Question

Can anyone give ideas on what story to write for an essay with any of these themes?

1) Courage
2) Misunderstanding
3) Love and Forgiveness
4) Regret
5) Embarrassment
6) Happiness and Pride
7) Disappointment
8) Sadness

Answer 1

Look inside yourself. Have you ever done something that required courage? That created or came about because of a misunderstanding? Have you ever been sad? Or happy and proud? I could pick any one of these words and build an essay because I have experienced all of these things. I'm sure you have too.

Now, which story do you want to tell and what do you want to accomplish with the telling? This is an essay, so it isn't going to track like a short story. You are going to tell them what you are going to tell them (introduction) tell them (body), and tell them what you've told them (conclusion). If your essay is on sadness you might say "My saddest day was when my dog died. Then tell how he died. That's the introduction. In the next 3 paragraphs you are going to explain why he was such a good dog. and bring us up to when he died. In the conclusion, you'll summarize the three paragraphs, and repeat your introduction. "Yes, Old Yeller was a good dog. I couldn't stand him when I met him, but he because the best friend a boy ever had. It was my saddest day when my dog died."

What did you accomplish with this essay? You have told how your dog died and you have told what he meant to you. The entire essay has been a tribute to your dog. Nice essay.

Good luck.

love_gal, think about a time in your life that you felt these emotions. Make a list of those incidents, put a star near the ones that are the strongest. Those will be the easiest for you to write about. Personal experience is the most convincing and the most interesting for others to read. It's much better than having to write some made up situation that dryly explains what those emotions are. Good luck.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Courage, also known as bravery and fortitude, is the ability to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty or intimidation. It can be divided into "physical courage" — in face of physical pain, hardship, and threat of death — and "moral courage" — in the face of shame, scandal, and discouragement.

As a virtue, courage is covered extensively in Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, its vice of deficiency being cowardice, and its vice of excess being recklessness.

It is well understood that physical and moral courage matters in the military, and there are ample illustrations of courage in religion, sometimes to the point of martyrdom.

Courage is one of the Four Cardinal Virtues (along with Prudence, Justice, and Temperance) in Roman Catholicism. "Cardinal" meaning "pivotal" is applied to this virtue because to possess any virtue, a person must be able to sustain it in the face of difficulty. In Catholicism and Anglicanism, courage is also one of the Seven gifts of the Holy Spirit.

The precise view of what constitutes courage not only varies among cultures, but among individuals. For instance, some define courage as lacking fear in a situation that would normally generate it. Others, in contrast, hold that courage requires one to have fear and then overcome it. " you must fight the things that you can't do.

Civil courage (sometimes also referred to as 'Social courage') is defined by many different standards, but the term is usually referred to when civilians stand up against something that is deemed unjust and evil, knowing that the consequences of their action might lead to their death, injury, or any other negative effect.

In many countries, such as France and Germany, civil courage is enforced by law; this means that if a crime is committed in public, the public is obliged to act, either by alerting the authorities, or by intervening in the conflict. If the crime is committed in a private environment, those that witness the crime are either to report it, or try to stop it.

Valour is the moral strength required to perform one’s duties honestly. It is not physical courage. Very few will have the opportunity to display a disregard for their personal safety under hazardous conditions. Rather, valour is the concept that bridges the ideas of truth and duty. It is the moral courage to live honestly and to do one’s duties, no matter the circumstances.


Hope this helps you!Good Luck dear!
