Narrative

As I sipped my coffee, I couldn't help, but think,' Lorelai Gilmore would love this coffee'. I could see her across the diner. She sat at her normal table with Rory, and they chatted away about frivolous things.

Luke has just spotted Lorelai and was headed to her table to pour her her third cup of coffee for the morning.

Just as the coffee was flowing from the pot to her cup, my food arrived in front of me. The smell of pancakes took me back to Lorelai and Rory sitting in the diner. Luke was having an off-week and had burnt Rory's pancakes. Lorelai jumped out of her seat and followed Luke behind the counter. Luke turned and scowled at Lorelai just as the waitress brought me my bill. Seeing the waitress got me thinking about how Lane used to be a waitress at Luke's.

Description

Lorelai could smell the coffee as she entered the diner. The hustle and bustle of the customers kept Luke busy, but he finally noticed Lorelai and made his way to her table with a piping hot cup of coffee. Her eyes light up as he poured the steaming coffee into her empty mug. As she took her first sip, she knew her morning had begun.

Lorelai rifled through her purse to find some cash as she trudged up to the counter. She tossed Luke some crumpled up dollars bills and turned to leave the diner.

When Lorelai pushed the door open, the rush of the autumn breeze embraced her skin. Goose bumps went shot up her spine as she spotted a familiar face. Lorelai threw her arms around Rory and the two shared a warm, and much needed hug.

Lorelai and her daughter walked in sync down the hard, stone paved roads as the crisp, cool air played with their hair from under their comfy, yarn beanies.

Cause and Effect

Lorelai Gilmore had her daughter Rory at a very young age.

This accidental pregnancy could have been a result of two irresponsible teenagers having unprotected sex, or maybe Lorelai got pregnant on purpose as an act of rebellion towards her parents. A third cause of this pregnancy could have been that maybe Lorelai wanted to get pregnant.

Whatever the cause of this pregnancy was, it lead to the birth of Lorelai's daughter, Rory.

When Lorelai's parents found out about their daughter's pregnancy, Emily and Richard Gilmore were outraged.

This pregnancy also lead to the end of the relationship between Lorelai and Chris, Rory's father.

The ultimate outcome of this pregnancy was the strengthening of Lorelai's independence.

Advocacy

Generosity stems from a selflessness that allows a person to put others before themselves. Lorelai Gilmore exhibits generosity.

When Rory's friend Lane needed a place to stay after Lane's mother kicked her out of her house, Lorelai welcomed Lane into Lorelai's own house and allowed Lane to stay with her. Lorelai didn't collect rent from Lane, and allowed Lane to stay for as long as she needed.

Another instance in which Lorelai showed her generosity was when Luke's nephew, Jess, needed a job. Despite the fact that Lorelai didn't care too much for Jess, Lorelai still found odd jobs around her house that Jess could do for a little bit of money.

When Rory needed money to go to Yale, Lorelai was willing to give up her lifelong dream of owning her own inn so that her daughter could go to one of the best colleges.

Lorelai Gilmore was a generous woman.
