The Fox

-
(The Fox Hunt by Winslow Homer)

Do you feel empathy? What about for the fox? Could you ever feel empathy for her? Do you keep telling yourself that she got what she deserved? You can't help both sides and not expect your downfall to be inevitable. She wanted to be the strongest. She craved power, yet she did not wait patiently like the wolf. She tried to please everyone. She loved the wolf, trusted the rabbit, befriended the deer, and followed the bear. This  was the problem at hand. To raise one up you must bring down another. The fox knew she had to stab one to please another. She accomplished this thoroughly. Sure she broke hearts and lead people astray, but that is what she wanted. The fox was beautiful with her red fur. She always tried to find people to follow her. She lead them to the mountain. She knew that she could not reach that mountain. She wanted to feel accomplished, that it was because of her someone would rise. Little did they know she would lead them to their downfall. She didn't know. She didn't mean to hurt anyone. She thought she was doing what she was made to do. She was made for more, yet the acceptance of the other animals clouded her judgement. All that was good and evil became blurry as every good deed had a punishment, and every evil was justified. In the end she fell into the gray, where she would remain.  .

Disclaimer: This post is going to contain spoilers to the show. I suggest finish the show before reading this or if you don't have any interest in watching the show than welcome?...I guess. My facebook has been blowing up with all the people talking about the new show to hit Netflix know as 13 Reasons Why , a story about a boy named Clay Jensen finding cassette tapes from a girl at his high school named Hannah Baker who recently killed herself. On the tapes, Hannah gives 13 reasons why she committed suicide. The show depicts heavy topics such as suicide, bullying, stalking, lying, sexual assault, and other issues that young people deal with in this age. Now I will admit that this show was difficult to get through. I would constantly yell at the television due to the frustration I would have for some of the characters and dialogue in the show.

(Corn Poppy Kees Van Dongen) June 12th 2002 Dear Elizabeth, How have you been recently? I know it has been a while since I last talked to you. I can't believe it has really been almost three years since I saw you! I know we really didn't end on the best terms, but I am writing this letter to really catch up with you, because I still miss you as a friend and nothing more. I heard you moved to France a couple of months back. Mom told me that your parents are starting to come back to church and we found out through them. Just to make it clear, they were just informing us in passing, I wasn't trying to be a creep and asking about you or anything in that nature. I am glad your parents don't seem to hate me like they did before. They miss you a lot and hope you would find a college back in the states. I am doing okay in case you were wondering. I am still an art major in college and I should be finishing up by next fall. I heard five years is the new four years a
