Great Expectations.

"Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day."

In this passage Pip was referring to the first day he went to Miss Havisham's house and found out about her life. It was a very memorable day in his life because he experienced many new things after meeting Miss Havisham. Looking back, Pip can see that this day stands clear in his memory as one that changed his life.
The day my brother left for college, I didn't really think it would change my life that much. I mean, I was about to start seventh grade and his life wasn't my top priority. Looking back, I realize how much I relied him. And he's no longer down the hall every time I need him. Looking back, I can see that day as the day that our roads diverged as he left for college.


My blog was being crazy and wouldn't let me post!!
