In Maria Cecilia’s post, The Ignition of Life, she gives us her reasoning and interpretation, about The Road. She writes her own opinion, and after she gives us the quote that goes with her interpretation. I think it is a very good idea, because it gives the reader time to re-think, and re-analyze what he/she thought at the beginning, and afterwards given proof, that the interpretation does make sense. Il probably use it as a technique for my next blog post (its not copying, its just using your resources well)
I also enjoyed when Maria Cecilia wrote,
"The element of fire can also be seen to an exception of the monochromatic life both characters are living. The dazzling colors of the flames and the warmth they produce reminds them that they are still alive and they have a purpose to fight for."
I really enjoyed how she interpreted the fire as a symbol of life and survivor. On the other hand, I disagree with her. I am not saying that she has it wrong (I’m not throwing her under the bus, don't worry) but I believe that it can also be interpreted as if the fire is burning everything that was alive, and not leaving anything behind, leaving only ashes, and dead souls, which I like to compare it to the father and son.
