"Poes Final Days",claims that Poe died of taking too much alcohol. The article said that he was very vulnerable and when Mr.Sondgrass saw him. He said that Poe was a complete mess. Before Poe died he kept on saying a name. A family member wanted him to be checked into a hospital because when Poe like to drink and at those moments was very abusive.
The next article "If Onle Poe Had Succeded When He Said Nevermore to Drink". They say that Egdar Allen Poe might have died from intoxication. Then there is a theory that he might have gotten rabies. There was not eveidence of a bite or scratch to have rabies.
In "Poe's Death Is Rewritten as Care of Not Telltale Alcohol". This article says that studies suggest that he dided from rabies not alcohol. Dr.Henry Wilde says he had all the features of rabies. Mr.Jerome said Poe did not die of alcohol. This article states that he died from rabies.
The article "Rabies Death Theory" states that he might have died from rabies. Does not say that his cat could have given him rabies. But at that time they knew how rabies were transmitted but took no action. Also, at that time period animal vaccination was not available.
My theory is he dies from rabies. When someone is drunk they either throw up and don't have energy. Egdar Allen Poe on the other hand would not calm down, then all of a sudden would want to start a fight. Also, a doctor said that his brain swoll up which was a symptom of rabies. Maybe he died of intoxication, but rabies seems logical because of all the evidence.

Sarah Beeghley Final Exam Essay.
The Meaning of Tragedy
The tragedy of Romeo and Juliet stretches beyond the fact that they killed themselves for the love of each other. It stems from personal beliefs of a group of people being judgemental towards one another.
The family dynamics between the Capulet's and the Montague's were the same yet different. Each believed that they were the better than others , and deserved the best. Therefore they taught their children to be discriminatory towards other people that didn't belong to their family name. They treated others as an outcast and even fought with them
For a child to be taught to hate others that aren't exactly like them is unfortunate. It sets them up for having allot of enemies that don't personally know them. It makes them look down on people they've never met or gotten the chance to know.
This hatred caused dishonesty with Romeo and Juliet because they had to sneak around to see each other. Being accepted by ones parents in what you so is important to a young persons purpose in life.
Unfortunately because of the circumstances their parents put them in before they were born, it caused them to lie and hide their feelings for each other . This caused their untimely deaths because of the discrimination put upon them before they had a chance to make their OWN decisions in life. The way a child is taught and raised can make a person a positive or negative influence for the rest of their life.

Justin Murray Final Exam
I will never forget the "Hero's Journey". The "Hero's Journey" is a way to show the beginning of the character and the end result. You can also use it to show the plot of the story. The "Hero's Journey" makes so much sense to me. You could build any type of story with a "Hero's Journey".
The Hero's Journey begins with the seperation, and that is where the main character gets "called" to do something and leaves to pursue it. Then it goes to the Initiation, where the problem of the story usually happens. Then some sort of mentor helps the character "transform" into a better person. Return is last, and in the return stage the character comes back or does something to make the world a better place.
A good example of the Hero's Journey is The Odyssey. In this story Odysseus, goes to war and is trying to get home. On the way home problems arise. Odysseus gets through the problems and eventually comes back home. When he gets home there are people trying to take his kingdom. Odysseus kills them and restores his kingdom.
You can also use the Hero's Journey in short parts of a story. In the Odyssey, Odysseus has to enter the land of the dead to find his way home. So to enter the land of the dead Odysseus sacrifices a black lamb and an ewe. Then he enters the "abyss" That is the Land of the dead/Hell. He sees Teiresias and gets taught about what will happen. Then Odysseus transforms by learning how to get home. With the creation being he doesn't tell his men that they shall die.

Maritza Benitez-Final Exan Essay
Edgar Allan Poe died on October 7,1849. There are two different theries on how people said that he died. One is that people say that Poe was found outside baltimore sallon drunk and died a few days later. The other was that poe had rabbies but they were not sure on how he got them.
My belief from what i have read is that he did die from rabbies. Because like it says in one of the articles. That when someone gets rabbies it is hard to tell the symptoms. I think that he might of had it for a longer time just couldnt tell that he did.
It could have also been that he died from alcohol. I don't see enough facts and evidence on why he would have died from alcohol. But in the articles it didnt say that he liked to drink. It said that Poe would get kind of violent of of wine. So I think that he was a light drinker.
Edgar Allan Poe had all the features of ehcephalitic. Which means inflammation or swelling of the brain. That is what Dr. Henry Wilde said. Whom frequently treats rabbies at chualonkorm Universuty. Poe died in the hospital. But legand has it that he succumbed in the gutter.
So in conclusion i think that there is enough evidence that he died from rabbies. Was seen on October 3,1849 and died four days later on October 7,1849. That is just my thoughts but i really can't say that he died from rabbies or not.

"The Meaning Of Tragedy"
The Tragedy, in most cases is a true story or event. It shows how life realy is. Technicly it shows that life is full of sadness and disapointments. Shows the stages of trouble tha humans go through, to get happiness or to die in the process. They ussualy die.
As Romeo and Juliet's families were fighting with eacho other, in a party where Romeo was suposed to forget Rosaline. Wich he did. He finds Juliet and in an act of complete stupidity he falls in love with Juliet, after five seconds. But she is the only daughter of the greates anemy of his father. Of course Juliet wasn't the esxeption for this. The love for Juliet lead to the death of Mercutio, and then to thier own death. He knew that from a dream, that night lead him to his grave.
I see Troy as a tragedy too. Because everybody dies except the ones who started the war. I would ti love to see Paris die in the fight for the right to Helen, but he was coward and ran away to his brother feet, crying like a baby. But he is alife at the end and the Heros are death. Showing that when the heart loves, the mind doesn't think. Is what happen to Paris and Helen. And then to Aquiles.
The Odyssey has two parts, a comedy and a tragedy.
The Tragedy begins thanks to his man. That never listen to his orders. Thanks to their desired od leading themselfs, they die. Making Odysseus to stay with Calypso for many years. When he gets back to Ithaca there was alot of trouble. The maids became traitors. He gets there and killed them with the suitors, that try to marry Penelope. When he is back, she didin't hugh and kissed him like he spect her. But she is a smart women who has been trough alot and needs time.
The Tragedy means, sadness, trouble. The characters would survive the journey or die. They ussualy die. Leaving you with no hope.
Making you feel that there is no purpose of living.
The Tragedy is present in real life, in every action we have to choose between "happily ever after", and "make the grave a home".

Crystal Berumen - Final Exam Essay
EDGAR ALLEN POE
(THE MEANING OF TRAGEDY)
People have different stories on how Edgar Alen Poe died... That he was an alcoholic and that he had rabies. "The brief period when he was calm and awake, Poe refused alcohol and could drink water only with great difficulty." People thought he was an alcoholic because they found him on the floor under the stairs of a bar,or in a gutter on Baltimore. On top of that they said that his cat had scrached him or bit him, but they had no proof of that.
" Rabies victims frequently exhibit hydrophobia (fear of water) because it is painful to swallow. There is no evidence that a rabid animal had bitten poe. About one one fourth of rabies victims reportedly cannot remember being bitten by the animal."
"After the infection it can take up to a year for the symptoms to appear".
" His face was pale and drenched in sweat". A lot of people say that he was an alcoholic and then they say that he has rabies. I think Edgar Allen Poe died of rabies, the reason i say he died of rabies is because in the stories that i read about his death say more things about him dying from rabies more then he supposedly died of alcoholism.They say when you get the infection you die a couple of days after the infection has shown the symptoms. Edgar died four days later after he was hospitalized. I believe that Edgar Allan Poe had rabies .
Zack Dehnhardt- How Did Poe Die?
I believe that Poe died from rabies.
First of all, he had violent reactions to even the smallest sip of wine. how could he have managed to poison himself if this were true?
secondly, many of the symptoms in the articles highly suggest rabies. there's really no way it could be alcohol.
third, if he had gotten alcohol poisoning, he would have died a lot faster than he did.
fourth, he couldn't have had alcohol poisoning anyways. he had hydrophobia, so even drinking water was an ordeal for him.

Robert Soberano Final exam essay
The Hero's journey is basically a outline to every pieces of literature. It contains 3 stages, the Separation, which is the start of the journey. The initiation which is practically the journey it self. Last is the return when the hero (who can be anyone) returns and makes his community better.In these stages comes events each stage has three events excluding the return which only has one. In the separation there are the calling, the reason the hero leaves , the threshold, which is if he stays or goes, the descent, which is when the journey begins. In the initiation the events are the abyss, which is the hero is going into the unknown, the mentor, the hero finds a teacher, and the transformation, which is when the hero preforms a solo heroic duty. Last is the stage in the return. That is the creation, this is just basically the hero creating a better community. will be applying all of these stages into the timeless journey of the Odyssey
In the begging of this journey the main character Odysseus is called to war just as soon as his son is born, this is the calling. Although he is leaving his kingdom of Ithaca and his family he decides to fight for the king of Greece in the Trojan war , during this time he steps thorough the threshold and decides to fight. He then sets sail to Troy to fight in the war where he then enters the descent starting his journey.
Seven years into the war his brilliant brain wins the war. After the war he then sets sail to his home Ithaca. He then is thrown into the abyss where he is lost in the sea due to the God Poseidon.
He then sails in the sea aimlessly. Through out this journey he has four mentor. Athena, Aeolus, Circe and Teresias. They all give him information that will help him get home, but he then withholds information from his men to get home. This then gets 6 men killed in the fight of Scylla and Charybdis. This act counts as a solo heroic act then creating the transformation.

Afterwards he goes to his house only to find that his kingdom is over ran by suitors trying to court his wife and take his kingdom for his son.

Bryan Galvan Final Exam:How did poe Die?
There are many storys about Poes death. They say he died of alchohol and rabies. I don't think he died of any of those. My theory is that he died of a plague. He was gone during september and was in richmand.
When he came back he had a trunk with cloths, books, and manuscripts. A week later on October 3, 1849 he was seen in a saloon. They say he was drunk and to selfish to worry about the rain and wind. There was no evidence of a bite or scratch mark. A glass of wine could make him very ill for days.
He was found outside the saloon in an alchoholic stupor. When he died his cat was not infected from rabies. His cat died of starvation. When he was found he was wearing someones elses clothes. He looked very ill by then.
After the day at the saloon it was hard for him to drink water. Maybe he had a soar thoat. They described hi as E.P. "Edger Poe". He was half- conscious when he reached the hospital. He did not have rabies.
He had to be carried to the cart to get him to the hospital. On the forth day he was very confused. He kept on repeating a name then got quiet and died. This is why I think Edger Allen Poe had a plague.

Jerry Stark--Final Exam essay
I think that Edgar allen Poe died of rabies 3 out of 4 stories explans the death. they also said that the rabbies was from a scratch or a cut. The other story said that he was sick and he was in the hospitalwaiting to die. Letting visitos come when he usually never did. One author said that they seen him sleeping outside a Baltimore saloon in a alcoholic supportor. Another Auther says that their was a theory that he had rabbies but people that have it remember when they get bit or scratch he said that he was not bit or scratched. Some people say that his cat was the carrier but if the cat does have it would'nt people know that the cat has rabies.
ther is no real evidence of how he really died all we know is that he could of been sick or have the rabies the whole time he was on the trip. The last author said that he did not die drunk in a gunner in Baltimore. knowing all these stories i came to conclusion that he probly got rabbies when he was on the boat and did'nt know he had it. It takes a year to realise he has it.

michael martinez final exam essay
im almost positive that po died of rabies just look at the facts they all point to rabies. All articles at least mention rabies. i know he didnt die of alcohol poisoning but he didnt. people say he was rash, baligerant, etc. but think about it, rabies makes you a very angry person.
2 out of 4 say he died of raibies. raibies is usually caused by the bite, scratch , or wound from an infected animal. some say he died in a hospital bed from unkown causes. he was in a hospital for the last days of his life but he was dying from raibies. when he was in the hospital he wouldnt let any one come in. and that is my final in a nutshell
Marie Poasa Final Exam Essay
Romeo and Juliet stretches beyond the fact that they kill themselves for the love of eachother. it stems from personal beliefs of a group of people being judgemental towards one another. The Family dynamics between the Capulets and the Montagues were the same yet different. Each believed that they were better than others, and deserved the best. Therefore they taught their children descriminatory towards othere people that did'nt belong to their family name. They treated others as an outcast and even taught with them. For a child to be taught to hate othere that aren't exactly like then is unfortunate. It sets them up for having a lot of enemies that don't personaly know them. It makes them look down on people that they haven't met or gotten to know them.
Michael Johnson Final Exam Essay
The Meaning of Tragedy In Romeo & Juliet to me at the end was the biggest tragedy because all Juliet wanted was to be with Romeo but there love could never be only because there families were in a feud with each other. Another tragedy was when Romeo killed Tybalt because Tybalt killed Mercutio. I thought that it was Romeo's fault that Mercutio was killed because Mercutio and Tybalt were playing and Romeo took all serious.
Another tragedy was when Romeo was banned from Verona. Juliet was just torn apart and when her father said "Marry Paris or you will be disowned" i felt that she had no say in who she had to marry because everyone could see that she was head over heels in love with Romeo. If romeo was a Capulet then he and Juliet could be together and if Juliet was a mercutio then her and romeo could be together.
Love dying is a tragedy. Juliet felt that if she could not be with the one she loved then she would kill herself. When she said " If he be taken then my bed is my grave" i think she was really in love with him and if she was that in love with him then her parents should of respected her decision to be with him. Romeo's love for juliet was well known from the first time he laid eyes on her but he also was to wed. Rosaline but he did not want her he wanted juliet.
Romeo and juliets love will live on even after death. When romeo saw that juliet was "dead" and then he poisoned himself because he could not have her. I thought that ; that was true love. When juliet awoke and saw Romeo lifeless she tried to take the poison and nothing happened then she tried to kiss him and nothing happened then she picked up his dagger and stabbed herself taking her own life. As both of them lie there lifeless in each others arms you knew that they were truly deeply in love because they were willing to die for each other.
When there family approach there dead children they ask the friar all that happened and the friar explains to them that romeo & juliet were Married and the king of Capulet did not believe them then he saw that romeo had a letter to his father and it comfirmed everything that the Friar was saying, In the end the Capulets and the Montagues settle there differences and stop Fueding

In this essay i will be talking about "The Hero's Journey". The Hero's Journey is when the protagonist of the story of film leave his home and journey. In the journey that he will do the protagonist will change and when he comes back home he or she would change the society or his or her home. One of the two literature I'll talk about is The Odyssey. The other literature is Romeo and Juliet.
The Odyssey's Hero's Journey I will be talking about is The Land of the Dead. It is also called "A Journey within a Journey". The Hero's Journey can be found in The Land of the Dead because all the parts of the Hero's Journey us present in this chapter of the literature. An example of the Hero's Journey being present is when Odysseus went to The Land of the Dead to find Teiresias.
The other literature that i will be talking about is Romeo and Juliet. The Hero's Journey is also present in this literature. The Hero's Journey developed in this literature when Romeo went tot the Capulets party. It started when Romeo and Juliet met at the party. The Hero's Journey ended when Romeo and Juliet died together at the end.
The Hero's Journey were present at both literatures. Every literature have the Hero's Journey in them. The reason I talked about the Odyssey and Romeo and Juliet is that the Hero's Journey in these two literature can be easily found. Also that these two literatures have many pages but you can find the Hero's Journey in them easily.
Iesha Greer Final Exam Essay
In the play Romeo and Juliet two lovers from different families fall in love. This causes a big tragedy bad for them good for the families.
Romeo is a Montague, Juliet is a Capulet their families hate each other. One night Romeo's friends convince him to go to a Capulet party, when he gets there he spots Juliet and it was like love at first sight. They talk and they really like each other but they know they could never get married. They do it anyways. Romeo and Juliet go to the Friar and he marries the two together, but nobody knows except the three of them.
In Verona where the story takes place the Prince clearly states that if he catches anyone fighting that they will be killed. Juliet's cousin and Romeo's friend were playing around and Tybalt (Juliet's cousin) accidentally kills Mercutio (Romeo's friend) but he gets away with it, but Romeo doesn't let him get away with it. Romeo went and found Tybalt and fought him till he killed him but that was a big mistake. The prince finds out about what happened, but instead of killing Romeo he just banishes him from Verona, because of what Tybalt did to Mercutio. When he was banished he was not only banished from Verona he was banished from his family and his wife...
When Romeo gets banished Juliet is pretty much forced to marry Paris as soon as possible, (a fellow Capulet) but she really doesn't want to marry him. She goes to the Friar and asks him for help as to what to do, he has a plan. His plan is for Juliet to drink a potion to make her look like she's dead so when she wakes up the next morning instead of her having a wedding she will have a funeral. Back in these days they didn't bury people under the ground they put them in an underground dungeon. So he gives her the potion and the plan is for her to drink it and look dead and get put into the underground dungeon and after the funeral Romeo will come and save her. Before this the Friar sent a letter to Romeo in Montua telling him about the plan, but it never gets there.
The next morning Romeo heared that Juliet was dead and that her family was putting together a funeral for her. Being the loyal husband he is, he hops on a horse buys some poison and gets on his way back to Verona. When he gets there he goes to the dungeon he sees her and he drinks the poison and he kills himself. Moments later Juliet wakes up from her deadly sleep she sees that Romeo killed himself thinking that she was really dead, she trys to kiss him and get the poison off his lips so she could die too, but it doesn't work so she goes to plan b she takes out his knife and she stabs herself and she died right next to her husband.
In the denouement Romeo and Juliet are dead and the families realize their fighting effects a lot of people including their children. The tragedy in this story brought the families together they stopped fighting but their fighting killed Romeo and Juliet. It was bad for Romeo and Juliet, but good for the families.

The Odyssey Hero's Journey
I am going to use the Hero's Journey to explain the Odyssey. The Calling in the Odyssey is to go home. Going home is really important to them. That is all they want to do. The Threshhold is also used in the Odyssey.
The Threshhold is a tough decision that the characters have to make. Odysseus has to make a lot of decisions throught the story. Tha Descent is when they leave the war. They just won the war in the beginning of the story. That is when they are going to go home.
The Abyss is the unknown. Odysseus and his men are in the Abyss a lot. They get pulled off course a lot so they go towards unknown areas. The Mentor is Odysseus. He has to tell his men what not to do. They don't listen all the time.
The transformation is when Odysseus changes. Odysseus didn't change a lot. He was smart all through the story. The Creation was used in the story. He got rid of all the men at his house. That made his wife happy.
Zack Dehnhardt- Final Exam Essay
The Odyssey is a perfect example of the Hero's Journey because Odysseus completes the entire Hero's Journey from the time he leaves Troy to the time he slays the suitors and reclaims his kingdom. In this essay, I will go through each event and theme of the Hero's Journey, and explain what Odysseus did in each one.
The Threshold: Poseidon cast Odysseus' men into the sea, and they eventually washed up on the isle of the Lotus Eaters. When three of Odysseus' men ate the petals of the Lotus, they forgot all about their homes, and never wanted to leave. However, Odysseus and some of his other men forced the men back into the boat, and tied them to the floor so that they didn't try to jump out and swim back until the Lotus' effects wore off. The Threshold best represents this part of the Hero's Journey because now Odysseus has reached the point where there is no turning back.
The Descent: By the time Odysseus and his men made it to The Descent stage of the Hero's Journey, they were at the isle of the Laestrygonians. When the men came onshore, the vicious Laestrygonians killed and ate many of Odysseus' men before they fled to the seas once more. They continued sailing, completely usure of where they will land next. This part is best illustrated by The Descent because Odysseus and his men are descending into the Abyss right away.
The Separation
The Calling: Odysseus' calling began when he was getting ready to leave Troy. He and his men were heading to Ithaca, and stopped off at another kingdom. Once there, they killed everyone in that kingdom. Because of this, Poseidon cast them out to sea. The Calling best represents this phase of Odysseus' journey because it is the very first part of the journey.The Threshold: Poseidon cast Odysseus' men into the sea, and they eventually washed up on the isle of the Lotus Eaters. When three of Odysseus' men ate the petals of the Lotus, they forgot all about their homes, and never wanted to leave. However, Odysseus and some of his other men forced the men back into the boat, and tied them to the floor so that they didn't try to jump out and swim back until the Lotus' effects wore off. The Threshold best represents this part of the Hero's Journey because now Odysseus has reached the point where there is no turning back.
The Descent: By the time Odysseus and his men made it to The Descent stage of the Hero's Journey, they were at the isle of the Laestrygonians. When the men came onshore, the vicious Laestrygonians killed and ate many of Odysseus' men before they fled to the seas once more. They continued sailing, completely usure of where they will land next. This part is best illustrated by The Descent because Odysseus and his men are descending into the Abyss right away.
The Initiation
The Abyss: Odysseus and his men come upon the isle of the Cyclopes. There, they meet a cyclops called Polyphemus, who traps them in his cave, and eats two of Odysseus' men. Odysseus drugs him with wine, and then stabs Polyphemus in the eye with a sharpened log heated in a campfire. Polyphemus is blinded, and he makes his way to the door to the cave, and opens it. When Odysseus and his men try to get out, Poly. blocks them. So Odysseus ties his men underneath Polyphemus' sheep, and they make it out. When they escape, Polyphemus cries out to his father, Poseidon, to avenge him. When they set out again Poseidon sends the ship away, towards the isle of the Witch Circe. The Abyss best represents this part of the Hero's Journey because they are now in completely unknown lands.
The Mentor: Odysseus and his men come upon the isle of the witch Circe, and she turns Odysseus' men into pigs. Odysseus eats some garlic, and then confronts her. When Circe tries to turn Odysseus into a pig, it doesn't work because of the garlic. Then Circe turns all of the pigs back into men, and tells Odysseus to go to the Land of the Dead to talk to the blind prophet Tereisius. The Mentor best suits this part because Circe guides Odysseus into the next part of his Journey.
The Transformation: Tereisius tells Odysseus that they will come upon the cattle of the sun god Helios. If they slay the cattle, they will all be killed except for Odysseus. If they don't they will all survive and get back to Ithaca. When they make it to the land of Helios, Odysseus' men betray him and kill all of the cattle. After they leave the island, Helios destroys their ship, and only Odysseus survives. He washes up on the isle of Calpsyo, and the enchantress keeps him there for twenty years. This part of the Journey is best called the Transformation because it's the longest part of the HJ and Odysseus was in it for 20 years.
The Return
The Creation: Odysseus arrives at Ithaca to find his house overrun by suitors intent on marrying Penelope, his wife. Odysseus sneaks in disguised as a beggar, and then traps all of the suitors and kills them with the aid of his son, Telemachus, the cowherd and the swineherd. This section is best called the Return because it is the last part of the Hero's Journey.

Signs You Have A Lousy English Teacher by Zack Dehnhardt (a.k.a. Bezerika14)
- Thinks Shakespeare is a weapon.
- Reads books so far below your level, it's almost insulting.
- Yells at you for numbering your journals with numbers such as "eleventy-six" and "thirty-twelve".
- Implements disciplinary tools such as "time-outs", "good citizenship stars" and "warm fuzzies". Ugh...
- Dresses like the Grim Reaper come Finals Week.
- Applauds a student for correctly spelling "demonstrate" and then proceeds to bite your head off for misspelling "pneumonaultramicroscopicsilicovocaniconeosis". And odds are, I still spelled it wrong.
- Integrates certain mechanics of literature (maybe something about, oh, I don't know, maybe... heroes?) into not only every section of the curriculum, but also into every waking moment of his life. (I mean, really, can't you think of something else?)
- Forces you to write retarded journals about things like "Signs You Have A Lousy English Teacher" just to see how many times you can morally insult him. I mean, come on, there isn't a single one there!
Oh, and I made a bet with someone that if anyone reads this, my friend owes me fifty bucks. And since you are obviously reading this, John is now the poorest guy in school.

As the great Friedrich Wilhelm once said "...from generation to generation the traditions finally becomes holy and inspires awe." In other words tradition becomes more respected as it passes from each generation. It also says that everybody in each generation is inspired by the tradition that he or she performs in one way or another. Making tradition a never ending source of sublimity to anyone who respects that tradition. So as you can tradition is the base of many actions in each and every generation

Friendship is when one is attached to another by affection and esteem. Also friendship is like me and my friend. Who's been friends since 1st grade and never let things com between us. And like in the Crane to when, Songsam let Tokchae go. Because of how long the two have been friends and how friendship come over duty. ALso how the word in slang is used. Like that's my bot or that's my "patna"! This are things what friendships means and are.

Loyalty with the meaning of the quality or state or an insurance of being loyal from the dictionary. An example of being loyal in the story Cranes was when he let his friend go because he wanted to be loyal. An example from the book The Afterlife was when he was loyal to Crystal. He promised her that he was going to go back and see her. So he went to a Raiders game and he left early from the gamejust to go see her. In spanish loyalty you spell it lealtad. Which as in english has th same meaning. With loyalty it can give you lots of problems, if you are trapped between friends and you don't know who to stay true to. But staying loyal to friends and family is very important. So that you can grow honesty, love, and friendship to your relationship.
Justin Murray Perseverance/Steadfast
"All this stuff seems to be hitting me hard all at once, But I got to keep my head up." This is a slang way of using the word perseverance or steadfast. The definition of perseverance is the action or condition or an instance of perserving. The definition of steadfast is being firm in belief, determination, or adherence. The movie Whale Rider gibes us a great example of these words. The girl, Pai contunues to learn ancient ways even though her grandpa forbids it. Pai also continues to strive for a better relationship with her grandpa. The whole time not many people support her to accomplish the goals she has set. Thus making this act of perseverance and steadfastness amazing. I have a real-life example of these words also. It is not as good as the other one though. When I took Algebra 1 and 2 in middle school, I needed perseverance and steadfastness to work hard at passing the finals and doing the homework that I had every night. These two words "steadfast" and "perseverance" are very powerful words, so use them well.

I was thankful enough to experiance friendship and the true meaning of a friend. They say friendship is the act of being a friend, someone attatched to another by affection, I call that a homie.

In After Life Chuy makes a promise to Crystal. Chuy also loved his friends but he never told them. I would never keep stuff away from friends because they should know how you feel. Love is a strong positive emotion of regard and affection, everyone needs a lot of love. Love has many meanings in English, from something that gives a little pleasure to something one would die for. It can describe an intense feeling of affection, an emotion or an emotional state. In Samoa it means "ALOFA." I Alofa everyone.

The word i am describing is perseverance. the definition of perseverance is the action or condition or an instance or persevering .an example is from the movie Whale Rider when paikea didn't listen to her grandfather and never gave up trying to learn everything that the boys were learning in the school. my life experience is when i was playing a video game i lost to the boss over twenty times so one day i decided to race and gain a lot of money from other people to upgrade my car all the way. when i finished upgrading my car i raced the boss again and i won. i won because i never gave up trying to to upgrade my car to beat him. i persevered top beat the boss in the video game the Spanish word for perseverance is perseverance. the Spanish word is spelled the same way as the English version but is pronounced differently than the English version.

Friendshipe's dictionary definition is one attached to another by affection or esteem. An example from the book "Cranes" is when Songsam let Tokchae, his bestfriend free. There's a value of frienship here beacuse when Tokchae got caught and Songsam was ordered to take Tokchae to the capital. If Songsam didn't remember what he and Tokchae did when they were kids, he would have never let Tokchae go. It's a good thing to hold on to your friends because sometimes they will help you out when your in need. From my personal experience an example would be when my friends in the Philippines were never bothered that I'm a kid that came from the U.S.. Even though I came back from the U.S. they still treated me the same before we go to the U.S. A slang equivalent for friendship can be the word "patna".
Michael Johnson --Values
IN the book ''The Afterlife'' the Author to me wrote about Love. In the book Chuy's love for Crystal shows alot even though he knows she has many boyfriends. Ihave alot of love for my friends they are always there for me. Another saying or words for love is ''High School Sweethearts''

My parents helping me through hard times even though they're having hard times too is example of "value" in my family.

Family in Tongan is aiga.

Phillip Enright's seperation starts when his mother thinks the island of curcao. So she decides it is time to go. The calling is when his mother tells him that they are going to America because the island is too dangerous to live on. The threshold is when Phillip does not know if he should stay or if he should go. The descent is when Phillip leaves the island with his mother.
Phillip's initiation is when hefinds his mentor enters the abyss and undergoes transformation. the abyss is the uknown to Phillip the onkown is the cay. The mentor is the person who helps the character throughout the hero's journey to Phillip that was Timothy of charrlote. The transformation is when Timothey dies and Phillip is now independant on his own.

Hero's Journey
Chuck Nolan
My page is about Chuck Nolan's Hero's Joureney. Chuck Nolan di complete his Hreo's Journey, he went through all the stages. Chuck Nola's situation is that his plane crashed and he wound up on a(n) island. There he had to survive on his own with no connection to civilization, he was stuck on this island.
Chuck Nolan's separation was from his family and friends he was always away on business but this time he had to deliver all these packages on a plane. Chuck's Calling was to deliver the packages for his job because he worked for UPS and if he didn't he would probably lose his job. Chuck's Threshold was when him and his wife arrived at the airport, you could tell that he di not want to go he wanted to stay and be with his family and friends, but his job called him off. His Descent was when he got on the plane and the plane crashed and he was floating and landed on an island, he didn't kow where he was at or how he got there. My opinion on this is that he should of stayed at home wiht his family and friends i mean it was Christmas.
Chuck's Initiation/Mentor was i think wilson, because without Wilson he wouldn't have anyone to talk to, he would go insane. The Unknown to Chuck was why & How he got on the island, he had found a cave that he slept in every night he didn't knoe what could have been in that cave but he still survived in there for four years. His Transformation was when years passed and he got the hang of living on an island he made stuff out of anything he could find just so he can have things to help him around the island. My opinion on this is that although he is getting the hang of being on the island he still should be trying to find ways to get off the island.
His Return was not what he expected although he was on civilization all he could think about was the island andhow he survived on it. Since he has been home he has and still uses his experience & knowledge to try and create a better utopian Society. He is alot more nice to people and does not take his life and Employees for granted anymore.
What i talked about was Chuck Nolan's Hero's Journey he survived staying on an island for four years and he is still alive to tell about it. Yes i do think he completed a Hero's Journey because he went through all the steps of a Hero's Journey.

Genesis Maria De Jesus Alvarez-Cortez "uh son!!!!"
"Hero's Journey" has three steps which are seperation, intation, & return. This "Hero's Journey" paper is on this boy named Phillip Engright who left the island he was staying on & his father to go with his mother to America. In my opinion he did complete his "Hero's Journey".
Phillip's seperation was when he had to leave his father & friends . His calling was when his mother wanted to leave the island so they could be in a safer place far from WW2 . His treshold was that he didint have a choice since his parents already made the plans for him & his mother to leve to the Americas. In my opion his 2nd sepration was harder then the first. for In the first sepration it was just from his father & friends but he knew he would see them agian yet in the second he was seperated from his mother and didnt know if he would ever see her or anybody else again.
Phillip's intation is trying to survive blind.with an old man(Timonthy) & the chefs cat (stewcat). He at first gave us the readers the feeling that he wanted to give up and was just acting like a little child selffish and ungrateful of surving the torpedo. His abyss was not knowing where he was at being blind and barely having any survival skills. His mentor was Timonthy,he taught Phillip some survival skills and how to be independent. His transformation was Timonthy died and he was left alone with only stewcat. In my opinion His Ination where good beacuse he still did everything to survive.
Phillps return was when he was rescued by some type of coast guard. He had surgery on his eyes and was able to see again. He was reaquinted with his family and friends. Yet he didnt hang out much with his old friends. My opinon is that phillip matured and grew through his experience.
Phillip In my opion completted his "Hero's Journey". He was at firts seperated from his father and friends and then from everyone else he knew. He did all he could to surive and be reaquinted with his family & friends. I dont know if Ill every be able to survive a "Hero's journey" as strong as this on. I guess I'll only know when it happens to me.

The hero's journey is based on three stages the seperation, the initiation, and the return. The seperation has three different events which are the calling, the threshold, and the descent. The initiation contains three events as well. The abyss, the mentor, and the transformation. The return the last stage of the heros journey only contains one event, which is the creation. My eassy is going to be about Phillip Enright and how he fits into the hero's journey. Which in my opinion Phillip is a great example to explain the hero's journey.
In the seperation Phillip's calling is the war. It is the world war 2 takes place in Willenstad on February 1942. The threshold that Phillip has to go through is mom and dad's discussion of leaving the island the mom wants to go because she is scared of the war. Phillips descent was the book sailing away to sea. In my opinion all of those are good examples to let the reader understand the hero's journey better.
In the initiation which as well has three events. The first event is the abyss, which is also known as the unknown. In this case it is the cay the unknown island. The mentor is Timothy which helps Phillips to be independent and teaches him teachnics to survival. The transformation which is the change is Timothy slapping Phillip and making Phillips attitude change towards him.Those all match up to thier topics that fit into the hero's journey.
The return only has one event which is the creation. In this event and stage Phillip gets saved by the lifegaurd from the army. But in between the hurican Timothy doesnt make it and dies. After Phillip gets rescued he meets up with his parents. Then his parents take him back to the U.S. and while he is over there he gets opperated so he can see again because he was blind.
In my paper I talked about Phillip and his journey to the cay and how all the events that happened match up to the hero's journey. He had something that fit in all the events from the calling, to the abyss, to the creation he had everything. Thats how a heros journey should be with a charecters Seperation, to his or her initiation, and to the return. Thats how a hero's journey should work.

My paper is on the Hero's Journey of Phillip Enright, a boy from the book "The Cay" by Theodore Taylor. Phillip goes from living on a Dutch island with his family, to being stranded on a deserted island, struck blind, and with only an old black man and a cat for company. But even against all odds (not to mention a massive hurricane), he triumphs and is rescued, but at the cost of a life.
The Calling began for Phillip when he was still in Willemstad. He was only a child, playing with his friend Henrik Van Boven. But he was soon thrust into the Threshold when his parents started arranging for him to leave with his mother on a boat bound for America, because his mother has a distinct fear of flying. But the waters are not safe either, and after a few days on the open sea, the ship Phillip and his mother were travelling on was sunk by a German u-boat, a type of submarine. This was the turning point that got him stuck into the Descent, headed for nowhere, stranded on a raft.
He was struck in the head by falling timber when the boat was wrecked, causing him to go completely blind. This made him enter the Abyss phase of our Hero's Journey. It was here that he met an old black man named Timothy, and the chef of the boat's cat, aptly named Stew Cat. When they finally washed up on a cay, with Timothy acting as the now-blind Phillip's eyes and ears. Timothy then taught Phillip quite a number of survival techniques, and essentially became Phillip's Mentor on the lonely island. Eventually, a huge hurricane swept over the cay, and Timothy died, shielding Phillip from the brunt of the storm with his massive body. This moment in the Hero's Journey is best known as the Transformation.
Phillip was left alone on the island, save Stew Cat. He had to forage for food to feed himself and his companion, and do it while blind, thus bringing up a multitude of questions. How will he fish? How will he hunt? How will he survive? Luckily, he had pretty much memorized the small cay, and he was able to survive long enough to wait for the Creation to come rolling along, and a rescue boat with it.

This paper is about the Hero's Journey. I chose to write about Phillip Enright. I feel that Phillip completed the Hero's Journey by going through what he did.
In Phillip's separation he leaves the island. It starts with the calling and the war is the calling. Then conversations between mom and dad become the threshold. Finally, ending with the descent, which is them leaving. I feel this part is very important to me because it gives us a familiarity with Phillip and his surroundings.
The initiation is where Phillip goes from where he was to where he becomes. The first sage, abyss, is where he is on a raft in the Caribbean ocean, becomes blind, and lands on an unknown island. The mentor part is where Timothy teaches him by slapping Phillip for being rude, preparing Phillip for the storm, and by protecting Phillip from the storm. After mentor comes transformation, where Phillip's attitude changed after he got slapped, Phillip helped Timothy through his illness, and Timothy's death impacted Phillip.
The return is where the hero (Phillip) comes back and uses what he learned to make the world a better place. Phillip gets rescued on a boat. He goes through surgery and gets his eyesight back. He also hangs out with the black people more because to him the color doesn't matter. My opinion about the return is that it is very important to see how Phillip has changed and how much more mature he is.
I talked about Phillip Enright and I talked about his Hero Journey or what I like to call his stages to (in the long run) becoming a better person. I feel he completed the Hero's Journey. The book was really good because it showed a perfect picture on the Hero's Journey and was a great read.

In everybody's life going through the Hero's Journey is inevitable. Even in stories and movies and in songs you can pick out at least one or two elements in the Hero's Journey. In this paper I will be taking you through the Hero's Journey of a character in a movie named "Cast Away". That character will be Chuck Noland, a Federal Express worker that puts being on time and delivering his packages as one of his top priorities. Based on the events that Chuck overcomes throughout his story I think that he successfully completes the Hero's Journey. After reading this paper hopefully you will feel the same way to.
The first stage that Chuck goes through is separation. This starts when his job requires him to leave home once again, this creates the event of the calling. Leaving behind his friends, family and his girlfriend he decides to board a plane. At that point Chuck completes the even known as the threshold. From there the plane Chuck is in flies above a part of the Pacific Ocean. During this time the plane flies through what seems to be like a storm. There the storm forces the plane to crash in to the dark ocean. That is when Chuck is forced into the event of the descent.
After completing the events of the separations Chuck begins to experience the initiation stage of the Hero's Journey. The first even is the abyss. In the story I believe that Chuck goes through two events of the abyss. The first that Chuck is thrown into is when the plane Chuck is in crashes into the deep dark Pacific Ocean. In that ocean Chuck has no inkling what so ever of where in the Pacific Ocean he is. The second event is when he drifts upon an island that appears to be unpopulated. There stranded on a lonesome island makes it hard for Chuck to obtain a true mentor. I believe that within creating his volleyball friend, Wilson, gives Chuck a purpose to learn and gain more and more experience to survive on that island. Although a volleyball has no sense of experience or knowledge what so ever I say that Wilson poses as some what of a mentor because he keeps Chuck a little on the sane side and sort of gives Chuck some one to care for on the island. Chuck begins the transformation when Chuck is able to create fire and cooks with ease. In the movie the part that really shows how Chuck transforms is after he knocks him self out trying to get rid of that pain causing tooth. After that scene it fast forwards time four years and shows Chuck killing a fish with only a spear from a distance.
In the story it does quite a number on the return. Although during the return Wilson is lost in the friendship killing ocean and drifts away from Chuck. Chuck is rescued one day by a passing cargo ship. As soon as he returns home to find that his girlfriend, Kelly, moved on and married while Chuck was on the island. Afterwards I believe that the creation takes place when he goes to his old girlfriends house and returns the pocket watch that she gave him before he left to board the plane. From there he goes to talk to his friend and Chuck tells him what it was like to be on that island. Chuck also told him about the time when he almost hung himself. As he was tell the story he told his friend that he realized that after all the drama in life passes over everybody still has a life to live. With that statement I think that is where Chuck creates a better utopia for society. Although he only told his friend I still believe that that is the creation. After that event Chuck completes the Hero's Journey.
Hopefully by now you figured out that this whole paper was about the protagonist of "Cast Away", Chuck Noland, and all the trials that he went through that create the Hero's Journey in that movie. Now I think that you agree that in the story of "Cast Away" that the story meet all the criteria of each and ever event of the Hero's Journey. I strongly believe that Chuck Noland completed the Hero's Journey with flying colors. Although the event of the mentor was a little hard to believe I hope you see why I think that Chuck completed the Hero's Journey.
The first stage that Chuck goes through is separation. This starts when his job requires him to leave home once again, this creates the event of the calling. Leaving behind his friends, family and his girlfriend he decides to board a plane. At that point Chuck completes the even known as the threshold. From there the plane Chuck is in flies above a part of the Pacific Ocean. During this time the plane flies through what seems to be like a storm. There the storm forces the plane to crash in to the dark ocean. That is when Chuck is forced into the event of the descent.

My paper is about the Hero's journey of Phillipe Enright. On how he has to struggle fro life and death. and of dealing with handicaps in his epic tale the Cay. I think it's a great story on how to survive on a island, and with someone you hardly know. And you both have to put your differences aside so both can try to stay alive long enough to be found.
The separation of this story when Phillipe is made to leave the island because of the war. His mother and father want him not to be in harms way.Then there comes the calling when he is forced to actually go. So he and his mother are sent off on a ship because of his mother fear of flying. This was the threshold of the story. Then comes into play is the descent when Phillipe and his mom on the boat in the middle of Caribbean Sea. this sums up separation
The initiation of the cay and of Phillipe begins like this. With the abyss when Phillipe and his mom get blowing up on the boat they're on because of the war going on. And when blowing up he get hit in the head real hard with and object from the boat which then later in the story makes him blind. And ends up getting saved from boat wreck by an old black man named Timothy. Next they land on an island(Cay) and are stranded. As on the island Phillipe gets mentored by Tim how teaches him how to survive. And as he doing so he transforms(Transformation). When he gets slapped by Tim who tells him, he needs to work for in order for both of them to live. He needs to work even if his blind his hands are not.This The initiations summed up.
Next is how the returns come into play by a hurricane coming and Phillipe getting taught by Tim how to survive it. And when it comes Tim gives his life to save Phillipe and dies in the process. Leaving Phillipe on the cay alone and with the knowledge of how to survive on a cay alone.and within this time the creation comes when he is saved and,then brought back to his family and, got his blindness cured. But he gets it now its not looks that make a person its whats inside and he will all ways Carry thats through his life and hopefully everyone.
The conclusion of the story is on how Phillipe had to go through something. To change his view and prospective on others he knows nothing of but their skin color. And taking things for granted like his eye site which learned was big to have an honer to have and privilege. So he learned and I learned a lot about to not judge before you know and be great full for what you got. This how things got changed for him and me in his tale of the cay.

This paper is about a young person who went through the hero's journey. This person was Phillip. He is white,skinny, and sometimes he can be a little immature. This character did finish the hero's journey because he matured a lot and in the end he kept everything he learned into his brain. He learned how to do stuff on his own like catch a "langosta" while blind.
The separation for Phillip wasn't really his choice. He was forced of leaving the place he loved because of the war. Phillip had no choice his parents just demanded him to go, this being the threshole. At last it was time to leave with his mom on the boat. He waved goodbye to everyone he loved. He was now into the the open water in a boat with other people.
Next is the innovation this is where Phillip finds his mentor after the boat he was sailing on was torpedoed down. Phillip and his mom were now separated. Phillip Didn't really have to look for his mentor his mentor came to him. The mentors name was Timothy A big Black man with a weird accent and his cat named Stew Cat. After their off the raft and onto the island Phillip is blind and he goes through a hard time getting used to everything. Phillip is transformed when Timothy slapped him, thus changing Phillips attitude. Later on the the book Timothy becomes sick and Phillip helped him out for the next few days while he got better. Then a big storm comes and Timothy protects Phillip from it, thus killing Timothy.
Phillips Return was very lucky. He was rescued by soldiers. If it was for the fire and the seaweed he used to make the signal fire he wouldn't have been rescued. All thanks to Timothy he was able to survive and hunt for his own food and make a signal fire. Phillip made another hut on his own as well.
In this paper I talked about The mentor and how he helped Phillip survive, make stuff, work on his own, keep track of the days, and some other stuff too. I also talked about each stage Phillip went through. This character did finish the hero's journey because he finished every step of the hero's journey.

Hero's Journey Essay
In this paper we would talk about the Hero's Journey of Phillip. Who ia the main character of the book "The Cay". I think he completed the Hero's Journeyand he went through all the stages, exept the first 3.
The separrtion wasn't his decition, he was pushed to ti . He didn;t get de callin either. I don't think a 12 year old boy would like to stay in a Cay, blind with someone he doesn't know . The threshhold that's something he didn't get , but I think anyone would stay. The Descent in my opinion started in moment he got in the litle boat . Because he didn't know what's going to happen.
The initiation starts when he meet Timothy. Timothy was tryin to help him survive . The best part of all is when he meets his mentor he goes blaind and now his depending on him, in my opinio that's the abyss. Timothy was his mentor, he try to help him. He took Phillip to a save place, and teach him things they would need to survive. The transformation was hard for Phillip, it took Timothy to slap him. He start seein things the way they are, and that they're going to need t0 pass through all of them together. I would slap Phillip earlier. But it seems that Timothy is a patient man.
Timothy dies after a storm. But he got time to teach Phillip a lot of stuff so he could survive with out him. After a few days or weeks Phillip was rescued. That's the return. The creation was that he wasn't raisist anymore, and tryed to make his mother tink his way, which was the good way .
I talked about Phillip and his Hero's Journey. He did completed the Hero's Journey, but he didn't get chance to choose. He was pushed trough all his adventure, and it changes his life and give him a good friend.

My paper is about Chuck Noland who I think completed the Hero's Journey. Chuck Noland is a man who had very hard obsticles to complete the Hero's Journey.
Chuck's separation was when he was in an airplane flying for work. While doing that his plane crashed and he was the only survivor. While floating in the ocean for a very long time he found a island and headed that way. He planned on getting found right away but that didn't happen so he kind of got settled in; just for the night. I think Chuck was very brave because if it happened to me I would be scared.
I think when Chuck looked at a FedEx box that washed up on shore was when he thought positive. He looked at the wings on the box and he suddenly had hope. I think Chuck was his own mentor because he was the only one on the island. Also because he was the one who taught hisself to do all the things he did while being stranded. Chuck's transformation was when he found "Wilson" the volleyball. I think he still had faith and he didn't feel so alone because of "Wilson."
Chuck's return was amazing! He built a raft and sailed out to get home. While the waves were beating him he kept going. Even though he lost "Wilson" along the way he couldn't give up; he never did. The next morning Chuck woke up to a huge ship sailing past him. As anyone would do he waved and screamed and before you knew it he was on a plane flying back home. I don't know about the creation but I do know that Chuck got re-created. Everyone thought no one survived so to everyone Chuck was dead. He wasn't so they had to "bring him back alive" by filling out a buch of paperwork; like he was a newborn baby.
I talked about Chuck Noland from "Castaway." I think that Chuck completed the Hero's Journey 100%. I think he completed it because he was lost and found his way home and inspired a lot of people; even me.

This paper will be about the Hero's Journey which is about Phillip Enright of the book "The Cay". Phillip Enright is a kid from Willemstad that encountered hardship in a lonely cay with a black man named Timothy. Timothy is Phillip's mentor in the book "The Cay" that was with Phillip when they were in the cay but died because of a storm that hit their cay. Phillip's dad work at the refinery and is the specialist at refining oil. Phillip's mom doesn't have a job and she doesn't like Willemstad because of the smell of oil and native people. Phillip did complete the Hero's Journey because he was able to change to be an independent person because of his mentor Timothy.
The separation started when the war started and they had to leave Willemstad to go to Norfolk, Virginia. His mom wanted to go to Virginia because they are originally from Virginia. The calling was the war, it's because Phillip had no choice but to leave Willemstad to go to Norfolk, Virginia. The threshold in the story was Phillip's mom and dad had the conversation about whether they will leave or not. The descent was when Phillip's mom and dad decided that Phillip and his mom will leave to Norfolk, Virginia, and so they boarded the boat going to America.
There was really no initiation but he did find a mentor though he didn't do any heroic deed. For the abyss, it's when they were on the boat on Caribbean sea. The other abyss is when Phillip and Timothy were aboard the raft on the Caribbean alone. Finally, the last abyss is when they drifted to an unknown island. His mentor is Timothy and on of the things that he did to wake Phillip is he slapped him when he won't work. The other one is when he protected Phillip from the storm. The transformation after Timothy slapped him was Phillip's attitude started to change. Also Phillip helped Timothy when he was sick with malaria. The last transformation was the death of Timothy, this had a huge impact to Phillip because he will have to use the surviving skills and surviving kits that Timothy made him so he could survive in the cay.
The return is when a boat came and rescue Phillip and took him back to Willemstad. One of the creation is that Phillip's family doesn't have to move from Willemstad to Virginia. Also that Phillip doesn't feel uncomfortable talking to native people. Phillip is even talking about Timothy with other native people and some of them knew Timothy of Charlotte Amalie. The last creation is that he will find the cay that he and Timothy got stranded and put the devil's mouth in the map so that everyone would know it existed and where Timothy of Charlotte Amalie died.
I talked about Phillip Enright from the book "The Cay" and his Hero's Journey. I talked about why they had to leave Willemstad. Also how he found his mentor through a war.

This paper is about "Hero's Journey". "Hero's Journey" has three steps: Separation, Initiation, and Return. I'm going to write about Chuck Noland and his " Hero's Journey". In a way Chuck Noland does complete his "Hero's Journey".
Chucks separation from his family friends and soon to be wife must not have been hard because he thought he would be home again in a matter of days. Chucks calling of separation was work because he had one more trip before Christmas. His threshold was leaving work in the U.S. but not really having a choice and him waking up not dead. Separation is really hard From leaving family and friends. Having to leave everything for so many years.
Chucks Initiation is him trying to get off the island by dong all he could and getting a friend Wilson, who's a volleyball. Part of his Initiation is the abyss of being on an island that know ones heard of before. Chucks mentor in the initiation is Wilson the volleyball. He talks to it like its a real person. His transformation is going on the top of the steep mountain to build a raft. Initiation is that someone might wish that they could do a heroic mentor that performed great deeds.
Chucks return is quite simple. He try's to get his life back together after all these years. He try's to get back with his fiance, but shes already married and has a child. He leaves her so she could be with he husband because he loves her so much. Chuck returns the box that he never opened with the wings and heads for a new life.In a way his choose to start over not knowing were he was going was a good idea.
This paper was about Chuck Noland and his experience on the unknown island. Chuck did complete his "Hero's Journey" because he follows all the steps. In my opinion i don't think id ever be able to complete "Hero's Journey" like Chuck did.
