The Rockpile reflection

     The Rockpile express why rules are important. Rules are in place for protection. It also mentions peer pressure. Roy fell for peer pressure by running to be with his friends when his parents said no.  Roy was wounded and this teaches one to not disobey authority because there will be consequences.
     All actions come with consequences. Another theme was treatment acquired by stepparents.  Sometimes spoiling your child cause rebellion because of them thinking they can obtain everything they desire despite the consequence.  The desire for freedom causes one to be rebellious.

The worn path reflection

     Phoenix was a fearless black woman. She was also very selfless. Phoenix bravely took a stroll to aid her little grandson.  This story teaches one a lot about character.  This story was also a good motivator to keep being persistent.
     Although she was tempted to stop, she kept moving on. She kept at it until she arrived to her destination. It is amazing that a old woman could walk that far without assistance. A inspirational and touching way of the beauty of being persistent.
