"A Chase" Reaction

The essay story by Annie Dillard was one of the stories I can mostly relate to. In this story she writes about when she was a kid and she was almost one of the boys. She remembers doing all the things usually boys do like playing football and making pranks. She writes about one time that she had an impact in her life. This particular day she was hanging around with the boys and throwing snow balls at some of the cars passing by. One of the snow balls hit the windshield of a car and a man came out and started to chase her and another boy. I can just imagine how scared she most of felt. When the man finally catches up with her he just simply walked away. I remember things similar to this happen to me when i was younger and in my case I learned to never do it again, but I felt really excited at the same time. Doing something dangerous almost brought me to an other extend of life. In the story she mention that if she were to die she would die happy. In her case the situation felt like a rush and she liked it.
