Interesting Passages Response from Things Fall Apart

Clearly his personal god or chi was non made for gigantic things. A man could non organise beyond the destiny of his chi. The saying of the elders was not true- that if a man said yeah his chi also affirmed. Here was a man whose chi said nay despite his own affirmation. (Achebe, 131) This passage created a question in my mind. Whos lookhot argon we reading from? It seems as mentation we are reading what a fabricator is saying, exclusively the narrator is somebody from that tribe. In most books, if a character doesnt do the narration, the narrator knows what is rightfully pass on or what is going to happen.In this book, and shown in this passage, the narrator seems to surrender full suppose in everything he is saying. When it comes to what the passage itself says, I start to think about what their beliefs are doing to them. Is this what they are born to believe? Their chi seems to be pulling them back for than share them move along. It and their other beliefs are for ever and a day stopping them from something, which is more than beneficial consequently they know. For example, what is so bad about having twin? If anything, that should be a blessing because the family has more children, but with a shorter wait. . He sighed heavily, and as if in sympathy the smoldering lumber also sighed. And immediately Okonkwos eyes were opened and he saw the unanimous matter clearly. Living fire be specifys cold, powerless ash tree. He sighed again, deeply. (153) This was the last paragraph in Okonkwos thoughts on Nwoye and also were he sated that he was popularly called the Roaring ardour. He then started to compare himself to the fire. I really the likes ofd this passage and what was written before it for various reasons.This action shows us that he and his people arent any different than other human beings. We have different beliefs and different life styles, but when it comes down to it there human fairish like us. We all repair ourselves to thin gs. virtuoso example used in slope is the use of similes. Similes are just bingle way we relate ourselves to living and non-living things. probably the best reason to why I like this passage so often is because I can really relate to it. I dont average I once compared or envisi unmatchabled myself as something Im not like youd do in a simile.I mean that in one point in my life I actually compared myself to a burning fire. I still have that compare. I could really understand where Okonkwo was coming from with this cold ash thing because Ive done a comparison a lot like it. I even mentioned a out of work fire when I ended that comparison and this wasnt some poem I wrote for a grade, but an actual daybook entry and not just something to get a grade. What I am difficult to say is, I really like this passage and I liked how metaphorical Okonkwo was when he said it.
