thinking is clear and your writing is quite clear too but you need to be more specific in some points The main point of Araby The Things They Carried and A P is men s feelings of love They are all in the world of fantasy of romance that incites them to hasty acts and lead away from actuality However they undergo the collapse of imaginations that play in their heads because of collision of such fantasies with cruel reality Love is a beautiful feeling to which we open our hearts and souls to the people whom we have deep feeling for I like this sentence In the three readings each character experiences different type of love that involves into deep thoughts about themselves and their life The theme of Araby is about an innocent love The main character of the story is a young boy who displays signs of adolescent love towards a young girl that who lives in the same building This is a perfect setting for romance to seed and nourish The boy demonstrates his attraction to the young girl next door by waiting for her day after day and daydreaming about her Every morning I lay on the floor in the front parlour watching her door When she came out on the doorstep my heart leaped I ran to the hall seized my books and followed her I kept her brown figure always in my eye This is a good explanation of first love because for the first time young person doesn t control feeling He the boy just feels what he feels and does what his feelings tell him to do This love is going from a heart not from a head The boy also has uncontrollable thoughts on her he pointed all details her clothing wrapping around her body her rope like hair and her soft smooth neck Yet something in the young boy prohibits him from his love to the girl He waits in the shadows for her from the street he looks for her from behind the blinds from the safety of his home he trembles when he thinks about her In the other side on the reading The Things They Carried the author it doesn t sound right Tim O Brien presents us a platonic love This love appears in the character Lieutenant Jimmy Cross to a girl named Martha a junior at Mount Sebastian College in New Jersey An example of this love is They were not love letters but Lieutenant Cross was hoping so he kept them folded in plastic at the bottom of his rucksack So Jimmy Cross understands that Martha doesn t love him even though she is writing letters to him The letters weighed ten ounces They were signed Love Martha but Lieutenant Cross understand that Love was only a way of signing and did not mean what he sometimes pretended it meant Like in Araby in The Things They Carried authors show deep feeling from the men s side and no answer from girls Jimmy Cross s love for Martha was so strong that she was constantly on his mind and a priority in his life The daydreaming about Martha is a way that Cross took himself completely away from the war He could be thousands of miles away on a quiet beach in Jersey as the war raged on around him Like in Araby this dreaming is escaping from reality from cruelty to the romance and happiness The last story A P related to the others mostly by Sammy desire to change his life by quitting his job that revealed after he saw girls in bathing suits in the store Like Jimmy Cross desires to be far away from a war at the beach with Martha and was there in his head Sammy wants to have another life Like Jimmy Cross who doesn t know what he is doing in the war Sammy doesn t know why he is in this store and doing this boring job The only thing that gives him the courage to quit is his attraction to Queenie love makes him strong Sammy s entire world consists of the grocery store which is artificially heated and cooled and has everything one could ever need in the way of food and many other products One day when three girls walk into the store Sammy is strongly attracted to one of them She kept her eyes moving across the racks and stopped and turned so slow it made my stomach rub the inside of my apron Similar to Araby s boy whose heart leaped when he saw young girl Sammy s Queennie arouses his interest Later when the manager warns the girls not to return to the store if they are wearing swimsuits Sammy tries to come to their rescue by standing up to his boss and even quits his job for them In other words Sammy is or wants to be their knight in shining armor he wants to rescue his Queen Like boy in the Araby and Jimmy Cross in A P Sammy also fells heartache and sorrowful emotions In all three stories main characters experience deep feeling and conflict with themselves Love can be happiness or can destroy if a person is not control his emotions and feelings http://www.englishforums.com/English/CheckGrammarEssayCritic/kqvv/post.htmFri, 05 Nov 2004 22:32:17

I like that very very much Please do it again Common in films and novels of an adult nature Best avoided in other contexts This phrase does have a slightly exaggerated air and is likely to make people
