This quote also show how David cannot express himself because he hides what could be considered to be a talent or power, and he has to live with that part of him hidden and fearing about others finding out about it. Therefore, the quote supports the fact that difference is an important in our lives as it suggests that David feels it is his fault that he is different while his telepathy could be considered a
As correlated with the 23rd Psalm, David also showed his good and difficult experience when he wrote the 27th Psalm. Through this Psalm, David has presented a number of literary devices; such as use of questions, metaphor, imagery and symbolism. Verse one starts “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” Here, David put forward two similar questions which relates to the statements presented before them.

The act of free will is displayed several times throughout the story. For example, when the story starts destruction had already chosen at this point to walk away from all his responsibilities.

This means going through life when faced with decisions, He does interfere or enforce a predisposed plan upon an individual. Reasoning for this stems from personal everyday actions. Upon waking up, there are many decisions that can be made, all of which can slightly alter the future, yet its feels as though there is no divine power at work when making one of these decisions.
