The Last Spirit's Lesson

Monday December 14, 2009

Would you hate it if you ran out of money because you gave to much money away? What if you gave to much money to the homeless and then you became homeless because you couldn't pay your bills. Everyone should take care of themselves first and when you are healthy and have money to take care of you then you should give and help other people. So you should come first in your life and when you can give you need to, but not until you are able to. Some people will give when they don't have enough money and become homeless and take food from the food bank when they should have waited and saved up to give to charities. People should follow my philosophy because it will keep people from becoming homeless but at the same time help the homeless get back on their feet. So people do have the right to look out for number one.

A Christmas Carol

Scrooges diary
December 24,1843

today I was bugged my incompetent nephew who was trying to talk me into being jovial twords the holidays that i cannot bare to live through. People that try to cheer me up become my worst enemies. My clerk wanted to have the day off but i pay him too much for him to pick my pocket every year, he doesn't even do that much work for me. I will be the only one working in the Scrooge and Marley shop. Three Neanderthal men wanted me to donate to the hobos who live on the street. I donate to more important things like prisons, those are what we need to donate to. Christmas is not a time of giving its a fake holiday and everyone who celebrates it doesn't know what a real holiday is. I wish everyone didn't talk to me and ask me to give to preposterous charities just because its some holiday. Bah humbug to everyone , i have my money thats all I need.

Bah Humbug

Pearl symbolism

The pearl symbolizes hope that Coyotito will go to school and save his people from poverty and lack of education. It also symbolizes greed from the people who want to take the pearl from Kino.

In Kino it brings out fear, hope, and desire because he is now rich and can buy whatever he wants. I think it does because now he can have whatever he wants and before he didn't have any money.

In Jauna she wants to get rid of the pearl because she can see its tearing them apart. I think that because she wants to have the simple life they've always had.

In the neighbors it brings out curiosity about the pearl Kino found, and when Coyotito got bit by the scorpion. I think that because they follow Kino and Juana wherever they go.

It brings out greed in the doctor because before Kino had money he denied his request for help. But now that Kino has the pearl hes willing to help Kino.

It brings out greed in the priest also. Because he thinks of all the repairs the church needs when he sees the pearl and how much its worth.

In the townspeople it brings out jealousy. They start being mad because they think its unfair, and that they should have found the pearl of the world.
