred’s thoughts reminding her of a better time escaping her from the harsh reality. This is why they have such a thoughtful friendship as they save each other from difficult time helping each other through Gilead society even though Margaret Atwood has created them to have contrasting roles in the modern society and these are seen in Offred’s memories.
Topic: friendship

In Offred’s flashbacks, Moira also embodies female resistance to Gilead as she is a lesbian, which means that she rejects male-female sexual interactions, the only kind that Gilead values. This is why because of these objections she is the character in the novel whom everyone idolise as she continuously rebels and she tries escapes giving hope for others which they are scared to achieve themselves. For Moira’s first attempt at escaping from the Centre, she is beaten with steel cables on both of her feet and the other handmaids have to carry her because she can’t walk.
Topic: friendship

This enables the Aunts to warn everyone that they are very honest about their willingness to use violence to accomplish their goals as we see when it is said, “Remember. For our purposes your feet and your hands are not essential. ” This surprises both Offred and Moira as they are unaware how well respected the Aunts are. They feel this because from before Moira explains, “What I didn’t know of course was that in those early days the Aunts and even the Re-education Centre was hardly common knowledge. It was all secret at first, behind barbed wire.

In those days people travelled a lot in a different way to how we travel now. In those days migrant workers took a trip lavish ranges looking for a task. There are various themes in which are based throughout the entire book, such as isolation, happiness, nature, dreams and truth: – Which even lead to disaster. Many of the people in this novel have really lonely lives primarily due to the fact that they are migrant workers and as we understand they don’t have time to make any good friends or have any time to spend with their families.

2 great examples would be Candy due to the fact that of his age and Scoundrels due to the fact that of his race. This novel includes two main characters George and Lennie, who are an anomalous pair of migrant employees that look after each other. They are completely the reverse of each other. George is the one who has the communicative face and thinks about all of their issues and ideas and informs the other one what to do.
Topic: friendship

Resembling this all of the time, in what ever the story it is, always pictures that you would be the little fast one with sharp features. Lennie is the guy that is tall and always does what he is informed and has an ill-defined, strong, and effective body and does not know his own strength. Steinbeck describes him as the one with no shape in his face and his body. Lennie drags his feet when he strolls and acts like an animal. In the descriptions of these 2 men their appearance is totally various. George dresses cool and tidy, while Lennie gowns extremely shabby.
Topic: friendship

Just by the description of George and Lennie, you can clearly see that Lennie is the child out of the two men, as you can tell how he talks and acts around George and throughout the whole book. Being a man Lennie lacks a lot of language, which I think that he never attended a lot of school. Examples “look George, look what I done!” this is immature language. This kind of behaviour makes George the father type figure, so he would be the defender. John Steinbeck relates to Lennie, in the theme of nature, by describing his walk, and some of the things he does in relation to the animals like the way he drinks from the lake as Steinbeck describes him as a horse that puts its whole head into the water and slurps. This links in to the theme of natures, because of the use of animal descriptions that Steinbeck uses throughout the book, which is very important to this novel because in the beginning of the book, Nature was introduced straight away.
Topic: friendship

Steinbeck’s describes the surroundings in such detail, that he uses a whole page to describe the forest (which is in the beginning of the book) which gives the readers a good imaginative view of what Steinbeck is writing. George and Lennie have an abnormal relationship. They are two friends, one needs the other more .George often gets very frustrated towards Lennie, which also shows that George cares. George loves Lennie very much and will always be a friend to him and so does Lennie. Lennie could not live without him because George does everything for him. Between George and Lennie, George is the one that is mainly in control, he cooks, finds them jobs finds them a place to sleep and because of this, they always travel together, where one goes, the other one follows like a duck and her ducklings.
Topic: friendship

George travels with Lennie because Lennie would not be able to survive on his own. These two men share the same dreams but George knows in reality, it is not going to happen. Later on in the story Candy has now been introduced to the book as the old swapper. He is tall, stooped shoulders and has white whiskers. When you first see him, he is very friendly, although he is a little weary of newcomers. His only friend is his dog that he has had since he was a little boy which symbolises that he is very lonely which refers to the theme of loneliness. When he gets to know people, he begins to trust them; he opens up and strikes a conversation with his new friends just as he did with Lennie. A little further on in the story as they become very close together and even share each others dream. In the future he looses both his dog and Lennie and can’t really prevent Lennie’s death but tries to prevent his dog’s death, but this fails.
Topic: friendship

This shatters Candy’s dreams because he cannot share his dream with his long companion. In Chapter 4, Crooks is introduced. He is the only coloured (black) person on the ranch and this is where the theme of loneliness comes into play. Crooks is a stable buck. He has a crooked spine, and his eyes lay deep in his head, he is lined with deep black wrinkles and has thin tightened lips. Again relating to the theme of loneliness, Crooks lives by himself in a shed because he is the only Black man, this is why he can afford to leave all of his belongings lying around. He has got his own collection of items like books, shoes and his own copy for the California civil code which indicates that he knows his rights and does not want to be taken advantage of. Eventually Crooks and Lennie are talking about if Lennie could live without George and about crook’s childhood explaining why his father never let him play with other kids and why he is so lonely.
Topic: friendship

When he is speaking with Lennie about his childhood, he is speaking like it is still happening or it has recently happened. This is a very similar story to his life at that present time. Being the only coloured man, Crooks is treated as an outcast, as racism was very high in those days which forces him to spend his time reading while the others are playing card games. Crooks become very bitter due to the fact that everyone ill treats him which makes him feel hurt. In the next chapter Curley is introduced to the story. He is the boss’s son, he has a wife, she has dark hair that reaches down to her shoulders, her eyes are quiet close together and has pink small lips with very pale skin. The book does not mention anything about her name which suggests that she does not know who her parents are and does not have an identity.
Topic: friendship

She behaves like she is not Curley’s wife and that she is single so she flirts with a lot of the men behind Curly’s back. She would say things like “now that we’re alone what do you want to do”. To try and tempt the man. In doing this, all the men try as hard as they can to stay away from her because they know that she is trouble and know how Curley feels about his wife. Curley’s wife does this because she wants attention, again, related to the theme of loneliness. All the farmers speak really bad of her because of her being flirtatious they also are frightened to talk to her because they fear Curley, and he would think that something is going on; plus he has the authority to get them fired or to shoot them. She married Curly to get some sort of status and to have an identity but she never liked him anyway. When she describes her life on the ranch, she says that her life is boring, that no one pays any attention to her and that she gets treated like a little girl.
Topic: friendship

Curley’s wife often dreams about herself becoming an actress. At the end of the novel, her loneliness causes Lennie’s death. Before Lennie’s death, Curley’s wife and Lennie were talking in the barn whilst everyone else was playing games. They began talking to each other about each others dreams. They both talked about each others dreams and what they wanted to do in their life. Lennie has a fascination of stroking things. He was stroking Curley’s wife’s hair, he began to stroke her hair so hard, that he lost control and broke her neck. This has a big impact on George, Lennie and Candy’s relationship, as Curley wants to kill Lennie. As a result to this, George has to kill Lennie before he gets killed by Curly. Loneliness will always end in tragedy and dreams will rarely become reality. True Friendship never ends.

S. Agriculture Department’s agricultural biotechnology advisory committee. Genetic modification (GM) involves exchanging or splicing genes of unrelated species that cannot naturally swap with each other and enthusiastic scientists say the applications are almost limitless. The species can be vastly different, for example, inserting scorpion toxin or spider venom genes into maize and other food crops as a ‘natural pesticide’ to prevent insects and birds from feeding on the plants, or fish antifreeze genes into tomatoes.
Topic: friendship

So this is the positive side of the argument, however, others do not feel the same – recently trail GM crops have been destroyed even in ‘sleepy’ Devon in a trails site at Dartington. Fears were raised even higher because an internationally acclaimed organic farm was nearby. Insect or the wind could have carried genetically modified pollen to other farms thus creating unwanted and unsuspected mutations. Not everyone agrees that GM foods will necessarily become the saviour for the world’s hungry and people insist that there is, as yet, no conclusive evidence of the benefits of GM.
Topic: friendship

The whole GM issue creates strong emotions, particularly among the more sceptic opponents to the technology who have been known to march across fields and rip up fledgling test plants, demanding that governments put a stop to “Frankenstein” foods by banning the import and the commercial use of GM crops. Apart from their charge that nobody yet knows how safe GM crops are, they also accuse powerful biotechnology multinational companies of using poor countries as a ‘dumping ground’ for products, which have failed to sell to lucrative but sceptical European markets.

Already there are specific examples – there are problems with Genetically Engineered Soya Bean and Maize Imports. The first main genetically modified food was a tomato paste, introduced with careful consumer consultation, clearly labelled. It sold well until the current furore began. In 1996 the European Union [EU] accepted the import of US genetically modified Soya bean and maize, staple commodities which go untracked into a large number of processed foods. The US companies refused to label or segregate the new products, more concerned with winning markets than public attitudes.

Ordinary people ended up eating modified food without knowing it, with any tangible benefit to them, and having no real say in the decisions. This major failure of democracy resulted in a huge consumer backlash. It also raised questions of environmental risks of GM crops spreading genes to other species and possible loss of biodiversity. As can be seen sharing understanding of the risks and labelling GM tainted or enhanced products has not happened automatically – there is too much money at stake. However, we should consider these issues carefully. There are risks far more complex than a blanket moratorium would solve.

Different crops vary enormously over questions like gene flow [e. g. due to mode of pollination or unrestricted movement of GM animals for breeding] or wild relatives, which might become weeds or pests. So a plant like oil seed rape merits much more careful attention than other less genetically promiscuous species. Talking to ecological scientists, it seems clear that five years of research is not going to give a generic answer to tell us whether “GM is safe” or not. We know so little about either the ecology or safety of normal foods that we often do not have a yardstick to make meaningful comparison with GM foods.

Much better than a crude moratorium is to be precautionary but on a case-by-case basis, rather than assume that everything is equally risky. Rather than swallow whole the current green position on GM foods, we need to recognise that it is just as easy to exaggerate risks as it is to ignore them or pretend they aren’t there. Current EU labelling is only mandatory if you can detect genes or the proteins in the food, but this only addresses a small minority of the concerns. If someone objects to GM food on ethical or religious grounds or to the effect of the crop on the environment, present labelling misses the point completely.

Here is a fundamental injustice, which the Government has done very little to address. Genetic Engineering, Friend or Foe? Is still a question to be answered – the debate will continue, as will the research that pushes the boundaries of science. The answer lies in the far future!

This passage is an extremely important part to the play, as it is when Rosalind and Celia decide to leave and go to the Forest of Arden. Celia’s father, Rosalind’s uncle threatens Rosalind and banishes her from his court. We see, in this passage, just how close Rosalind and Celia are, not just as cousins but as friends too. It is easy to tell that they are friends but all friends have their problems. In this case Celia is a very loving and caring cousin who appears to want to do anything for her friend, whereas Rosalind seems a little bit more laid back and relaxed.
Topic: friendship

We can tell just how much Celia cares for her cousin, she is willing to dress up in old and ragged clothes for her, and leave her rich lifestyle; ‘I’ll put myself in poor and mean attire, And with a kind of umber smirch my face;’ Rosalind doesn’t even appear to be very grateful to her cousin and simple over takes her idea; ‘Were it not better, Because that I am more than common tall, That I did suit me all points like a man? ‘ She is getting very excited and worked up about the plan and the roles seem to change.
Topic: friendship

‘I have more cause’ Even though the roles have changed, it doesn’t change Celia’s love for her cousin, she now begins to questions Rosalind on the idea as if it were here plan all along; ‘What shall I call thee when thou art a man? ‘ She appears to want to do anything for Rosalind and is clearly risking a lot. Celia is willing to anger her father by going to her uncle, Rosalind’s father; ‘To seek my uncle in the Forest of Arden’ Celia doesn’t want Rosalind to leave and attempt it alone, ‘And do not seek to take your change apon you’ She is saying she doesn’t want her to take sole responsibility for her change of state.

Again the love Celia has for Rosalind is astonishing, considering Rosalind doesn’t quiet return the love in the way Celia wants. The language in this passage is very expressive and moving. The language Celia uses to express her feelings for Rosalind and how she doesn’t want her to go is beautiful and dramatic; she sets the atmosphere very well. The passage is in verse and very emotional for both of the girls. Celia’s rhetorical questions turn the mood from depressed to passionate; ‘Shall we be sund’red? Shall we part, sweet girl? ‘ We can get a real sense of the love Celia holds for Rosalind.
Topic: friendship

When Rosalind’s sprits are lifted by Celia’s plan she begins to articulate her feelings in a strong way; ‘a boar-spear in my hand; and -in my heart Lie there what hidden woman’s fear there will-‘ The pause before ‘in my heart’ and the enjambment, stresses on the word heart which is what this passage is mainly about, Rosalind’s love in her heart for Orlando. The passage showed me a type of love between Rosalind and Celia; you could almost describe it as unrequited love. Celia is so desperate to please Rosalind that she is willing to do anything and I think we can see how far she is willing to go for Rosalind.

This is a very touching story of the friendship of two men who found themselves on the margins of society and on the verge of economic impoverishment during the Great Depression in the 1930s.  The story begins with the appearance of two workers who on foot cross an immense country in search of work. One of them is George Milton, a squat man, who is looking at the world through the prism of cynicism and mistrust. His companion is Lennie Hillie. He is a burly and sturdy man, to whom George refers as a fearsome brother and exhorts him to the truth.

George and Lennie are rather unusual companions. The literary analysis of the image of Lennie immediately allows us to draw a parallel with the image of Benjy Compson from the book “Noise and Fury” by William Faulkner. This hero also was a child in his soul, but an adult from the outside. The similarity can also be evoked by the image of John Coffey from Stephen King’s “The Green Mile,” so vividly embodied in the film of the same name. John Coffey is as great as Lennie, suffering from a mental disorder, but endowed with something bright: Coffey is an unusual talent, and Lennie is kind and naive that is rare in our times.

George and Lennie cherish one common dream: they want to acquire their own land, grow their crops there, take care of living creatures, and most importantly – Lennie wants to grow and feed rabbits. But for this, they need to earn money. That’s why they are looking for a new California ranch, where they will be given shelter and work because certain circumstances forced them to leave their previous place of work. In this episode, Steinbeck acts as a fancy fisherman. At the beginning of the story, he puts the bait on the hook, only casually mentioning that friends have to leave their previous place of work soon; then throws this bait, telling the story in the previous city, when Lennie was attracted by the red dress of one girl and decided to touch it without any sexual overtones, but was accused of rape; and after that he skillfully cuts by accompanying his story with an event with the wife of Curley on the farm.
Topic: friendship

The culmination of the whole work is tied to Lennie’s love for everything soft and pleasant to touch. He wanted to touch the dress of the girl, stroked the mice and newborn puppies, and also stroked the silky hair of Curley’s wife, and at her own request, but due to her mental inferiority, he was not aware of all his actions. The woman, frightened by how much Lennie’s excessive attention is paid to her hair, tries to escape, but in the strong hands of the mighty, she is a helpless puppy, whom Lennie literally “fell in love with” to death. All he has now is to seek escape again.

Unfortunately, George is well aware that his friend can not live any longer. Like a blood brother, he continues to take care of a beloved companion, he chooses the only painless way out of the situation: warning the bloodthirsty violence over a friend, George shoots Lennie and save him from the brutal massacre of the crowd, which most likely will end with a painful death, or from a madhouse where Lennie will suffer for the rest of his days. It is hardly possible to underestimate the tragedy of this episode, and all charges of lack of humanity on the part of George can be generated only by a superficial attitude to the author’s ingenious text. Lennie’s death is not murder. The relationship between George and Lennie is the personification of true partnership and “inhuman” humanity.

“Of Mice and Men” is the story of the triumph of true friendship and fellowship. In his short story, Steinbeck, probably like no other writer, brings the life of poor and destitute people to a new, symbolic level. The reader can definitely find in it a deep experience of the tragic feelings, as well as a message to the fact that, contrary to any incidents, life goes on. Through the finest and most sophisticated smears, Steinbeck depicts a verbal picture in which this deep-seated aspiration of the working class of America is veiled to the realization of one’s own aspirations and hopes. The ending of the novel is painfully tragic. Besides this, avoiding dogmatic and formalized forms and postulates, the story reveals the vices that prevailed in that society: racism, sexism, intolerance, prejudices towards mentally limited people. He describes all these flaws within the framework of absolutely natural and human forms.

Healthy and smooth relationship in a society is maybe one of the more vital elements that help in developing a progressive neighborhood of people. As social beings, individuals requires to communicate and relate with other individuals in order to attain specific needs. It is for that reason essential to understand how good relationship through friendship can be developed. A single person is distinct from another making his views, personality and habits different from each and every person he relates with. This is the factor why establishing strong relationship can be very challenging.

This makes them able to relate and develop friendship quickly than the rest. Sometimes, one can observe that particular people can easily start and maintain excellent discussion while the rest shy away from needing to communicate and converse with individuals they do not understand. For this reason, it is very important that individuals try to be more friendly and apply more effort in building great friendship. It is only by trying to build relationship that a real one can be developed because if one must avoid others or perhaps avoid a conversation, it may be tough to view that a relationship be developed.

As it is frequently stated, “no man is an island”. We require other individuals to survive as much as others require us to satisfy their requirements too. In this regard, is ends up being obvious how much friendship is very important and how much it is similarly important to comprehend the methods on how strong friendship can be built. Thus, even if one feels that it is tough to develop friendship, it is substantial that a person will comprehend the aspect of effort in building string relationship in spite of the truth that certain friendships can be developed easily.
