Letter 30

This week I chose to write about letter 30. I thought that this letter was very interesting and discussed some very interesting topics. Although I still find the chapters to be a little hard to follow, there were some viable points that Lewis made. One quote that especially caught my eye was on page 169. The quote states the following, "Thus in birth the blood and pain are real, the rejoicing a mere subjective point of view: in death, the terror and ugliness reveal what death really means. The hatefulness of a hated person is real- in hatred you see mean as they are, you are disillusioned..." The quote goes on to talk about love, war, poverty and other very important issues. I really liked this quote because it discusses how being 'real' can have many different interpretations. Overall I really liked this chapter out of the assigned reading.
