No knowledge can be made on a thing that cannot be thought as "part, whole, equivalence, uniqueness, limit, link, influence, sensation, origin, derivative, rule, condition, and fulfillment." Why?

I am looking for a short story I read in the ninth grade. If I remember correctly, the Grim Reaper approaches a worker in the fields. The worker is terrifed that is he going to die. The story ends by the Grim Reaper saying he is in fact looking for the worker's boss, not the worker. I think this story was featured in a Norton Anthology reader. It would most likely be British literature.

Look back on time with kindly eyes,
He doubtless did his best;
How softly sinks his trembling sun
In human nature's west!

Does this poem mean that "everything happens for a reason"?
If not then does anyone know of a poem with that meaning in the "Time and Eternity" section of her collection?


THANKS!

All I can remember is I loved them and they talked very strange. It seems when I find some online now, they have modernized the words and I'd like to read what my mom read. I don't want to reference to the Disney movie, I'd like to see or read a section from ones produced when my mom could have easily found these books and read them to me in the 1950's, Any literary help here, please don't guess to get points, unless you think you really have something to contribute, I just need a good strong lead in where to search and what search words and ?? all I have is my child's eye view, but I have a great memory .

Similarities and differences between the two? I'm finding it hard to find anything that I can actually comprehend, so can someone explain it to me in simpler terms? Thanks!

the mentor

used to feel completely useless
like the appendix in your gut
and now I fake my confidence
trying to make my dreams come true
supposing age may do some good
making bad days a tad shorter
friends a bit less interesting
and your memories less fonder.

there was a time when I felt that
I needed to have many friends
now realizing that people are
little more than large distractions
I feel disappointed in them
and I see why you chose just one
that doesn’t mean we can’t be friends!

you can be my humble mentor
teach me how to really appeal
after conquering the aisle
we’ll talk about our marriages
entwined with different people
but devoted to the same thought
and I’ll repay in gratitude
you’re not getting anything more.

Even when an answer seems good, I have to check out the person's profile to see what kind of person they are. If they have a high best answer, or everything's private and they seem detached, I'll be turned off from picking their answer as best. But if someone seals the deal by having something funny or honest in their profile, I feel a bit guilty because it might not technically have been the best answer. I guess I lean towards answers that seem more from the heart.

So what do you guys think? Are profiles a factor? Or do you just go with the answer?

I'm shooting a wedding next weekend and would say I am an intermediate level photographer. The couple has arranged for fireworks and want a shot of them with the firworks in the background. Can anyone offer advice on how to best expose this? Would it be easier to shoot them separately and meld them together in Photoshop?
