TKAM+entry+3

Past, Present, and Future...

To Kill a Mockingbird tells us many things. But what does TKAM tell us about our past? What I think that TKAM tells us about our past is that it makes us think back and try to remember if we have done any of the stupid things that Scout and Jem are doing through out this whole book. It makes us remember our old friends and all the old games we used to make up and play with our friends and our family members. When I think back I think of being on my old bus and being with all my old friends from Northeastern before I moved here to Central in the first grade. That is how TKAM reminds me of my past.

To Kill a Mockingbird reminds me of my present because Jem and Scout are kids too. They go to school, they learn, they are curious, and want to be with family. I relate to all those things becuase I go to school, I learn, I am curious, and I always want to be with my family rather than be with my friends. I also relate to them because they go shooting and so do I. I target shoot rather than actually hit animals though. That is why TKAM reminds me of my present.

To Kill a Mockingbird reminds me of my future because it makes me think if maybe things will calm down some. Maybe all the horrible things that happen that you see on the news will end. Maybe they will find a cure for all the diseases that they have yet to find a cure for that is killing more and more people everyday. In the future we could have more good things happening rather than having all of those bad things happening that you hear on the news today. That is why TKAM reminds me of my future.
