Weekly Summary: Oliver's life seemed to get a little better but his past still haunted him.
Weekly Thought: For this blog, I won't be talking about Oliver but instead I will talk about Rose, a penniless girl, and Harry, a wealthy guy. What made me decide to talk about them was because in one event Harry ask Rose to marry him, but Sadly, Rose refused. This was an interesting event because it dealt with how love connected with social status in the novel. During the Victorian Age, marriage was mostly for economic reasons. In addition, people married others in their same social class. Therefore Rose couldn't marry Harry. She's afraid she couldn't give him an economically profitable and socially acceptable marriage. However, i think this is stupid. I know she loved him but because of her social status, she don't want to. It doesn't matter who you are and where you're from. If you truly love someone, then nothing matters. In my opinnion, love is a powerful force in the world, and also it's what makes us human. If a couple really love eachother then nothing can stop them from loving eachother. Without love, the world is nothing. If a person love someone really much, nothing can break that bond and i mean NOTHING can break it.
