Why i liked the chase!

In class we read three narrations. The Chase, Salvation, and The hanging, all of them teaching different things about different stages in life. Although the hanging called my attention since it's more in depth than the other two, I preferred The Chase. This narration shows two very different stages of human growth, but demonstrates that in the end either young or old we all certainly have a hunger to fulfill goals. In this story the man chasing the kids sets one goal to catch them, which also brings out his kid side. Then there's also the controversy that women or the girl in the case is as competitive as the boy and the man. This taking us back to what she demonstrates throughout the whole story, "It's all or nothing." Setting high expectations is one of the most dominant themes in the narration because not only was the man determined not to lose the kids, the kids were determined to escape from him by jumping fences, going through thorny hedges, between houses, and around garbage cans. The man continued to fallow the kids, silently surpassing every obstacle put in his way. I liked this story because it teaches not to give up, no matter what position you are in.
