Light In The Dark

I believe that Billy is coming to realize that he can’t change much of his life, although he may want to, I think he found himself trapped in destiny. “Among the things Billy Pilgrim could not change were the past, the present, and the future.” (Slaughterhouse-five pg 60) when you can’t change your fate, is because of destiny, and technically speaking if there is such thing as destiny you could sit in a chair waiting for life to happen. I do not understand why Billy has a problem with destiny, “GOD GRANT ME THE SERENTY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANE, COURGAE TO CHANEGE THE THINGS I CAN, AND WISDON ALWAYS TO TELL ME THE DIFFERENCE.” (Slaughterhouse five pg 60) as the poster in his office says. He obviously needs help to deal with what is happening to him and I would imagine is a very difficult life. Imagine hoping around from moment to moment I would need COURAGE or WISDOM to know how to handle all the things I learn from time traveling. Billy needs sleeping, according to his doctor and a massager for his back, I would probably need one too if I had to relive the worst moments in my life, walking up in a different place and trying to figure out what year you are how old. Some people could say that, time traveling or hoping is good but the more I read this book, the more I want to freeze time and stay as I am.
Even though Billy is going through difficult times, Vonnegut makes you laugh by giving to the book good humor. ““Billy found the after noon stingingly exciting. There was so much to see-dragon’s teeth, killing machines, corpses with bare feet that we blue ivory. So it goes.” (Slaughterhouse-five pg 65) as I read this I felt guilty because when you talk about death is not very normal to laugh but the sarcasm of stingingly exiting, made me laugh very hard. Even in the darkest time, you can find light that is what my dad says to me when I cry or feel sad there is always a positive side of life or you can make it positive.
