ACTUAL ESSAY:</p>
<pre><code> Understanding others requires the sometimes introspective viewpoint of others. As shown in the scientific research of Dr. Cristen Anajar of the National Institute of Health, others emit unconscious phermomones thought to make one more self-conscious. Literature in the form of John Blake's <underline>And I Was One</underline> depicts Dillian, an outcast, as gaining salvation from his brother. Also, art has shown that the humanistic workings of Z. Zillinger have gathered a suprising reaction - Zillinger reports that it is he himself that gathers the meaning of his work from others.
Scientific studies conducted at the National Institute of Health by Dr. Cristen Anakar have proven has proven an astounding phenemenon. Humans emit a chemical known as DopaTromine6; it is this that alerts individuals to tone down feelings of absolute superority. The recent convention of international doctors in Geneva, Switerzerland discussed brainwave modulations characteristic of self-introspection. Obviously, others have profound effects on us, aiding us in self-reevaluation.
John Blake's <underline>And I Was One</underline> illustrates a man who finally comes to acknowledge and admit his shortcomings by acknowledging the advice of his brother. Dillian comes to accept that things are often out of personal control through the rantings of his "mad" brother, Don. Although insane, Don eventually teaches Dillian the value and insintric pleasure in accepting people of different medical status. Through this vessel, Dillian comes to accept the beauty of diversity and relenquishes fault for his unsucessful business. Certainly, Dillian comes to understanding much more about the self through another.
Finally, the abstract workings of Z. Zillinger are suprising by the convention in which each piece is named. Through extensive customer feedback, Zillenger names each piece according to a voting system on Personality to Artists, a NPO that supports the complexity and modernity of 21st century art. Zillenger's <underline>401</underline> depicts a splattering of red and yellow hues thought to represent the metaphysical meaning of all life. Reporting that these creative names help his drive to create famous works like <underline>Dune: A Pictursque</underline> , the maestro gains the most from his audience.
All in all, one certainly gains more understanding of self from the voices and interpretations of others. Scientific studies of DopaTromine6 prove this on a biological basis. Dillian's learnings and individualized maturity in John Blake's <underline>And I was One</underline> illustrate this. The fantastic and mesermerzing (fail XD) paintings of Z. Zillenger serve this on a fundamental basis nature of human commonality. (yep, failed) Indeed, the self is complemented by the creativeness and completness that is the other.

<p>spelling = fail
complete made up BS = win?
result = profit? XD</p>
<p>fyi, my handwriting is kinda large so both pages are filled completely.</p>
All in all, since I don’t care if the facts are accurate, I’d say you did a decent job on this essay. However, your first sentence does not really answer the prompt; you’re talking about understanding others, while it’s asking about understanding yourself. But, your body paragraphs make up for this by showing that you did indeed understand the prompt as you tie each back to the main issue. I’d give this somewhere from an 8 to a 10 out of 12. Take care of that long nose ;)</p>
