Utnapishtim lives in an island across a sea. His living situation symbolizes his isolation from society. He is different than everyone else G grieves too. Instead of trying to talk sense into him, U. listens and G is able to talk to release grief and sorrow instead of fighting for his friend's name.]]> 2018-01-03 13:46:15 UTC https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218483483 https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218483582 "I think love's kiss kills our heart of flesh./ It is the only way to eternal life,/ Which should be unbearable if lived/ Among the dying flowers/ And the shrieking farewells/Of the overstretched arms of our spoiled hope.]]> 2018-01-03 13:46:42 UTC https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218483582 https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218483599 My friend has died so many times in me,/ And yet he seems so alive,/Like a younger brother,/Then suddenly like a soft tissue,/A dried leaf.]]> 2018-01-03 13:46:45 UTC https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218483599 https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218483662 Utnapishtim

Gilgamesh goes through great extent to meet U. The geography in the book constantly creates challenges for G. in his journey. He must cross deserts, mountains, and the sea of death. The sea is the last remaining barrier to his reward, in this case, Utnapishtim's hospitality. Rightly named, the sea of death must be crossed in a strategy much like how life must be made of the correct decisions in a strategy to help live. ]]> 2018-01-03 13:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218484235 https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218484463 Gilgamesh

This story of Ea talking to Utnapishtim can be directly connect in countless similarities to the story of Noah and his ark. In this case Ea, represents God who speaks to Noah or Utnapishtim. The boat resembles the ark and in both stories they bring on to the ship their family and the seeds of living creatures.]]> 2018-01-03 13:54:16 UTC https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218485742 https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218486518 Time and space were uneventful now./Nothing inclined him to impatience]]> 2018-01-03 13:56:27 UTC https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218486518 https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218486543 "Hell is the everlasting gift/ of His presence/ To the lonely heart who is  longing/ Amidst perishing phantoms and doesn't care/ To find immortality..."]]> 2018-01-03 13:56:32 UTC https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218486543 https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218486688 Ea

This story of a serpent sabotaging a plan can be related to the story of Adam and Eve. The fact that a serpent steals a plant is not directly stated in the other story. However, the serpent does cause a permanent problem for the characters. In this case, G.'s only solution to his problem is now gone. ]]> 2018-01-03 14:11:26 UTC https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218491772 https://padlet.com/s9800165/gctzdpc1awqx/wish/218491864 Then he relaxed, as if there were no use/ In this reflection.

Then after the flood Ishtar one of the gods who wanted it then comes to regret the flood because so many people died.
