how does the last sentence in the chapter tell us that as an adult ,Helen could appreciate the bright side of life despite her disadvantage
Answers
Helen Keller is considered as one of the most optimistic personages who ever lived in the annals of the history. In spite of being disabled, she developed the sense and ability to appreciate the bright side of life.
She loved life’s all good aspects to the fullest. She had quite a many hobbies and interests. She loved being in the country enjoying sports and outdoor activities such as rowing, boating, sailing, cycling, walking in the woods, etc. When she was quite a little girl, she learned to row and swim, and during the summer, when she was at Wrentham, Massachusetts, she almost lived in her boat. Nothing gave her greater pleasure than to take her friends out rowing when they visited her. She also enjoyed canoeing. Sailing was also her favourite amusement. In the summer of 1901 she visited Nova Scotia, and had opportunities such as she had not enjoyed before making the acquaintance of the ocean. During one of her sailing expeditions, Helen’s boat had been trapped in the storm, but the skillful captain had steered it safely to the shore.
Helen’s life teaches us if we dare the impossible we can make it possible with our courage, hard-work and optimism. Without this daring for adventure, Helen would not have been as successful as she was with it.
The main reason of the problem was the story “The Frost King” that she wrote to send to Mr. Anagnos on his birthday. (Though not sure)
