Reading Notes - Divine Archer, Section A

I like how the story started off with the births. It would be cool to make the births of all four sons a really interesting experience. I could have the way they are born in different ways, with different events occurring during each birth and for Rama it would be a really out of the world birth because he is an avatar of a god so it has to be worthwhile. Along with that, all the four sons who get married on the same day, it could be a fast-forward story where we start off with their births and then go to their weddings and the same things occur as they're saying their vows or something along those lines. The exile is something I have already retold so I wouldn't really want to do that again, but I appreciated this versions take on it.

Growth Mindset: Cats

Using the randomizer I found a couple of cats that I really liked either because they were cute, funny, relatable, or all of the above! The first one was adorable and very accurate. I've found the more I write the better I get at it, especially when it comes to my personal statements. The second meme made me laugh. I've always been a goal setter and while it can be sad to miss your goal it's good to even get close to reaching it because there is always next time! Cat Meme 1 Cat Meme 2

Reading Notes: Narayan's Ramayana, Section C

This section picks up where B left off, Sita being captured by Ravana. I like that he came to her disguised as a hermit, it reminded me of when the evil queen came to snow white to get her to eat the poisoned apple. I think it would be really fun to make this into a sort of fairytale story, since Ravana can transfigure himself into different creatures. I could have him transform into a dragon and have Rama slay the "dragon" in order to get Sita back. Surgiva could be his trusted ally after finding Sita's jewelry. It could turn into an epic adventure where they cross an ocean, among other things in order to finally get to Sita. I really like this idea of a fairytale retelling of Rama saving Sita.
