I can't believe that after everything that has happened Dimmeadale died. I wish that everything just could've worked out and Hester, Pearl and Dimmesdale could live a happy life together. Hester was a wonderful person all in all, dedicating time to make other people's lives better. It makes me feel better that Pearl kissed Dimmesdale as he fell to his death because she was not angry about it and she accepted that he was her father. I hope that people in the community have learned their lesson on judging people as bad humans if they have committed adultery, and hopefully people will stop being so cruel and realize that everything Chillingsworth did was wrong and ultimately caused a death. I, as a villager have learned a lot from experiencing this, and I will change my outlook on people.

Thank you for not saying what terrible people Hester and Dimmesdale are. They were trying to be great parents but Chillingworth got in the way by killing Dimmesdale. Chillingworth got what he deserved when he died.

I agree that Hester was overall a wonderful person, I also wish her and her family could have worked out in the end. In the end though I believe it's Dimmesdale's guilt that killed him not Chillingsworth. Although he did help, Dimmesdale decided to commit his sin and therefore its his own heart and guilt that killed him. As hard as that is to say.. Guilt in the end seemed to conquer his soul.

I also agree that Hester was a wonderful person. I loved how she raised Pearl by herself and did amazing, and that she always made sure that she helped making people's life great. It is tragic that Dimmesdale died and didn't get to spend the rest of his life with his family. I'm glad he did get to realize that Pearl didn't hate him, but that she did love him. I am guilty and was one of those people who judge Hester and her sin very poorly, but I most definitely won't do it again.

When Dimmesdale died I was truly surprised. Just like you said he could have lived a happy life with Hester and Pearl. But, because of his own guilt and Chillingworth, he was not able to truly be happy with Hester. Hester on the other hand was once again alone with no one to love but Pearl. I agree with you and hope that the people of Boston will stop being so cruel and start being more forgiving.
