Read the excerpt below from Chris Jacobs' reflective essay called "Everlasting Wannabe." As you read, think about his analogy and how it helps get his point across.
Much like the Gobstopper, I resorted to changing my color as time went by. In my red phase, I briefly joined a dodgeball league. When I was orange, I played Dungeons & Dragons and collected Magic: The Gathering. Yellow was all about doing thankless crew work in the school's small theater group, and green played out in endless rewinds of Smashing Pumpkins tapes, including a Nine Inch Nails concert where I got bit in the arm for blocking someone else's view. Blue was spent in horror-movie marathons with two girls who secretly hated each other, and the people that I ran with while purple have sworn me to a secrecy I will never betray.
What point does the analogy of the Gobstoppers help the writer make?
The Gobstoppers show how sweet-natured the writer is.
They indicate that much like Gobstoppers, change can cause you to be unhealthy.
The Gobstoppers show how candy can be used to persuade others to like you.
