Post 6: how the author's life of your Doc1 story/poem affects the story or poem. Use quotes & links.

The author Gail Godwin feels " this selection she shows how a marriage does not always lead to a perfect life. Godwin uses “A Sorrowful Woman” to portray modern marriages. “A Sorrowful Woman” is a parody of fairy tales. The traditional fairy tale has a fixed resolution- everyone lives happily ever after. "

Post 5: A sorrowful woman By: Gail Godwin

This poem out the book is based on how story of a woman who is no longer satisfied with her role of being a perfect mother for her son and a perfect wife for her husband. This study would critically analyze the plots and characters of this story. The heroine of Gail Godwin's short story "A Sorrowful Woman" seems inexplicable. Apparently healthy, married to a "durable, receptive, gentle" husband, and mother of a three-year-old son, she seems to have no aspirations beyond the roles of wife and mother she more than competently fulfills.

Post 4: what 2 of your colleagues learned about their stories; use quotes & links.

One of my colleagues Jaylen Pope, talked about how she liked  Godwin's "A Sorrowful Women". For this she said that its a story about a woman who doesn't want to take her role as wife and mother. The woman cuts off her feelings towards her family, and the outside world."The woman is depressed that she cannot find a role that she can be content with. She tried things like trying on different costumes and moving to the white room but she is still unsatisfied."

2nd of colleagues Israel Walker , talked about a "Poem Caged Bird". For this she describes how this" poem because its powerful to me and one i did for a contest, and i haven't done them in a long time. so it was interesting for me to choose the hardest one to start off with, but that one really speak to me and I could feel and understood what she was saying every time I would reread it, and as I go back to all of the ones I did I spent  most of my  time on this one, I don't know why. maybe because i really liked it and felt the passion and or maybe because I needed the practice"..

Post 3: about what you have learned about your story

I learned that it shows my inner feelings. Expressing my life and how I feel within. Also, saying that things may not go easy but its soon to get there. Although you may not believe so but it is slowly but surely. Things may not always go your way but you still can manage what you need to get done.

One of my favorite movies, is called Beyond the Lights, This movie basically talks about a superstar named Noni. She was always looked at the outer world different from what she really was inside. Noni mother always looked at her to be perfect at a young age, when she really wanted to be young and free. As, she was in her famous career, Noni ran into a cop named Kaz, who helped her find the courage to develop her own voice and break free to become the artist she was meant to be. She never felt so loved and beautiful from within. She looked to her guy friend Kaz for all type help. He was there to surrender her, through the rough times in her career. Noni not only liked to looked up but she also wanted her space to though. She wanted to be independent, from the rest of the world.
I really enjoy this movie, it made me think about myself. Putting myself in her shoes and imaging the pain and hurt, nut the also the love and peace.
