Mary Ann Evans was born in 1819 in England..At that time there were gaps between the classes. She wanted to make a change, but at the time, women were not taken seriously. Mary Ann wrote poems under the male pen name George Eliot.
The information added to my understanding of the poem because Mary Ann wanted to make a change in society but she couldn't do it just because she was a woman. She had to change her name so that people would read her poems. She inserted in her poems the message she wanted to convey. When people read her poems, they began to internalize the message little by little.
"Count That Day Lost" is about how to spend your day correctly. George Eliot claims that if you helped or did something nice for someone, or even made someone happy, you may count that day as well spent. Mary Ann has done something important in her life - she made people listen to her voice and in that way, she made a big change and improved the society.
In conclusion, Mary Ann was raised at an age when women were not taken seriously. However, she still made a change at the time with her poems.
