Her experience was when she saw the moths death it changed her mind about how she saw death. When the moth tried to fight its way out the window and died a few seconds later she wondered that the moth was fighting to go outdoors which was its life. In my opinion I did not understand how the moth got in going up and down, corner to corner smashing his self on the window and also how did the moth died so fast. I went back a couple of times to get the meaning of the story. I really understand the point of the story which caught my attention. This experience relates to a book I read a long time ago. That story was about a slave who stood up and fought for freedom and died freeing his fellow slaves. But the message to that story was standing up for you. I believe Virginia’s story was saying that what she saw was a sweet death.  This story is inspirational for life, also a great experience to others that read it. I wonder why Virginia did not open the window for the poor moth. If I was in that position where Virginia was I probably try to free the moth. This story makes me think about how animals and plants relate to people. For instance it’s funny how when you cut down a tree into a tree stumps that it will grow back and start a new life. In reference to that it seems like everything has life. That is how I feel about this story. It changed her life by the way she saw the beautiful death of the moth.

  1. Great post, Therezie! You make so many interesting comments here. I love your idea of opening the window. Why didn't she?? We didn't even talk about that in class. Good point! Also, I love how you talked about another book you've read and related to the story. Freedom is a huge part of the piece. Thanks for sharing. I love how you thought about this story!! -teachy teach
