In the text Twenty Questions by G Lee Bowie‚ I chose the chapter “Why Shouldn’t I Be Selfish”? In that chapter the two selections that were chosen were The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins and The Virtue of Selfishness by Ayn Rand.

I woke up like any other day. I sat straight up and looked around‚ as I looked I thought how in the world am I not dead yet? Everyday that we woke up alive to me was a blessed day. To many it was the worst possible thing because they all just wanted to die away from the pain. Our beds were made of concrete‚ we went to bed in pain and woke up in pain and that was my life for about 7 months. You had to get use to everyday things or else you would die away like everyone else. I didn’t want anything

“The Man I Killed” Guilt takes over ones mind and conquers the body because someone thinks constantly about a memory that previously occured. In Tim O’Brien’s‚ “The Man I Killed”‚ he starts with a list of physical features of the man he killed with a grenade in My Khe. He was imagining what the man’s life must have been like.
