While this quote is proven true‚ within the passage‚ “Lot’s Wife” by Anna Akhmatova and in the poem‚ “Fable” by Janos Pilinszsky it also is brought on by negative effects. Lot’s wife gives into her temptation for one last look at her beloved memories and at the same time defying a direct order from God‚ similarly‚ the wolf from “Fable” is tempted to go inside a random house where he doesn’t‚ which puts him into a perilous situation. sgsdfgsdgfffgndsflkngkdsng;sd

Jenkins essay “‘Complete Freedom of Movement’: Video Games as Gendered Play Space” convinced me that 13 years ago there was gender segregation in the digital world of video games on who the games where made for‚ girls or boys. From my 15 year of experience playing hundreds of video games I never thought of games being gender biased till now.

The first mention of the main character does not

Since my comparison is between a video game and a fable‚ the story line will differ greatly‚ but‚ this doesn’t mean they will be unalike in all ways. They both have a similar context when dealing with your own problems. In the fable the young man prayed to the Lord stating “ I have too heavy of a cross to bear”.
