In the Passage "The Crossing" the Author Cormac McCarthy's give techniques convey the impact of the experience on the main characters. Like in paragraph Line 5 it says "he cradled the wolf in his arms and lowered her to the ground and unfolded the sheet" so basically the author is trying to point out how he Billy killed the wolf and then carries her through the mountains to burry her . Another good piece of evidence is that the "Coyotes were yapping along the hills to the south and the were calling from the dark shapes" well from my point of view it sounds like the wolfs were crying but as you continue to read on you'll see that it says it in line 13.

In the memoir “The Other Wes Moore” by Wes Moore, there are two people with the same name, Wes, who grew up in the city of Baltimore. The author Wes went to Military School for not doing well in school. While the Other Wes followed in his brothers’ footsteps by doing drugs and fighting. As the story progresses, both Wes’ face many challenges in their lives as they grow up. This makes both Wes’ a product of their own environment and knows the true meanings of their fate.

Despite the bitter realities, we always search for the silver lining or light at the end of the tunnel. There's always that one key aspect that keeps one motivated to continue on. The value of Hope is proven in Elie Wiesel's memoir Knight as well as throughout The True Story of Hansel and Gretel by Louise Murphy. Although the key to survival is maintaining hope, while simultaneously the delusions can be one's Achilles Heal.

In Dennis Covington’s book Salvation on Sand Mountain and David Haberman’s Journey Through the Twelve Forests: An Encounter with Krishna, we get two very different experiences of researches stepping into a world of different religion and perspectives than their own. While both Haberman and Covington focus on a certain religion and the traditions of its followers, Haberman does a better job with presenting an accurate representation of Hinduism and the Braj pilgrimage. This is because Covington’s book delves too deeply into his personal journey and opinion without explaining any details or history of Christianity and the snake-handling, while Haberman gives the reader history of Hinduism and the significance of the Braj pilgrimage.

There's a chance for them again.” (298). In other words, how hard we fight to stay alive, to become a better person, is who we are at our core. Who we are in the worst times (like for a plant in a drought), and how far we will fight and wait (days, weeks, years) to be the best we can become, to grow into a better person and flourish, that is who we really

Starting with “The Wanderer,” the speaker begins his tale by reminiscing upon his trials and tribulations of which he has suffered a great deal and “longs for relief, the Almighty’s mercy” (118). He has lost his friends and no longer has anyone to confide in, forcing him to be alone with his thoughts: “So I must hold in the thoughts of my heart” (118). In the midst of his grieving, the Wanderer recalls a joyous occasions, such as when “his friend and lord helped him to the feast” (119), only to realize that what once was, is no longer. He finds comfort in his dreams, longing to be back with his “liege-lord again” only to awaken and have reality come shattering down upon him (119). However, he comes to the conclusion that through hardship and suffering, one matures, grows, learns his place in life and how “a good man holds his words back, tells his woes not too soon, baring his inner heart before knowing the best way” (120).

Here the question is what action promotes McCoy's & the hiker's interest. The main purpose of all the hikers was to travel to Nepal and have a "once in a life time experience". It is conceivable that this is consistent with everyone's best interests, while helping the Sadhu is clearly not. Action was ethical. However the fact that McCoy feels guilty reflects that he was unable to promote his long term interest. Hence it becomes ambiguous to justify his actions.

“Today I understand something I didn’t before: every blessing ignored becomes a curse.” (Coelho 60) In The Alchemist, the idea that everyone has a mission in life is critical. Most people ignore their purpose, and choose to do something safe or easy. When Santiago decides to chase his dream, it becomes a blessing, as he meets the love of his life, learns to be courageous and understand the world. Had Santiago not gone to pursue his Personal Legend, he would not have learned the world’s ways, he wouldn’t have become wise, and his life would’ve likely become monotonous as a shepherd. This is in a way, a curse.
