Epiphanies‚ Nature and Experience – Rousseau vs. Wordsworth I remember a certain time during my senior year of high school when I was in the process of deciding a major and which colleges to apply to.

the first years of her life with her mother so all what she teaches her will affect her life and their future relationship.
