Cause and Effect

Unfortunately, Darth Vader's lightsaber broke in a battle with a Jedi rebel. Darth Vader, being the wise man that he is, pondered the influences for his weapon to suddenly break. Of the numerous influences of the incident, one might have been how Vader had not properly taken care of the lightsaber or he forgot to charge his lightsaber the night before. Another reason for the event could have been the fact that Darth Vader's lightsaber was overly used and too old to be used for combat. Darth Vader became very angry when his lightsaber broke. Or possibly, Darth Vader recieved a fatal blow to the legs. One can even say that preceding the broken lightsaber event, Darth Vader surrendered and turned back to the Light Side of the force. So as the reader can see, there can be various influences and outcomes to one certain event, not just one cause and one event.

Advocacy


Everyone appreciates a person who will be committed to perform a task. A committed person will leave the person who is counting on them at rest and peace. Assurance that the committed person will carry out their duty instills a sense of security. Darth Vader is the quintessential figure of commitment in the world. When Darth Vader knelt before Darth Sidious in the last film of Star Wars, Vader began his life of loyalty to Darth Sidious. Darth Vader


showed his unmoving commitment and loyalty for his master, Darth Sidious. Darth Sidious ordered Darth Vader to crush the rebellion against the empire; therefore, Darth Vader captured Princess Leia and Han Solo. When Darth Sidious ordered Darth Vader to bring Darth Vader's son, Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader obeyed. Darth Vader brought Luke Skywalker to Darth Sidious in order to turn Luke to the Dark Side. The unbreakable commitment Darth Vader had for Darth Sidious can teach everyone a lesson. Learning from Darth Vader can make one trustworthy and persistent when carrying out their duty.

Narrative

As I was standing in line waiting for the new Star Wars episode to come out, I began to notice that there were 400 other people out there also waiting. I began to wonder why 400 people would wait six weeks to see one movie. Then out of nowhere, this man in a Chewbacca costume came and hit me in the stomach. Suddenly, I began to think about middle school and how I was a victim of bullies. Nausea set in my stomach as I thought about how Big Mike used to stick my face in the school toilets. I felt as though I would soon throw up, but then I heard a geeky theater worker ask me if I had my ticket. Coming back to reality, I went inside to watch the sixth and final Star Wars movie. I spent the whole movie throwing up in the bathroom. Turns out, I waited six weeks for nothing.
