Blog 21

Today, when I talked with my friend about my English 110 research paper, I told her that I feel lost about my topic. I cannot find any fresh idea for my paper. I read several articles, and I only focus on one side: how people make a choice when they face a difficult time. This side is not enough for my essay, but I have no clue about any other sides of this topic. Then my friends said: “Do you remember what we read in last quarter, the essay about mountain climber? I think it is a good point for your paper.” She is right about it. I reread that article, and find some fresh ideas from it.
The article about mountain climber I read last quarter is talking about how mountain climbers made different choices. When mountain climbers face a huge mountain, some of them choose to climb to the top of the mountain, but some of them give up half way. Those climbers who go to the top get honors, and they also get more dangerous. A lot of famous climbers die on their way to the top or on the way they come back. They left their families behind. Their children need to face their childhoods without fathers (mothers). Those climbers who give up half way, they give up climbing not because they do not have the ability to the top. They give up because they think about their families. In fact, one of the give up climbers is the one who have been all 18 highest mountains’ tops in the world.
There is a special relationship between what you want to do and what you going to choice. People should know what is more important in their minds before they make a choice. The choice you make should follow your heart.
