The Pursuit of Happyness

The movie was really emotional it made me think about a lot of things that homeless might go threw and how they actually became homeless . The movie is basically about a sales man who is trying to sell a bunch of Osteo national bone dentisty scanners which he had bought .


1. What happens in Chris Gardner's life to make him and his son become homeless?
   Chris wasn't really selling or making enough money from all his Osteo national bone dentistry scanners
because they weren't really word much anymore and not many people would want to buy them and Chris had invested all his money into them which left his family broke.

2. Did the events appear to you to be the result of someone's fault , poor decisions , or just a sequence of events ?  I believe that the result's that happened to Chris were his own fault but then again he figured a way to get out of his problems but he had to go threw a lot of downer type stages in his life .

3. What would be different for Chris in this same situation if he didn't have his son, Christopher , to care for ?
      If Chris didn't have his son i think he would probably feel lonely but then he wouldnt have so much more
to stress about while trying to sell his scanners .

4. What would be different for Chris and his son in this same situation if they became homeless in Chicago ?
     I doubt that it would've been any different if they were homeless in Chicago because they would go threw the same trouble to try to sell the scanners and find places to sleep at and for Chris to find work .

5. What appears to be the most difficult aspect for Chris and his son as they use emergency shelter ?
     Chris had to keep going on time to the line to actually stay in a shelter place to keep his son safe . It was difficult for him because he had his inter work in mind and he wanted to sell his last scanner but needed a new part to just sell it .
 
6. What do you think keeps Chris going when he hits ' bottom' in the despair of his situation ?
    I believe his son Christopher is in mind that's why he keeps going and him knowing himself that giving up won't really get him anywhere and him and his son would still be in the same bad situation .

7. What do you think would have happened to Chris and his son if he had not been the intern selected for the job? Chris would've probably kept going and looking for other jobs . He doesn't look like a man that would let anything stop him because he knew that he would make it some way or another .

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

1. When Gawain set out on his journey , what was his goal ? Did his goal change by the end of the quest ?

2. Gawain had to face his fear in the abyss. What were his fears ?
   He feared dying and getting his head chopped off .

3. The Green Knight only nicked the back of Gawain's neck. What do you think would have happened to Gawain if he had not accepted the green girdle from the Green Knight's wife ?

4.What does Gawain learn about himself and about life from his encounter with the Green Knight ?
   Gawain learned that he had been a coward . The Green Knight let him keep the green girdle to remind him when that when he accomplish something he can look upon the girdle and it will humble him .
