Humans

In my opinion, humans are always evil by default. I have always thought this, and I don't really think that anything could change my mind. I think the root of it is because of greed and desire. Usually, it has to do with someone wanting something that someone else has, but then they take it without permission. 

My entire life I have had experiences with evil people. I could remember when I would watch the news when I was a kid. I would see stories of people killing their own family just for money or for disagreements. And just recently a man was beaten to death with a frying pan by his girlfriend because she said that "he needed killing". Honestly, I have no idea what is going through people's heads whenever they do these things, but I don't think it is good.

Symbolism

There used to be a mother and her son. His dad left when he was little, and they were both living in a house about ten miles away from town by a large field. The mother worked at a small sawmill managing books, and the son spent every weekday going to Mrs. Getrid's second-grade class. But there was one thing that Mrs. Getrid never understood. Every day the students would go home to eat lunch, but the son never had his mother pick him up. He always walked away from school even though his house was miles away from the school. He would always come back, hungry, and would continue school like normal. The mother never even knew that the children came home for lunch. She never really paid attention to her own son, and the son knew this. But nonetheless, she worked the books for the sawmill every day managing where the money went. She was good at her job too, but there was always one aspect of the books that she would never check. That was her salary. She was quite embarrassed by how ...

My Own Prompt

Prompt: Who was/is the most formative in your life. Why? The most formative person in my life was my Papa. Papa is what I call my grandfather. He taught me two main lessons. The first one was about work. Every summer I would go to the farm and work with Papa. We would work really, really hard. He always told me that it would all pay off in the future. He was correct because every year we would sell the cattle that we had taken care of. The second lesson is a little more ridiculous. He would always say, "if you cant go first class, then don't go." This means that one should strive for the very best, or one should not strive at all. He took this seriously in all aspects of life. He got the very best farming equipment, the very best technology, and the very best fountain pens(his hobby at the time) that he could acquire. He could do this because he worked so hard. So I guess that the first lesson that he taught me feeds into the second one.
