How reliable is my source?

One of my sources for finding the definition of happiness is Wikipedia. This source is fairly reliable. Wikipedia has moderators which make sure that posts are accurate. The only problem might be that since anybody can post on Wikipedia, some inaccurate information might have sneaked through the moderators. A good thing about using Wikipedia is that there are many different views on the definition of happiness. This is because many people have posted their own views on the proper definition.

3rd Essay Topic

I'm going to do my third essay on the definition of happiness. I think that this word will be good to argue because there are many different ways to look at happiness and how it's defined.

Some people would define happiness by simply the "Good feeling" that you get when you are happy. Others would find a deeper meaning. What I mean by this is that some people would say that true happiness can never be reached. That happiness does not truly exist in our world. The only way to reach that true happiness would be in the afterlife in heaven.

Well however you choose to look at it doesn't really matter. I believe that the definition of this word is in the eyes of the beholder. You can define it however you see it fit. But in my paper I will be writing about these different ideas and will be explaining them in more detail.

2nd essay topic

The two media that I would like to compare are: The commercial/song "Citizen Soldier" by 3 doors down featuring the National Guard, to the movie "Saving Private Ryan".

The message that both media is that we all need to fight for our country and our freedom. In other words, both media are pro armed forces. The commercial and song combo of Citizen Soldier is a very inspiring music video. After watching it, it really makes many people think about joining the armed forces. The song sounds very heroic and the video gives me goosebumps every time I watch it. The movie Saving Private Ryan helps to promote this same message by showing what we are fighting for. It's amazing that so many men would risk their lives to save one person. Watching this movie gives you a feeling of comradery. It also makes you really proud to be an American.
