A Book is a loaded Gun (Esperanza)



Captain Beatty says, “A book is a loaded gun in the house next door...Who knows who might be the target of the well-read man?” He is giving the books power over man because once a human gets the “itch” that would be the other target for the books. They thought it would be easier because they didn’t want to take there time to teach every single human being in the world a lesson. No I don’t see this happening to our world because everyone, no matter who you are need education to start their life later on and teaching everyone the skills they need to succeed. Another reason why I don’t see our world like that is because reading is good for your brain; it’s actually a proven fact. They say that when you read, you learn. You're actually exercising your brain, because reading makes you think. Reading is good for your brain, increasing blood flow and bathing your brain in nutrients, oxygen, and others things believed to promote higher cognitive-emotional processing. Reading, also, causes your brain to work harder, which builds stronger brain cell connections. So, reading is good for everyone and I wouldn’t want people to change that for the future of our kids and adults.

Dreams (Esperanza)


1Dreams represent of mostly what you think about all the time or what happened in your life that really meant something to you. Dreams can be very powerful. Have you ever just laid there and was only half asleep then you dream about that your trip or you have fallen then you wake up because you thought you were actually have fallen. That’s one way a dream can be powerful cause it can make it feel real. It can affect your reality cause sometimes you dream of stuff that haven’t happen yet and when it does it has that day-ja-vu affect. Sometime dreams can scare you so bad that your scared of everything you do or what you don’t want to see. For example, if you got scared so bad from a monster chasing you in the middle of the night and you woke up in a cold sweat. Then, maybe you will start being scared of the dark and wont talk to anyone that you wouldn’t know
2No friends and family do not have the right to tell you whom to love or to marry unless it’s the law and then they will have to follow there rules unless there madly in love with that person and will fight to try and keep them together. Our society today changed so much, today people can fall in love with who ever they want, like if they were friends from school and started to have deep feelings for each other and then start going on dates, living with each other then maybe have a baby by then and soon they get married. Friends and family do play a role in who you love cause they taught you how, like for example, if your father was abusive then the child would want to find someone better then what there mom was going thru and find someone who would love you and never lay a finger on you that will upset you. Everyone sees grown up, growing up and they learn from what they see and how they feel bout that and some kids do the right choose and pick a different path then what there parents went thru to have a better life. Other follow there fathers or mothers footsteps cause they think it was ok to do that growing up, it just all depends on how you grew up and how you were treated and taught
