“We were Liars” by E. Lockhart
The main character is Cadence sinclair
10 questions i would ask the character:
1.) Did you ever felt like you’re under pressure by your family’s standards?
- i think the character will say yes because her family doesn’t approve anything below their line/status
2.) would you choose your family or your significant partner?
- the character will probably choose her significant partner since she rebelled and planned to burn the sinclair house
3.) if you didn’t burn the house down, would you feel any less different about the situation?
- the character will probably say that she regrets everything and would do anything to take things back
4.) would it be better if you remembered the tragedy later or earlier?
- i don’t know how he character will answer this tbh but i think she might say later because it’s better to unfold a tragedy slowly
5.) how do you plan on coping the loss?
- i think the character will say to remember the values of the happiest moments with them and always cherish it
6.) If your family approved Gat, would you still burn the house down since your family controls your cousins as well?
- i am not sure how the character will respond to this
7.) Do you plan on running away from your family and choose Gat?
- i think the character will say yes because she love him no matter what they say
8.) why do you think your family is cursed?
- because from generation to generation, nothing last forever and it’a always divorce or inheritance problem
9.) who do you think deserves the inheritance the most?
- nobody alone should get it, i think they all should share it
10.) do you forgive your dad for leaving you and your mom?
- i think he character will say yes because her dad left after being under pressured by the standards of the sinclair family
Answer:
Ceremony and rituals have long played a vital and essential role in Native American culture. Often referred to as “religion,” most Native Americans did not consider their spirituality, ceremonies, and rituals as “religion,” in the way that Christians do. Rather, their beliefs and practices form an integral and seamless part of their very being. Like other aboriginal peoples around the world, their beliefs were heavily influenced by their methods of acquiring food, – from hunting to agriculture. They also embraced ceremonies and rituals that provided power to conquer the difficulties of life, as wells as events and milestones, such as puberty, marriage, and death. Over the years, practices and ceremonies changed with tribes‘ needs.
