Hiroshima




1) In this picture I see an empty playground. Maybe after school or during recess the playground is filled with tons of kids. Kids that come here after working hard in school and they slide down the slide and forget their worries. Little girls jumping rope and playing their hand games while boys are playing basketball and tag.



2) In this picture I see a destroyed Hall. This hall probably had a president, a VP, all the way down to janitors. Now its all gone lives probably were lost. People who had family, friends maybe even children died. In the destruction caused by the Atomic Bombing.






3) In this picture I see the imprint of a person. The reason the imprint is there is because he was so close to were the bomb was dropped that he kind of vanished it was so hot but his shadow left an imprint on the wall. I'm not really sure on what to feel about that. It blows my mind! I wonder how that must of felt. There aren't even an body remains.





4) In this picture I see a women crying while holding her baby. In back of the women is her village and the village is on fire. She is crying because she is hurt and in pain. Her house was probably lost in the fire maybe even her family was lost in the fire. That's what I see in the picture.

Views on Abortion

1)I am pro-life. I think that abortion should be illegal because in a way I feel that abortion is a way for women and men to not take responsibility for their actions. I also believe apart of being "ready" is to consider the possibility of getting pregnant. The final reason I believe abortion should be illegal is because I don't think a baby should have to pay for someone else's actions.


2)In the picture to the right the women (Leslee Unruh) in the abortion hurts T-shirt said " She had an abortion herself 29 years ago - and has regretted it ever since."

3)I agree with this picture 100% because I believe abortion hurts women. I also think that you will regret getting and abortion. I think that you should not get an abortion because you could end up like Leslee Unruh regretting 29 years later.

4) “A woman who willingly has sexual intercourse knows that she takes the risk of bringing a fetus/moral person into existence, therefore the woman has a duty of care to the fetus/moral person. Then she should allow the resulting fetus/moral person to be born therefore she should not abort the fetus/moral person.”

5).” I agree with this statement because when you have sexual intercourse you are taking the risk of having a baby. The parents have a duty to take care of the baby. I also agree because scientifically that baby is 50% you and if you get an abortion you are deleting 50% of yourself.

Powerful Pictures

To me this picture was most powerful because I see perseverance. I think this picture is about the train pushing through the snow so it can get to its destination. The train also looks like its having trouble getting there but keeps going. The message that I see in this picture is even though the train may look big and awkward like it doesn't belong. Its still pushing through the snow and its going to make it to its destination despite what others think or say. This picture relates to my life because at times I feel awkward. Like don't belong but I'm still going to persevere and get to where I'm going. There may be obsticals in the way but no one said it would be easy. Once I get to where I'm going I'll find somewhere else to go, some other way to better myself and get stronger because that is my real goal my real destination.
