Final essay promt

Reflecting on this English class we have learned a lot in such a short period of time. We started with politics and economics with the book The Rich and the Rest of US, and then we went and talked a little about religion and how a Jesuit priest views the world by working with homies. During the time slot of the class in the real world, various events happened such as the government shutdown, Obama care, the event on Syria. Most recently was the typhoon that devastated the Philippines. After analyzing the couple of events that transpired in real life while the course of the semester and from the books that we read I came up with the following idea thinking of these books:


How do political and socio-economic as well as natural events that are considered disasters impact an individual’s spiritual life and their way to act upon the event? Does the action taken based upon something that we humans inherit due to the fact that we live here in this world? What is the name of that that makes us feel something for them and makes us commit action for it to the point thatg we write books and stories?
