In the passage “ The Man In The Well” what does the narrator’s statement "i think its important that we decided not to help him" reveal?

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?

answer: dinner and a movie with your friends this saturday night.

opportunity cost refers to the benefits that a person or business misses out on when choosing one alternative over another. opportunity costs are easy to miss, but they can be important for decision-making. in this example, the alternative that the person will miss out on is the opportunity to have dinner and watch a movie with friends on saturday, as he will have no money left after buying the cd.
