... s, he finds it more and more difficult to
resist the temptations of his sexual urges. He

sinful images at night. His urges grow and become

temptation and crosses that line into wretched
sinner. The next major step in Stephens
transformation is his visit to the prostitute. The

the truck and into the afternoon sunlight. I was
at Lehigh Gap, a drop-off point where the
Appalachian Trail meets highway 873 near Leighton.
A group of friends and I were being dropped off to
begin our three day journey to Eckville, another
drop-off point southwest of there. I turned to
face the trail and was surprised to see quite
possibly the steepest hill I had ever seen. As a
matter of pure coincidence, this was the summer of
1999, the year...

Robert Frost The Road Not Taken
710 words
The Road Not Taken is perhaps one of Robert
Frost's most famous poems. This poem deals with
the choices you have to make in life. Whether it's
what to wear in the morning or what to do with
your life, everyone makes choices. When you look
at this poem carefully, you realize Robert Frost
is choosing much more than what road to walk down.
He is making a lifelong decision. One of the
reasons I am drawn to this poem is the imagery. A
forest is a very quiet place that suits this poem
well. Being in a...
