 * __The "Truth" of Mythology.__

This states the "truth" that mythology with holds. First of all, mythology does tell how the creation events in nature occured. An example is how the rivers were created. Some cultures say it was a giant snake curving its way around and in doing that it made the ditches that later filled with water to become rivers. Also mythology shows truth when it tells stories about the gods. In Greese they believed all gods to be powerful beings that could travel to Earth when thet wanted to. This can compare to some religons that have arroused in modern day. Another reason that mythology has truth in is the way it connects animals to humans. All things have seemed to evolve from another thing, or nature. In conclusion, that is the "truth" in mythology.


 * __The "Truth" of Fear__**
 * 1/28/08**

The "truth" of fear can be showen in many differant ways. In the book, " __The Lord of the Flies"__, the author shows normal everyday fear in the characters he creates. Like eventually the boys begin to fear that they may never be rescued. But also the boys show no concern of fear of death, or of their unhealthy states. They care more about having a nice place to live, the finest food to eat, and being top in their society. Also while on their island they begin their own little wars, where some of the the boys do fall victim too. All the while they are all slowly losing themselves to the fear of not being the leader, at the utmost position, in their "tribes". The boys also experience fear of a so called "beast". The boys' imagination gets the best of them while their creating their new identies. But their fear is only of themselves, so to cope with that they create a "beast" that they believe they can conquere, but in truth, only in their hearts and minds. To conclude, the "truth" about fear is a complicated topic but when you really think about it, it's only yourself, holding you back.
