1. Read the excerpt from "Ode on a Grecian Urn" by John Keats.
Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss,
Though winning near the goal-yet, do not grieve;
She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss,
Forever wilt thou love, and she be fair!
Which statement best represents the meaning of these lines?
O A The lovers have won each other's love and do not need to worry.
OB The youth and the beauty of the lovers will never go away.
O C The speaker grieves enough for both of the lovers: they "do not grieve."
OD The young man has a bliss that is separate from that of the woman.

what are some attributes about yourself that has changed?

how do you view your character; what or who has changed it?

what stories do you have about people or things that have changed you?

has religion changed you? an exciting event?

do you believe life has an adventure in store? do you believe it's meaningless?

try to answer questions about yourself.
