In Response to Kyley's Free Write, Week 12:
How odd. It's an interesting situation, of course, there is always the tired picking on of Christians and how they're hypocritical--that they're supposed to be Godly in their approach to others but tend to be cold and judgemental, I feel its common knowledge. I think it was a good idea to address the woman's reasons why, primarily her children, which makes her more reasonable and tolerable for her she reacts, but I would have liked to see some shame in her reaction--some small moment that made her realize that how she was behaving was not in the Christian way. There seems to be no small turn in this, other than the man simply picks up and leaves. I do like the ending though. I myself was wonder, where was the wine? It's sad to portray the man as only being good enough to make children glare. I feel like the characters in the piece are very stagnant. Search deeper for some traits within them, perhaps portray them in direct interaction and the rest can come with it. I hope this made sense--I'm so tired I don't know what I am saying.
