HUM/105 World Mythology version 3

/in /by

Reference (DO NOT ANSWER, THIS IS FOR REFERENCE TO THE ORIGINAL QUESTION). 

“Identify some people you consider real or personal heroes. What characteristics do your contemporary heroes share with their mythical counterparts?  How do they differ, if at all?

Please include one specific comparison between a contemporary hero and a traditional mythical hero.”

Please respond to the following (minimum 120 words):

A person that I consider to be a personal hero is a man named Charles Trippy who is known on YouTube, having been making videos for the last 8/9 years, and the bassist of the band We the Kings for 3 years. I would compare Charles to Hercules in some ways because of the strength both possess to go through any trail that they go through, though for Charles, his strength is emotional and mental not physical. Charles posts his whole life, or what can be seen in 10-12 minutes, including both the good and the bad, including his fight against brain cancer, and now his separation with his wife of three years. Two years ago Charles suffered a seizure while on tour with his band and found out that he had a brain tumor, and after surgery found it was benign. Last year the seizures came back, happening more often, and it was discovered the tumor was back, but this time cancerous.

I see Charles as being similar to Hercules because he pushes through any challenge that is put in front of him, never giving up and no matter how difficult things might seem, he finds a way to get through it and succeed. There are times where it is clear that the stress and everything gets to him and he is just worn down ready to give up, but he always finds something to be positive about. Even with his recent separation, he was still trying to stay positive and seeing it as just a new chapter in his life. More than just his strength to stay optimistic and sharing his struggles with the internet, he connects with others that facing some kind of trouble in their lives, showing that there is always a brighter side and encouraging those to go for their dreams and don’t let anything hold them back.

Assignment 2: Sexual Disconnect 3 Page Paper

/in /by

The last person flaked out on me. 

James and Yelena have been married for 22 years and have three grown children, now out of the house. Sex was never particularly enjoyable for Yelena, primarily because James was uninterested in much foreplay and Yelena felt it was unfeminine to make any sexual demands of her husband. However, because of her love for James, she accommodated his desire for sex two or three times a week, and consistently “faked orgasms.”

James also does not think “a real man” should receive any “help” from his wife to get an erection, even when his erections became less firm and less predictable. As a result, over the last two years, James rarely initiated sex and Yelena felt relieved, thinking she would now be “excused from sex.” Furthermore, she is in perimenopause, and has begun to experience increasingly uncomfortable penetration. Suddenly, James’ vigor and sexual interest has returned with greater intensity than ever. Yelena discovered he was secretly taking Viagra, which he obtained over the Internet.

  • Discuss how effective you think Viagra will be for improving James’ sex life, and why?
  • Suppose Yelena’s discovery that James is using Viagra secretly is the “last straw” for her after years of not addressing her unsatisfying sexual life with him, and she demands that they seek marriage counseling and focus on their sex life. 

    In this case:

    • What part of this dilemma should a counselor point out is Yelena’s responsibility to acknowledge and address? Additionally, what special issues regarding her perimenopause will need to be addressed?
    • What part of this dilemma should a counselor point out is James’ responsibility to acknowledge and address?
  • Discuss specific treatment options for this couple that are supported by the research you learned about in your readings.  

APA Standards must be aplied.

Nature as Teacher

Now that you have read Wordsworth’s “To a Butterfly” and considered what the speaker suggests about the natural world and how he conveys his ideas, you’re ready to consider what you think of these ideas. Respond to the following questions to demonstrate your understanding of the poem, its connection to romanticism, and the applicability of the ideas to modern life.

1. Do you think the speaker (Wordsworth) gains anything by taking the time to observe the butterfly?

2. How does the speaker’s appreciation for the butterfly demonstrate a Romantic view of nature? Use specific examples from the poem to support your response.

3. Do you believe that people today would benefit from the same kind of close observation of nature?  Why or why not? Provide an example from your own life in support of your response.
