“In a dark time, the eye begins to see,...” — Theodore Roethke
The Collected Poems of Theodore Roethke, 1966

I read in a book frederick douglas he was feel as a slave because was a era of darkness of slavary. he begain to understand hes human rights. hes eyes were open to what his rights were. for example he want to learn to read write and get his happines. as a human he wants freedom.

in the bible JOSEPH have 11 brothers and they were envious of hin. they were jeulous of hin because there father jacob treided joseph better. his dark time happen went his brothers sold hin to other in egypt. it was a dark time for his family. after many things happen and God gave joseph the give of interprete dreams the king of egypt give hin power. During this time, his family was having a hard time in their place. The dad sent some of his sons to egypt to find food and bring back another brother that was there. The brothers did not recognize Joseph but he recognized them. He gave them food and put gold and other things in their bag to show that they steal. It was a trick to make them come back to Egypt. When they came back they still did not recognize Joseph. he brought them in, treated them well and told them who he was. They were surprised and he told them about how his life had been. The brother who had treat him the worst cried. They treated him badly but he treated them good. Bad can not be paid with bad, only with good.
