Reaction Paper on the Deconstruction in Thank You Ma'am

“There are a million acts of kindness each day.  Some young man gives a stranger a compliment, or a teacher brightens a student’s morning.  But, in the world we live in today, these acts are rare to come by.  In this short story Thank You, Ma’am, the boy, out of mysterious luck, gets taken in by the woman whom he was trying to steal a purse from.  Her actions, following the incident towards the boy, may have seemed very kind and understanding, but the boy needs a more solid way of punishment.  He requires discipline that will show him that as complicated as life is, there will not always be someone for you to lean and depend on. The first and most foremost thing that would come to mind when reading this story is how caring Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones was, that she took in the boy and nurtured him; she tried to teach him between right and wrong.”…….. In the story “Thank You Ma’am” I learn many things especially how the woman treated the boy who tried to steal her purse. He didn’t even hurt the boy, she just comforts him and she gave him food to eat. The women tell the boy not to steal things from others. She told him the right way and she disciplined the boy. She gave the boy a chance to prove himself that he can be trusted and good to others. The story is very touching and amazing. You can learn a lot of things in this story.

What Christmas Means to Me?

            All of us celebrate Christmas. Once in a year, we celebrate it because it is the birthday of Jesus Christ. Around the world, we celebrate Christmas in different ways. So what truly Christmas means?
            When I think of Christmas, I think of good things. We are supposed to love each other and have a nice time. Actually, Christmas is not about getting stuff of getting things you want…No. Christmas is the best time for me. It brings family and friends together. Christmas means a joyful time of a year. It is my favorite holiday. Do you know why? Because it is Jesus’ birthday, the birth of our savior, our Lord and King. On that day, the wise men and all the shepherds came to the stable to see Jesus. And they celebrate the birth of Jesus. Christmas means having fun with your family, spending time with them, giving gifts for other people, seeing all the beautiful lights, decorating the Christmas tree and eating all the food you can eat!
            And I wish everyone is happy, spending time with their love ones, going to church and celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ. That’s what Christmas means to me.
