When Celie says, “The God I been praying and writing to is a man. And act just like all the other mens I know,” she expresses disappointment, betrayal, and disillusionment. Discuss a moment in your own life when something you believed in turned out to be different than what you imagined. How did this realization shape your identity or worldview?

 When i was younger of course i believe in Santa Clause. Though kids at school will tell me all the time santa was fake i didnt believe them. One day, i woke up in the middle of the night and saw my father wrapping gifts. I was devastated. I felt tricked and lied to. Out of spite and rebelliousness, i went to school the following week and told everyone Santa was fake. Given , i was telling everyone i could possibly tell, students began to cry. The  teacher decided to call my mom , and i had to go home for the rest of the day.

Prompt: In Letters 46–50, Celie begins to see Albert more clearly—his flaws, his regrets, and the ways he changes when he is no longer in complete control of her. Their relationship slowly shifts from fear and dominance to honesty and distance. Write about a relationship in your life that changed over time as you grew older or more aware. What made the dynamic shift, and how did your understanding of that person evolve?

 A relationship that changed over time was my relationship woth my paternal grandparents. When i was younger i used to talk, text and visit them in Virginia very often. As i grew up i became less attached. Not because of anything negative, but simply because it just happened. I still love them dearly , we just communicate less. Growing up they taught me alot and put me through learning experiences so for that im grateful.

Prompt: Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks and spending time with family over a nice dinner. Write about your most unforgettable meal.

Every year me and my mother would have thanksgiving at my uncles house. These past few years we've grown apart and my mother and I have had thanksgiving at home. Given she knows i don't eat pork and don't like turkey , she made this phenomenal pot roast. The meat was perfect, the sauce was proportionate, the carrots were soft and the potatoes were delicious. Everything just perfect and had me counting down for the next thanksgiving.  Today we read a few letters of the color purple and took and short group test.

Prompt: As Celie’s world expands in these letters, she begins noticing new things about the people in her life. Write about a moment when you suddenly noticed something funny, shocking, or unexpected about someone you see every day (a family member, a classmate, or even a teacher). How did that new discovery change the way you saw them?

 In middle school i had this one teacher that i respected greatly and loved. I started to realize more and more how much of a liat she was and it made me respect her less. Me knowing she’s was ok with willingly lying didn't sit right with me and still doesn't. It also made me feel as if she didn't take me nor her other students seriously due to how easy it seemed lying came to her, even of it was about little things. Today we read the book the color purple and answered some questions about a few letters.

Prompt: These letters show how Celie learns from the people around her, even in small ways. Think of someone in your life who influences you in a positive, everyday way—a friend, relative, teacher, or teammate. Write about what you’ve learned from them and how their influence shows up in your daily life.

 My mom influences me in the best ways possible.Though shes not perfect, my whole life shes built my character to be a resilient, honest young woman. She has taught me to defend myself and character all the while respecting others and their voice. She has also taught me one of my best abilities which is to coexist with those i don't care for.  Today we read the book the Color purple and continued our Adobe visual presentation project.  TODAYS MY BIRTHDAY!!!!
