Definition essay on certain topics

Your assignment is to write an extended definition essay on one of the following topics: faith, success, courage, integrity, love, family, hope, or freedom. The essay .

should contain only material based on your own personal knowledge and experience. You may use a dictionary definition (properly cited) to get you started if you desire, but there should be no other borrowed material. Do not use research for this essay! It is your definition and should not be based on what others believe.
Although the essay is based on your definition, it must be written in third person, so you will want to avoid first person and second person pronouns. As part of the writing process, you should prepare a sentence outline to submit with the essay and worksheet.
