In the poem The Road Not Taken the color of the woods where the road diverged was yellow. The other roads bend in the undergrowth. He took the other road because it was less traveled by. They were about the same. The wanderer of roads wouldn't return to the other road because it bend in the undergrowth. He would be telling this story with a sigh, Somewhere ages and ages hence . The tone the author's use is serious about the road he took. He took the one that looked grassy and wanted wear. Yes his choice was important. This poem speaks about choices that don't assume by looking at something that is going to be the right one. Sometimes we have to try both things to make a decision.
The Hispanic Legend of La Llorona influenced the short story "Dead End" because they both talk about how they parent's would tell them about the Llorona. Maria choices was to take care of her sister and brother since her mom wasn't there no more and also she chose to keep going to school to become what she wanted to become for so long. Maria promised her mom that she would never give up her dreams of getting a good education. Since her mom always told her she never had the chance to do it, her mother wanted Maria to finish school and Maria wanted to get a good education as well. Promises are important in making choices, because if you promise your self something and for some reason try to give up you will always remember the promise and keep going. Maria would see how the popular kids in her school would be cutting class and having some fun. Maria sometimes wondered why she couldn't be out there, dress like the other girls or sit in the backseat of Frankie car. Then one night Frankie passed by Maria house and Maria left with him and he was smoking weed and Maria tried it. Maria chose to be good as she always was and not be with the guy she like so much or be like the other girls she wanted to be, because education was more important for her. I agree with the choice she made at the end because she had to take responsibility since her mother wasn't there no more and take care of her brother and sister and also accomplish the promise she said to her mom. Once I had to make a choice into either go to school or drop out because I didn't have enough credit in my old school to finish on time, and I didn't want to stay there for another year. Until I found out about this school, my choice was to come to this school and finish high school because I really want to go to college and have a great future for my daughter and my self.
In The Tyranny of Choice talks about choices among your feelings. There's a connection between choice and happiness because if I feel like I don't want to do something my choice is that I'm most likely not doing it. If someone's choice is good, more is better for us. People who care about having infinite options will benefit from them. We are happy in making choice, but sometimes is difficult to make a choice in somethings such as going to school or staying home. Sometimes we too tired to go to school but the feeling of not wanting to go make my choice to not go to school,when I know the right choice is to go. I really think feelings has to do with the choice I make everyday. Sometimes I make choices that instead of making me happy actually makes are depress. As the gross domestic product more than double in the past 30 years, the proportion of the population describing itself as "very happy" declined by about 5%. This means more of us than ever are clinically depressed. I am a maximizer because I aim to make the best possible choice for my self. Regret can change my choice of saying to my self I should never chose to do that in the future. Or by saying I really regret making this choice. Remember your choices are not always going to be how I expect it to be. We actually have high expectations when making a choice because I really believe I made the greatest choice for my self.
The meaning to this cartoon about is about the choices we have to make a decision on. We basically ask our self if we sure about the choice we are about to make. We might say should I go for it or no, or maybe it would actually be a good choice. That's what this cartoon is trying to say.
Choice is something we make everyday, from the time we wakeup until we go back to sleep. People's emotions have to do with the choice we make. Sometimes the choice we make doesn't go the way we expect it to go but we have to deal with it and try to make a better choice next time. Choice is a really important thing because the choice we make now depends on our future. If our choice is to not go to school and just stay home being lazy the consequence of that choice is that we are not going to make it to college and live a miserable life for making the wrong choice.
