I was a 30-year-old lawyer in New York. But being a lawyer was never my dream or goal in life. I honestly wanted to be a w
17、riter. I have a great imagination and would write amazing stories in my head. But I always knew that being a writer was never possible for me because it was a better financial decision to stay a lawyer.Recently, I couldnt fall asleep at my usual time of 10 p. m. and when I did fall asleep I had the
18、same dream over and over again. The dream starts with me in the ocean trying to go for a swim and Im searching for something, but I start to drown and have no control over my body.

24、r in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in intere
25、st, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in m
26、any ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same. Within a society, social change is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-material, for example,
