1987 Essay Exam

     Easy or Not 

      George Eliot uses visual words to show readers the chang of what leisure has become in her view "Old Leisure." She began her work by telling you that everything is being rushed, her society is getting lazy and she doesn't like it  and make there lives easier not knowing that you can actually enjoy your life with the job that you have.

     Her point of everything being rushed was that the people are wanting everything to be done and they wont have to do anything. People didnt relize that working can make you do your daily work-out. In other words the people want to invent things for the work can be easy. For example, people that in her time dont want to do much they just wanted an easy life for they can be happy. The people want thing to be invented quick.

     People may love what they do... For example, she says something about a man that wakes up in the morning and wanting to go to work because he like the smell of apricots in the morning. "He takes pleasure in the thing around him instead of wanting more or something better. He is never rushing himself because he loves what he does for living. He is taking his life very slow.

      The society is getting very lazy they don't want to do much cause they are not willing to give the effort to try things without getting help. She dislikes that everyone is not willing to do their part in the community or in there lives. They just want the easy way out and not all the time the easy way out is a good thing cause it doesn't work. Her society sees everything being done for them for they don't have to do much.

      As a result she dislike and thinks it wrong to take the easy way out. It will not give you all the same results then doing it the old fashion way.
