I chose this quote because I thought it went with the topic I picked. It means as if you rush into love and do without thinking it will end in a disaster. My essay will be about who I think was at fault for Romeo and Juliet’s death, how they were at fault, and what they did to cause it. I think Romeo and Juliet took part in their own deaths.…

    The chapter “‘You’ll Never Believe What Happened’ Is Always a Good Place to Start” from the Native Narrative “The Truth About Stories” by Thomas King explores the twisting path of how stories configure who we are, how we interpret, and how we interact with the world around us. Thomas King uses detailed examples in his writing that exceed what he is trying to say. For instance, as a narrator, he tells a story about the moment he discovered what happened to his Father. The narrator's Father left when he was only a little boy, remarried twice, and had seven more children who never knew that the narrator nor his brother existed until the day of all their father's funeral.…
