Widen Your Imagination with Anne of Green Gables


          Every individual is a creator. He or she can make things out of his or her curiosity and creativity. Whether the result is good or not so good, an individual can create something. An artist has eminent masterpieces. A composer has wonderfully written songs. An author has best-selling novels.

         One particular character whom I met a few weeks ago is also a creator. She is a creator of endless imagination, incomparable optimism, and unbelievable shortcoming. She is Lucy Maud Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables.

          AnnE Shirley (she likes to emphasize that she has an E in her first name) is an orphan who happens to be adopted by Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert (aged siblings who live at Green Gables in Avonlea and who wish to adopt a boy but because of misunderstanding, they get Anne Shirley instead). She is a talkative, imaginative, clumsy, unconsciously sarcastic, vain, caring, likable (it depends on the situation), and red-haired girl. 

           Albeit Anne has either good or not so good (again, based on the situation) description, you can't stop but fall in love with her. I do love her. I love her because of her personality. She may be talkative but every word she speaks shows genuineness. She may be imaginative but she makes you believe that what you see is only the small portion of what you really want to see. She may be clumsy but she teaches you to get up and learn from your mistakes. 

            Anne creates never ending dreams, goals, and imagination. How about you? What's your creation?

  1. Wonderful post, Jadis! I agree with the fact that everyone has their own talents! I like to sing, dance, and write, but the list goes on! How about you?

  2. Hi, Saanvi! Well, I can't say if it's MY talent but I am fond of music (I just don't know if music is fond of me) so I like singing and dancing.

    Anyway, thanks for paying a visit here in my library. Hope this won't be the last. 😊❤📚
