I am Reverend Dimmesdale (Ch.1-6)
Hello and welcome to my world my name is Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale I won’t mind you calling me Mr. Dimmesdal. If you think I am a bad person because of what your friends has told you about me? And don’t want read about me it’s fine but trust me get to know me by reading a little about me. Because they say don’t judge a book by its cover. Yup now you’re smiling. Okay so, I lived in Boston, Massachusetts. I am a minister of a church where Hester used to come for worshiping. If you’re wondering what kind of church I am talking about, no worries it looks like this one http://www.oocities.org/ibenglish_chs/church.gif most people think I am a brilliant speaker, a kind man, and they love me very much. Hey, stop getting jealous because so many people loves me they love you as well. Okay let’s get serious now. In “Scarlet letter” I was Hester’s illegal lover thus leading her to sin with no regret. I didn’t feel anything bad about it tough. I was one of those people who secretly practice self-flagellation just to punish myself for all the sins I have done. I am the kind of person who likes to punish myself rather than other people punish me because I learn my mistake from it. I know I should have come out and tell the truth so Hester and Pearl wouldn’t duffer much. However, I have chosen to take the other way. I want Hester to learn her lesson by herself without anybody’s help. So I was talking to Hester and I confessed committing my sin to her and told her “The reason is not farto seek. It was my folly, and thy weakness. I—a man of thought—the book-worm of great libraries—a man already in decay, having given my best years to feed the hungry dream of knowledge—what had I to do with youth and beauty like thine own?” (pg.62) she wasn’t happy about it but I can care less about her.
