“I am the only being” by Emily Bronte is a statement of her own personal experience of life. She spent most of her life with her sisters. The sisters had little social life. Emily did not express her feeling. Life, too, did not treat her kindly. “I am the only being” is an expression of grief and loneliness. She thinks that she is the only being in the world whose life dose not mean anything to anybody. During eighteen years of her life she had met neither love nor friendship. Her entire life has been dull and lonely. At times she could not bear the burden of his gloomy life and longed for love, but never found it. Her experience has taught her that human beings are mean, selfish and insincere. They do not care for truth, love and affection. They have no use for finer values of life. The level to which mankind has sunk grieves her. Then she looks into her own heart and is shocked to realize that she, too is hollow and selfish.View more random threads:
