If..... -Paragraph

Kipling's use of the terms man and son I believe implys leadership and courage but also maturity. Not giving up and rebuilding your life after it has fallen apart is something you have to be able to be mature enough to deal with. Perhaps his use of the word son implys that he wants to teach it to his son or that humans are all gods children. The traits Kipling describes could describe either men or women. It describes courageous, mature skills that people should have.

My Left Foot-Paragraph

Christy's ability to write with his left foot allows him to communicate with the world around him making his life easier and freeing him from being imprisoned within his mind. He now can talk to his family and express his feeling to them in the form of writing. He can get an education and learn how to be a contributive member of society. Christy defied the odds and showed everyone he was smart and he wrote an entire book. Christy would likely have never been sucessful or been happy if he had not learned to write.
