Merida and her fate.

     Merida, the main character of the movie "Brave" is a princess and her mother wants her to become a perfect princess. She controls every moment of her life. However, Merida wants to not be a perfect princess but a girl that is free. She wants to explore and run around the forest, shooting arrows. She and her mother has a fight about marrige and she met the wisps. They lead her to the old cottage where the witch lives, and she asked for her to change her mother's mind about marrige. The witch gave her a spell that turned her mother into a bear. Merida learns that she has to find our fate and she needs a way to change her mother back. I think the way she finds her fate is by spending quality time with her mother and she needs to realize that she is responsible for turning her mother into a bear.
     First in the scene where Merida and her mother catches fish, they both realize that they can have fun spending time with each other. The mother daughter relation ship starts to show in this time. They stary to understand and care for each other. This is where they realize that they can have a good time so the reason why a realationship is needed is for her to get friendly with her mother to find her fate. that is why they need to have quality time.
     She has to learn to feel sorry for her mother. Merida kept on saying that the reason why her mother turned into a bear is the witch's fault. However, the scene where she finds out only sewing back the tapestry is not the way, she feels sorry and she feels love. If she did not feel sorry, they would have never changed. So she needs to feel sorry.
     I belive that Merida's fate is that she needs to have quality time with her mother and she needs to feel sorry to become more friendly with her mother. Thank you for reading my essay.
