Heritage

think about the objects that represent your heritage.
What are they? What exactly do they represent? Are all the memories associated with them pleasant? How so? Write as if writing got great-grandchildren that explains your heritage


Dear Great-grandchildren,

These objects that I'm passing to you have been passed down from generation to generation. This rope is significant because my grandpa used it to rope cows, bulls,goats and horses. This rope holds memories,  of when my grandpa tied up a goat on the tree to make dinner. My brother helped tie up the goat and gut the goat, after I helped to make the dinner which was the goat. This experience with my grandpa was such a great experience and great memories.

On Allegory

Think about a subject you know well, say the role of parent or student or job-holder, and sketch out an allegory based on that subject. If you consider working in a fast-food restaurant as allegory, for instance, you might see yourself as Mercury, speeding from one spot to another, delivering food to the gods. The patrons, then, would take on the characteristics of various gods from Greek mythology.

A parent responsibility is to help the child follow the right path, teach from right and wrong. Parents are the care taker and guardians of the child, they are supposed to be the role models, at times they are the friend.
Parents are like the hero's or angels of a child they pick them up when they fall, or adopt them when they have no one. Super women and super man for example, these individuals save people in a time of need, like superheros parents come swooping in to save and guard children.
