Graham’s faith was tested and he had to see the signs to believe again and save his family. In the scene that pulls it all together for Graham, when the alien is holding Morgan, he has another flash back. He remembers when he went to speak with his wife for the last time and to hear her final words. She said to tell Morgan to play, Bo to listen to Morgan, Merrill to swing away, and for Graham to see. Colleen was pinned against a tree and should’ve been dead, but she waited for him to tell him these things. So when Graham looks around the room and at the alien holding his son, he then see’s Merrill’s bat and tells him to,” Swing away”. This ties into Merrill saying in the past that it felt wrong not to swing, he’s been preparing for this his
The movie begins 6 months after Graham lost his wife Colleen. He had since given up his priesthood and all belief in God. During this period Graham has been in the first stage of grief, denial. In his couch conversation with Merrill he points out that there
He remembers Colleen’s last words which were “Swing away,” and has to decide whether he believes that everything happens for a reason or whether everything is just a coincidence and there is no special meaning or miracle to it. He’s forced into finally seeing that there have been signs and there are no coincidences because Colleen said to swing away and if that was only a nonsense memory then he wouldn’t tell Merrill to swing his bat. Graham decides to side with the first philosophy of the people who believe in signs, miracles, and things happening for a reason. All the events that have occurred have been leading up to one moment. Including Morgan’s asthma—eventually saving him from the gas—and Bo’s water bombs that burned the aliens. Which now makes Graham again believe in God and this is shown when he is seen putting on his
Meryl was good with a baseball bat because he was destined to the moment that he had to kill the alien with the bat. Boa, Graham’s daughter was consistently leaving water around the house because water was kryptonite to the aliens. Morgan had asthma, because his respiratory system was destined to fail when the alien tried to poison him. At this instant Graham accepts the fact that Coleen’s death was a part of God’s ultimate plan, and that everything God does is for a reason. This time in the movie is where Grahams is able to transition from believing in philosophy two back to believing and philosophy one. Which was an important factor in bringing his family back together and becoming able to overcome the grief that resulted from Coleen’s death.
When Darry hit me, Johnny and I ran off to the park. Once we got to the park Socs came to the park and jumped us. When we were trying to defeat them, they overpowered us and I was being drowned by Bob, but when he stopped trying to drown me, I got out of the water and looked what he was doing, i just saw him in a puddle of blood and when I look at Johnny he said”I killed him”. So we ran off to Dally for a gun, money, and a plan. Once we got to Dally, he told us where to go and wait for him there, and gave us a gun and money. So we headed to the place he told us to go and while we were waiting for him we cut our hair and I bleached my hair but Johnny didn’t. Once Dally arrived, he gave me your letter and told us everything that has happened
It was my turn. We were losing 10-7. The bases were loaded 2 outs it was up to me to bring in the winning runs. I was the third, one of the best hitters on the team.
When I found out that my family and I were moving, I was shocked. I admit, when they had brought up the subject before I hadn’t exactly denied the idea, and I was actually okay with it. But I had no idea that it would actually happen. I knew that this change would be difficult, but I wasn’t aware of how much it would affect me.
CRACK!!! I send the ball out into right field. I hit it in the best spot possible, the runner on third scored, we won, because of my walkoff! Last year. I will never forget that year. For me (for the 2016 season), began at like field one (at the Kenosha Sports Complex), became a field of luck for me, both good and bad. Late March/Early April and it feels like I have finally got a good start on the baseball season, for once. My team plays another team with both a good coach and players, Firefighters. Eventually, I get up to the plate. The pitcher winds up and throws the ball, right where I like it, up in the strike zone and a little bit inside. I swing, and SMACK!!! I send the ball deep, so far that the outfielder just watched the ball sail
"Don't you dare look back, just keep your eyes on me!" I belted out, moving around slightly in my seat as I went round the roundabout.
The walls were starting to close in Ash and Green were yelling,” We got to get out! We got to move!” They were spewing random ways to escape but there was no way out. The walls were ten feet high and barbed. It was the perfect trap. I screamed ,“It's no use there's no way out.”
On July 11th, 2016, I had given my mom the worst news. The news that I had given her was that I moved with my dad, who lives four hours away. I've been living with my mom for 14 years so it was very difficult to move away from her. I made this decision because I thought that there would be more opportunities for me and to advance my education. I was happy with my decision until I was on the phone listening to my mom crying. Eventually, I was having a good summer even though I was upset about my mom. I then started summer school to meet new people so I would have friends during the school year. I met some really awesome and sweet people. The people that I had met were from a big city instead of a small town like me so it took me a couple of
We were all packed to the fullest and could not carry and more it's like if we try to put one more thing in in will blow up and all of are stuff will be all over the place.Were going to start driving it will be a long but not forgotten memory. So we started the road trip to Yankton the lake with my family my mom,dad,2 brothers,sister,2 dogs and me with are boat, jet ski and camper trailing close behind us.we take like 2 breaks there and 2 breaks back.
The entire town was gathered in front of our town hall surrounding the raised wooden platform that had one long wooden pole, where three ropes hung above each rebel. I watched from the sidelines next to my father, the Lieutenant General, searching for the familiar face I have come to know so well, my Daemon.
Alan spun around toward the noise. He aimed his gun carefully at the ledge, and calmed himself the best he could. Slow, deep breath after breath he took until he at a normal pace inside. He was now ready for anything. The growl had gone silent, and so had the forest. Whatever was out there was waiting for the right opportunity to come along.
Emitting vines from her arms, Sabra attempted to finish the fight quickly. Vittorio continued to show little concern watching the vines entangled around his arms. Sabra tugged on her vines, pulling Vittorio off the rock as he flew towards them. Gerard’s aura started to glow golden around his body, summoning his guardian angel. The aura gained a physical appearance resembling a monk. It sported gauntlets on both arms and a bead necklace, similar to what Gerard wore. Vittorio’s calm demeanor changed a bit, seeing the faceless monk standing next to Gerard. Vittorio placed his hand on the vines, using his manifestation to make them explode. Overdoing the explosion, everyone including Vittorio flew back a bit.
As I am walking back from the beach, I start to think about the lovely time I just spent painting a beautiful scene. However, I am always improving, but my paintings do not pay the bills. All I can think about is the man that Karen and Gabe are setting me up with. Oh, what was his name, Tom, that’s right Tom. I hope he does not mind that I am dressed in navy blue baggy pants, and a grey tank top with a blue plaid shirt over it, plus my lovely green fish-heads, because this make for one fabulous outfit. Nevertheless, it is an odd choice for clothing, but it is the artistic way. Maybe I should run up to the bathroom and freshen up a bit before I meet Tom, plus my hair is a sandy mess and I smell like a sweaty beach bum. However, that is the price an artist is willing to pay to make her piece known to the world.
