Cause and effect

Author's note: I was reading Touching Spirit Bear. This is easily one of the most important events in the story since it helped him heal.

One of the most major events was the mauling. Cole had attacked the bear out of anger and fear since the bear wasn’t afraid of him. When the bear got attacked it attacked back for defense and then Cole was defenseless against it. After being attacked he was laying on the floor and while that happened he thought about himself.

The cause which made the bear attack Cole was that Cole attacked it. After the attack Cole was laying on the floor and thinking about himself. He had thought about everything and that made him more understanding  and changed his direction towards anger to the opposite way. Since that happened Cole wanted to stay on the Island and get better. If the mauling had never happened, Cole would have never changed his direction from anger. He would have stayed the way he was and just grown worse. The event was a major part in Cole emotions. The mauling might have done bad to his body but did good for his mind.
