The Story Of An Hour

I like this story because the wife had a heart problem and they thought that she was going to have trouble when they gave her the bad news. It was funny because when they told the woman she just walked away i thought she was going to have problems but instead she was really happy. she was thinking about how she was going to spend her life and have so much fun without her husband like she didnt even care that the man she married died it's weird but a litle funny. what the funniest thing that happend was that when she saw her husband and in reality he wasnt dead she screamed and she died the doctors said that she died because she got too happy to see him it was really funny. i like this story a lot it made me laugh when they said that she died because she got too happy which was not true and she didn't even like her husband that much.

The Blind Man

This story is really sad because it shows how in reality some people are to disabled people and think that they are weird and not human. In this story there is a man that is blind and he goes walking knocking on people's windows and a rich man gives him some pencils so he could sell only because he wanted him to leave his yard. People act like they dont see him and they see him walking in the sun and nobody tells him '' oh come over here into the shade so you wont get hot'' but they just let him figure it out himself. They act like he is nothing and they treat him like a animal that is sad even the children don't respect him he is blind and they try to rob him but they couldn't, and then a police officer starts to pull him like nothing almost beating him up but he didn't because he is blind. After that a rich man gets ran over by some cars and all these people start screaming and the blind man says '' where did these people come from'' because they were all quiet and trying to not get noticed by him and nobody offers to help him cross the street and more that he could get ran over because he is blind. This is also how some people do act to people that are disabled like if they are mentally challenged they make fun of them and that is wrong and bad, and they also people that are different then they are like if they are blind or deaf that they say oh look at that freak of nature and that is wrong because they didn't choose to be like that and if they could they wouldn't want to be like that if they could choose.
