According to Beah`s grandmother, why should one aspire to be like the moon?
Answers
"'We must strive to be like the moon.' An old man in Kabati repeated this sentence often to people who walked past his house on their way to the river to fetch water, to hunt, to tap palm wine; and to their farms. I remember asking my grandmother what the old man meant. She explained that the adage served to remind people to always be on their best behavior and to be good to others. She said that people complain when there is too much sun and it gets unbearably hot, and also when it rains too much or when it is cold. But, she said, no one grumbles when the moon shines. Everyone becomes happy and appreciates the moon in their own special way."
This was taken from the passage on page 13 for those using Edgenuity.com paragraph one, I just edited it by adding an apostrophe where the quotations are.
