  2. Have you ever heard the saying: If you love something, let it go; if it comes back, it's yours? Robert Newton Peck describes just that in his story. While it is not the favored option, it is also a last resort, one might say, for survival. Robert in the story has to learn to live with losses in life, as well as some tragedies. Good job.
