    Life is not a bed of roses. There are more sorrows than joys in life‚ if someone thinks deeply about it and becomes upset‚ he can never be happy. We cannot ignore the bitter truths of life and can only search some moments of happiness to keep ourselves satisfied. The idea of a happy life differs from man to man. True happiness is just a state of mind. It is no way connected with material glory and eminence. There are people who think that happiness is hidden in wealth. These people are very

Unfortunately‚ that kind of instinctive reactionary attitude

    A Rose for Emily Explication “It was a big‚ squarish frame house that had once been white‚ decorated with cupolas and spires and scrolled balconies in the heavily lightsome style of the seventies‚ set on what had once been our most select street. But garages and cotton gins had encroached and obliterated even the august names of that neighborhood; only Miss Emily’s house was left‚ lifting its stubborn and coquettish decay above the cotton wagons and the gasoline pumps—an eyesore among eyesores.
