Chapter 6 - The Present

Note Dillard's descriptions on page 79. She notices the sunset, pats the puppy. At the end of the page she says, "I am more alive than all the world."

Written response #9-- Personal response to Dillard's writing (250 words)

What does she mean by this? How can you become more "alive than all the world"?
