Answer:
In these days of modern existence, a brand has become something that means a lot to the thinking people and something that has now come to stay. It is the modern elite’s status symbol.
The brand of an item that is used has, in today’s parlance become more important than the quality of the item. This is because the brand has got to have quality, it is so believed. Brand of anything used brings in its trail the status and the modernity of an individual.
Whether the thinking is correct or not is another matter but, the thinking has come a long way, and will probably stay. With this attitude, the elite are lending a sophistication of theirs to the brand also. This trend in turn leads to an obvious monopoly of the brand in the market.
The message that Maureen Daly conveys in the story "Sixteen" is that in affairs of the heart it is best to use your head to temper the feelings of the heart. The main character says, "My heart still prays but my mind laughs. Finally, mind wins!" "Sixteen" is a story of unrequited love. The young girl in the story feels the young man she yearns for is different; he really has feelings for her. But, he never calls, and he ends up being like so many other young men she has fallen for. “I know what the stars knew all the time—he’ll never, never call—never,” she realizes. The message is an age old one that many young people learn over and over as they grow to use reason when dealing with love as opposed to using only their feelings, which run the gamut of love and passion, to anger, and finally to reason and moving on.
