Chronological Order

  Through the story, ''There Will Come Soft Rains'', we could observe a series of events that had happened on August 4, 2026-- the extinction of humans. Although the clock reminded for waking up and repeated for perfect breakfast with delicious toasts, eggs, bacons, and coffees, there is still no responses. After sensing the time, the robots cleaned up the food and the entire house. It's almost noon, a dog who survived the nuclear war seeking for signs of lives in the house. After it totally despaired for finding nothing, it eventually turned resentful and crazy, ended its life with chagrin. Soon, the house involved by the fire, and tried everything to save itself, it still got blazed and exploded into ashes. Just like the poem that study ceiling said: '' And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn/ Would scarcely know that we were gone.'' Since people were greedy, they lose what they own before, and lost the dreams that they could create in the future. I think that the author is trying to tell us the state of content is significance, since greedy is vanity. We should banish greedy from money, from power, and from victories. One false step brings everlasting grief. The only thing that still exist in the world was the forever regretful memory.
