Marigolds connections

1. In the story Marigolds, it states that “Surely there must have been lush green lawns and paved streets under leafy shade trees somewhere in town; but memory is an abstract painting—it does not present things as they are, but rather as they feel.” Sometimes when I remember back in time, I get a lot of how it felt. I sometimes want to have those days again. Also, sometimes I have feelings for something which may not be the same with what it is.
2. Lizabeth destroyed Lottie’s garden of Marigolds. She later finds out that she was being watched. I once did something bad on the elevator but it didn’t know that there was a CCTV installed in the elevator.
3. Joey, Lizabeth, and other kids, did bad stuff by throwing rocks onto Lottie’s garden. I at times threw eggs out of the window in means to hit someone outside. Also I did bad stuff with my friends in the condominium.
4. The narrator states that she feels nostalgia when it come to remembering the marigolds. I get a bit of nostalgia when I remember about things of eh past.
5. I states that Lizabeth and Joey were youngsters of the family while the rest were sent to marriage. From 3rd grade, I was alone with my parents while my sisters were gone to university.
6. Lizabeth felt scared when she watched her parents argue and her dad cry. I was in fear too when my parents wee fighting.
