Although i couldn't pick out a definite theme, I was able to pick out two theme, but i think the second one is more of a important theme. I think the theme of the story was that even though there are hard points in life but good things will come to those who wait and that bad things will come to those who do terrible things. At first I though the story’s theme was that good things will happen when you are kind and considerate of others. But that point of view was completely changed after Pitipiti didn’t accept the guinea fowl as her child and rather she put herself first. She was more thinking about how people would mock her. Also when she did accept the guinea fowl, she only thought about it would be better for her to have some company. And the ending of the story was rather superficial, who would stab themselves to save them?
I think I can connect with the story’s theme with myself because there are many days where it starts off with a terrible start and continues to be horrible. But at the end of the day, this one good thing happens that lightens my whole day. I can also connect with the fact that bad things come to those who do terrible things, because after saying or doing something horrible, either I receive a form of punishment for what I’ve done or the guilt bites at me. I think this story can even relate to Over the Edge that we watched a few days ago. Because Sam smuggled drugs and desired for money so badly, he was caught and put in jail.
