In order for you to begin any piece of writing or planning for your essay, you first need to know what you're writing about so deciding on a topic is first. Second, it is helpful to have a general outline or road map for your essay. This helps you to stay on topic with your paragraphs as well as point out any immediate problems with organizational structure. The next is to write a rough draft for the essay. Once you have the draft and know exactly how it all goes together, you can go back and revise for major errors and better language. It's not worth the time to check for minor errors if you end up making major revisions at this stage. Once all of the major revisions are completed, then it's important to spell and grammar check the essay for things that may have been overlooked.

The candle symbolizes Ilyich’s approaching death in the above excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s “The Death of Ivan Ilyich.”
At the end of the novella “The Death of Ivan IIyich,” written by Leo Tolstoy speaks about the materialistic nature of the physical world. At the time of his death, Ivan says “ Death is finished, he said to himself. It is no more!” This line gives an insight into his perspective about life and death.
It shows that Ivan continues to fight for his life and gives the plot an open ending.
For Ivan death has caused an end of his life in this physical world but this has rewarded him a path towards spiritual world.
His death not just gives an end to the story but also a beginning of a new life and story of Ivan.
