For example, the discovery of oil in my country has completely changed the demographics and lifestyle. Those who were lucky enough to reap rewards from the lucrative industry can live lavish lifestyles, travel abroad, and even move, live, and work in Western countries while maintaining a home in Kuwait. The most significant thing I have learned is that while we are masters of our destiny, the past still molds and shapes who we are. The American Dream tells us that we can become whatever we want, as long as we are willing to work for it. However, I do not believe that. We can come whatever we want to a certain extent. The past shapes our beliefs, values, goals, and ideals. When I asked my parents about their belief systems and how those shaped who they are, they smiled. They said that they were pulled in several different directions. On the one hand, they were excited and enticed by living abroad and participating...
They wanted to study in the United Kingdom and possibly move from Kuwait forever. My uncle lives in London and never visits us, because he has made a life for himself there. His attitude and vision of the world is progressive; he still identifies himself as Arab but his politics and lack of interest in religion distinguishes himself from many of his relatives and friends. Even my mother, who is a progressive woman, told me that she could never leave her native Kuwait. In spite of the social, political, and economic issues in our country, it is still home. My personal values, ideals, and goals have also been influenced by a respect for culture and tradition that accompanies a broader interest in the greater world around me.

Community My community is a middle-class community on the edges of a major city. The community is fairly well-integrated, with a number of races, ethnicities and nationalities represented. The community is not particularly close-knit, but there are common threads that bind the people here. For example, most of the people in the community are working class people. Most own or live in houses, with some apartments as well. For the most
Community Nursing The United States today represents not only wealth and opportunity for those within its borders, but also for those who enter it as immigrants. At least, this is the ideal. The unfortunate reality is that, more often than not, those seeking refuge from the conditions in their home countries often come into the states with very little. Many come in without even so much as the ability to speak
Community Health Nursing The contribution that a community healthcare unit can make towards enhancing population health and minimizing inequalities is strengthened by international law. Primary healthcare has demonstrated to have an independent impact on improving the status of health within the community. It also affects the reduction of health inequalities and the achievement of improved health outcomes at a relatively low cost and making the healthcare system sustainable. There is substantial
Community Policing Efficacy The Violent Crime Control & Law Enforcement Act of 1994 heralded the beginning of a massive effort to reform policing strategies in the United States, in part through implementation of community-policing programs at the local level.
