In class we discussed these essays. The essays were mostly about differences in life style. One essay was more of a religious point of view on life and how the writer felt about accepting god and what he stood for in his life. The other essay that was read was about Helen Keller and how she survived in life being blind and deaf. It shared many facts about her growing up and how she learned to distinguish many different facts and learned how to read. These essays were both about different life styles and about surviving in the real world.

This is amazing how someone could learn all the things Helen did even though she could not hear or see.
