I found the reading "The Symbolic Language of Dreams"‚ written by Stephens King‚ a very interesting story to write about. King stated a quote in his introduction saying that dreams are a useful way that help people find the nature of their problems; or‚ find answers to their problems in a symbolic way.

Hence‚ dreams and imaginations are critical factors when writing; they sure can resolve

Dreams are like a house of cards. Once one thing jolts it the wrong way it collapses. Throughout everyone’s lifetime they may have many dreams they wish to achieve. Whether they achieve it or not depends on what that person does towards that dream. There are times when the person will achieve their dream‚ but most of the time they are shot down and destroyed.

In Kate Chopin’s story of an hour‚ many questions arose in one’s mind. The controversial plot and twist did much for the reader’s imagination. “Chopin’s story was controversial from the beginning.
