To my
surprise, a classmate presented me with a SpongeBob flashlight. It
happened during a writing workshop. Why SpongeBob? The cartoon character
is mentioned in a novel that I am writing.
After returning home, I aimed the flashlight at the head of Sir Thomas More. He's depicted in a painting inside my office.
More's face reveals a man of conviction. He refused to swear an oath of
supremacy to King Henry VIII. Because of More's steadfastness, the king
ordered Moore's death. Some people make lasting and positive impressions. Thomas More reminded me about the importance of following one's conscience. My classmate demonstrated the impact of thoughtfulness.
Spongebob will occupy a spot on my bookshelf.
