After, her grandmother told Cecilia there was a way for her to sleep under the stars. Cecilia’s grandmother led her across the hallway gently and slowly. Cecilia’s frail grandmother arrived at her room and rested in a chair. Cecilia asked if she was alright and her grandmother said, “I’m feeling stronger every day!” They pulled out many old things from a cedar chest. Cecilia’s mother’s baby shoes and a lock of hair from Cecilia’s first haircut. This was Platonic thinking. Plato was a Greek Philosopher from the Helenestic Age. He believed that everything can be known by its form. The Highest Form belonged in the ideas of the world of ideas and came first, was perfect, and was eternal with no beginning and end. Then came the Lowest Form which was the world of Physical Properties. They came later, were distorted, and were temporal with a beginning and end. All the Platonic thoughts revolved around the idea that nothing cannot create something. You can identify Plato in the story when they pulled out baby shoes and a lock of hair. The physical form of those objects didn’t carry any value but the memories that they had in them were non-physical and the Highest Form. Cecilia’s grandmother was physically weak, frail, and slow, but she was mentally strong.

Explanation:

Just watch some things, like saying Plato is instead of Plato was, and grandmother does not need to be capitalized.
