No one would 've ever thought that s/he were similar to a person that lives across the Pacific or atlantic, or even a person across the globe.

This theme is that even with high-scale differences, people can nevertheless recognize similarities with others. Maya Angelou shows the theme by showing that everyone has a diverse lifestyle, but the lifestyle is made up of common things.
For example, both of the fathers were by the narrator’s side, providing them with assurance giving them hope to continue surviving. Also, the fathers did everything in their power to help them survive, mainly by putting their child's needs before theirs, such as giving them more rations of food. It could be implied that the moral of each of the stories that the reader would need to grasp is that one should never give up in the hardest times.

The act protects horses from humans by making wild horses components of the public land they occupy. The Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act prevents humans from slaughtering wild horses. The act also considers the natural behaviors of horses and how these behaviors will affect the longevity of the wild horse population.

The Wisconsin timber wolf is an immaculate predator that must be respected. However, they are jeopardizing the safety of multiple species; including humans. The Wisconsin as we know it will not be the same if we allow the wolf population to rise. We need to look at the success of Montana’s wolf hunt and replicate it in Wisconsin.
Sometimes the relationship between two generations is very complicated. “My Father Is a Simple Man” by Luis Omar Salinas and “A secret Lost in the Water” by Roch Carrier explore these universal themes, the greatness of love together with the unavoidability of conflicts between two generations through the depiction of the speakers’ personal experience with their fathers. In “My Father Is a Simple Man”, the speaker expresses his love for his father deeply by highly complimenting that his father has sincere “kindness and patience” (Salinas 23) to take the speaker on “lifelong journey” (Salinas 9-10). In the end of the poem, the speaker firmly believes that he should “have learned” (Salinas 36) something from his father which states a manifestly
