Ihave studied many times
the marble which was chiseled for me--
a boat with a furled sail at rest in a harbor.
in truth it pictures not my destination
but my life.
for love was offered me and i shrank from its disillusionment;
sorrow knocked at my door, but i was afraid;
ambition called to me, but i dreaded the chances.
yet all the while i hungered for meaning in my life.
and now i know that we must lift the sail
and catch the winds of destiny
wherever they drive the boat.
to put meaning in one's life may end in madness,
but life without meaning is the torture
of restlessness and vague desire--
it is a boat longing for the sea and yet afraid.
which lines in the poem suggest that finding meaning in one's life can be very dangerous?
a) "a boat with a furled sail at rest in a harbor."
b) "to put meaning in one's life may end in "
c) "yet all the while i hungered for meaning in my life."
eliminate
d) "we must lift the "

The greatest gift the sumerians gave the world was the invention of writing. the sumerians were wealthy people. they needed some way to keep track of what they owned. they began drawing pictures. they used a reed as a pen. they drew on soft pieces of clay. the soft clay was then dried in the sun. the tablet became a permanent record. later, the sumerian drawings changed into wedge-shaped symbols. this kind of writing is called cuneiform. by putting symbols together, the sumerians could write entire sentences.
