Compare And Contrast The Circuit And The Return
There are times in life when we feel the whole world is against us. We get in arguments, fight with siblings and parents, lose loved ones, and get rejected. “The Circuit” and “The Return” both express feelings of betrayal and hopelessness. Change happens all around us and can have an effect on us instantaneously. Sometimes, especially when we feel like we have no control over these changes, we lose faith. Similarly, when we encounter new places and settings, we oftentimes want to revert back to what we are accustomed to. In order to get past those times, we need help from ourselves, along with others to regain belief and trust in our own capabilities.
Change can be hard and we may not always have control over these changes. Usually, not having control over decisions in life can be aggravating. For example, in “The Circuit and in “The Return”, both characters face changes that they had not expected.

Sometimes we have full control over these changes while other times we feel as though we have no say in what is going on in our lives. In times when we feel we have no control, people tend to think the whole universe is against them and is just waiting to see them fail. Everyone has gray spots in their lives, and we can choose to grieve over them for days, months, and sometimes even years, or we can choose to move on and enjoy the company of those around us. Also, oftentimes, we want to go back to our old customs and lifestyle since that is what we are used to. It is crucial as a member of a society to learn and understand the importance of believing in ourselves, our capability to try new things and learning from our past
