He and his grandad also run the most successful lemonade stand in town, but their light life changed however when Kevin Fanny Dorson, a neighbourhood rival to the lemonade …show more content…
Benny has two key relationships in the short film, and the relationships play a key part in telling the story of the lemonade stand. The first relationship is the relationship with his grandad. This relationship is a positive relationship and the type is a family relationship [( grandchild -> grandfather) to be specific]. The two have been living together in the same old house, running the same successful business for a long time, and it is important as without grandad, benny would not have a caretaker as his family had left him. Benny explains that he and his grandads business teaches him slot about life, and this quote is to be considered as it suggests that Benny’s grandad teaches him etiquettes of life. The other relation is perhaps the both important relationship benny has in the story, and this is his neighbour -> neighbour relationship with Kevin Fanny Dorson, and it is shown to be a negative relationship. I say that it is the most important relationship in the film as it is the relationship that causes the complications in the story. “It was all fun, but that was until Kevin Fanny Dorson came in” is a quote that spoken by Benny. Kevin is jealous of the lemonade stand and therefor tries to destroy the business, but in actuality Kevin only wanted to be friends with the two and run the business for them, showing it was a neutral relationship in the

Not every relationship is the same. A relationship I have with my father could be different than the one of my brother or one of another family. It all depends on how close your are, and what you are willing to do for someone. Yet, there are some similarities as well as differences. In the book “ Night” there are three different relationships. Being different relationships, there are many similarities between them that relate to one another.

Lou the little seamstress's relationship Is somewhat open, people know they like each other and that Lou has a crush on the little seamstress, but don't know the big things, like when they had sex under the tree, and how she got pregnant and had an abortion and kept being pregnant a secret.

Relationships are everywhere around you and at all times they are present and needed. Good interactions with people form average lives into fairytales and wishes into realities. People need all types of relationships; they need love to know they have a great person right with them along the whole way, they need someone to care about and support, they need someone to flirt with and to have a strong sexual relationship with, and most importantly they need a friend to behold there secrets and trust. Relationships help people get through the tough times; they are there to maintain healthy lifestyles, which is something everyone desires. Relationships are used frequently throughout the novel to amplify and describe the harsh conditions of the land and the journey westward. The family who set off to California during the depression only made it there because of the people around them.
Another relationship between the two is the way Hemingway dealt with women. He was married four times, and one can assume that he had his share of trouble in finding the right woman. The man in the story has trouble communicating with his girlfriend, which creates a problem in their relationship. Basically, he wants her to do what he wants and won’t have it any other way. As Mellow puts it, "It is a classic, understated Hemingway story of failure of communication between the sexes" (348).
Only when your neighbors problems affect you personally or instill a degree of emotion in you then do we begin to try to help them out. We see this when the narrator says that he despises Sonny’s friend. That Sonny’s friend only ever asked for money and that for some reason the narrator always gave in to his request and gave him a dollar or two. After the narrator talks to the friend about Sonny’s recent happenings he again asks the narrator for a dollar. The narrator makes a comment that he did not mind giving him what he had in his pocket this time because they both connected in a way because of Sonny’s situation. There was an invisible venn diagram in the narrator's mind that beforehand had nothing in the middle overlapping circle to connect him to the friend. Now, because of their both shared worries, the narrator begins to warm up to the friend. We see this again when the narrator points out that his own troubles made Sonny’s problems real. When Grace - the narrator’s daughter - dies, the narrator talks about the fact that he had written to Sonny in a long time. This simple action or the idea that my problems make me understand your problems also stems from a capitalistic society. In this day and age, how many companies and businesses make decisions that either push their own agendas or benefit their investors without regards for the good of the rest of their society?

The camera view switches to a brief shot of the street level in the village, the music replaced by the bustle of the everyday activities of the townspeople, before taking us into the local pub. It should be noted here that from street level, this village does not much resemble the romantic vision of the same village provided by the aerial shot. Even in such a short shot, the village appears more urban than it probably should, and if not for the natural light, would not differ greatly from the scenes of urban Boston later in the film. It is in the pub that we first meet Joseph’s father (Joe) and a friend (McGuire) who appear to be perpetuating stereotypes by sharing a drink (or two) in the middle of the day and singing a favourite drinking refrain before being summoned to the street by a local to protest the arrival of a rent collecting protestant landlord. The camera scrambles to follow the protest out into the street as the villagers yell and throw debris at the landlord’s carriage and horses.

About, “10% of students have bad grades,” and Greg Ridley is one of them, but little does Greg know that he will meet a special man that will change his perspective on life. Greg Ridley, the main character in the story, wants to enjoy the simple things in life but his failing grades relent him from doing so, but Greg ends up meeting Lemon Brown, a homeless man, that will change the way Greg thinks about his lifestyle. In the short story, “The Treasure of Lemon Brown,” by Walter Dean Smith presents the theme that although a person might not be as fortunate as others, the smaller things in their life can mean just as much.
We can see this in Jessica and Boy George’s relationship. Though they are not related by blood or kinship by marriage, they share a bond that may be seen as even closer, in some aspects, due to the commongrounds of their inner-city life, dealings within the ghetto environment, and of course their day-to-day struggle for survival.
While I can not completely conclude that the relationship was more than platonic, I can say there was a definite friendship because the woman had become comfortable enough with Kenny to accept advice on other things not relating to paint. Not only was she comfortable with Kenny, but the shop dogs “wagged and approached when she arrived”, indicating that she was a “regular”. It is possible that the woman went to the shop too often, and that she just wanted to satisfy her need for attention. Kenny could give her that attention under the premise that they were meeting up about the many projects she took on. I noticed that “desire” and “deep” were used to describe certain aspects of their interactions.

Have you ever wondered if buying a gatorade before a game is worth the price or would water just be fine? I have often wondered if getting a gatorade would be worth the money or if just getting water would be fine. I play sports almost every season and always have to decide wether to get a gatorade or just drink the water they gives. I am so think that what makes the gatorade worth buying, is it just for the taste or does it have something that actually helps. I believe that learning more about electrolytes and hydration would be useful to explain which drink would be for me as an athlete during a game.
