Katniss Everdeen is the definition of independent and self- reliant. She is a woman of strength, wisdom, courage, and independence.  Katniss guides herself and depends on no one. In times of hardship, she is not a "coward that fleets before revolution," but she fights for what is right and "predominates in all her  being." Her abundant amount  strength and fearlessness contribute to her self reliance.

The lyrics repeat, "it's just me, myslef, and I, solo ride until I die." The artist empahsizes that she "don't need a hand to hold, even when the night is cold, I got that fire in my soul." The song artists admits that she is simply self-reliant, and depends on nobody for anything. It is herself that "keeps her alive" and her independence is clearly emphasized throughout the song. In a very similar parallel structure, the text states that one should "trust thyself" and "absolve to yourself" while "seeking no one besides yourself." Bothe authors drastically emphasize the necessity to depend on no one, besides yourself. Independence, strength and self-reliance should define you. ]]> 2016-12-15 05:51:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mtrevino2458/tm7w9bhj8yrv/wish/143767587 mtrevino2458 https://padlet.com/mtrevino2458/tm7w9bhj8yrv/wish/143767977 As Emerson exemplifies in her essay, great people and thinkers are very often misunderstood. The last pharach of ancient Egypt, Cleopatra, was greatly misinterpreted. She belonged to the Ptolemaic dynasty and originally ruled with her father. She was clothed in strength and power, while ruling great lands. However, today she is remembered for her relationships with various men and her pure beauty. Cleopatra is looked upon as a sex symbol rather than a great ruler with immense strength and power. ]]> 2016-12-15 06:02:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mtrevino2458/tm7w9bhj8yrv/wish/143767977 mtrevino2458 https://padlet.com/mtrevino2458/tm7w9bhj8yrv/wish/143768532 "Accept the place the divine Providence has found for you; the society of your contemporaries, the connection of events. Great men have always done so ... betraying their perception and predominating in all their being."

She makes the reader understand that they cannot rely on any one but themselves, creating strong emotions in the reader. Emerson ethically describes how it is only right to follow your heart and mind with intergrity. She reveals that it is the "integrity of our own minds" which lead to sucess and happiness. Lastly, she logicallly appeals to the reader through exemplifying how great people in the past have been greatly misunnderstood, such as the Pythagoras, Socrates, Jesus, and Newton. This creates a sense of reliability to the author. She connects her central message to logical people, causing the reader to see from her pount of view. ]]> 2016-12-15 20:45:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mtrevino2458/tm7w9bhj8yrv/wish/143955597
