The Red A

   “The townspeople who had known Hester Prynee before she was disgraced.” [31] That is how many people introduce me as. I am a brave women many people can confirm that for you. All the people in the town hate me. Mostly they never have nothing good to say about me. To get you caught up about four years ago my husband sent me to Boston. Boston is where I am currently living at still even after everything that has occurred. We were supposed to move here together. Instead he decided it would be a much better idea for me to get here first and just fix our home. Two whole years passed! He never came! He lied to me. Sadly I have needs just like any other women. This is where my life takes a huge turn.  

      A woman with no husband by her side for two years ends up pregnant. The whole town would know that I was with another man. This was obviously going to be a huge issue on my half. The whole town had me in their mouth. The Governor decided to put me in jail because I committed a huge sin. Many people had many things to say about my actions. Ion my eyes that is not fair. God should be the only one judging others mistakes. http://bible.cc/ecclesiastes/12-14.htm

     The Governor decided my punishment would be to humiliate me in front of all the people in the town. To me did not seem too bad just because others were saying death was the perfect punishment. After all I did stitch the Governor some wonderful white gloves, which he never takes off! Another part of my punishment was to wear a red scarlet letter for the rest of my life. Thankfully I am a very talented at sewing. Then again that was my occupation. I enjoy stitching, it just eases my mind from things. Also keeps me very entertained.

     The day I ahd to stand on the scaffold for almost three hours with my little angel Pearl crying. I believe she got a cold that same day. I was standing staring at the huge crowd who was just staring back at me. I noticed someone who I believed I would never see again. I recognized the man. “He was a small hump-backed man with a thin, pale face.” It was my husband! I felt terrified. Later that day I was at my cell with Pearl. She was still crying I requested a doctor for her. My husband comes in! He acted as if he was a doctor to see me and ask me who the father was. I will never say that information. I shall keep all that to myself. Never will I put him in danger. http://misslperiod1.wikispaces.com/Hester+Prynne+at+the+beginning+of+SL-1

Why does Elizabeth want to still hide things from her family after all they have been through?

Elizabeth does not want to share all her secrets with her family. She knows that her faimly may not approve of everything she does. This is why she thinks it would be better if she kept a couple things to herself.

Who does Elizabeth trust the most? Why is that?

Elizabeth only can trust Alex with everything that is happeing in her life. He does not judge her at all. This is what Elizabeth loves the most and this is why she can trust Alex with anything. Plus Alex is the type of person that does not mention anything to anyone.

Who can Elizabeth lie to with ease? Why is this?

Elizabeth can lie to her mother. Reason for so is because her mother has lied to her and has kept many important things from her. So Elizabeth does not feel as bad as if she would lie to Alex. She feels guilty when she lies. But when she lies to her mother she does not feel that anymore.

Since I discovered that Dimmesdale has The Scarlet Letter A, I have been thinking he’s a real father of Pearl. Why he’s hiding his secret?  He should take response of what he did to Hester and Pearl, but he’s escaping of that instead of telling the truth. He’s a big liar, he’s protecting himself since he tells the real things between Hester and him, he will lose respect of townspeople, and can’t be pastor anymore. One day night, I was going for a walk, suddenly I saw Hester, Pearl and Dimmesdale were standing on the scaffold. This time I made sure he’s the real sinner of all things which happened recently. http://www.shmoop.com/scarlet-letter/reverend-arthur-dimmesdale.html  Author described him as angel like “I’ll bet Satan stole it and left it there to mock your holiness.”(P.80)  Everybody thinks that he won’t do the things like that, such as have a sex with a women who has husband and escape the punishment. I tried to force him to admit his sin and out speak to the world, but he said he just can communicate with God and he can’t trust anyone else. Such a stubborn person he is, I just want to seek justice for my wife Hester and find a father for that little girl, but they keep saying that I’m a bad person and they started to suspect about my identity. I will let them know who’s the most suspect person here, not me, but Dimmesdale. Not everybody looks so nice, and he’s not a good person just because of he’s a pastor, everybody believe him.

How dare you take my child away from me! You took all I have left. Pearl is my life. You can punish me however you want but don’t let my sweet child be separated from her mother. “God gave me the child…He gave her in requital of all things else which ye had taken from me” (Hawthorne 91). I promise you that I will do anything you want me to do, but just let me keep my child. Call her a sinner’s child. In addition, she will learn from my mistakes and you can even ask her questions to see how a good mother I am to this innocent child. I will teach her everything she should know about our religion. Also, I found a really good website http://www.historyforkids.org/learn/northamerica/after1500/religion/puritans.htm. This website teaches children about the puritans.

I know that don’t care about what I have to say; you don’t even want to listen to me because I am a sinner. Also, you don’t give me the respect like you do to this Governor and ministers. Please, Dimmesdale, convince them to let me keep my child since they adore you and respect you most. Listen to what Dimmesdale is talking about when he says that I should keep this child. This isn’t too much to ask compared to the shame that you all put me through. I definitely don’t want my daughter to experience the shame of losing her mother just because you think I can’t raise her correctly.

At the end of that long judgment and discussion, they let me keep my Pearl. I feel so happy because she is all that I have since they took away my reputation. So, now I need to keep teaching my child because they might ask her new questions. They want me to suffer so they will do anything to achieve that. Thank God I have the only thing that keeps me alive.

Dressed in my finest religious clothes, I walked down the street and stopped at the scaffold. I could stand up there now, in the dark where no one could see me. But seven years before I couldn’t stand there with Hester and accept my guilt. I felt so ashamed that I cried out in the night. My painful cry caused many people, even the Governor, to look out their windows. After me crying I heard footsteps. Reverend Wilson was thinking about the man who, had passed away just moments before, so he didn’t even notice me on the scaffold. Later Hester and Pearl stepped up onto the platform. The moment that I took Pearl’s hand, I felt as if new life flowed through him. The three of us formed a chain I felt new energy, even though lately he had felt sick and tired. Hester and I didn’t know what to say to each other. Only Pearl spoke. My daughter asked me if I would stand on the scaffold with her and her mother. I told her that no I would not stand with them tomorrow but maybe another time I will. I told Pearl “that they would all stand together there on Judgment Day” (79).  Looking up in the dark night sky I thought I saw a hug glowing red A. While I was staring at the flaming red A in the sky, I felt Pearl pulling on my hand. I looked to see what Pearl was pointing at, and I was stunned to see Roger Chillingworth standing in front of the platform. I looked down at the man and shivered when I saw Chillingworth’s cold, cruel smile. I turned to Hester and ask her if she knew this man but she didn’t answer my question. Hester was silent. The next morning one of the townspeople came up to me to give me my glove that he had found on the scaffold. Before he could answer, the said “I’ll bet Satan stole it and left it there to mock your holiness.” The man who returned my gloves ask me if I saw the red A last night. I told him no that I had no idea what he was talking about. I was scared i had been discovered and that the man would blurt out my secret but the man said that it stood for Angel. I was relieved that he didn’t know what the A stood for.

“I Didn’t Deserve This”                                                                                                                                       

One day I was I walking to the Governor’s mansion to deliver a pair of gloves that he had ordered. I decorated the gloves with my finest on it. I made it for him because I wanted him to wear them on a special occasion. While I was delivering the home made gloves I overheard the townspeople and heard more bad things about me. I was walking with Pearl to go to the governor’s house for a meeting, while we were walking to the house a group of kids like Pearls age walked to us and got ready to throw rocks at us. I saw Pearl face when saw them and her just yelled and screamed and they just ran off, and she went back to her normal self.

When we arrived at the meeting the governor was shocked to see my other decoration that I made to Pearls dress. I made a scarlet A on Hester’s dress. Everyone was arriving at the meeting even Chillingworth. We were determining if I should keep Pearl or not I told them that Pearl is my sin and that god gave me Pearl to remind me of my sin every day and every time I see pearl it reminds me of me sin. It took them along time to decide if Pearl should stay with me or send her to go learn to be a good child. I was giving Pearl because of Dimmesdale was convinced for he to keep Pearl and the meeting was over.  While I was walking out of the house I smiled to Chillingworth because I won Pearl.

I have been searching on the internet for the best site to show me how to make an A on to a shirts and dresses http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Easily-Sew-a-Patch-onto-a-Shirt-or-Jacket/ I am trying to make a A onto Pearl’s dress because I was everyone to see that Pearl is apart on me. A quote that I have found was when Hester was telling everyone about Pearl (62)“I learn from it every day. If I can teach its lessons to my daughter, shewill be saved from my fate, even though I can’t be.”

Hello, for those of you who do not know me, my name is Arthur Dimmesdale. I have been living in the new world ever since the first of the convoys sent from England. The trip was rough and the seas did not let up, but yet, I am here, writing this, so God most certainly has determined my destiny. Ever since I got here, I have been the town minister ever since I got here, and all of the villagers love me. Life has been pretty fantastic, that is, up until now. For lack of better words, let us just say I messed up, big time. Now I have this girl to worry about. Her name is Hester Pryne, and she is like no other woman in this town. Hester is quite beautiful, unlike the other women of this village, who are, for the most part, solemn and strict. This is wrong of me to say, for I should be unbiased and fair, but this is my only chance to speak my mind. I am feeling terrible today; I had this Hester Pryne stand on some scaffolding all day yesterday. I could barely stand to watch, but I was forced to question this woman and determine who the man who had done this was. I fell like such a hypocrite! Meanwhile, I have this entire town looking up to me for religious advice, and they love me! I feel awful; I need to tell them, but I cannot. I need some ideas; here is a site I have been looking at; http://www.jenniferlehrmft.com/telling-the-truth-creating-authentic-relationships/. I have been getting advice on improving relationships with this site and hopefully I can fix this problem. I really ought to go to a rehab clinic or something. If anyone has any ideas, please follow me, I need help!

I’m producing that people in the District 12 will die. Later on in the story because they don’t have all the food they need for everyone to eat. On the book someone said that in “District Twelve. Where you can stave to death. Thats what made me think that later on lot of people will die because they didn’t have food.
