    prevents what is feared. In fact‚ a Will may be the most important document that you ever write‚ because it allows you to select the persons who will receive what you own when you die. If you don’t have one in place‚ you cannot select the recipients of your property and the state you reside in will determine how your property is divided. No one wants to talk about death‚ but it’s much easier to handle your probate issues while you are living than when you’re deceased. In “Summer Hours” Helene

    The Story of an Hour is a piece of literature that can be interpreted in to many different ways. Kate Chopin tells the reader in the beginning that Louis Mallard was afflicted with a heart problem. The attitude of the author towards the character of Mrs. Mallard varies with differing views on love and marriage. To me‚ the story depicts marriage as a loss of freedom. It also shows the kind of domination men had over their women in that period of time. This story is set in a time (late 1800’s)

    “The Story of an Hour” is a short story written by Kate Chopin. In this story‚ there are a lot of symbols. They range from as little as an open window‚ to as big as heart disease. Symbols can be very crucial to literature‚ and the story’s meaning. The symbols in this story are very interesting to me. I do not think the story would be as meaningful as it is if they were not included. When Mrs. Mallard first goes up to her room‚ she is described as being‚ “pressed down by a physical exhaustion that
