The silliness killed the man

based on "To build a fire"

Based on this history we can critical several features of being human. Human nature being born with certain ways of thinking that makes us distinguishes from each other. In this story other than survival, highlights the human being as arrogant and selfish. It shows how we act when we are in trouble, thinking only of ourselves individually.
I've never had a situation like this and nether identify myself with this story but I can usually identify situations of life and people with whom one associates. We live in a world where people when are confronted with a problem "for his side pull" and don’t care the other peoples. A scene like this is when the man wants to kill the dog for a well for himself. On the other side in this world is much hubris and arrogance of the people, although this is seen in the labor field. Many people to achieve a goal in their lives have the need to feel better than others in order to feel better about himself. This is contrasted in the story in the scene where that man knew he had to return, but instead he wanted to continue his march.
In general, this story of survival helps as people us do a self-criticism to see if we are operating as did this man.

When the Cold Attacks...

Two years ago I had the opportunity to travel to Europe in March, which is extremely cold, especially in the north of Spain, which I visit. It was my first experience at low temperatures, but I recently had the opportunity to visit places colder, but until then I had never had the chance. Honestly when I read the story To Build a Fire I identified a lot with the dog, this may sound funny, but it was so. My parents insisted that we had to visit all the places they wanted to see despite the cold it was, it seemed as if they didn’t felt and they were not aware of the temperature.

We were bundled up but we were on the coast next to the beaches where the wind was horrible. I had to follow them everywhere, because I had no other choice (which I thank them today, because I enjoyed it) and at times when we found heating finally, they decided to continue with our journey. They were like the man, which only thought about to arrive to the camp. My parents just wanted to visit all the castles, museums, gardens, and all that stuff. Thankfully we didn’t have to build a fire to find heat that is a big difference, but to me is a little bit similar haha! When we were in the car, we had heat, and we have to put out our jackets, but when we wanted to see something we had to stop, put our jackets, get out of the car and again was the cold on our bodies. Obviously I can’t compare this experience with the terrible story of To Build a Fire but I also had to fight against the cold like the characters in the story.
