Something to remember for Thanksgiving, Mary Schmich

Grateful, "We don't have money. But we are not poor. Poverty is a state of money." this is to make us feel grateful for what we have. To be thankful for everything you have and that you probably have a pretty awesome life. The purpose of the column was to make people think and reflect on their life "This week begins the official giving season, a season that also comes with wishing, expecting." the author uses the words "bankrupt" and "broke" to make the reader think of how bad it must be for them. It is telling us that we need to be thankful for what we have to work together to help others in need. And to spread kindness to everyone.

             So, I am still reading this book Speak but, I am close to the end. I really do like this book but, it was not my favorite book that I have ever read - understandable right? If you read my other blog post about this book you would know mainly what the books about and how I feel about it and why people should read it. If not, Speak is about this teenage girl going into her Freshman year of high school and she is struggling to reach the end of it - relatable to pretty much all of us right now, correct? Anyways, this girl is having a hard time fitting in and she lost her main group of friends so now she is by herself well accept for a girl from Ohio. Anyways I'm not going to say much more about it because I want people to read it for themselves. So now that I am pretty much done with that book, I need a new to read for the last book for English 1. If anyone has any ideas of books that you think are good or that I might like please let me know because; I. Am. Lost.
