Frank's Inferno Creative Writing

Someone really inspiring to me taught me to always give 100% and always get back up no matter how many times you fall. When Life gets tough I think of this lesson and push through whatever dilema I’m in. When I think of this career I know there will never be a time when I don’t wake up excited to go to work.

As much as I wished to live through uninterrupted success, I’ve come to accept with a much more open mind that the best way to face challenges is to do so with

I remember when my dad would always encourage me and my siblings to be successful in school, because if you are successful you will make it to the real world. The real world is tough and people need

One example is when I was learning how to swim. A few years back, I always wanted to learn how to swim, but I couldn’t. The only situation I was satisfied with doing was standing in water that went no higher than my shoulders. Therefore my parents sent me to swimming lessons. The only obstacle I had to overcome was treading water, in the deep end. I was always afraid of the deep end, even with instructors and life guards around. Well, one day, my classmates and I had to practice our treading, I was too afraid to get in, and therefore my instructor picked me up and threw me in. That was the day I realized I needed to be brave and overcome my fear of the deep end. Nonetheless it took a while. All of my hard work came through, and now I go on any pool or water park knowing that I didn’t have to worry about drowning. I learned that if I wanted to achieve something, then I would have to have perseverance, and overcome the obstacles that come with wanting to achieve it, just like

I come from a loving and supportive family that has always encouraged me to work hard and if I do, I will be able to achieve anything I desire. I was taught to reach for the stars and to pursue my dreams. I am a true believer in setting goals, staying focused, and being persistent to achieve all I aspire: to be a CTO or CIO in corporate America.

At the start of the poem we find Dante in the dark forest(Inf. 1.2). Not much description is given maybe to show Dante’s disorientation. Whether the disorientation is spiritual, physical, moral or political; that is unclear at the start of the poem. The poem us written this way so reader can identify with Dante. It is also written in such a way that sometimes it is difficult to understand some parts, you sometimes have to read it backwards to get a better understanding.

Ralph Waldo said, “unless you try to do things beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.” I agree with Ralph Waldo, push yourself to do greater things. Ralph Waldo said it right, if you don't push for greater things you will not succeed. One reason is, to be a greater person push further than what you have already accomplished. You will never get better if you keep doing the same ole thing. People who don't settle for the easy way are stronger.

GROWTH MINDSET: I can’t fail. Even I get this one wrong, that doesn’t make me a failure. Most successful people have at one time failed in their career. Today they’re successful.

The walk back to the campsite was silent. The lads were still freaked out from the past events. They feared if they made any noise more people with guns would appear. None of the boys felt safe.

The Inferno is divided into different subdivisions and circles. There are 3 subdivisions depending on different types of sins. All of these souls were separated due to their punishment of their sin. Those with more tortuous punishments are located deeper into Hell and those with not as an extreme punishment are located closer to the superficial side of Hell. The souls consist of the souls that were not baptized, souls that committed a sin of incontinence, and the souls that were violent.

Arden was stunned when he was willing to tell her about his scars. She almost dropped her sewing needle when listening to his first tale, “Were you suicidal?! If I were around you at the time, we would have had words,” and was applauding at his second tale, “A wild lycan?! Not many can take on and live to tell a tale like yours. I wish I had been there to see it.” It would have been a nice trophy to keep for sure. Though it did being up thoughts on how durable this man actually was. Particularly since during the fall he was more worried for their safety than his own.

“In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure” (Bill Cosby). Reflecting back on my life I have dealt with numerous downfalls but I always bounce back. I was born in India and moved here when I was six years old. As I grew up in California I was not a bright student at first. I was enrolled in Carmichael Elementary in which I was the only one with Turban on my head, which caused me to get into a lot of fights with other students who were making fun of turban. Not knowing how to speak English at the time affected the way interacted with teachers and students. On the other hand my family always had a tight budget at home. Both of my parents worked at the store we owned which was the only source money. At school kids were always talking about their new shoes and the iPod which his or her parents got them. I didn’t get everything I wanted as a kid but as I got older I understand if did I could be a spoiled brat. When I moved from Carmichael to Sacramento and I was enrolled at Maeola R. Beitzel elementary. Going to this new school I already learned English so I made marvelous friends and was surrounded by positive people. Going from a chaos environment to this harmonious environment in part because I was speaking English, made me have unique personality .I was playing sports and growing as a student. Those years went by in no time. Now I am in high school and my family’s income has been growing. My mom changed her work to now at Jack in

Throughout my educational experience, I have endured countless hardships that made progress difficult at times. Although it was a struggle through my strong dedication to education, I have also earned a list of achievements for my hard work. These experiences from, failing two of my English classes, to excelling tremendously in mathematics, have molded me into the type of student I am today. I am a student with a growth mindset and, an optimistic outlook on education and, the bright future ahead. I now understand the impact that a positive mindset can have on your future. I am definitely proud of the student I have become. I feel like my journey is unique, but is also very relatable.

Inferno is only a piece of a much larger story written by Dante Alighieri. The entire story is called the Divine Comedy, which is composed of Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. Together these three pieces tell the story of Dante's journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise; something that is easily discernible through reading the titles of each part. Dante wrote these poems somewhere around the year 1300. Originally written in what Dante referred to as Latin, there have been many different translations of his Divine Comedy. This has cause some variations in small details of the text, but the main story has stayed the same. Dante was highly involved in some political conflicts at the time which influenced some of his writing. The one

     The Inferno by Dante is a story of a mans voyages through the treacherous depths of hell. Dante is a man who has strayed from the path of a catholic way of life. Now he needs to travel through hell to reach the virtuous path that will take him to heaven. He is guided through hell by a man who is in limbo, the first circle of hell, named Virgil.
