ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST.
Prompt: Write a personal narrative essay in which you select a verse from The Dhammapada that applies to an experience or situation from which you learned something.

For example, the verse “He who walks in the company of fools suffers a long way; company with fools, as with an enemy, is always painful; company with the wise is pleasure, like meeting with kinsfolk” might remind you of an experience where you learned a lesson about the meaning of friendship.

Step 2: Find a verse from The Dhammapada.

Imagine you have chosen this verse:

If you see a man who shows you what is to be avoided, who administers reproofs, and is intelligent, follow that wise man as you would one who tells of hidden treasures; it will be better, not worse, for him who follows him.

When you have found the verse you intend to use, record it so that you can reference it later.

Step 3: Rewrite the verse in your own words.

Next, take a moment to rewrite, or summarize, the verse in your own words. Your summary does not need to be poetic or polished; the goal here is to put the verse into your own words so that you can easily connect this wisdom to the experiences you have had in your own life. Here is an example:

You will be better off if you follow the advice and instruction of intelligent people.

Step 4: Brainstorm life events that helped you learn this lesson.

Next, consider events or experiences from your own life that helped you learn the life lesson you have just summarized. Try to come up with three or four events or experiences and then summarize them in one to two sentences each.
