He followed his intuition to follow the charity because they meant more than his job. For me, when it comes to difficult situations, I follow my brain and my heart. I follow logic and what I feel passionate about. One big decision in life that I can think as of now was choosing which college was right for me. I had the choice between FIU and USF. They’re both amazing schools but my heart was leaning towards FIU. This turned out to the best choice as I feel extremely comfortable and confident that I will succeed in this school.

Both FIU and this book has reminded the importance of volunteering and being kind to others in need of help. Even if the action is small, it can go a long way. This year I will be going back to the hospital to resume volunteering and bringing a smile on the patient’s

Later in the novel, when Queequeg comes off the whale, the dough-boy gives him ginger-jub, as per Aunt Charity's orders. Stubb thunders and sends for more manly grog, then "Aunt Charity¹s gift...was freely given to the waves."(Monkey-Rope p. 419) So, even though we are told that she has been indefatigable in her efforts, the only gifts enumerated are trivial and silly, befitting someone who has no idea of the seriousness of the work involved.
