Anna needs to sit and talk with donna as to why she did what she had done even if that isn't like something anna would do. Donna is someone who feels lesser and always wanted to be like anna popular pretty etc. Donna lacks confidence and doesn't feel like she can be that so she decides to lie to anna and talk behind her back but only because anna was mean to her and didn't really give her the light of day or sympathy or any other form of feelings beside a tiny bit of friendship. Donna's boyfriend didn't even really like her he more liked anna and anna's boyfriend liked her but she liked the teacher. I believe neither donna nor anna deserve sympathy they were both extremely rude to everyone and they should think about what they did and try their best to make it better otherwise they may aswell just abandon being friends with anyone or even being popular anna needs to apologize to donna as well and they should just kiss and

  • Holden Caulfield Grief Essay

    1118 Words  | 5 Pages

    Arrested development works in more than one fashion for Holden Caulfield, as not only does he desperately cling to the past, but his five stages of grief are similarly slowly processed—namely denial. J.D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye follows Holden as he adapts to life alone in the city, and is forced to deal with the consequences of living in the real world. After projecting his issues onto others throughout the novel, only by accepting his own shortcomings does Holden finally start taking steps towards changing his life for the better. Holden’s little brother, Allie, passed away some years before the story takes place, and is one of the biggest factors in his refusal to let go of the past.

    In our world it is hard to indicate whether it is genuine when an individual is treated in a kind matter or being deceived in order to get exploited for something in one’s possession. It is quite unfortunate that in this world, homo sapiens use a gift such as kindness in order to deceive and get whatever they desire, instead of being genuinely kind to one another. A person should not have to doubt the truthfulness behind someone’s kindness towards them. The readers of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby experience this false goodness and deception, through the false belief that Jay Gatsby is a kind hearted soul, with a pure and white soul; Contrary to that false belief, Gatsby is in truth, foolish, pathetic and a man who repeatedly sin and prove he is not
