The naval officer which came to the rescue was himself a man of war and conflict as he was military, yet, he saw that these uncivilized and wild children were nearly inhumane- Yet, the irony is: Isn't the carnage of war inhumane as well?

(It's been a year or two since I've read LOTF, so memories may be a little fuzzy)

The irony is that throughout the book, the boys are portrayed as rogue savages and go to war against each other. When the navy officer arrives, his position shows that he is a part of war, the representation of war.

The officer is supposed to be a hero, an adult at last, someone sensible, as shown when Ralph desperately tries to explain the horrors of what the boys have done. However, it is quite ironic that their hero to rescue them from their brutal war, is a person who partakes in war. His war be more modernized and he may wear a nice clean uniform, but he too is a savage, just like the schoolboys.

“Those who do not move, do not notice their chains.”

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Those who do not move, do not notice their chains. ― Rosa Luxemburg

Rosa knew exactly what she was talking about.

You cant free people who don’t know they are enslaved…especially yourself. You cant shed old skin, old ways and old thoughts until you have something to replace it with. None but ourselves can free our minds

We have to believe we can break free, but before that we have to believe we are worthy of freedom

Sometimes we are chained by weight, or debt or addictions. Sometimes we are chained by our past hurts and pain. Sometime we are chained by our need for speed, need for stuff and things in our lives. More times than not we are chained by our own thoughts about who we are and who we think we can be.

These chains keep us from trying, from changing, from growing, from learning.

I know what I am talking about, because I was chained in so many areas of my life. My poor health, over stressed, fast lifestyle was a huge chain I wore for years. I was chained by poor choices and bad decisions that made my life and world view limited. I thought they were just pretty bracelets that every woman in my family had the pleasure of wearing. Shiny baubles of too many fatty foods, no exercise, too much pressure and caring for everyone in the world before myself. The chain of being the perfect woman, mother, nurturer and sister. The chain of giving everything to everybody even at the cost of my soul.

I think women in my family received these chains upon puberty

Being bound for so long, I lost hope. I thought this was life. Generation after generation of self sacrificing black woman. Such a cliche….

The reality was sometime. it was easier to stay stuck, stay small, stay shackled. The pain becomes normal I no longer noticed the chains. I even wore them with pride on occasion. The less I thought about my chains the more tolerable they became.

I had an option … I could continue to wear the chains and. follow the path before me or I could make choices that would have me walking anew path.

But here is the truth: we cant dance or sing or sit in the sunlight when shackled. We cant. truly laugh or love when chained

I did not want to die chained. I had to break my chains so I could live.

I had to be freed. The funny thing about freedom is it is very rarely given, most times it is fought for and won. I had to become my own example of struggle and redemption.

Write a creative writing with the title "discovery"

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

"Discovery"

Discovery In the thick folds of the forest I found myself gasping. Gasping for air, gasping for something that would remind me how to be alive in that place where all seemed to be dying. The night had fallen upon me quietly, like a blanket that is thrown upon one’s shoulders to protect them from the cold, but the only thing I needed protection from was the very thing that was gripping me – darkness. The air was heavy with the sound of silence; I dared not move in fear of what might happen, so I laid still. Face in the ground, my nose filled with the scent of grass and wet fallen leaves; my hands in my pocket; my legs against my chest. There had not been a moment before where I felt this vulnerable, this fragile. As if my bones could break at the mere attempt of movement, or that my eyes would no longer be able to withstand the sight of light. Fear is a mighty thing. It paralyses you to the very core of your being. The only sound discerning time was my heartbeat; a constant ticking of the clock, a simple reminder that life existed in that desolated space… until I heard something else. Something warm. Similar to my heartbeat but just faster, more fearless; and so I decided to get up and follow the sound. My legs were stiff from laying still, burdened by my own body weight I fell to the ground in my attempt to walk. I tried again. And again, until I finally stood up – a little twig, towered by trees.

The Lamb

Butoxors [25]

It is feautrured in Songs of Experience because the poem talks about the experience of a tiger. It is a suspense poem. Indeed, the life of a tiger is full of suspenses. The poem's opening lines are:

Tyger Tyger, burning bright,

In the forests of the night;

What immortal hand or eye,

Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

The poet praises the the qualities of the tiger by asking questions without answering them. In the remaining lines of the poem, the author continues praising the perfectness of the animal, calling it dark craftsmanship. The thought-provoking point is about the comparison between The Tyger and the previous poem The Lamb which the poet himself doubts that the same God could create innocent spirit like a lamb and such a fierce animal like tiger at the same time. or it could be interpreted as God's different expressions showing his kindness in the face of lamb and his anger in the qualities of tiger.
