Leah,
Your response to our guest speaker's experience with death aligned with what was asked for in this homework because you connected her insights to events from your own life. Like the insight Beth mentioned about how most men don't get medical attention right away, because they deny their pain/illness. You then connected this insight to your life by mentioning the time your father had an erupted appendix and denied his pain until it was too much and he luckily got there before it was too late. I agree that it might have something to do with their masculinity being in play because they must ask others for help and must be looked after when when it's usually the other way around. Next time try to add more depth to these big ideas you mention in your post by just focusing on one and expanding it. Besides that I enjoyed reading this post:)
Raven,
The first insight you mentioned I felt like you went into depth and showed how in your life it is true, when one is in deep struggle we turn to religion no matter if you don't even have one. I like how you shared experiences you've had of death. Maybe you should go deeper on this and say if these deaths have affected your life or view on life? Also could've explained why you think it didn't trigger feelings when she told her experience. Besides this I enjoyed reading someone else's point of view on death of my age and cant wait to read future one:)
