Conscience

Your conscience does not matter because whether you do right or wrong does not affect your life and who you are as a person. I do not agree because your day by day deeds affect who you are as a person to your own being and others. Also no matter what the situation is you make a decision based on what you feel is moral within your own self. This is using your conscience.
Three examples in which Huck’s conscience influences his decisions are when he makes the decision to help Jim escape slavery, when he tries to escape and leave the “king” and “duke”, and lastly when he puts the stolen money in the coffin. I agree with all these except for the money. He is right to help another man get his freedom due to the fact that they are of equal values also the king and the duke were criminals and deserved punishment. I do not agree with the money issues because in the end it caused great peril.
One time in which my conscience got the best of me and influenced me to make the right decision is when I found a neat cell phone that could have been sold and decided to turn it into the front office. Though I really wanted to keep it I could not live with this decision.

Jamaica
This is one of the most fun things that I look forward to for several reasons. I just love the hot weather it is just very relaxing. Also I just love to get away from all of the trouble that I usually get in at home. When I am in Jamaica my family is always around. Also when I am with my family we make it a sort of tradition to go to Jamaica and every time I go to Jamaica we just have to go to the beach at least one time. I also love going to Jamaica because I don’t know all of my family when I go there I at least meet one member of my family that I never met before. I also just love going to Jamaica because I experience a lot of feelings there. Because I’ve been happy in Jamaica but I’ve also been very sad. The saddest thing that has happened to me when I went to Jamaica is when my grandma died Jamaica is where we held her funeral. I’ve also have some very fun times in Jamaica because Jamaica is where I learned how to swim. Also when I am in Jamaica I have a lot more freedom there than I have here in the states. Also in Jamaica the food is just so amazing nothing here in America taste any thing like it. Also when my family and I go to Jamaica we make it a custom to go to a local jerk shop and to have jerk chicken. Also we just can’t help ourselves but to bring some back her to the states. All in all there is no place like Jamaica to me. Also I always look forward to going to Jamaica every year

Moral Dilemmas of Huckleberry Finn

Moral Dilemmas of Huckleberry Finn

In Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Huck, the protagonist, is greatly influenced by four people: Widow Douglas, Tom Sawyer, Pap, and Jim.
Widow Douglas influences Huck directly because of the way that she tries to teach Huck religion. Also Widow Douglas influences directly when she tries to teach Huck manners and how to carry his self. Also Widow Douglas influences Huck indirectly because of the way that while Huck is running away he notices that people are praying and if Widow Douglas didn’t teach Huck about praying then maybe he wouldn’t notice people praying as much. “The Widow Douglas, she took me for her son, and allowed she would civilize me; and so when I couldn’t stand it any longer, I lit out.”(Twain1)
Tom Sawyer also influences Huck directly because when Huck and Tom are around each other they use each other and challenge each other to do certain things. Also Tom influences Huck indirectly because when Tom isn’t around Huck realizes that and lets the reader know that. “But Tom Sawyer, he hunted me up and said he was going to start a band of robbers, and I might join if I would go back to the widow and be respectable.”(Twain 1)
Pap is another character in the book that influences Huck in this book. Pap influences Huck directly because of the way that when Pap is around Huck seems to acts a lot smarter. Also Huck is influenced indirectly because when Pap isn’t around Huck is a lot more aware also Huck thinks a lot smarter and a lot faster. “ I said to myself, they’ll follow the track of that sack full of rocks to the shore, and then search the river for me.(Twain 25) This is an example of Huck thinking carefully to avoid Pap even though he is not around.
Also Jim is another character the influences Huck .Jim influences Huck directly because while they are running away he tries to get Huck to get involved in believing in good and bad luck. Jim also influences Huck indirectly by having Huck make decisions based on precautions and superstitions. “After breakfast I wanted to talk to the dead man but Jim didn’t want tom, he said it would fetch bad luck……….”.(Twain 19)
Without these key influences in his life, Huck would be a very different person

Post 1:Huck Finn Response (Ch.1-12)

In this book Huck Finn plenty of things happened so far. Some things that have happened were that Huck is living with Widow Douglas. Also his dad shows up out of no where and asks Huck for the money that Huck has. But there is a problem because Huck has given the money to the judge. Next Huck's dad kidnaps Huck and Huck escapes and then he meets up with a slave named Jim. Later on Huck puts on a dress and names him self Sarah Williams and finds out that the whole town thinks he is dead an are looking for his body and they believe that the slave killed Huck and they decide to run off.
There are plenty of things that i really like in this book.One thing that i like is that we watched the sequel .Another thing that i like is that Huck expresses his feelings to any one.Also another thing that i like is how smart Huck is because of the way that decided to do with his money so that his dad couldn't get to it. Some things that i don't like is when Huck dressed up like a girl. I also don't like how Huck acts just like Jim.I also think that this book is like of mice of men because of the way that the main characters use each other and also how the characters use each other to help and learn from one another.
