The theme of Saving Grace is love is hard and can get you into sticky situations. The theme is important because it communicates the way Evie feels and what she is going through. In Saving Grace Evie loves Brianna and risks getting caught by the cops and going to jail just to be with her baby. She also ran away from the comfort of her home just to be with Justin and Brianna. She risked Justin, who was the one driving her to Montreal just to be with her baby. In Evie’s case love was very hard for her because she loves Brianna but it is very risky to keep her and it got her into a situation whereby she did not have enough things to care for her baby and her baby becomes sick and she does not know what to do.
...gs. One of these things is that no matter what happens, there is always a positive outcome available, even if we need to work to find it. Remembering this theme will remind me that no matter how bleak things look, there is always a way for things to get better. It will also encourage me to work harder to discover this way, which will encourage me to work harder even in normal situations.

In To Kill a Mockingbird, the theme plays an important role during the course of the novel. Theme is a central idea in a work of literature that contains more than one word.

That is the purpose the playwright wrote it to make you feel something or provoke something inside of you while reading or watching it. John Pielmeier really did provoke something inside of me while reading Agnes of God. I consider myself to be someone with a stable faith, someone who tries her best with her faith but maybe not always at 100%. As I was reading this play I was thinking a lot of my old school and all the sisters that I used to know. Specifically I was thinking of this one sister that one time in a moment of vulnerability was talking to me about how she will always want to have a child of her own even though she
Just Mercy documents the incredible and heart wrenching experiences of Equal Justice Initiative founder and attorney extraordinaire, Bryan Stevenson. Stevenson’s niche is a unique and unexpected focus for a lawyer. He works with people that society often wrongfully characterizes as “criminals” that are usually either on death row or condemned to life in prison. Before seeing a segment of Opera’s interview with Stevenson, and reading this book, I couldn’t understand what typically motivates a lawyer to want to protect the rights of criminals and the un-just. In fact, one of Stevenson’s early mentors, Steve Bright, explained the, “‘opportunity’ isn’t necessarily the first word people think of when they think about doing work with us [Southern Prisoners Defense Committee],” because, “they live[ed] kind of simply, and the hours are pretty insane,” (Stevenson 2014, 6). However, a young Stevenson was undeterred by this claim, and went on to work some incredible cases, and exonerate many innocent and suffering individuals.
The theme was created by the characters personalities and actions. When John Proctor placed his life on the line just so his name will be cleaned, that was a very noble and prideful action to do. Pride was also known when Danforth did not want to admit he was wrong for the people that he had placed into the jail. Both men did not was to blacken their name but went different ways about it. Goody Proctor and Rev. Parris both lied in court by keeping something that would make their families look bad. They both did it for the love they have, but Goody Proctor wanted to save her husbands while Rev. Parris just wanted to save his own
Theme is the subject of talk, a topic, or morals that the author is trying to get readers to comprehend. When reading an excerpt, the theme is not directly stated in the text, so you must dig deeper into the context to understand the matter trying to be portrayed. In both Angela's Ashes and The Street, we can distinguish a like theme of struggling through life’s complications. After reading the two different stories, we could select the theme from using character, events, and the setting.
One example of the theme occurs when the author first introduces the story. “But the summer I was 9 years old, the town I had always loved morphed into a beautifully heartbreaking and complicated place.” (pg. 1). The author is saying that the year she turned nine, she found out something about her town that broke her heart and changed the way she saw it. This quote is important because it supports the theme. It shows that now she is older she has learned something about her town that made her wiser than when she was younger. She is now more informed because the new information changed her and caused her to begin to mature.
Theme plays a very important part in this short story. Theme is the idea of a literary work abstracted from its details of language, character and action. The great example of theme that is evident throughout the entire short story is the duty to perform certain acts.

“It Alex doesn’t come I’ll need to generate a plan of my own”(Oliver 422). This shows the theme because she would have never wanted to fall in love with a guy even after she was cured but she did anyways because she loved him. This is important because, if she had never fallen in love with Alex, none of this would have happened and she would have gotten cured without worrying about what Alex is doing and whether he will come to her when she’s being cured.
In one’s traditional faith it was obvious total reliance reverence God. God’s grace in traditional faith is considered history of what one believed about God. God’s grace governed much of the Old Testament, however, grace is not obviously seen, but described. For example, Psalms 78: 38, “But He, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity. And did not destroy them, yes many a time He turned His anger away, and did not stir up all His wrath.” Grace is a description of the character of God, which is displayed by His gifts to men. God is a God of grace, and He desires to make this known not only to men, but also to the angelic host.
