Themes are something present in everyone’s life. Some don’t apply to you, but others do. From the works we have studied this year, the themes I have chosen to include love has sacrifices, from Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare, the theme of grief in Red Cloud’s speech, and the role of gender in A Lamb to The Slaughter by Roald Dahl. First off, love has sacrifices is an easy theme and is stated in Romeo and Juliet. Romeo and Juliet are a pair of star-crossed lovers who are in a forbidden relationship by their warring families.
The themes are forgiveness, lost dreams, and how children can sometimes be more mature than the adults and parents. Forgiveness is a huge theme in the novel because Jeanette shows that no matter how much her parents put her through, she is able to overcome the hardships and chase her dreams without them. When she eventually accomplishes this, she’s still there to help and care for her parents. She is able to forgive them for everything in the end. The next theme is lost dreams.

This underlying theme significantly contributes to the overall storyline providing a unique characterization to each character, allowing the reader to really experience the character’s emotional development through the novel. The theme of love can be identified from the very beginning of the novel.
This theme is related to the world because some people are so close to ending their lives that their friends are the reason why they saved themselves. Their friends end up saving their lives and taking them out of killing themselves. This theme helps people get through their lives like George and Lennie get through their lives together
Theme is the message about life or human nature that is “the focus” in the story that the writer tells ( Glossary of Literary Terms 3). A theme in this story would be “Love and Blindness”. This falls under the theme category because it is saying love itself changes the way you are as a person but it also has its blindness. The “blindness” is not so much of not being able to see them physically but how they truly are as a person. A person can be very depressing, arrogant, or even abusive but the person in love will see past it hence the term blind.
