The Internal Constant
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
While everyone on this earth is physicly unique, all share many
|
|||
|
|
internal emotions and internal struggles with each other. Although outside
|
|||
|
|
they are different than anyone else, inside there is commonplace. In the
|
|||
|
|
book A Separate Peace, I believe that one of the main characters, Gene,
|
|||
|
|
resembles me as he grows up into this world.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In A Separate Peace, Gene had a great friendship with a boy named
|
|||
|
|
Finny, whose friendship resembled that of my friendship with my best
|
|||
|
|
friend, Mason. Whenever I would go anywhere with Mason, I would not know
|
|||
|
|
what to expect, but one thing I did know was that it would be exciting.
|
|||
|
|
This was the same for Gene and Finy; Gene would go along with Finny, never
|
|||
|
|
expecting what would happen next, but enjoying the sense of freedom. For
|
|||
|
|
example, one morning Mason decided to hike to the "500 acres," a large plot
|
|||
|
|
of land close to where we lived. We discovered an Indian reservation and a
|
|||
|
|
small clearing under the dense forest of oak trees next to a five foot
|
|||
|
|
waterfall. Mason told me never to tell anyone about this place and so I
|
|||
|
|
did not.(so here I am telling this to my English teacher...). Gene and
|
|||
|
|
Finny entered a large gymnasium and discovered a few pole vaults. Finny
|
|||
|
|
abruptly picked one up, ran, and pole vaulted, breaking the school record.
|
|||
|
|
He then told Gene never to tell anyone about Finny breaking the record.
|
|||
|
|
Both of these instances are incredibly alike. Finally, Finny was symbolicly
|
|||
|
|
killed because of society. Finny was wounded and wound up in a cast. He
|
|||
|
|
eventually died after he had seen what society really was. This situation
|
|||
|
|
is a lot like Mason's situation. Mason moved out of our neighborhood and
|
|||
|
|
his new next door neighbor introduced him to drugs, killing that free
|
|||
|
|
spirit which made him alive. Society had taken the best of both Mason and
|
|||
|
|
Finy, but like Gene, I still had that inspiration which could never be
|
|||
|
|
stolen from either I or Gene.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In addition to these close relationships, Gene is a lot like me in
|
|||
|
|
that he must deal with growing up and maturing. One step in maturing is
|
|||
|
|
knowing who to listen to and who not to listen to. At Gene's school,
|
|||
|
|
teachers enforce rules, cutting and chipping away at all that his friend
|
|||
|
|
Finny stood for -- freedom. Gene was torn between one question; Is it
|
|||
|
|
better to live by rules and boundaries which teachers have, or to live like
|
|||
|
|
Finny? He finally matures and picks the Finny route, a wise decision. I
|
|||
|
|
have struggled with that question for quite some time now. Only recently
|
|||
|
|
have I chose the Finny route, and currently I am trying to follow that
|
|||
|
|
narrow path. For example, I am not satisfied with any church in my area --
|
|||
|
|
they are all too strict and confined. While the preacher preaches rules
|
|||
|
|
and strict discipline, I close my ears. Also, now I enjoy challenging
|
|||
|
|
authority, such as challenging vice principals who enforce tank top rules.
|
|||
|
|
In addition to this, Gene faces pressure from his peers. Some students
|
|||
|
|
decided to be Gene's enemy because they believed that Gene was sully
|
|||
|
|
responsible for Finny's death. In the same but not so dramatic way, some
|
|||
|
|
students decided to be my enemy because they believed that I was sully
|
|||
|
|
responsible for their bad grade in my math class.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Gene is a unique person who is amazingly like me at times. The people
|
|||
|
|
he deals with and the problems he faces as he grows up are like the people
|
|||
|
|
and problems that I have dealt with or will have to deal with. Growing up
|
|||
|
|
is a learning process. When that freshman goes into the wrong locker room,
|
|||
|
|
she realizes her mistake usually the hard way and covers it up by
|
|||
|
|
investigating the coke machine then quickly exiting, hiding the fact that
|
|||
|
|
she's learning something and growing up, and thinking that the rest of
|
|||
|
|
those guys have no more growing up to do. Growing up is something that we
|
|||
|
|
all have to face, so we are all alike in this respect, even though we try
|
|||
|
|
to hide this fact. It's amazing how many teenagers commit suicide thinking
|
|||
|
|
that they are the only ones who have to grow up.
