Sunshine Comes After Rain ----After Reading Silas Marner by George Eliot Recently, I devoted myself to the reading of Silas Marner by George Eliot. George Eliot is one of the most wonderful writers in England in nineteen century. The novel I have read, Silas Marner, also the name of the rueful character, is clearly Eliot's best and one of the most effecting novels. It tells us a tender of sin, betrayal and love happened in rural 1800's England. Silas Marner was a common linen-weaver who was in a common town. He was living a miserable life. When he found that he was set up in a scheme made by his best friend, he was so astonished. But people there didn't believe in the law or judges but God. Just the “God” gave Marner a huge disaster. I really felt so sorry to Marner when I was reading about this. Because Marner believed in God, but his trust in God and in his friends had been broken. He moved to a small countryside named Raveloe, hoping life could get better there. He tried to help others, but his kindness didn't bring him any friend. Nobody believed him for he had an unknown past. He lived in a dark, loveless, hopeless world. People always talked about Marner. They knew he had a lot of money. Each time he got a new coin, he would save it up. His gold became a habit, a delight, a reason for living, almost a religion. He wasn't interested in the world outside his home. What a poor man! But his hidden coins were stolen by the squire's son, Dunstan Cass. Marner couldn't find out who was the thief. That made him extremely sad. He desperately wanted to get back the gold stolen. Now, miserable Marner had nothing to look forward to. He lost the most important thing that could guide him to the usual life. But gradually, his neighbors realized it was wrong to be suspicious of him because he didn't do anything guilty at all! They changed their opinion of him. Some people even began to help him in different ways. On a snowy evening, Marner found a child whose mother was dead crawling to his house. The poor little girl was as alone as Marner. He took a pity on the girl and decided to look after her, naming her Eppie. Since then, Marner and Eppie depended on each other. They came to love each other as father and daughter. Together they played in the fields, visited their neighbors. That was all he had never experienced. That was also the beginning of his luck. Neighbors were friendlier with him when they found Marner's love and kindness. He was no longer working and living only for his gold. He had to look outward. Eppie made his life full again. She was simply a present God gave to him! The girl grew up. When Marner knew who Eppie's father was, he didn't worry at all, for the girl had regarded Marner as her own father. Marner's life had become happy and sunny. He realized there must be a God of goodness in the world, for it was him who brought Eppie to Marner. Eppie gave him a chance to let him know what love was, and how to treat others sincerely. It's a sad story which has a happy ending. It tells us about the philosophy of life. That is very important to me, who am just growing up and whose outlook on life is just coming into being. After reading the story, I closed the book and got lost in thought. Nobody could live without money in our lives. But, having enough money doesn't mean having happiness. Love, the feeling of love, is more important. When Marner once owned gold, he didn't feel happy. He was crazy at that time. The happiest time was the days that Eppie brought to him. He didn't want Eppie to repeat his lonely, loveless and hopeless life. So he gave all he had to her. He loved her. Thus he felt happy. People showed no concern just because they didn't comprehend him at first. After Marner opened his mind and showed it to the others, he could make others be friends with him. So sometimes, when we feel lonely, try to think that did we show or give love to the others? If not, why and how can we expect receiving? Is the God good or bad? He changed Marner's life from happy to depressive, and then made it happy again. God is fair. Perhaps it is not the God's effect; it all depends on our attitude to life. Continue our faith and hope, the good life always coming after the bad one. Just like the sunshine always come after the rain. Marner finally received happiness after all the hardness, because he gave as much as he received. God helps those who help themselves. Don't be dejected and give up ourselves when facing censures. Otherwise Marner couldn’t have been happy at last, isn’t it?

Sunshine Comes After Rain
----After Reading Silas Marner by George Eliot
Recently, I devoted myself to the reading of Silas Marner by George Eliot. George Eliot is one of the most wonderful writers in England in nineteen century. The novel I have read, Silas Marner, also the name of the rueful character, is clearly Eliot's best and one of the most effecting novels. It tells us a tender of sin, betrayal and love happened in rural 1800's England.
Silas Marner was a common linen-weaver who was in a common town. He was living a miserable life. When he found that he was set up in a scheme made by his best friend, he was so astonished. But people there didn't believe in the law or judges but God. Just the “God” gave Marner a huge disaster.
I really felt so sorry to Marner when I was reading about this. Because Marner believed in God, but his trust in God and in his friends had been broken. He moved to a small countryside named Raveloe, hoping life could get better there. He tried to help others, but his kindness didn't bring him any friend. Nobody believed him for he had an unknown past. He lived in a dark, loveless, hopeless world.
People always talked about Marner. They knew he had a lot of money. Each time he got a new coin, he would save it up. His gold became a habit, a delight, a reason for living, almost a religion. He wasn't interested in the world outside his home. What a poor man!
But his hidden coins were stolen by the squire's son, Dunstan Cass. Marner couldn't find out who was the thief. That made him extremely sad. He desperately wanted to get back the gold stolen.
Now, miserable Marner had nothing to look forward to. He lost the most important thing that could guide him to the usual life. But gradually, his neighbors realized it was wrong to be suspicious of him because he didn't do anything guilty at all! They changed their opinion of him. Some people even began to help him in different ways.
On a snowy evening, Marner found a child whose mother was dead crawling to his house. The poor little girl was as alone as Marner. He took a pity on the girl and decided to look after her, naming her Eppie. Since then, Marner and Eppie depended on each other. They came to love each other as father and daughter. Together they played in the fields, visited their neighbors. That was all he had never experienced. That was also the beginning of his luck. Neighbors were friendlier with him when they found Marner's love and kindness. He was no longer working and living only for his gold. He had to look outward. Eppie made his life full again. She was simply a present God gave to him!
The girl grew up. When Marner knew who Eppie's father was, he didn't worry at all, for the girl had regarded Marner as her own father. Marner's life had become happy and sunny. He realized there must be a God of goodness in the world, for it was him who brought Eppie to Marner. Eppie gave him a chance to let him know what love was, and how to treat others sincerely.
It's a sad story which has a happy ending. It tells us about the philosophy of life. That is very important to me, who am just growing up and whose outlook on life is just coming into being.
After reading the story, I closed the book and got lost in thought. Nobody could live without money in our lives. But, having enough money doesn't mean having happiness. Love, the feeling of love, is more important. When Marner once owned gold, he didn't feel happy. He was crazy at that time. The happiest time was the days that Eppie brought to him. He didn't want Eppie to repeat his lonely, loveless and hopeless life. So he gave all he had to her. He loved her. Thus he felt happy.

So sometimes, when we feel lonely, try to think that did we show or give love to the others? If not, why and how can we expect receiving?
Is the God good or bad? He changed Marner's life from happy to depressive, and then made it happy again. God is fair. Perhaps it is not the God's effect; it all depends on our attitude to life. Continue our faith and hope, the good life always coming after the bad one. Just like the sunshine always come after the rain. Marner finally received happiness after all the hardness, because he gave as much as he received. God helps those who help themselves. Don't be dejected and give up ourselves when facing censures.
