Different Perspective of Life
As a man grows old, he has a different perspective of life than a younger man does. In the short story, " A Clean, Well-Lighted Place," written by Ernest Hemingway, the two waiters (one younger and the other older) have different perspective of life and have a different attitude towards the old man. The older waiter understands what the old man is going through but not the younger waiter and from that they have their different perspective of life. ... The older waiter and the younger waiter have different perspective of life since their attitudes are different from each other. The older waiter sees his life as nothing and he realizes that the world is " nada y pues nada" (45). ... As for the younger waiter he has his whole life ahead of him. He sees life as, "all confidence." The author, Ernest Hemingway, makes it comprehensible the different perspective each waiter has and their different attitude towards the old man.
