A little late

This I posted late because when I first read this story I knew there was a lot to it but I didn't catch on but the more time I took to dwell on this passage the more I realized that this story is as deep as I thought it was and I related it to the onion story. The onion story is this short explanation of the history of the onion and where it came from and based solely upon the observations of one person who writes a poem about something that they realized about a fact of life that they decided to share with the world. Then when it was shared with all the world they found that there is more to the story than they let on. When we discussed the story of the onion in class in a dialogical manner everyone had a different viewpoint on it. Some thought it delve into the nature of humanity, others found a deep spirituality, and the select few found absolutely nothing. Just like C.S. Lewis decided to dialogue with himself on the essence of grief and at times he gets nothing out of his situation and at other times he is diving deep into the recesses of humanity and connecting it with spirituality. So the time I took to look at this story other than jumping in right away in a haste to be outright against this story allowed for me to take a chance on this story and fully understand what I was reading and one my response has been one of an open mind to what this story means on a deeper level and on a more surface level. That is how I was able to draw a connection between the poem of the history of the onion and the story by C.S. Lewis a grief observed.
