Emotions of negativity trail with Gregor Samsa in The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka, as Gregor’s body slowly transforms into a bug-like body size of a human; resulting in undesired “torture” from his family and himself. Although change isn't always followed with horrid results, it's hard to adjust to, since pain, suffrage and misunderstandings create obstacles.
Discomforts of a specific situation leads to pain- state of being hurt- when something in movement is not welcomed. To feel loved is necessary in a human-being’s life; once loneliness wraps around one’s life, things begin to shift; and others surrounding one, gradually begins to be affected.

Although change is inevitable and challenging, there are two trails: good change and bad change. Whichever path you confront, positive or negative outcomes will always tag along with the transformations that will affect one’s life. In, The Bully, by James Blasingame, Darrell Mercer is a fifteen year old boy, who has moved to Guion Bluford High School, faces “humiliations, from eating lunch alone to being mocked in the locker room for his arrested physical development”; begins to change as he makes new friends and is succeeding in school.

For instance, in LGBT Rights and State Laws, from opposing viewpoints in context, it states, “The Public Facilities Privacy and Security Act, or HB2, states that in public buildings, a person must use the restroom that corresponds with the biological sex listed on his or her birth certificate.” From one simple law, many people are affected; some for the benefit and others with disadvantage.

When Grete views the slimes left behind, she believes that Gregor would love to have more space, so she quickly gets her mother to help move the furniture out the room.
