    • 1415 Words
    • 6 Pages

     They were not criminals and if they signed the paperwork they were agreeing to be just that. Mother refused to sign as a show of dignity and pride. These attributes are nonmaterial things that the guards could not take away from Lina’s mother. This story is about compassion‚ determination‚ love‚ hope‚ and miracles. I chose compassion because of the shocking ending in which the guard is the one that really helps the prisoners to survive. Even in the face of total hopelessness‚ there are people who still

Since we always base our choices on our highest desire‚ we can easily predict what choices one is going to make. It seems very plausible for casual determinism to be true. With causal
