The Hero's Journey-Personal Narrative

The Witch of Blackbird Pond, by Elizabeth George Speare, shows true friendship in the story. At one point in the story, some people turned Katherine Tyler in as a witch at a trial, but she came out unharmed. Friendship is an important trait, and that it supports loyalty, so because Kit made a lot of friends, and for example, at the trial, one of her best friends, Nathaniel Eaton, stood up for her.

As I read through “Sonny's Blues”, to familiarize myself with the story again, I began to build my argument against the narrator/brother. The conclusion that I have drawn is simply that the brother plays a pivotal role in this story from its beginning to the end. The first impression is that the brother doesn't seem to feel anything, when he reads about his brother’s incarceration in the paper. He seems to be mindless yet deep in thought of Sonny, both as a young boy and now as a grown man. How did his brother come to be delivered at this place? Because all of our paths in life are not forged out by ourselves alone, the people that we are around such as our family, friends, passerby’s, and our life events are key in who we will become or

It was one time, that I let my thoughts control me, take me to heaven, then set the world on fire. The sky was a soft shade of blue, the birds were chirping, and the sun was bright and radiant. My friend approached me in our free period, and we had a conversation that grabbed my attention.

For as long as I can remember I have been a skier. Two years ago I decided to try alpine touring (or randonnée skiing). The only real difference between alpine touring and downhill is that instead of taking the chairlift up the mountain, you put skins on the bottom of your skis and hike up.

People can change in different ways. Some things change them very suddenly, but sometimes it can take time. A sudden change can be caused by choices, wants, and decisions.

Have you ever woken up early to watch the sunrise, patiently waiting for the second when everything will unfold? At that precise moment, the sky turns into a spectacular display of colors, while the sun emerges from the darkness, bringing in the new day. But before you can truly realize the profound beauty of what you have witnessed, the world has moved on, and the sun’s daylight is blindingly bright, yet dull compared with the incomprehensible beauty of what was there before. As beautiful as the sunrise is, it can not last forever. In S.E. Hinton’s realistic fiction novel The Outsiders, the Greasers have to live through loss of their families, friends, and the things they love the most. But they always will have the memories of those

The Mississippi never freezes over. I guess that’s why everybody claimed it to be a miracle. I was already missing the Beautiful City by the time my new leather boots set foot on the frozen river. Months before the journey Momma was already sewing us new clothes and saving her coins to purchase us boots from the tailor. Leaving Nauvoo, was one of the hardest things I’ve done. Prophet Brigham Young taught us faith and how that will keep us going on this trek to Zion. I found that it is much easier to sing about Zion than actually making the journey. A few days into the trek several families turned around and headed back.

Well today my friends and I was issued a challenge, by a mysterious challenger. No one at my table was going to take the challenge , but I spoke up at the last moment. It was me.. All the challenge was to cut off his head and if he survived, he could do the same to you. Of course it was random but I didn’t want to seem weak in front of my friends. I chopped his head off with a single swipe and I and his head fell off. I laughed a little bit after it.. but that all changed when he leaned over and picked his head back up after it being off his ..body. I was terrified because I know my fate was sealed at that moment. He said to meet me at the green chapel in a years time and one day. I set out for my adventure after saying my good byes. I just rode straight not knowing where to go

Earthmaker made the world with trees and fields, with rivers, lakes, and springs, and with hills and valleys. However, there weren’t any humans, and so one day he decided to make some. He scooped out a hole in a stream bank and lined the hole with stones to make a hearth, and he built a fire there. Then he took some clay and made a small figure that he put in the hearth to bake. He then realized that it was only half-baked. That figure became the white people. He decided to try again, so he put a new figure in the hearth to bake. He realized that this figure was overbaked and it became the black people. The Earthmaker decided to try one more time. He put this figure in the hearth to bake and this figure was baked just right, and it became the red people. The red people became many tribes, and they spread across the land. Among these tribes were the Ojibwe, the Ottawa, and the Potawatomi. A man

That’s so great. I love traveling, but my family isn’t really the traveling type (probably because we’re so big and it’s expensive). So I normally travel alone or with my church too. I’ve been on four mission trips so far, but this will be the first year I won’t be going. As for the Grand Canyon, I was too small to stand on the edge, but it’s on my bucket list of things to do.

Where am I? The last thing that I could remember was defending my home from invaders. Now I am stiff and cold. I pushed and shoved, there was a ripping and tearing sound. Suddenly I was blinded by a light. The light was so bright compared to the darkness I had to rub my eyes for five minutes until I could see clearly again. It was very green at this new place. There were perfect hills with perfect grass to cover them. I started to see things flying around in the sky, but I couldn’t see them clearly. There was this wonderful sound that I figured out was singing. Not long after I woke up two fairies opened the truck of their SUV. When I got out of the trunk I was very unstable on my feet. They then said, “Welcome to Aza Land.”

Hero’s Journey can be implicated at life because people have all these adventures that they do not plan out. If someone choses to do something with their life and make them matter to people then they will most likely experience all parts of Hero’s Journey. “A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.” (Campbell) These are wise words spoken by Joseph Campbell. In my opinion the person that fits this description based on what I think is Bernie Sander. He is fighting for equal rights of all people. Those that are have different skin color than other or those that have a different sexuality and those that have been treated unfairly in their life and throughout history. Bernie Sanders is a motivational hero,

I have read lots of books while I was in 5th grade but one of them really stands out. When I was in Fiji I finished my book and needed something to do. My brother handed me a book. By the end of the day, I had finished a book called Dorothy Must Die By Danielle Paige and I adored it. I read it so often that my brother got mad at me because I never put the book down. It was a joy reading it, and I was so grieved when it ended. I hope that all human beings read Dorothy Must Die someday or another.

It has been a long journey throughout, while me and my family have been traveling for 1 year from southern Europe. We have been on ships that had rusted to paint down rivers that have faded to the color of blue from the pollution on trucks that have been crushed and beat to nearly a frame and walk more than 500 miles and old roads filled with trash with little food but enough to survive the long days and even longer nights. My sister Mia shoes had melted from the small puddles of blue liquid had ate them right of her feet as she walked and didn't have time to stop we have about 1 week to get the port. So I let her have mine as I walked on broken glass and sharp rocks but I had some support as such as socks.

This entire passage directly relates to Mrs. Mallard 's realization that she finally has freedom..She was bounded by her husband, by convention, as well as by society. With his death, she is merely a widow.... someone to be humored and left to her own devices. She sees the outdoors as an unlimited future.
