The role of woman has changed drastically, from back in the day. Women were looked at before as the house keepers, as in the maids, the chefs, the keeper of the kids. While the men were the financial holders of the house, holding the status of the bread winners. Nowadays, women are not the soul care givers of the children, because women hold jobs now as well in order for the household to make it.

She had enough and just decided to leave her husband and children. She had needs of her own that weren't being met, so she wanted more out of life.

I know that got my ass in gear for sure, I wanted to hate you for giving one of my documents a 2 as i'm sure many others did too. I can see why now, taking a second, third and fourth look back threw my own work I saw things I didn't at first, and as the class progressed I learned more of how to fix those things to make it right. You didn't expect anything that wasn't possible but you gave us that push and I am thankful for that. The actual content of the course, I don't know that what I took from poetry was a part of the lesson but I relate poetry to life, in a way that not everyone takes the same road to find the meaning, but at some point we...
