Response to Me


My guess is the hidden meaning is not about a boxing match.  I think that his reality has changed now that he has experience this battle royal.  I think he now realizes that has a choice to either give up the fight and not participate in this battle or he can keep up the fight and go on with this new outlook on life.  Life is not always going to be easy or go the way you want but you have a choice when you are faced with reality.  He hates what is going on now and does not know what is going to happy but he has a choice.  I’m not saying this is right or that it’s ok to treat people this way but he is learning from this experience and realizing he needs to play their game for now. 

I never thought literature was so deep.  I would just read the stories and think “That was a good book” and then put it down and didn’t think about it much more.  I have a hard time trying to find the hidden meaning but when we have a discussion we get to dig deeper and find multiple meanings.   By taking a deeper look into the stories we read is helping me experience life and helping me gain wisdom.
