The Old Man and the Sea The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemington is an interesting tale in which Santiago, an old fisherman, has been out of luck while trying to catch fish. This story is interesting because I feel as if many of the points made in this story can relate back to the world we live in today. The Old Man and the Sea also has an interesting theme; I feel as if the theme could be respect. There could also be a deeper theme, such as loneliness. The old man, Santiago, could be…

I was in cub scouts when I was little and I have a lot of pretty good memories from it. I started cub scouts in 1st grade when I was six years old and was in it until the beginning of third grade when I was eight years old. I was in two different, “packs,” when I was in cub scouts one in Illinois and one in Washington state. In Illinois I was a tiger scout which is also the lowest rank in cub scouts. I competed in my first pine wood derby that year and I came second in my division to Joey Harmon…

“There are three things that are brothers: my two hands and the fish.” Santiago, or the old man, states this in the beginning of his voyage with the mighty marlin. This begins to develop the theme of Santiago’s relationship with nature. In my opinion, the best theme in the story. In the beginning, it is briefly mentioned that some of Santiago’s, or the old man’s, fellow fisherman disrespected nature. Santiago had a positive relationship with nature. He had no trouble sleeping outside because he…

Much like swimming in the ocean, no matter how overwhelming it can become, everyone can learn to cope with their grief.
