Kate Chopin

The Story of an Hour:OK so to break it down for you in SIMPLER ways this short passage relates to how freedom comes in many forms or ways yet they may not always come to you in the way you want it to.The story is based on i my own belief that to bear something heavy on yourself such as love may bring either happiness or hatred towards your or the life your living.As you see in this story that Mrs.Mallard is happy with the fact that she is living with a jerk at times she loves him and others she doesn't however most of the time she doesn't whether or not she knew this before marrying him is not of my concern but what it simply is that sometimes people must really live their lives before they settle down makes everything more joyful.

The Blind Man:Well this story has more to deal with the fact that many of us don't take the time to help out the less fortunate that we as human beings just like them do not take the mind nor time to find some way to help out the frail or the needy.You see older or younger alike you can have disabilities that affect the way you live life the way you handle things.People who are blind,cant walk,cant thin straight,or either don't know how to control themselves need our help we can WE have the power to do something.....yet we don't?Why is my question take as to me i before in the past cared less about others but coming to older age realize that i share this world with many other people that can use may help.Kate here uses disability and how we with more stuff (us being poor and others being homeless etc poor. we don't care as Long as they don't interfere we simply ignore them.As she well described that in this story The Blind Man she shows us how we react to helping those who need it she shows that we ignore and forget that they need help and how at times those who need it cant help themselves not even to the extent that even of the simplest things can they accomplish.

Desiree's Baby:Racism is still happening in our world today and yet not so long ago this author Kate Chopin described and explained not in wording but in stories such as this one that when we are unsure of someone and we do not know where they come from we may think there part of a place where they not.It happens yes even today we think that ooh look at him hes that certain color and ton of his skin he Mexican so is she and him to...!So when you look at it there not we may look the same to some people but we come from different places like who you thought to be Mexican could have been Puerto Rican or Cuban or Spanish or Ecuadorian you see when you think and you see you ll know the difference.Desirees baby for example Armand the Father noticed that his kid was becoming of the color of slavery Black and could not accept it so him not knowing where Desiree was from cast the blame on her when in fact it was the opposite him such a grand man of wealth and power actually wore invisible chains to slavery in which he thought he was superior to when he was indeed not.Although Racism can be more of a violent culture nowadays in earlier times there was no race if colored that is what you were you belonged to one category all together no Difference between the different races.
