Triumph in Adversity

This picture shows how the bird triumps over a snake. Snakes usually eat birds and demolish them, but this picture shows how the beautiful bird came out alive and has control over its own life. This represents Tillie, because she is the only one who can see that good will come out of her life and she sees the good in life. Beatrice has been through many hard times and trials in her life and she has just let them take over her and conquer her instead of learning from them and becoming someone new and better from them. She becomes way to bitter to allow good things to happen in her life and when good things come her way she somehow brings out the negative. To her everything has become negative and nothing is good anymore. Tillie however is a strong young girl who won't let anyone knock her down. She gets a lot of crap from others at her school, but she continues to go on with her life and becomes a fighter and sees the good in the smallest things, like the atom.
