Blog #1 Catastrophe of Success

I think that this essay was written extremely well. The ideas and analogies all focus around the downfall called success and explained just what aspect of success is so terrible. Speaking from a literary standpoint, the chronological order of the events explained and the individual meaning of those events are shown and illustrated very vividly. The "Catastrophe of Success" showed how repulsive the luxury that comes from success is and how the author realized how the comfort and service he received were actually taking the vivacity and purpose from his life. He finishes his piece off with giving the idea that life is only worth living when truly lived.
