Relationships form the fundamental platform upon which we design, build and
ultimately define our core values and moral compass towards life. Driven by our
personal history, we choose and build relationships with people who will help us
meet our present needs, fulfill our expectations, and if we're lucky, work through
our issues and grow in the directions in which we need to grow. In some cases a
relationship with a person or a group of people can be severely dysfunctional and
debilitating, which results in a lack of growth and satisfaction.
How do relationships shape values, actions and lives?
Writing Assignment # 2

Albert Einstein once said:
"Imagination is everything. It is the preview for life's coming attractions."
Below are two interesting images. Choose one of the images and then create

this piece is to use strong figurative language, imagination and alternative
perspectives.
