JOURNAL TOPIC: ["Just the Way You Are" by Billy Joel; "Just the Way You Are" performed by Diana Krall]
The French novelist Jean Baptiste Alphonse Karr wrote (in French), "The
more things change the more they stay the same." Evaluate this idea in
terms of a character you've recently read or written. To what extent
does the character's transformation involve new traits/information, and
to what extent does the process magnify qualities that were there all
along? Apply this thinking to a person you know in real life; how has
this person changed as a result of his/her learning? Do you think the
change is a product of qualities that were there all along or do you see
something new?
