DESCRIPTION
This is a very old powerpoint that I presented on one of my last days on high school to my peers. We were asked to find a song that we believed best described who we were and also relate a piece of literature we had recently read to our lives. The random pictures of swimming and water polo were used to showcase a part of my life that I was very proud of and loved. I found this recently and it made me happy, so I thought I would share it with you. Enjoy. :)

The Metamorphosis
• By Franz Kafka• Gregor feels trapped in society, later becomes trapped in a
cockroach body.– A slave to society
“Well, I haven’t given up hope completely; once I’ve gotten the money together to pay off my parents’ debt to him- that will probably take another five or six years- I’m going to do it without fail. Then I’m going to make the big break. But for the time being I’d better get up, since my train leaves at five” (4).
The Metamorphosis in Relation to My Life…
• I feel that I need to take care of other people
• I feel limited to being myself and enjoying my life because of problems other people are experiencing.
• I become a “slave” to others because I put myself in situations
“If we want a better world than that now in prospect ‘we must-as humanity, as people, as conscious beings with spirit, mind, and a sense of responsibility- some how come to our senses’” (David W. Orr).
