It all started on Mysterious Island- a home for all of the element powered creatures. Hi, I’m Gertrude Stone and things haven’t been going well in my village, but we’ll get too that later. First, we’re going to zoom in on my neighborhood. My neighbor (also one of my closest friends) is Juniper Styx, she has the power to control water.

My cousin Lenard Pine is the only family I have since… “The Accident.” Anyway, Lenard can control plants and read animal minds (it's pretty amazing). We’ve been living together for about nine years now since my parents died. If it wasn’t for our friends, it would just be us(by the way I’m now fifteen and my cousin …show more content…
Why are you thanking me, said Gertrude. Because, you always find a way to cheer me up, said Lenard, and you don’t give up on me. …..(Gertrude thought for a second), without you I would have given up my legacy, friends, everything.

Massachusetts, 1692... what an awful time to be alive. Especially for a young, timid girl by the name of Clarabeth. Not exactly the most special of girls, just a hard worker for her family, an all around fair person.

I’m Helen Robinson, Tom Robinson’s wife. There was a timeframe in the book just after Tom was killed, before Helen could find a secure way to earn money for her family; it was a very unstable time for her and her children.

Even till today I have never experienced family bonding ; it was always just my father, my mother, my brother, and me. I never had the experience of going to grandma’s house and having Thanksgiving dinner. I never felt the feeling of receiving Christmas presents from all my family members. Till this day I have never gotten the chance to say “Hey mom I’m going over my cousins
Today me and Slim walked to the bunkhouse together, just chattin’ about the little pup that Slim gave to Lennie, which is moreover a kind gesture of him, since we both know that it means a lot to Lennie. Now the big guy’s got something to pet. I hope this keeps him damn busy, so he won’t do anything stupid which will get us in trouble.

I felt proud at that moment, and as proud as I am I told him that Lennie can do anything if it doesn’t require much thinking.

The Other infiltrates our existence to the point at which we question ourselves about our very own Otherness ,escaping the self is impossible and in that sense, we can never know the other and perceive their universe from their point of view. Othering is due less to the dissimilarity of the other than to the point of view of the person who perceives the Other as such. In this context, Otherness is defined as the unknown, as the opposite to oneself or as the outsider marked by outward signs like race and gender. As such, Otherness has also been associated with marginalized people, those who by their difference from the leading group, have been rejected, casted away and robbed of their voice in the social, religious, and political world.
