In order to begin considering Bryan’s income for 2011, the first thing we need to determine is whether he is employed or self employed as an independent contractor.

The Door in the Wall is a thrilling tale that has much symbolism about opportunity’s that can spring up out of disappointment. Marguerite de Angeli who wrote this book, published it in 1949. It is set in England during middle ages, as the bubonic plague was sweeping through. Robin the main character is a young boy who looses the movement of his legs and now can’t become a knight like his father. This symbolizes a door shutting. He then learns how to carve things and play an instrument similar to a harp. This is a door opening. The characters in the story highlight easy and hard times proving that anyone can have doors opened and closed in their lives.

In “The Painted Door” by Sinclair Ross, it is evident that light is used to illustrate the degradation of Ann’s devotion to John as the night approaches and the time spent with Steven, due to John’s absence, lengthens. This is first demonstrated when the setting of a landscape with “bitter light” (1) is established. Despite the bitterness, caused by Ann and John’s non-communicative relationship, the light exemplifies that Ann retains a secure devotion towards John and is confident that he will return home no matter what circumstances. Moreover, this is demonstrated when Ann offers to “paint the kitchen wood-work… to make the room a lot lighter” (2).

This is the place that changed Robin as a person. Sister Rachel found him in a sketchy part of town bleeding out from a knife fight. She took him back to the orphaned and nursed him to health. When Robin was younger he did not think he could do anything, but be a thug because his parents died early. Sister took him in and changed his outlook on life: “ I believe you must be naturally good at something in order to find your calling… for example, and I cared about people, especially children, and that’s how I found my calling” (Sullivan 115).

The movie, Sliding Doors, incorporates Positive Emotions, Engagement, Positive Relations, Meaning, and Accomplishment/Achievement (PERMA). It engages the viewer, through a story of “what ifs” concerning the main character, Helen, additionally making the viewer think about the what ifs in their own life.
