Tom's Childhood Decisions

When you are a child you must remember many things. These things may include a large array of thoughts or directions such as how to do long division, to always be a caring friend or even to let the dog out when he cries, but the most important thing to store away in your memory is to be who you are, for if you act as a phony as a child, you will end up one in your adulthood and you will not be happy. The decisions we make and ways we act when we are adolescents make up who we are no matter what. Whether you are one that inveigles others or you are a docile individual, it was all made up by experiences and decisions that occurred in your childhood. Tom Sawyer understands this quite well. He always makes the best of his childhood simply because of his fear of an adulthood of boredom. This will make Tom Sawyer an interesting person to be with and he will enjoy his life.

Tom’s fear is what made him leave to become a pirate. This is because he saw a glimpse of his future, and a life of routine and rules was not what Sawyer needed. He needed to be able to possess adventure and free will. Most importantly he needed fun, and if he kept on going with these exact routines he would grow up to be the average male. But Tom foresaw this crash course with daily boredom and successfully diverted the pain by making the decisions he did. He is now a wealthy child who won’t even need to get an occupation when he becomes old enough.

Not many people can do what Tom did, but when they do they are extremely happy with their life. They maintain sustaining memories of fond times and potentially even money. Of course, money is not the cure to sadness, but it definitely makes things easier. You may call one a fool for spending his life to do something adventurous or out of the ordinary, but you can’t call them a fool for spending their life doing something they love. And if they do succeed, open up your mind and believe that anything you dream of may come true if you are willing to do everything possible to get it.

Tom lived, in many people’s opinions, the right way, a way where he decided which road his life would take and how it would turn out. We as people must remember this and make our one chance at life the one we want. We must not get caught up with the daily routine, but live on our own spontaneous plans and wants, and by doing this we will not morph into some unwanted angist creature but into a frivolous person that we deserve and that the world deserves, too.

The ADVENTURES of Tom Sawyer

Adventure is an experience people long for. It causes some adrenaline components including excitement, danger, and sometimes even success. Isn’t that what people wish to do with their lives – something that is unique and something they will remember? Tom Sawyer definitely gets a large dose of this in his spontaneous life. Because of that, Tom enjoys life and its excitement that comes rushing on by. Simply, adventure is the thing that keeps us getting up in the morning.

Adventure is truly what keeps Tom going on a daily basis. Whenever he is without it he gets depressed and feels meaningless. Tom’s reason to leave his civilized life to become a pirate was because he felt like his life was a pain having to go to school and getting licked for wrong doings. Sawyer believed that life should be filled with joy, adventure, and free will and not of punishment, and when Tom, Huck, and Joe became pirates they fulfilled Tom’s dream and life was finally enjoyable.

Longings like this are usual with people across the globe. The cycle of an average person’s daily schedule often becomes dull and life seems like a task. At this point they call in for a life line and “spice up” their life even a little bit. The ways people do this may include vacations or activities outside their usual comfort zone, but either way it adds change and is wonderfully refreshing.

People need change in their lives and adventure is a beautiful way to make change happen. When you enjoy what you are doing you are overall a happier person, and with that the world will be a better place. Of course, we must keep our activities under control so it doesn’t turn negative, but still adventure is a great thing that is essential in most every human’s life.
