forced (yet again) to read a Mark Twain novel based around the same characters I have more an open mind and understanding of literature than I did a few years back when I first met Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn.

Walt Whitman’s poem, “When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer,” is about a person…

The chapter was very descriptive but I found the last segment named “Completely Disclosing Yourself” was the true closer and perfect key in comparing my life experiences with the chapters’ theories. The first part is knowing yourself. I really have no problem when talking…
