Connection to Trees


My connection to nature is that trees are like a human life. Each time a time a tree loses its leaves and gains them back would be like another birthday for a person. The cycle continuously repeats itself until the tree dies.

Charlie Chaplin

Charlie Chaplin was an actor. His hometown was in England. He was not a U.S. citizen. The HUAC believed he was putting Communist propaganda into his films. He also supported the aid of Russia's struggle against the invading Nazis during World War II. The U.S. government wondered about his moral and political views. They  suspected him of having Communist ties

The Crucible Act I

Talking about the Crucilbe in calss helps make things clearer. Like figuring out if Abigail and Mary Warren were just servants or if tehy were slaves and what the possible reasons were for the accusings of certain people. I think it is interesting that when Tituba and Abigail were asked if they saw Goody Good or Goody Osburn they said they had because they knew those were the names that the others wanted to hear. They also accused others that they didn't like. I also find it interesting how well of an actress Betty was to pretend like she had fainted. Ruth did pretty well but Betty did a better job because she kept her eyes shut the entire time.

In nature you see a new flower starting to bloom. You see a fawn with its mother. New life is a beautiful thing. I learned that my cousin is having twins, and two other cousins are having babies too. They are all expecting around the same time. God is giving my family a lot of new members.

A great religious lesson is that God makes things happen for a reason. It seems that the reason we are getting so many new additions to the family is so that we will realize it's God's plan for us. God wants us to know that we are His children and we need to give thanks to Him for the new life that is all around us.
