From the story “Young Goodman Brown” what came to my understanding from the story so far, was that at first Goodman Brown was going to leave his “Faith” at home and walk into the woods. While he was walking a man that looked like his father was caring a staff. While they were both walking Goodman Brown was hesitant to continue walking through the woods. When they were walking Goodman Brown saw the minister, Deacon Gookin and Goody Cloyse, he trusted all three of them because, they were all Christians. However, when he continued walking he saw that all three of them had a dark side and that they had betrayed his trust. At this time Goodman Brown has afraid, until he heard the voice of his “Faith” he wanted to know there it was coming from, until it faded. From the sky a pink ribbon fell onto the floor, when that happens Goodman Brown lost his faith completely. At that moment Goodman Brown belived that there was nothing good on earth, so he decided to become evil.
What I understand from the poem “Dream Within a Dream” is that it seems hard to understand what is a dream and what it real life. It is also really hard to remember what your dream was about even after you just woke up. No matter how had you try to remember it the less you seem to know what you were dreaming about and even the most basic details about it. The author also want to show how he would like to hold on to them for a long period of time so he can remember at least the good things in life, even if that comes from just a dream.
