Morte D'Arthur and Sir Gawain and the green knight
...ve in Finland for a year I ended up coming home after four months. Admitting you are wrong is often the hardest thing to do. In Morte D’Arthur, The bishops of Canterbury “said it was an insult and a shame that the realm should be governed by a boy who was not of royal blood.” Numerous times they tried to see if anyone else could pull the sword from the stone. With each try the bishops got angrier, because no one but Arthur was able to pull the sword from the stone” the angry barons put it off till the high feast of Easter, and again only Arthur could only draw the sword.” In the Bishops finally realized that Arthur was destined to be king, and they stopped testing that. They were finally able to admit that they were wrong. The bishops may have been wrong about Arthur, but the Green Knight was not wrong about Gawain. In Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Gawain had to admit his wrongdoings to the Green Knight” Now am I false indeed and from fear I have fallen into treachery.” Gawain had feelings for the Green Knight’s when she tried to seduce him. She had given a green scarf as a token of her affection, and Gawain took it and hid it from the Green Knight. The green knight confronted Gawain about the silk scarf. When confronted Gawain admits to everything, and wears his scarf and scar “as a token of fact that he was guilty of sin.” Gawain may wear a scarf as token of humility, but Sam must deal with his disability every day. In I Am Sam, the State Department of Child Welfare makes a mistake that they must later admit to. They try to take Sam’s daughter Lucy away from him, because he is mentally retarded. Because of Sam’s mental disabilities they think he will not be able to keep up with Lucy. Sam proves to them by being there to meet her when she is in foster care and in social services custody, and by finding people to help him take care of her and help her with schoolwork. He proves that he can provide for her. The State Defense tried all that they can to keep Lucy from being with her dad, but in the end they realize that Sam is the best thing for Lucy. The ended up admitting they were wrong and that Lucy should remain with Sam. My problems, however, were different than Sam’s problems. I also to admit I was wrong, probably more times than I would like to admit. I think the biggest time I had to admit I was wrong was when I was living in Finland. I thought I could be away from home for a year, no problem. It turns out that after four month...
